Chapter 49 The Apology
Everyone stared at Charlotte and waited for Nicholas's next step to ask her to get out of Srolanya High School. After all, everyone in Srolanya High School knew that Nicholas's temper was horrible.
But surprisingly, Nicholas just squinted his eyes when he heard Charlotte's stammering voice, and asked in a calm voice, "What's your name?"
Charlotte told him her name.
Nicholas suddenly smiled, grabbed the back of Charlotte's neck, and pulled her over to him. He smiled and said, "Charlotte, are you willing to sit next to me?"
Charlotte was surprised, "Huh?"
Everyone was in shock.
They thought to themselves, "What? Shouldn't you kick her out of the school now? Why are you making such a strange invitation? Wake up!"
But obviously, Nicholas wasn't in the right mind at all. He looked at Charlotte, who seemed to be in a daze and he pulled the thick black-rimmed glasses on her nose with great interest. He asked, "You aren't short-sighted. What do you wear glasses for?"
Charlotte was at a loss, "How... How do you know that I'm not short-sighted?"
Nicholas didn't reply to her but smiled. His expression brightened up, as if the person who was with a gloomy face and wanted to kill someone just now, wasn't him at all.
Reagan was confused with the development of the incident. She boldly said, "Nicholas... Charlotte is an illegitimate child!"
Nicholas glanced at her, and Reagan became silent instantly.
Then, Nicholas smiled gently and said, "What's wrong with an illegitimate child? It's not that she wants to be an illegitimate child."
He put his arm on Charlotte's shoulder and asked, "Isn't it, new classmate?"
If Charlotte heard that earlier, she must be touched. But now... There was an indescribably weird feeling.
The handsome young man in front of her seemed to have put on a guise. He looked smiley, but there was monstrous darkness in his heart.
That made her scared.
Seeing that Charlotte didn't speak, Nicholas frowned and pinched her cheek, "Are you a mute?"
Charlotte responded, "It... It hurts."
Then, Nicholas laughed again and said, "Be my desk mate. You can see that everyone excludes me, and no one wants to sit with me. I'm lonely."
Everyone was speechless and thought to themself, "Nicholas, what the fuck are you talking about? You are the one who wants to sit alone!"
But no one dared to say that.
Charlotte glanced at Eloise subconsciously, and Eloise shook her head desperately at her. Then, Nicholas asked with a smile, "Eloise, is there something wrong with your neck? Why are you keep shaking it back and forth?"
Eloise didn't know what to say. She reluctantly put a smile on her face and replied, "I... I just simply shake it."
Nicholas still looked at her with a smile.
Eloise thought to herself, "Char, it's not that I'm not loyal to you as a friend, but Nicholas is a pervert. There's nothing I can do about it!"
After that, she put all the books that Charlotte hadn't had time to tidy up on the desk next to Nicholas while saying, "Char, you should be caring for the classmate without friends! Nicholas has never had a deskmate! He is such a poor thing!"
Charlotte didn't look convinced and asked, " Is... Is it?"
"Yes. Yes." Eloise said against her will, "You have to help Nicholas with his homework!"
Charlotte was speechless.
Nicholas pulled Charlotte over and said, "Come here. Sit down."
A few girls headed by Reagan returned to their senses from being shocked and winked at each other. Then, Reagan said in a low voice, "Nicholas, what are you trying to do?"
