Chapter 96
The Remorseful Brothers
Chapter 96 On Friday, Madelineâs shadow, Gavin, finally had something else to do.
Madeline didnât ask much. She only knew that he had called someone with a gloomy expression the night before, and it was probably about the organization.
Early in the morning, Madeline went to the classroom.
She settled into her usual seat and opened her notebook, only to discover someone seated beside her.
She didnât even raise her head. âHarper, arenât y it you usually the one to enter the classroom right on time? Itâs quite unusual to see you here early today!â
The person didnât reply.
Madeline looked up in surprise and saw Harper had just arrived.
She was a little annoyed. âHey, the seat beside Maddie is my exclusive seat. Can you move to another seat?â
The boy was dressed in black casual attire, his head adorned with a cap that was pulled low, revealing only half of his unblemished chin.
He raised his slender hand and pushed down on the brim of his cap. âApologies, could you switch seats?â
âIâm sitting here today.â
The boyâs voice was cold and melodious, extremely alienated.
Hearing this, Madeline was slightly stunned.
She immediately recognized that it was Yohannes.
âHe... Why did he come here to sit with me in class?â she mused.
Harper was a little angry. âForget it. You look like a handsome boy, so Iâll give it to you! Youâre lucky that Maddieâs bodyguard is not here today, or you will be in a bad state.â
She snorted and seated herself indignantly on Madelineâs left, across the aisle.
She gazed at Madeline and advised, âMaddie, donât get entangled with random guys from outside. You and Gavin are a couple by choice. I donât want the couple I root for to have an unfortunate outcome.â
The boy reclined against the chair, retrieved a book from his fashionable bag, and placed it on the table.
Then, he took out a pen and a draft.
Madeline glanced at his pale rosy fingers and the pinkâblue hair that framed his translucent cars.
She hesitated, âYou... Are you going to attend the class?â
She didnât flatter herself, thinking that the teenager came for her.
Yohannes modded slightly, took out another script from his bag, and laid it on the table neatly.
There were a few big words on it.
(The Campus Hunk and Me]
Obviously, he came here early to adapt to the campus environment and find inspiration for the new drama Looking at the title of the script, Madeline couldnât help but clench her jaw. Yohannes was very strong in all aspects.
It was just that he didnât seem to be very good at picking out a script.
âAre you shooting at Acocester University?â
âYesâ
Chapter 96 Madeline moved her fingers and asked curiously, âMay I see your script?â
âNo!â
Madeline felt a little regretful. âOuch.â
She looked away and was no longer curious about Yohannes. It was just a coincidence.
This guy was too indifferent to her as if saying more than one word would kill him.
Harper was very dissatisfied with Yohannesâ attitude. âThis man intentionally chose the seat beside you. His motives are evident.
He is brazenly cozying up to you while attempting to maintain a distant attitude. Perhaps itâs because heâs too ugly.
Madeline coughed wildly. âHarper, stop talking nonsense.â
Harper didnât think she was wrong She knew what the man was thinking about without delving too deeply.
She thought, âThere are so many empty seats in the classroom, so why did he have to sit next to Madeline? Humph! He initiates contact and yet has the audacity to appear indifferent toward Maddie. Who knows, he might be obsequious when nobodyâs watching?â Hearing her words, Yohannes subconsciously looked up at her.
At this moment, Harper saw Yohannesâs face clearly, She felt that he was very familiar for a moment, but she couldnât figure out where she had seen him.
The man in front was so extraordinarily handsome that he seemed to have stepped right out of a comic book.
Harper was dumbfounded. She pondered whether she could take back her previous words. She acknowledged that she had indeed. spoken a bit louder just now.
âI was talking nonsense. Yes, I was talking nonsensel Maddieâs still single, and Iâm just a fool who enjoys pairing up random people.â After saying that, Harper blushed and looked away.
She thought âIt would be pretty good if Maddie is with this handsome guy. How could a girl as lovely and intelligent as Maddie limit herself to just one romantic interest? Having more options wouldnât hurt!â
Yohannes paid no attention to Harperâs train of thought, or perhaps it was better to say he didnât care about the opinions of a bystander. He tucked the script beneath the draft and proceeded to open the book.
Harper was right, Yohannes printed this script when he passed by the printer store just now.
There were words on the cover, but there was only a blank inside.
He snorted in a low voice, saying, âYou should consider raising the caliber of your friends.â
Madeline frowned slightly. âI know you think weâre flattering ourselves. She was just making an othand remark. Donât take it to heart. Weâre all aware that itâs not the case. You donât need to worry. I wonât entertain thoughts that shouldnât be in Yohannes turned to look at Madeline as he thought, âWhat does she mean itâs not the case?â
After a long silence, he hummed a response and ignored Madeline.
my mind.â
Madeline focused her gaze on the book, attempting to tune out her surroundings. However, Yohannes presence and the brush of his clothing against her kept diverting her attention, leaving her unusually unsettled.
âSorry, Iâd like to change my seat.
Madeline picked up the book and was ready to go to Harperâs side.
As she was packing her belongings, a hand suddenly reached out and grasped her.
117 She looked at Yohannes in confusion and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
âYou will attract others attention if you move around. I donât want anyone to find out who I am.â
11:40 AM Chapter 96 Yohannes pursed his lips tightly and said seriously, âThis will cause unnecessary trouble to me. Furthermore, if I were to sit beside someone else, people might misinterpret my motives. However, I can avoid such misunderstandings by sitting with you.â
Madeline realized that she was just a bunker.
She raised her chin slightly. âI can cover for you. Show me your script.â
It was a force of habit from work.
Yohannesâ back was slightly straightened, and he unconsciously held tightly onto the script. âThere is no character you can choose here.â
Madeline felt a touch of oddness. âI donât believe my current status grants me the privilege of selecting a character.â
Yohannes opened his mouth and rolled his Adamâs apple. Finally, he looked away awkwardly.
âGlad you know that.â
Although Madeline knew what she had done to Yohannes was bad, she still couldnât help but feel a sense of grievance when confronted with Yohannesâ assertiveness.
Yohannes didnât hear Madelineâs response for a long time. He turned around and saw her red eyes. She was resting on the table like a small bear that had been through a rough ordeal.
A trace of regret rose in his heart.
âItâs okay if you want to choose, but itâs not good for you to choose the role of female lead too early.â
