Chapter 95 It Means You're as Adorable as an Apple
Charlotte's face was rubbed for several minutes before she finally regained consciousness. She felt someone pinching her cheeks repeatedly, so she instinctively slapped the person. "...This is so annoying."
Nelson, who received the slap, was rendered speechless.
Having witnessed the entire incident of Mr. Clark being slapped, Waylon suddenly felt that his life was nearing its end.
Nelson pressed his tongue against his teeth and let out a chuckle. "You're getting bolder by the day."
However, Charlotte had just woken up and didn't know what she had done. She rubbed her hair and crawled out of Nelson's embrace. The next instant, she lifted the covers and went to the restroom with her eyes half open.
Waylon was a little worried. "Mr. Clark, Ms. Lopez doesn't seem fully awake. What if she falls?"
Nelson's gaze turned cold and sharp as he retorted, "She's my woman. Why do you care so much?"
Waylon exclaimed inwardly, "What a misunderstanding! This is so infuriating, but I still have to keep smiling!"
He put on a fake smile and said, "Mr. Clark, I like slim waists and long legs..."
As Nelson stood up and straightened Charlotte's disheveled clothes, he replied, "I got it. You don't have to remind me to send you women. I remember."
Waylon thought to himself, "Did he fucking think I was reminding him about that?"
However, Nelson had already followed Charlotte into the restroom.
When Charlotte entered the classroom, she was still in a groggy state. Perhaps it was because her cold hadn't fully recovered that she felt dizzy and heavy-headed. Before she left home, Waylon handed her a can of herbal tea that clears the mind and brightens the vision. It tasted quite good. After taking a few sips, Charlotte felt somewhat better.
Eloise turned around and rested on Charlotte's desk. She said excitedly, "Do you know? The entire group of people from Roblia High School ended up in a drug rehabilitation center!"
It was expected, so Charlotte wasn't surprised and just asked, "Were they expelled?"
In fact, Eloise wasn't a pure and innocent girl. She showed no sympathy for Vincent at all. She gleefully exclaimed, "Because the others were tricked by Vincent, the school handled their cases leniently. Those students' families paid some money, and no one was expelled except for Vincent. Do you know what's the funniest part?" Eloise clicked her tongue and continued, "When the other families found out about their kids' involvement in this mess, despite being heartbroken, they cooperated and sent them to rehab. However, Vincent's family refused and made a big fuss. Since the incident became public and couldn't be resolved privately, Vincent had to go in anyway."
Charlotte took out the books from her backpack one by one and said calmly, "Once he's out, he will still go back to using drugs."
"Although I also think so, why are you so sure, Char?" Eloise asked.
Charlotte remarked, "This isn't his first time using drugs. If he shows a similar state to other teammates after consuming a significant amount of amphetamine, it indicates that he had prior exposure to these substances and has developed some tolerance. Considering his family's negligence, relapse is certain to occur."
Eloise let out a sigh. "That's the thing. People often bring destruction upon themselves."
However, her contemplation didn't last long, and she swiftly changed the subject. "By the way, Char, you're really popular now. Everyone thinks you're incredibly charming."
Charlotte looked puzzled. "Why?"
Eloise showed her a few popular posts from the campus forum and said, "See for yourself."
Charlotte glanced through two threads and blushed. "It's not as amazing as they claim. I was just speaking the truth."
"You were so 'A' when you confronted Vincent about his drug addiction!" Eloise said.
