Chapter 64 It's the Earth, Not the Hell

Cecilia took out her phone and requested, "Add me as your friend and send me the video."

Charlotte mumbled an "Okay". She added Cecilia and sent her the video. Cecilia tsked, "Why are you using such an obsoleted phone?"

Charlotte pressed her lips and replied, "My family gave it to me."

Cecilia said, "Hey, you can afford clothes costing at least one hundred thousand but you can't afford a new phone? How about this? To express my gratitude, I will take you out to buy a new phone the other day."

At the mention of this, she snorted childishly and continued, "But remember it, Charlotte Lopez, don't think that I'll stop loathing you just because you helped me once. That's your wish. I still don't like you."

Charlotte was rendered speechless.

She smiled helplessly and said, "Well. I didn't expect that."

Cecilia raised her brows angrily and questioned, "What did you mean? You don't like me?"

Charlotte was lost for words again.

This girl was way too hard to deal with.

Cecilia bit her bottom lip and her cheeks weirdly turned red. Then she stammered, "Than-Thank you for your help today. If not for you, I would have fallen into that bitch's trap again."

Charlotte shook her head while replying, "It's nothing."

Cecilia thought of something and reminded, "You should be careful these days. That bitch has many filthy tricks. I'm afraid that she'll hold grudges toward you and seek trouble for you."

Charlotte was a bit dumbfounded. Then she immediately replied, "It doesn't matter. I will go home right after school."

Cecilia twitched her lips and commented, "Such a good student."

She stood up and reached out toward Charlotte, saying, "Get up."

Charlotte felt amused. Cecilia said she disliked her just now...

She put her hand into Cecilia's palm and stood up. Cecilia asked with a frown, "Why is your hand so soft?"

Charlotte answered, "I don't know either."

Cecilia clicked her tongue, turned around, and walked toward the classroom.

Charlotte jotted to catch up with her and asked, "Aren't you going to treat your swollen cheek?"

Cecilia asked, feeling her question weird, "Why should I treat it? I will show this to my father and complain about them. Since Daisy had the guts to set me up, I must seek revenge openly."

Charlotte replied, "Well."

They went back to the classroom one by one, which shocked the other classmates. Charlotte still ignored this and walked back to her desk. Eloise looked at her anxiously and asked, "Char, are you Okay? I couldn't find you after going back from the shop and you didn't answer my calls. Your phone was turned off!"

"What?" Charlotte checked her phone and said, "Probably there were some problems with it just now. I'm fine."

Eloise finally heaved a sigh of relief.

There suddenly came the sounds of something hitting the desk, which bewildered all the students in the classroom. Charlotte looked up, only to find Cecilia standing on the platform with a set square. She demanded, "Everyone be quiet!"

The classroom was immediately prevailed by dead silence.

Cecilia knocked on the desk with the set square and said, "I will announce one thing here." She slightly looked down and continued, "From this moment onward, those who making things hard for Charlotte will also be my enemies. Don't blame me for disregarding our friendship then."

After finishing the words, she tossed the set square aside, walked down the platform, and stepped back to her desk, her ears bright red.

Charlotte pondered about it and thought maybe Cecilia was getting shy.

Cecilia's words caused a commotion. After all, she detested Charlotte to the core yesterday. But what was wrong with her today?

Some of the students knew what had happened in the orchard today and began to whisper to each other. Soon, all the students in the class learned the truth.

Those students who tended to appreciate the positive sides of things were surprised by this illegitimate daughter's sense of justice.

While those who tended to take the dark side commented inwardly: This illegitimate daughter is so scheming. Could it be that she had partnered up with Daisy to win Cecilia's trust?

Reagan was the most shocked one. She stared at Vivian in disbelief and asked, "Is Cecilia crazy? What did she say just now?"

Vivian also felt distraught. She forced a smile and said awkwardly, "Maybe something happened."

Reagan continued, "Cecilia hates illegitimate daughters the most. How would she put in good words for that bitch?"

Vivian comforted her, "Reagan, don't think too much about it. It's a good thing that Cecilia stops targeting Charlotte. Don't get angry."

Reagan replied, "No way. I must ask Cecilia about this after the class."

...

Eloise exclaimed and asked, "Char, what did you do that Cecilia's attitude toward you made a sharp turn all of a sudden?"

Nicholas was spinning his pen in boredom. The long pen was spun at a high speed between her slender things and it was such a beautiful scene. He asked, "Did you save her father?'

Charlotte was amused. She chuckled and answered, "How could it be possible?'

She then told them about Daisy's scheme. Eloise had a moment of enlightenment and remarked, "No wonder. Although I don't like Cecilia, I feel disgusted with Daisy!"

Charlotte grumbled a "yep" and continued softly, "If that's not the case, I wouldn't have sought trouble for myself."

The teacher walked into the classroom with some books and the students immediately quieted down. Charlotte also withdrew her attention and focused on the class.

When school was over, Charlotte tidied up her schoolbag. Nicholas, who had been sleeping beside her, also woke up. He lazily tugged at the strap of her schoolbag and asked, "Are you going back?"

Charlotte nodded with a good temper.

Nicholas chucked and pulled at her hair. He didn't use too much strength, so Charlotte didn't feel it hurt at all. Then he left with his single-shoulder bag.

Eloise said smilingly, "You and Nicholas get along well."

Charlotte replied, "He's very kind." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Eloise was rendered speechless.

She thought to herself, "Girl, if these words spread out, half of the students in Srolanya High School will line up to beat you."

She sighed heaved a sigh with hidden bitterness and said, "Well, let's go.

"Okay." Charlotte carried her schoolbag and suddenly asked, "Was anyone in our class absent today?"

"Yep. But how do you know?" Eloise pointed at a desk and continued, "That position is Andrew's. He's the heartthrob of our school, but he's been absent for two days."

Charlotte didn't look over. She asked, "Why?"

"I don't know either." Eloise shrugged her shoulders.

When they walked to the gate, Charlotte saw the black car again. Eloise exchanged a few words with her cousin Waylon and then got into the car sent by her parents.

Waylon asked like usual, "Ms. Lopez, are you happy today?"

"Yes." Charlotte smiled gently and said, "I'm very happy."

Waylon's mood improved when he saw her smile. He replied, "That's great."

They then returned to the Malus Garden. When Charlotte pushed open the door, she saw Nelson lying on the bed and it seemed like he was sleeping. She tiptoed into the room sneakily, put down her schoolbag, took out her homework books, and began to work on them.

When Nelson woke up, it was almost 7 p.m. Feeling a headache, he struggled to sit up. There was unconcealable ferociousness in his eyes. But he suddenly heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the girl who was sitting on the soft carpet and doing homework with a serious expression.

It was the earth. Not the hell.

He lifted the curtain of the bed and stepped on the carpet barefoot, asking, "Finished?"

Charlotte subconsciously looked up, only to find that this old hooligan didn't wear a top!
