Of course, everyone knew about Eliza and Naomi’s relationship. 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’t come to school that day. Their substitute teacher was still Matteo.
Because Matteo was handsome and had a mysterious background, many of the female students at Claire University were desperately trying to dig up information on him.
The girls in the class looked at him with barely concealed admiration.
Matteo entered the classroom, swept his eyes across the students, and said, “We’ll do a 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 Nolan. At that moment, Eliz froze, thinking she must have misheard.
But when she looked up, she saw Nolan walking in from outside the classroom.
He wore only a simple black windbreaker, yet the moment he stepped through the door, he became the center of attention.
Nolan wasn’t supposed to be part of their class.
And yet, here he was.
“Mr. Matteo, did you call the wrong name? Nolan’s not in our class,” one student said.
No one in Eliza’s class wanted to be in the same room as Nolan. 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 Nolan really joined their class, half the students would probably try to transfer.
Eliza immediately sensed the discomfort her classmates felt toward Nolan.
Nolan, unfazed, walked over and 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 and replied indifferently, “Work it out among yourselves. It’s not my concern.”
Seeing that he wasn’t going to help. Eliza turned her gaze away, her expression cold.
A few nearby students began picking up on the subtle tension between the two.
After all, someone claiming to be Nolan’s fiancée had once stormed the school entrance in a rage.
Clearly, Eliza and Nolan did have some sort of connection. And since Eliza wasn’t exactly warm and approachable to begin with, the other students were now even more reluctant to get close to her.

Eliza glanced at Nolan beside her. From the moment he had entered the room, he’d been watching her wit that guilty, remorseful look.
And he hadn’t looked away once.
Eliza pondered. That pitiful, wide–eyed look just didn’t suit Nolan at all. He was the kind of man who played hardba. when had he ever looked so soft around the edges?
“Nolan, that’s enough. Why the heck did you switch classes?”
Nolan’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 classes. because of that?”
Eliza almost laughed in disbelief. People said Nolan was dangerous and hard to handle, but now here he was transferring classes 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 Nolan’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 place.”

“If you really want me to 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.”
Eliza had spoken out of anger. But before the words were even fully out of her mouth, Nolan had already gotten up from his seat.
The next second, he was walking out of the classroom.
Everyone was stunned. Class was still in session. And Nolan just walked out like that?
All eyes turned to Matteo, the substitute teacher.
Even Eliza hadn’t expected Nolan to take her words so literally and leave.
But just moments later, a voice rang out from below the academic building.
“Eliza, I’m sorry!”
Nolan’s voice was loud–clear enough to be heard even from the fifth floor.
Several classroom windows across the building were thrown open
Everyone wanted to see who had gone so nuts—screaming like that under the academic building.
And what they saw was Nolan–the most untouchable student at Claire University–shouring up at the

“Has he lost his mind? That’s Nolan!”

“Nolan actually apologized to Eliza in public under the academic building? Man, being from the Sue family really is something.”
“No kidding. The head of the Hayes family himself is throwing away his pride for the daughter of an overseas tycoon.”
Everyone was watching Nolan make a fool of himself.
But Eliza couldn’t even bring herself to laugh. Was Nolan an idiot or what? He really stood there shouting under the teaching building like that? Was he not afraid people would start talking behind his back?
