All Chapters of Love Against All Rules : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Garvin’s pov The next morning After a long weekend, it's finally Monday morning. I woke up slowly as though l was dragged by something heavy.. After a long night of thoughts, my whole body felt unfamiliar with me, sleep was meant to make me feel better, rather it felt differently as though it added more wounds qto every part of my body. I moved my legs slightly as l tried to get up from the bed.. I needed to get prepared for school. The mid-term break is finally over, which means school activities began today, and nobody is allowed to miss classes as this was exam week… And lectures would give out areas of concentration for the exams.I took out my phone from the bed drawers to see if there was an unknown message or call… honestly l have quietly hoped to get a message from them, so as to deal with it once and for all. But still, none was delivered to me, which got me more confused and sad. And for a moment I thought maybe I'm the one overthinking things. Perhaps Liam was right

Garvin’s pov I just hope it wasn't the actual Jackie, l didn’t need to worry too much about that there is no way she could be the one. Still in my thoughts, when a loud scream from the class jerked me back to reality. “What.. What's going on?” l asked Mia, who looked so surprised and happy at the same time. “Earth to wherever your thoughts were, He said our vocational training begins tomorrow morning,” she announced. “Tomorrow what?” l repeated. “Yeah, that is what your lecturer said,” she responded. How could they announce this today and expect us to get ready within how many hours of time?! “Your accommodations number and the rest of the information will be sent to your email… Do well to check them, and have a good night's rest, for tomorrow is going to be a long day,” One of the lecturers informed. This is so ridiculous! Do these people even consider us before making this decision?“And you have to take this seriously, as it is your exam. Your level of seriousness will det

Garvin’s pov I sat still on the chair, tapping my left foot on the ground, my gaze directly fixed straight to his eyes, as though l was searching for the pettiest expression that could give him away, or give a hint of what is going through his mind. But then, l couldn't catch a glimpse of any… His face was evenly composed, his legs crossed amongst each other, the way he sat as though he indeed got everything under control. He seemed smarter and far more cunning than I expected.I straightened up myself, pressed back against the chair, my gaze still remained on him. “What do you intend on doing?” I asked gently, clearing my dry throat. A quiet smirk danced across his face, hiding more than it revealed. “lf you don't have a problem with it… I suggest we do it my way,” he whispered, pausing deliberately, as though he was letting his words sink into my ears. I let out a chuckle. Why does it have to be his way? My instincts were right.. I knew he was up to something… now he wanted us

Garvin’s pov “Yes, I need to step up my game.” l mumbled to myself. “Step up your game?” Mia repeated, as she raised up her brow in confusion. Dammit! I forgot that the call hasn't ended. “Ohh.. That's not what l meant to say,” l muttered, hoping she doesn't press further.“You must be hallucinating.. You need to get here before the old man arrives,” she muttered. “Are you at the campus already?” l asked. “Certainly, I arrived thirty minutes ago,” she responded. “Just so you know the boss would leave by 10.30am or let say immediately Mr. Arrington gets here.”“l guess, you should know what l mean by that,” she added. And of course, I know what that meant.. It is either I get there before him or get there late and miss the trip. Who knows what he would do this time around, if mistakenly l got there after him. “Sheesh, I got to go now… see you at the campus,” l spoke in haste, hanging up the call. Knowing that Mr. Arrington is in charge of this, it's enough to trigger my panic

Garvin’s pov Why on earth is Jackie here? I muttered under my breath. “Isn't she the Jackie you are to pair with?” Her voice low and steady. “No way.. that can't be,” l snapped out. “Yes way, and that is happening now,” Mia added. What the hell is going on? I never knew Jackie and l are of the same grade, or even same field area… but why the hell does she of all people have to be my partner. “Let me guess, you're surprised to see me, right?” she giggled as she closed the distance between us. “I'm as surprised as hell… l didn’t see this coming and besides you didn't mention this to me,” l nagged indirectly. She chuckled. “How was l supposed to tell you, when we never spoke about us.. And that wasn't part of the deal,” she replied sharply, as she stared at Mia. “Hey, I'm Jackie.. Your best friend's girlfriend,” she bantered. “Fake girlfriend I presume… Mia by the name,” Mia returned curtly. “lndeed,you guys had a discussion about me already.. I guess I'm quite popular,” sh
