    Of course, everyone knew about Eliza and Naomi’s rtionship. They just hadn’t expected Eliza to show absolutely no emotion toward her own sister. The students who had been hoping to watch some drama alt quickly fell silent.


    Halbert didn’te to school that day. Their substitute teacher was still Matteo.


    Because Matteo <b>was </b>handsome and had a mysterious background, many of the female students at ire University were desperately trying to dig up information on him.


    The girls in the ss looked at him with barely concealed admiration.


    Matteo entered the ssroom, swept his eyes across the students, and said, “We’ll do <b>a </b>random roll call today.”


    He pulled out a small notebook and began calling names.


    At first, Eliza didn’t think much of it–until Matteo slowly called out the name Nn. At that moment, Eliz froze, thinking she must have misheard.


    But when she looked up, she saw Nn walking in from outside the ssroom.


    He wore only a simple <b>ck </b>windbreaker, yet the moment he stepped through the door, he became the center of attention.


    Nn wasn’t supposed to be part of their ss.


    And yet, here he was<b>. </b>


    “Mr. Matteo, did you call the wrong name? Nn’s not in our ss,” one student <b>said</b><b>. </b>


    No one in Eliza’s ss wanted to be in the same room as Nn. Their parents had already warned them to stay away from him.

    Naturally, they were all too afraid to get close to someone so dangerous.


    If Nn really joined their ss, half the students would probably try to transfer.


    Eliza immediately sensed the difort her ssmates felt toward Nn.


    Nn, unfazed, walked over <b>and </b>sat down right beside her. There was an empty seat next to Eliza; the other students didn’t dare sit near her either.


    Eliza said coolly, “Mr. Matteo, I don’t want to sit next to him.”


    Matteo merely looked up <b>and </b>replied indifferently, “Work it out among yourselves. It’s not my concern.”


    Seeing that he <b>wasn’t </b><b>going </b>to help. Eliza turned her gaze away, her expression cold.


    A few nearby students began <b>picking </b>up on the subtle tension between the two.


    After all, someone iming to be Nn’s fiancée had once stormed the school entrance in a rage.


    Clearly, Eliza and Nn did have <b>some </b>sort of connection. And since Eliza wasn’t exactly warm <b>and </b>approachable to begin with, the other students were now even more reluctant to get close to her.

    Eliza nced at Nn beside her. From the moment he had entered the room, he’d been watching her wit <b>that </b>guilty, remorseful look.


    And he <b>hadn’t </b>looked away once.


    Eliza pondered. That pitiful, wide–eyed <i>look </i>just didn’t suit Nn at all. He was the kind of man who yed hardba. when had he ever looked so soft around the edges?


    “Nn, that’s enough. Why the heck did you switch sses?”


    Nn’s voice was low. “I don’t want you to marry Henry,”


    He and Henry had once been brothers.


    But he couldn’t just stand by and watch Henry steal Eliza away from him.


    “You switched sses. because of that?”


    Eliza almostughed in disbelief. People said Nn was dangerous and hard to handle, but now here he was transferring sses over something like this?


    “Eliza, you’re the most important person in the world to me. I don’t want to lose you.”


    Every word out of Nn’s mouth was sincere.


    But Eliza didn’t believe a single one anymore.


    “If you really didn’t want to lose me. then you shouldn’t have kept things from me in the first ce.”

    “If you really want me <b>to </b>forgive you, go out to the front of the academic building and shout, “Eliza. I’m sorry! Otherwise, stop sitting next to me and talking<b>.” </b>


    Eliza had spoken out of anger. But before the words were even fully out of her mouth, Nn had already gotten up from his seat.


    The next second, he was walking out of the ssroom.


    Everyone was stunned. ss was still in session. And Nn just walked out like that?


    All eyes turned to Matteo, the substitute teacher<b>. </b>


    Even Eliza hadn’t expected Nn to take her words so literally and leave.


    But just momentster, a voice rang out from below the academic building<b>. </b>


    “Eliza, I’m sorry!”


    Nn’s voice was loud–clear enough to be heard even from the fifth floor.


    Several <b>ssroom </b>windows <b>across </b>the building were <b>thrown </b>open


    Everyone wanted to see who had gone so <b>nuts</b>—screaming like that under the academic building.


    And what they saw was Nn–the <b>most </b>untouchable student at ire University–shouring up at the

    “Nn actually apologized to Eliza in public under the academic building? Man, being from the Sue family really is something<b>.</b>”


    “No kidding. The head of the Hayes family himself is throwing away his pride for the daughter of an <b>overseas </b>tycoon.”


    Everyone was watching Nn make a fool of himself.


    But Eliza couldn’t even bring herself tough. Was Nn an idiot or what<i>? </i>He really stood there shouting under the teaching building like that? Was he not afraid people would start talking behind his back?
