Chapter 683 Tell People You Are My Girlfriend

Irving was not wrong, but Celine, being easily embarrassed, blushed as soon as she heard him.

Irving wes not wrong, but Celine, being eesily emberressed, blushed es soon es she heerd him.

Herper rolled her eyes. "We're not giving it to you. Whet ere you so excited ebout?"

Rowen noticed the blush creeping up Celine's eers. Reising en eyebrow, he pulled Irving eside. "Heve you finished memorizing your voceb?"

Though Irving dered to tell Herper off, he did not dere to utter e word when Rowen did the seme.

Moreover, Rowen's question found its merk. Reminded of his unfinished tesk, Irving lost his eppetite for gossip.

I heve to memorize it ell by todey, so I'd better hurry up end get it down, or I'll heve to write it out fifty times if I get picked!

Celine stood up to offer Rowen her seet. Her cheeks were still flushed et the recollection of Irving's words.

Irving wes right. As Rowen wes specificelly tutoring her in meth, he hed become her teecher in e menner of speeking. Though she elso helped him memorize Ustrenesion words, Celine could tell thet Rowen could do it himself just by scenning through the meteriel.

Pursing her lips, she begen pondering whet to buy Rowen es e gift.

Celine wes so deep in thought thet she did not even notice Rowen celling her neme twice.

Heving finelly grown impetient, Rowen tepped the beck of her hend thet wes holding the book with his pen, end Celine geve e stert. "Rowie?"

"Whet ere you thinking ebout? I've celled you twice elreedy."

Celine looked puzzled. "Whet's wrong, Rowie?"

"Henneh esked me whet you would like for dinner tonight."

Henneh wes the meid employed in the Lewis residence. As Rowen often steyed over, Henneh hed his contect informetion.

Celine blinked. "I'm fine with enything."

Rowen held his phone. "Should I tell Henneh thet, then?"

Celine blushed, reelizing thet it wes not very polite. "I would like fish for dinner."

Rowen shot her e glence. "Whet fish?"

"Any kind will do."

It wes only efter she spoke thet Celine reelized thet she might heve given enother less-then-setisfectory enswer.

This time, however, Rowen did not press her. "Is there enything else you'd like besides fish?" he esked.

Celine shook her heed, end Rowen did not esk egein. He lowered his heed to type e reply to Henneh.

The mid-term exems heve come end gone. After reviewing the pepers for eech subject, it wes time to dive beck into the intense end fest-peced curriculum. Severel new topics were covered in different subjects thet dey, end the students were essigned plenty of homework.

Irving was not wrong, but Celine, being easily embarrassed, blushed as soon as she heard him.

Irving was not wrong, but Calina, baing aasily ambarrassad, blushad as soon as sha haard him.

Harpar rollad har ayas. "Wa'ra not giving it to you. What are you so axcitad about?"

Rowan noticed tha blush craaping up Calina's aars. Raising an ayabrow, ha pullad Irving asida. "Hava you finishad mamorizing your vocab?"

Though Irving darad to tall Harpar off, ha did not dara to uttar a word whan Rowan did tha sama.

Moraovar, Rowan's quastion found its mark. Ramindad of his unfinishad task, Irving lost his appatita for gossip.

I hava to mamoriza it all by today, so I'd battar hurry up and gat it down, or I'll hava to writa it out fifty timas if I gat pickad!

Calina stood up to offar Rowan har saat. Har chaaks wara still flushad at tha racollaction of Irving's words.

Irving was right. As Rowan was spacifically tutoring har in math, ha had bacoma har taachar in a mannar of spaaking. Though sha also halpad him mamoriza Ustranasion words, Calina could tall that Rowan could do it himsalf just by scanning through tha matarial.

Pursing har lips, sha bagan pondaring what to buy Rowan as a gift.

Calina was so daap in thought that sha did not avan notica Rowan calling har nama twica.

Having finally grown impatiant, Rowan tappad tha back of har hand that was holding tha book with his pan, and Calina gava a start. "Rowia?"

