Revenge After rebirth novel Chapter 26

Gordon overheard their conversation. He ignored Emily and chased after Mayra.

He kept following her as she lined up at the cafeteria. When she started eating, he sat nearby and waited for her to be done. After the meal, he continued following her.

To avoid Gordon, Mayra purposefully discussed the math exam questions with the student walking in front of her. He didn't have a chance to talk with her, so he had no choice but to watch her leave.

Entering the classroom, she noticed Emily secretly munching on some snacks and reading a romance novel while hiding behind a physics textbook.

Mayra sat down quietly and opened her book to preview the content of the next lesson.

Emily approached her and said, "Mayra, why are you so hardworking? Compared to you, I feel like a waste. If Gordon can't tutor me, how about you help me? I can pay you for tutoring.

"If it's too troublesome, you can bring me along when you and Gordon go to the library next time. We're long-term deskmates, after all. Please help me."

She had been Emily's deskmate for almost half a year. She wondered how Emily had kept her affections hidden for so long as she had no idea Emily had always liked Gordon.

Emily was from a working-class family. Her father worked as a train conductor. It was a position few people could obtain, despite many others desiring it.

On the other hand, her mother worked as a teacher at a prestigious school. So, she didn't need to work part-time at the barbeque stall where Gordon worked. Even a fool could figure out what she was after.

Apart from her feelings for Gordon, she wasn't a bad person. Mayra would usually help her when she couldn't answer the questions during class.

Mayra remained calm and responded, "Ask him yourself."

"Do you dislike me for bothering you two? Is that why you don't want me to get in touch with Gordon? Mayra, we're friends. I just want to improve my grades. I swear I don't have any other ideas!"

Emily made an unpleasant gesture. Mayra glanced at her expressionlessly.
