    Ava''s eyes flung open, and she pushedn hard on his chest


    "What''s wrong with you? Why can''t you just let me live?" she asked with a disbelieving look.


    cigarette, which he was still hold his fingers.


    "You called me dirtyst night. How can I let you go so easily, nerd?"


    "Stop calling me a nerd. You are worse than those bullies," she mumbled, her eyes stinging with tears.


    But she was not going to let this boy


    her tears. She would not let him make fun of her emotions again.


    "You can change your appearance. But for me, you are still that nerd I rejected."


    She closed her eyes and turned around. She did not want to be with him for a single moment. She tried to muster some courage against him, but he was a cruel boy who only knew how to make her feel bad.


    She still did not know what he wanted from her.


    She had only one option, which was to talk with her brother


    She dialed Stephen''s number while walking ahead, leaving fan behind.


    Stephen did not receive her call. Sho


    assumed that he was attending a ss, which was why he could not receive it. With disappointment in her face, she took a deep breath.


    She noticed a bus wasing on her way. She realized she had walked a little away from the bus stop. She decided to take it, but then she took a step back when she thought fan would also board the bus.


    So she hailed a cab and hurried to the university.


    When she arrived at her university, she noticed that everyone was talking aboutn Dawson.


    There was some news spread thatn was out of money. Everyone assumed that his father was angry at him, so he cut off all of his expenses.


    It did not bother Ava. What bothered her


    Wa


    the second news.


    There were some pictures ofn and her sitting on the bus next to each other. They looked really close in those pictures. The other pictures were from the street wheren was following her after getting down from the bus.


    "What nonsense! Is this even news?" Ava murmured, shaking her head. Ava murmured, shaking her head.


    She saw the news the moment she entered the campus. They were all over the timeline of the university''s group profile.


    "Ava!"


    She paused walking when she heard Abigail''s voice. Before she could turn, she was immediately hugged by Abigail.


    "What happened, Ava? Why isn following you? You didn''t say anythingst night, either. I had seen himing out of the room. But when I asked, you said nothing."


    Ava broke the hug and exhaled. She nced around before holding Abigail''s hand.

    "Let''s go," she said, leading her to somewhere to talk.


    As usual, they sat in the cafeteria.


    When Ava told her


    that had happened in the dark room, Abigail appeared to be angry.


    "How dare he! It''s an assault. How


    can he touch you without your permission?"


    Ava was about to agree with her but paused. She recalledn''s wordsst night. He imed she could not resist his closeness. She remembered the moans and how she almost lost herself in the sensation of his lips kissing her neck.


    "He is a bastard! It''s be his habit to sleep with a new girl every night. How cheap! You should have pped him."


    Abigail''s angry voice pulled Ava back from her thoughts. She wanted to shrug everything off her mind.


    "I want to forget that boy. I just want him to stay away from me, Abi. Please do something," Ava said to Abigail desperately.


    Abigail was about to say something, but another voice interrupted them.


    "Hey guys, what are you talking about? It seems serious."


    They turned their heads and saw Luke close to the table. He walked toward them and took the seat next to Ava.


    Abigail raised her brows as if something hade to mind.


    "She is worrying about the bad boy in our pack. Have you got anything on your mind, Luke?"


    Hearing aboutn, Luke''s face became gloomy. Ava pinched the edge of her brow in frustration.


    "I saw the posts. Why was he with you, Ava?" he asked her.


    Ava nced at him and replied,


    "I don''t know. Nowadays, he is disturbing me a lot. I want to get rid of him. I am tired of telling him that. I don''t know why he is picking on me again and again."


    Luke put his hand over hers and gently rubbed the back of her hand.


    Abigail nced at their hands. A smirk appeared on her lips as she said,


    "I think it''s time for my bestie to get a boyfriend."


    Ava did not respond to Abigail, as she thought she was just kidding.


    But Luke gazed at Abigail, who winked at him. Luke immediately looked away


    from Abigail and returned his gaze to Ava.


    His eyes were filled with adoration as he looked at her. He looked at his hand and held her hand with both of his hands.


    Ava slowly lifted her gaze to look at him.


    "I think Abigail is not wrong. You should give it a shot. Who knows, there is someone who really wants to protect you."


    Ava stared at Luke. For the first time in years, she noticed a change in his gaze toward her.


    She bit her bottom lip and nced away when she realized he was talking about himself.

    Just as she was about to speak to him, the entire cafeteria fell silent.


    Ava turned her head to see what was making the others so quiet.


    But the moment she turned her head, she froze.


    But what caught her attention was that he was staring at Luke''s hand, which was holding hers.
