Chapter 25 Just Wait And See

• Derek returned to class. He was shocked at the door by the scene in front of him. He narrowed his eyes, looking Grey up and down with vigilance. “What are you doing here again?” Derek saw Valerie standing in front of Mica, holding a chair. Was Valerie ready to fight? “Why do you come here so many times? If you find trouble with my classmates again, you’ll regret it.” This was Derek’s ultimatum. Grey’s anger was gone. He was full of deep fear. “Let’s go!” Grey glanced at Mica. Then he left the classroom with his followers, flustered and frustrated. At that time, the bell rang.
• The teacher walked slowly into the classroom. Valerie let go of Mica’s arm and walked back to her seat. “Valerie…” Mica swallowed back his thanks. He turned back and listened to the class. Mica turned to look at Valerie from time to time. He grabbed the pen with both hands, trying to calm down his heartbeat. His mind was full of Valerie’s brave actions. His heart beats fast. Mica reached out and pressed his chest. His neck was flushed. It was time to eat lunch. Valerie sorted out her books and planned to go to the canteen.
• “Wait. Valerie!” Mica came to Valerie with a red face. “What’s wrong?” “Well, well, thank you! Thank you for helping me today. In return, I want to invite you to lunch.” Looking at Mica, Valerie frowned slightly. “Do you still have money? Didn’t they take it away?” “I have some money left.” Valerie didn’t agree. “Never mind. You can invite me later, when you have enough money. Anyway, I will be at this school for several years.” Hearing Valerie’s refusal, Mica was disappointed. Most of the class didn’t leave. Everyone pushed around and wanted to come forward to talk to Valerie.
