Spencer quickly shot a look at Norah and whispered, “Since Nicole likes grilled fish, we just thought of
taking her to the best place to eat.”
Nicole could also hear it, although his voice was not loud. She did not expect these two brothers to
treat her so well. Their action was so heart-warming. She was slow to warm up, but she had gradually
accepted their kindness.
“Thank you, Samuel, Spencer. This meal will be on me.” She was the one who wanted to eat grilled
fish, after all.
“No.” Samuel immediately straightened his back.
“How can we ask our younger sister to pay for it? Your job today is to eat. It is on me.”
“Since this is the case, thank you so much.” Nicole could not help but chuckle. She could not bring
herself to refuse the kindness of her two brothers, no matter what.
“It is very expensive here. I guess you could not afford it, Nicole.” Norah taunted.
“Don’t worry, Norah. I have my brothers here.” Nicole smiled. Not bothering to talk to Norah more, she
hit her where it hurt the most.
Norah’s expression changed. It was her brother’s attention that she cared most about. But now Nicole
had taken all that away. Norah could not describe how miserable she felt. She looked at Nicole, and
her gaze turned darker and darker.
While waiting for the food to be served, Samuel smiled at Nicole.
“Spencer and I heard you were going to take the Olympiad exams. So we decided to invite you to a
good meal as encouragement.”
When Norah heard Nicole was taking part in the Maths Olympiad, she could not help but ask, ” You
want to take part in the Maths Olympiad? It is a tough competition. Are your results up to par?”
Their class – Class A – had a few selected top students take part in the exam. Even Norah herself did
not get a chance. Yet a country girl like Nicole was taking part? Did she even know what the Maths
Olympiad was when she signed up for it? It was unbelievable.
Samuel did not get Norah’s sarcasm. He proudly held his head high and said, “Why not? Don’t forget
that my sister is the daughter of the Riddle family, good enough to take part in the Maths Olympiad
exam.”
While they talked, the waitstaff served food to the table. While Samuel talked, Spencer thoughtfully
fetched a slice of the grilled fish to Nicole.
“Try it. This part tastes great.”
“Thank you, Spencer.” Nicole had never been treated so attentively. She took the plate and felt
touched.
Norah saw that the treatment she had used to receive was now given to Nicole. The two brothers
looked at her but did not give her the same treatment, as if they were mindful of
their relationship. The jealousy exploded inside Norah. She wished she could just smash her cutlery on
the table and leave. But then she saw someone walk in.
‘Is she not from the Holmes family?’
Norah did not go to Class B, but she had heard about what happened in the morning. She did not
expect to see Snow’s buddy while having a meal here. It looked like God was on her side.
With this thought in mind, she called out to Nicole.
“This dish also tastes good. Try it.”
Sure enough, her voice successfully caught the attention of Ashley, who looked startled.
She breathed a sigh of relief only after she saw Nicole was not looking at her. Her parents saw she in a
bad mood and brought her out to dinner. She did not expect to see Nicole here.
‘What a small world!Just when she wished she could leave, the sight of Samuel and Spencer surprised
her. She wondered why a country girl like Nicole could afford to dine at such a place. Not only that,
Nicole was surrounded by two famous twin handsome men. Watching the two of them attend to Nicole,
treating her like a princess, struck her dumb.
A sense of jealousy and indignation flashed in Ashley’s eyes. This whore had not only successfully
seduced Austin but also the two handsome guys from the music class and basketball team.
Watching Samuel smile at Nicole, Ashley was convinced that Nicole was seducing the two guys.
‘A transfer student takes advantage of her beauty to behave so appropriately. She is absolutely
shameless!’
Ashley felt depressed when the thought of what Nicole had done to her in the morning came to mind.
While waiting for her parents to park the car, she took out her mobile phone and found an angle to take
a photo of Spencer and Samuel cozying up to Nicole and then posted it to the school forum. Keenly
sensing that someone was watching her, Nicole looked back and, sure enough, she saw Ashley Ashley
looked as if she had done something wrong and quickly put away the phone, pretending not to see
Nicole and hurrying away. But Nicole kept staring at her. Her years of experience told her that Ashley
must have just photographed something.
“Samuel, Spencer. Please excuse me. I am going to the ladies’ room for a while.”
“Okay.” Samuel agreed without even thinking about it.
Nicole stood up and walked in the direction where Ashley had disappeared. Leaving the VIP area with
floor-to-ceiling windows, Nicole walked past a glass corridor and came to the ordinary dining area.
Seeing that Ashley had sat down with her parents, Nicole walked over with a cold look in her eyes.
Unaware that Nicole was coming, Ashley was looking down at her phone, reading the
comments of the photo, all of which suspected Nicole of seducing the handsome guys and behaving
inappropriately.
Ashley felt triumphant reading those comments, proud of her photography skills. She took the photo in
such a way that no matter who one looked at it, they would surely feel that Nicole was seducing men.
Feeling a chill on the back of her neck, she subconsciously looked up and found that Nicole had come
in front of her without her knowing and was looking at her gravely.
