Chapter 28 Are You Jealous?
Audrey held out her other hand, which was behind her back.
She was holding a first–aid kit.
“Your forehead is injured.”
Sterling looked at her watery, crystal–clear eyes and frowned irritably. “It’s nothing. You think I’m Corbin?”
Seeing how mean he was, Audrey smiled.
“You bring up Corbin all the time. Are you jealous?”
“Piss off.” He turned around and was about to leave.
Audrey chased after him and stopped him..
“Alright. No more Corbin. Get down.”
Sterling stood still. He was 1.88 meters and a lot taller than her, and he was surrounded by a vicious, cold aura, and therefore it took a lot of courage to look him in the eye.
Audrey bit her l*p and said, her voice going a lot softer, “OK?”
or eves were
pure and clear, reflecting his cold and gloomy handsome face, and her voice was soft and delicate, like the scorching afternoon sun melting marshmallows in the air, exuding a sweet smell.
Sterling’s heart skipped a beat, and he fretted more.
He glared at her fiercely. “Why should I listen to you?”

She reached out and gently tugged at his sleeve.
Her hands were fair and delicate, so small compared to his.
Sterling slowly bowed his slender b*dy with a sullen face.
The golden sun shone on them. He was thin, slender, good–looking, and cold, while she was petite, sweet, and attractive. From a distance, they were just like an exceptionally beautiful painting.
Knowing that Sterling had been punished by the dean of students for running, Kelsey bought some water and came over, and the beautiful scene surprised her.
Audrey took out a band–aid and put it on Sterling’s forehead.
Sterling actually bowed and let her.
Kelsey’s grip on the bottle tightened at once.
She then seemed to think of something. She took out her phone and took a photo.
She registered a new email address and sent the photo to Carlie in Class 10.

Sterling didn’t go back to class in the afternoon.
He went home and took a shower.
He stood at the sink and looked in the mirror.
His eyes rest on the Hello Kitty band–aid on his forehead.
Then he frowned and ripped the band–aid off in disgust.

Yet after a few seconds, he put it on again.
Eden treated him to dinner, and the dishes covered two full tables.
Eden thought it through. There was always someone better than him in the world, and since Sterling fought better than him, according to the rules, he ought to give up his position as the school bully.
“Everyone, this is who you’ll listen to from now on. His name is Sterling.”
The others stood up and looked at Sterling, who had not spoken a word since arriving in the box. With his thin l*ps pursed and expressionless, cold, and arrogant face, it could be easily told that he wasn’t someone they should mess with, yet at the same time, he had a Hello Kitty band–aid affixed to his forehead which was quite contradictory to his persona.
They wanted to laugh but didn’t dare to.
Sterling took the glass Eden handed over, raised his head slightly, and drank up.
His raised chin had a perfect curve.

After the evening self–study, Audrey did not go directly back to the Watson’s place.
Instead, she asked Kale to take her to Flowery Garden.
Since Elise and Kelsey were kicked out of the Watson’s place, Rylan had stopped coming home.
He went out in the middle of the night a few days back and simply didn’t come home at all yesterday.

Audrey thought, “Good for you, Elise. My dad cannot live without you.”
After Kale drove to Flowery Garden, Audrey took the elevator to the top floor.
There was only one apartment on the top floor, which was bought by Rylan a few years ago and later transferred to Elise.
She rang the doorbell, yet no one answered after a long while.
She took out her phone, wanting to send Rylan a message on Line, only to see that Kelsey had posted something on her Timeline.
Kel Here: “Rylan is so nice to me and my mom. Well, I’m so afraid of getting fat.”
She also posted a photo of her having a late–night snack at a fancy seafood restaurant.