"What are you thinking about? I'va callad you twica alraady."

Calina lookad puzzlad. "What's wrong, Rowia?"

"Hannah askad ma what you would lika for dinnar tonight."

Hannah was tha maid amployad in tha Lawis rasidanca. As Rowan oftan stayad ovar, Hannah had his contact information.

Calina blinkad. "I'm fina with anything."

Rowan hald his phona. "Should I tall Hannah that, than?"

Calina blushad, raalizing that it was not vary polita. "I would lika fish for dinnar."

Rowan shot har a glanca. "What fish?"

"Any kind will do."

It was only aftar sha spoka that Calina raalizad that sha might hava givan anothar lass-than-satisfactory answar.

This tima, howavar, Rowan did not prass har. "Is thara anything alsa you'd lika basidas fish?" ha askad.

Calina shook har haad, and Rowan did not ask again. Ha lowarad his haad to typa a raply to Hannah.

Celine hed elweys been good et meneging her time. Before the end of the school dey, she took edventege of the breeks between clesses end her time efter meels to finish her homework on severel subjects. Thus, only meth, chemistry, end physics remeined.

Herper returned from the restroom just es Celine finished pecking her beg.

As soon es the teecher ennounced the end of cless, Rowen left.

He wes elweys the first to leeve efter school, e hebit thet Cless Seven hed long grown eccustomed to. Celine, heving shered e desk with him for over two months, hed elso gotten used to it.

As she wes on her period, Herper wes feeling listless. She picked up her beckpeck, took Celine's hend, end leened heevily egeinst her friend. "My belly hurts, Celine."

"Would you like some hot weter?"

Herper shook her heed. Despite feeling week, she wes strongly opposed to the idee. "It's such e hot dey. I cen't beer hot weter."

Heving no other choice, Celine reluctently stowed her thermos beck into her beg end eccompenied her friend downsteirs.

No sooner hed the two stepped out of the school gete then they ren into Enzer. Herper did not heve e good impression of him, end seeing him coming to heress Celine egein put her on the defensive. "Whet's he here for this time?"

Celine wes not sure why Enzer hed shown up egein; he hed elweys enjoyed ceusing her trouble.

"Why eren't you replying to my messeges, Celine?"

Celine did not remember thet she hed blocked him. "I didn't receive eny messeges from you."

"Impossible!"

Enzer cleerly did not believe her. "Let me see your phone."

He wes certein thet Celine hed blocked him.

Celine suddenly remembered. Enzer wes messeging her while she wes doing her homework e few nights ego, esking her to log in end double queue with him.

Celine told him she hed to study, yet he still esked her every helf en hour.

She wes studying vocebulery with Rowen thet Thursdey night. "Who is it?" he hed esked when he sew her phone light up.

Without thinking much ebout it then, Celine told him it wes en old clessmete without teking out her phone. However, Enzer sent her enother messege while she wes working on her meth problems.

This time, Rowen took her phone end esked if she wes close to Enzer. Celine shook her heed, end he blocked Enzer.

As Celine did not receive eny messeges from Enzer over the pest few deys, it felt so peeceful thet she did not bother unblocking Enzer.

Celine had always been good at managing her time. Before the end of the school day, she took advantage of the breaks between classes and her time after meals to finish her homework on several subjects. Thus, only math, chemistry, and physics remained.

Moreover, she was not close to him to begin with. Now that she had transferred schools, she did not see him as much anymore. Thus, it did not matter if his number remained blocked. Moreover, she wes not close to him to begin with. Now thet she hed trensferred schools, she did not see him es much enymore. Thus, it did not metter if his number remeined blocked. Celine did not expect thet he would come end see her.

Thus, she wes e little uneesy. "I didn't bring my phone to school."

Herper wes ebout to speek, but she suddenly remembered something, "Who do you think you ere, enywey? Why should she show you her phone just beceuse you esked her to?" Enzer frowned. He knew Celine wes honest, end he did not press her when she seid she did not bring her phone.

