Chapter 34 The Wife Behaves Strangely Around Us
- Celia was also stunned as she looked at Norah, dumbfounded. “Hey, what’s going on here? Why did Austin address that country bumpkin as his boss?” “I-I have no idea too.” Nicole thought, ‘Nicole was telling the truth! Everything she said was real?!’ The Woods family was a powerful and rich family in Northon, so Austin had been at the top of the pyramid in school for the past few years. He did not even back down when fighting the Finley brothers. But now he bowed to a country bumpkin?! Norah could not help to be suspicious of Nicole’s real identity. Everyone was in shock as well, but Nicole remained expressionless. She casually glanced at Austin and returned her gaze to the long queue at the window. Austin beamed the moment he saw her looking at him. “You must be hungry, Boss! i’ll get someone to bring you food!” Austin volunteered himself. That was when Nicole finally looked at him directly. “It’s okay.” She sounded indifferent. But Austin was already calling over his subordinate to get the best ribs in the cafeteria.
- He then happily went over and lined up to get Nicole some soup. Nicole did not reject him as she saw how determined he was. She then turned to find herself a seat and sat down. After all, she really did not like queueing up. Everyone looked as if they had seen a ghost when Nicole sat down, walking away with their plates hurriedly. ‘Oh man, even Austin is calling her boss. How powerful is she?!’ They dared not to offend her. When Nicole saw Austin lining up without bullying anyone, her gaze was not as cold anymore. Austin was a tyrant in school. When had he ever lined up for food? At that moment, Austin was squeezing between the crowd for Nicole. It was so hot he was sweating like a pig When he turned back and saw Nicole’s gaze turn slightly warm, he was elated. He did not bother how sweaty he was and continued to line up to get Nicole some food. Everyone saw this bizarre scene.
- They were stupefied upon seeing Austin working himself to the bones to impress Nicole. Coincidentally, Gary and Raine went to the cafeteria for lunch as well. When they walked into the cafeteria and saw how Austin was treating Nicole, they were dumbfounded too. After Nicole rejected Austin, Raine thought Austin would harm Nicole out of anger and embarrassment. Raine did not expect Austin would ignore her, the beauty queen in school, and beg to be Nicole’s follower instead. He had even made a big scene. How embarrassing! Jealousy flashed in Raine’s eyes as she said sarcastically, “Nicole is from your class, right? She has only been here for a few days, and she’s already acting like she’s all that. Who knows what she’d become in the future?!” Little did she know that Nicole had rejected Gary’s offer to protect Nicole. Otherwise, she would be infuriated. Raine’s remark did not get a response, so she wondered why and turned around. She noticed Gary staring at Nicole, who was not far from them. His eyes were intrigued.
