Chapter 223 The Wife Behaves Strangely Around Us

• Raine pulled Gary’s sleeve gingerly and whispered, “I don’t want to tidy up the place. Could you take me away? Please, Gary.” She thought, ‘No one will dare say anything if Gary takes me with him.’ However, Gary completely ignored her. He loosened her grip on his sleeve, one finger after another. After taking his bag from his seat, he left the classroom without looking back. ‘Once again, I’ve made a fool of myself for acting smart!’ Gary thought to himself.
• Raine felt so humiliated as she watched Gary leave. This was the first time Gary made her look bad in the public eye. She stood up angrily and wanted to follow Gary. But two voices emerged. “Stop right there!” said Bradley and Jack simultaneously. In surprise, Bradley looked at Jack next to him. He did not expect Jack to be on the same side as him. Raine shot Jack a resentful look, feeling annoyed. “Get out of my way, Jack! I want to follow Gary! If he knows what you’re doing, he’ll make you pay!” Jack did not budge. His eyebrows arched. “I’m afraid Gary will feel indebted to me for what I’m doing.”
• “What are you trying to say?” Raine’s face turned grave. As one of the school tyrants at the Royal Creek Institute, Jack was unafraid of Raine. She was no use to him. Gary, who was trying to be gentle with her initially, said with a stern face, “What am I trying to say? Raine, do you really think things are still the same as before? Don’t make me do this the hard way!” Raine looked at Jack, who was facing her. She felt that his countenance was different from what it had been before and that he had no regard for their “friendship” in the past. If Jack knew what she was thinking, he would laugh aloud.
