Emma raised her hand, ready to slap Naomi across the left check–only for a large hand to suddenly grab
hier wrist.
When Emma looked up, she saw Matteo standing off to the side.
Matteo’s expression was unreadable; the look in his eyes startled Emma.
She immediately yanked her hand back.
With a frosty expression, Emma said. “Do you even know who I am? If you stick your nose where it doesn’t belong. I’ll have my dad teach you a lesson!”
“I’m a substitute teacher at this school. If you keep making a scene, I’ll have no choice but to call your parents.”
As soon as Emma heard he was a substitute teacher at Claire University, her face changed.
People like her still had respect for the professors at Claire University.
Emma took a deep breath and said, “Fine, I’m not making a scene! But this woman–she was the one trying to seduce guys here, and then she even hit me! How are you going to handle that?”
Behind her. Naomi, feeling emboldened now that someone was on her side–spoke up with newfound
courage.
“You’re just mad because you can’t compare. You can’t stand seeing me getting close to other guys, can you? You’re the one asking for it!”
Before Naomi could even finish her sentence, Matteo raised his hand and slapped her across the face.”
The sound rang out sharp and clear; half of Naomi’s face instantly flared with pain.
“Matteo! You!”
Naomi glared at Matteo, but he turned his gaze toward Emma instead and said, “Are you satisfied now?”
Emma hadn’t expected Matteo to lay a hand on Naomi like that; she stood there stunned.
Not far off, Eliza watched the whole scene unfold. Something about the way Matteo treated Naomi felt off, like there was some kind of connection between them.
Just as she was about to step forward to get a better look, Matteo’s eyes landed on her.
With just one glance, Eliza quickly averted her gaze, afraid he might set his sights on her next.
After Emma and the others left. Matteo finally turned to Naomi.
The moment she met his eyes, Naomi’s heart started pounding with guilt.
“You! Come with me.”
Matteo didn’t spare her another glance.-
Over on the side, Eliza watched Naomi follow Matteo out, then got ready to tail them.

Henry, standing beside her, grabbed her arm and said, “Some things are better left unseen. You’ll only bri trouble onto yourself.”
“But you’re here, aren’t you?” Eliza replied. “Don’t worry, I’m just going to watch from a distance.”
“I’m coming with you.”
Henry stepped ahead of her.
The two of them quickly headed toward the second floor of the auditorium.
Naomi followed Matteo into a room. Matteo shoved her onto the couch.
Naomi lost her balance and crashed to the floor.
“Matteo, you!”
Before she could finish, Matteo grabbed her by the throat.
In an instant, a wave of suffocating pressure swept through Naomi’s entire body. “Cough! Cough!”
She couldn’t get a word out, only flailed and slapped at his hand in desperation.
“Let go! I was wrong! I was wrong!”
“I’m warning you, don’t think too highly of yourself.”
Matteo’s voice was icy.
“If you weren’t still useful, I would’ve killed you a long time ago.”
With that, he released her.
Naomi collapsed to the floor, gasping for air in huge gulps.
Matteo looked down at her from above and said, “Know your place. The moment you’re no longer valuable to me, I won’t hesitate to kill you.”
Upon hearing that, Naomi immediately dropped to her knees and clutched his legs.
“No! I’m still useful–don’t kill me! I can still help you! Nathaniel already trusts me; soon, I’ll be able to kill him for you! Keeping me around will pay off–I know what industries will make the most money in the future! I can help you!”
Watching her struggle like that, Matteo’s face remained utterly impassive.
Terrified he didn’t believe her, Naomi rushed to add, “Keep me around–I can do a lot for you. I can serve
you too..”
Just as she reached out to touch him, Matteo didn’t bother hiding the disgust in his eyes.
“Don’t use that filthy act on me. I find it repulsive.”
He quickly caught the sound of movement outside the door.

Turning around, he opened the door to the auditorium’s broadcasting room–only to find no one there.
Matteo had always been on high alert. He glanced back at Naomi, still crumpled on the ground, and said, “You’re a student. Don’t go around causing trouble on campus. This is your first warning–if I catch again, don’t bother showing up to class anymore.”
“I understand! I promise I won’t cause any more trouble at school!”
Naomi apologized in a panic.
Only then did Matteo leave the broadcasting room without looking back.
It was a long while before Naomi finally stumbled out.
Eliza, who had been watching everything from a corner, frowned slightly.

They’d gotten there too late to catch what was said between the two. But if it was only about disciplining a student, there’d be no reason to lock themselves in the broadcasting room.
