Chapter 63

As he spoke, everyone went from laughing at Nicole to speaking out for Gary. Raine felt vindicated to hear these words. The indignation and jealousy she had harbored for the past few days because of Nicole had finally found a venting outlet. This made her feel much better. Listening to others praising her and Gary, Raine turned to Gary and boldly asked, "They all say we are a good match. What do you think?" However, Gary was still looking in Nicole's direction. When he heard that Nicole had scored a zero mark, the first thought that came to mind was, 'I knew it.' But then he was in mixed feelings, worrying that Nicole's feelings would get affected. 'Since when have I become so concerned about what Nicole thought? Apparently, I have always been right about her. Not only did I offer to help her with tuition, but I also admonished her. I had never treated others like this.' Gary did not mind when Nicole rejected his kindness. But what upset him was that she gave him the cold shoulder.
