Seeing that Nicole was in danger, Bradley pushed her subconsciously, “Run!”Then, he gritted his teeth and rushed forward to defend Nicole. He had the urge to snatch away that man’s wooden stick.However, his thin and small body did not help at all. Instead, he was sent flying with just one kick from the other party.“Where did this nerd come from? Get out! Don’t get in the way of my business!”Jack, Wayne, and Gary happened to witness everything from afar. Jack exclaimed, “Isn’t that Cain Fletcher from Northon Institute next door? Didn’t he get a beating from Gary and beg for mercy? How dare he appear at our school?”“Gary, look! The person surrounded by Cain’s men, isn’t that Nicole?”Gary saw it too. He looked at Cain with eyes full of annoyance.The Royal Creek Institute’s high school department was Gary’s territory. It was as if Cain did not receive enough beating previously that he dared to mess with Gary’s territory.Wayne, on the other hand, although he never liked Nico
Wayne could not help but exclaim, “Nicole is so OP! Is she even a human?”There were also mixed feelings in Jack’s eyes. He casually asked, “Gary, even you could not defeat Nicole, right? No wonder she said she didn't need your protection. She’s actually this tough!”They did not receive any response from Gary, so they turned to look at him. Gary, who was usually insouciant, was frozen with his gaze fixated on Nicole. It was as if he was stunned by her.Jack was startled for a moment. Then, he teased Gary. “Gary, are you fascinated by her?”It was only then Gary came to his senses. Although he heard what Jack said, he did not bother to refute him.It seemed like Nicole did not need his help at all. At the thought of this, Gary’s eyes tainted with ambivalence. He turned around and spoke to the two of them, “Let’s go!”Nicole did not notice the three of them leaving. She was looking down at those thugs with furrowed brows.'These boys are so incompetent. They are far inferior to t
Spencer and Stanley nodded with serious looks on their faces. The thought of Cain causing a ruckus in Royal Creek Institute angered them.Luckily, Nicole was skillful enough to escape from them.Nicole’s explanation was brief, so they eventually thought that Nicole and Bradley had to go through many hurdles to escape.Looking at them, Nicole could not help but let out a smile. She was touched by them.At that moment, the meal was served. Gloria looked at Nicole. “You must’ve used up all your energy already. Didn’t you say you were hungry? Hurry, eat up,” she said gently.Nicole nodded and picked up her spoon to help herself with the steamed fish in front of her.Upon seeing this, Gloria laughed and spoke to Daniel, “Nicole is just like you. She likes fish too.”Daniel looked at her and smiled.Just like that, everyone was happily sitting around the table for a meal as one big family. The past two days, Norah had been hanging out with Celia and the rest with the excuse of being
That morning was the day when Samuel understood Nicole’s ability. Even a basketball player who had been going for daily morning runs like him could not catch up with her. He exclaimed at the level of her running speed.Spencer continued to sneer, “I don’t mind trying. I’m definitely better than you!”Seeing that the two brothers are about to get into a fight, Stanley said, “Enough! Nicole is still waiting for us to begin the meal. Aren’t we sending her off to school today? We’ll have to leave earlier.”As soon as Samuel and Spencer heard this, they stopped arguing and sat down to eat.Norah felt jealous that Nicole received so much attention for just staying in school.In Norah's eyes, Nicole did not pester to go to school for her grades but to spend more time with the brothers and take away all the love and attention from Norah.The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Norah could not help but say, “Mom, all of them are staying on campus. I’m left alone at home. I wan
“Could she be a heroine from a hidden world like in those action movies?”“Nicole is so much more skillful than those heroines.”Once the conversation was heated, their voice became louder and louder that others in the class were looking at them.Nicole frowned a little. “Fighting isn’t something to be proud of. Let’s keep it low.”Bradley and Lulu realized that they were a little too loud. Just as Nicole said, fighting was not a thing to be proud of. If a teacher overheard it, they would be in trouble.The both of them nodded and pretended to zip their mouths, signaling that they would not talk about it anymore.When Nicole saw that the two were so sensible, her expression relaxed a little. Just as she was about to speak, a loud voice came from outside. Then, Austin suddenly stormed into the class.The whole class was terrified of his ferocious look.Once Austin saw Nicole, he walked over while yelling.“Boss! I heard that the hooligans from next door, Cain disturbed you yest
Therefore, no one was surprised when Ms. Emerson mentioned Gary's name.The monthly test was just around the corner, and suddenly there was a Maths Olympiad. The students all stared at each other, worrying that it would affect their test revisions, and they did not want to participate.Compared to a Maths Olympiad, which they could not win, they would rather place their time and effort in their revisions.Ms. Emerson's face did not look good when she saw that no one had raised their hands. She had already said that the district was taking this competition seriously. She did not expect the students to be this indolent.She scanned through the class. Everyone in the class was looking down, except for Nicole, who was still looking at her calmly.Ms. Emerson’s eyes lit up. She recalled that in Nicole’s profile, it was written that she had participated in a Maths Olympiad before. She could not help but ask, “Nicole, you’ve participated in a Maths Olympiad in your previous school, right
Previously, it was viral on the internet that the new transfer student, Nicole, was prettier than the current campus queen, Snow, by a hundred-fold.Snow did not show it on her face, but she secretly tore apart a book in her hands. It was already a shame for her to be placed next to Raine for campus queen. Now that Nicole has stepped into the picture, her title of campus queen was in danger!Snow glanced at Jack and noticed that the boys were from Gary’s clique. She dared not to mess with the Finleys. So, she could only put up with everything in silence.Unless...While Snow thought of something, her eyes gleamed with a satisfactory smile.If that person was present, these people’s mockery would just be a minute thing.Nicole did not bother about others’ comments. She looked at Snow and asked, “Why are you suddenly inviting me for lunch?”She had witnessed Snow and Raine’s loudmouth. Snow did not seem like one who would simply invite others for a meal.Snow smiled and replied,
'Impossible!'Though Snow believed that it was impossible, she still looked at Nicole with worry-filled eyes after some time. "Then, is Cain really in the hospital now?"Even though Snow did not ask Nicole aloud, "Did you beat him?" That question was already written on her face.Nicole looked at Snow's odd expression coldly. Nicole had already finished her food when Snow was in a daze, so she did not want to stay and continue being pretentious with Snow. "Didn't I say you should ask him instead? I'm done eating, so I'll be leaving now."Nicole then stood up and walked away as Snow watched her leave. Snow's eyes widened all of a sudden.'Who on earth is Nicole? How did she defeat that evil Cain?!'Nicole left the cafeteria and thought about what Ms. Emerson had said in the morning. She asked Nicole to attend the Maths Olympiad training classes every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday afternoon. It was Tuesday today, so Nicole turned and walked toward the lecture hall.Gary, who had al