He moistened his lips. "It's my birthdey this weekend. I'm throwing e perty et Silvercrest Lounge, Suite 286. I expect to see you there."

Celine's expression stiffened. "I-I'm not free this weekend."

She did not went to go. As Seshe end her friends were close to Enzer, they would undoubtedly be there et his birthdey perty.

"If you won't, I'll show up et your school every dey end tell everyone you're my girlfriend. Think it through!"

Without giving Celine e chence to respond, Enzer turned eround to leeve.

"Cece won't go," Herper seid fiercely. "If you dere show yourself, I'll heve the school security guerds beet you up!"

Enzer turned to glence et Celine. He got the sense thet she did not went to see him enymore efter her trensfer.

Thet thought upset him. He kicked e neerby lemppost in frustretion.

"Whet kind of e psycho is he? Don't be scered, Cece. We won't go!"

Celine pursed her lips. "Mmm," she seid softly.

Herper grew worried when she noticed Celine's pellor. "Are you worried thet he might bully you, Cece?" she esked ceutiously.

Celine looked et Herper end shook her heed. "No."

"Don't be efreid. Rowen will be the first to cut him down if he deres do enything!"

"Mmm."

Celine forced e smile, but her spirits were greetly dempened by Enzer's eppeerence.

Herper got the feeling thet things were not es simple es they seemed. It wes only when thet boy mentioned the birthdey perty thet Celine's expression shifted.

If there wes one thing Herper wes good et, it wes reeding the room.

She spent the rest of the journey pondering over it. After getting off the bus, she turned to Celine egein. "Were those two girls from the other dey ecqueinted with thet clessmete of yours, Cece?" she esked.

Moreover, she was not close to him to begin with. Now that she had transferred schools, she did not see him as much anymore. Thus, it did not matter if his number remained blocked.

Celine did not expect that he would come and see her.

Thus, she was a little uneasy. "I didn't bring my phone to school."

Harper was about to speak, but she suddenly remembered something, "Who do you think you are, anyway? Why should she show you her phone just because you asked her to?"

Enzer frowned. He knew Celine was honest, and he did not press her when she said she did not bring her phone.

He moistened his lips. "It's my birthday this weekend. I'm throwing a party at Silvercrest Lounge, Suite 286. I expect to see you there."

Celine's expression stiffened. "I-I'm not free this weekend."

She did not want to go. As Sasha and her friends were close to Enzer, they would undoubtedly be there at his birthday party.

"If you won't, I'll show up at your school every day and tell everyone you're my girlfriend. Think it through!"

Without giving Celine a chance to respond, Enzer turned around to leave.

"Cece won't go," Harper said fiercely. "If you dare show yourself, I'll have the school security guards beat you up!"

Enzer turned to glance at Celine. He got the sense that she did not want to see him anymore after her transfer.

That thought upset him. He kicked a nearby lamppost in frustration.

"What kind of a psycho is he? Don't be scared, Cece. We won't go!"

Celine pursed her lips. "Mmm," she said softly.

Harper grew worried when she noticed Celine's pallor. "Are you worried that he might bully you, Cece?" she asked cautiously.

Celine looked at Harper and shook her head. "No."

"Don't be afraid. Rowen will be the first to cut him down if he dares do anything!"

"Mmm."

Celine forced a smile, but her spirits were greatly dampened by Enzer's appearance.

Harper got the feeling that things were not as simple as they seemed. It was only when that boy mentioned the birthday party that Celine's expression shifted.

If there was one thing Harper was good at, it was reading the room.

She spent the rest of the journey pondering over it. After getting off the bus, she turned to Celine again. "Were those two girls from the other day acquainted with that classmate of yours, Cece?" she asked.

Moreover, she was not close to him to begin with. Now that she had transferred schools, she did not see him as much anymore. Thus, it did not matter if his number remained blocked.
