Chapter 44 The Wife Behaves Strangely Around Us

• ‘Impossible! Though Snow believed that it was impossible, she still looked at Nicole with worry-filled eyes after some time. “Then, is Cain really in the hospital now?” Even though Snow did not ask Nicole aloud, “Did you beat him?” That question was already written on her face. Nicole looked at Snow’s odd expression coldly. Nieole had already finished her food when Snow was in a daze, so she did not want to stay and continue being pretentious with Snow. ”Didn’t I say you should ask him instead? I’m done eating, so I’ll be leaving now.” Nicole then stood up and walked away as Snow watched her leave. Snow’s eyes widened all of a sudden. ‘Who on earth is Nicole? How did she defeat that evil Cain?!’ Nicole left the cafeteria and thought about what Ms. Emerson had said in the morning. She asked Nicole to attend the Math Olympiad training classes every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday afternoon.
• It was Tuesday today, so Nicole turned and walked toward the lecture hall. Gary, who had also walked out of the cafeteria after finishing his meal, looked at Nicole’s carefree figure and squinted slightly. He had already seen the whole incident where Nicole sat together with Snow. In other words, he had also seen Snow’s mouth agape after Nicole left. It made him even more curious about the conversation between the two girls. Gary could not help but smile when he saw Nicole looking like nothing had happened. He walked slowly behind her at her pace, constantly leaving a short distance between them. When he saw the lecture hall in front of them, he hurried his steps as he walked into the class with Nicole. Raine was sitting in the class when she saw Gary walking in, and a surprise grew on her face. But her expression immediately turned sour as she saw Nicole walking in with Gary not long after. She asked Nicole while keeping her jealousy under control. “Why are you here, Nicole? This class is exclusively for students joining the Math Olympiad competition.”
• Nicole looked at her indifferently, not uttering a word. Gary replied to Raine instead, “We are joining the competition on behalf of our class, so our teacher told us to come together.” Raine looked at them doubtfully as she sharply sensed that Gary was being protective by listening to what he had said, so her gaze toward Nicole turned more hostile. Nicole glanced over at Gary indifferently after listening to his reply. She was already aware of Gary following her from behind, but she did not bother to do anything about it as he had kept to himself. Now that he mentioned that Ms. Emerson asked them to attend the class together, there was no need for Nicole to expose him either. Nicole started walking and headed toward the last row of seats. Raine saw Nicole walking further, so she started a conversation with Gary. But Raine noticed Gary’s eyes following Nicole closely.
