You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 7

Isabella saw Nina sitting in front of her, safe and sound. She couldn't believe her own eyes.

"Nina, you should eat more," Isabella said, smiling awkwardly.

Nina took note of Isabella's facial expression and studied it carefully.

Her psychological training had given her quite the talent for reading people.

Nina put down the spoon, took out the Pheromone Perfume from her bag and put it in front of Isabella.

Isabella's heart skipped a beat and her face seemed to freeze. "What's wrong, Nina? Why did you bring the perfume I gave you?"

'Did Nina figure something out?' she wondered.

'Her jaw is drooping, and her mouth is slightly open.

She is surprised, but more than anything, she is scared.'

After noticing her expression, Nina stared at her quietly and smiled. "Isabella, do you know how much danger this perfume put me in?"

This was almost like a warning for Isabella. Her whole body seemed to crease a little and discomfort crept in.

This was always her subconscious reaction when she wanted to get out of a situation.

"Nina, what are you talking about? I don't understand." Isabella couldn't look Nina in the eye, fearing that her friend would find out the truth.

She took a sip of water to hide her nervousness.

"Isabella, do you know that when someone is lying, their throat dries up?" Nina exposed her without hesitation.

Isabella was slightly annoyed and asked, "Didn't you say that you wouldn't analyze your friends by reading their expressions?"

She narrowed her eyes and stiffened her brow with her muscles tensing up. Her lips were pursed, and the corners of her mouth were dipping into a frown.

She was obviously angry.

Shame only turned into anger when a person was found out.

If they got angry, more often than not, they were in the wrong.

"Isabella, why are you lying? You know how I hate being betrayed." "Nina, let me explain. I didn't think anything of that perfume. I just thought that it smelled good, so I gave it to you. Why would I hurt you? We are such good friends." Tears flooded Isabella's eyes.

Isabella knew Nina well. Nina was always quite arrogant because she knew how beautiful she was. Few girls liked her.

Isabella knew that she was her only friend for that exact reason. Nina couldn't really do anything because she couldn't afford to lose her as a friend.

Besides, there was no evidence that she had something to do with what happened on Friday night.

The more Isabella thought, the more relieved she became. She wiped her tears and explained, "Nina, think about it. If I really did it on purpose, why would I give you the perfume? That's like giving myself up instantly. Nina, trust me. I would never do that to my friend."

That sounded like it made sense.

If Isabella really wanted to be discreet, she should've destroyed the evidence.

Nina's expression softened. They were really good friends at the end of the day anyway.

She couldn't stay mad at Isabella.

"Well, I am okay after all." Nina calmly glossed over the whole affair.

Isabella could finally breathe. She felt so relieved.

At the same time, she was enraged because nothing had happened to Nina.

She had to make sure that she'd make a perfect plan to destroy Nina in the future.

They kept talking and laughing, and then split when they went to their different classes.

Once she was gone, Isabella stopped smiling and looked absolutely livid. After a while, she burst into laughter realizing she just got away with her plan.

As soon as Nina sat down in the classroom she got a notification on her phone.

Her phone rang

and it showed that ten thousand dollars had been transferred to her bank account.

Before she figured out what was going on, Isabella called her.
