Chapter 35 Be Gentle Around Sterling


    Since Sterling knocked down some bully


    Eden over the weekend, Eden was no rom Ninth High School for


    completely willing to be


    Sterling’sckey. Eden grinned while patting his thigh, saying, “Damn! It never urred to me that the sweet Audra is so good at


    words. She manages to trick Ms. Steele!”


    The teenager beside Eden was holding an unlit cigarette in his mouth. He took the cigarette off with his slender fingers and


    nced at Eden coldly. “The sweet Audra?”


    Seeing the gloomy look on Sterling’s face, Eden figured that Sterling regarded Audrey as his swornenemy and didn’t want to


    hear her name, so he quickly changed the subject, saying, “Are you going to the ss in the morning or what? If not, why don’t


    we go to the Inte café to y games together?”


    Sterling crushed the cigarette, threw it into the garbage can, ced his hands into his ck school pants, and parted his thin


    lips, saying coldly, “Let’s go.”


    They went to the Inte café and entered a box.


    Sterling sat by the window and turned on theputer. Eden was about to y a game when he saw Sterling raise his long


    bony fingers. and tap on the keyboard./


    “Damn! What''s this?”


    Sterling said coldly, “Mind your own business.”


    Eden had no choice but to put on the headphones and y a game. Meanwhile, he kept peering at the teenager next to him


    quietly.


    ie)


    In the past, Eden thought of himself as a good-looking teenager, yet now he realized that he was nothingpared with


    Sterling.


    Sterling had a cold face, and he was like aic book character. He had a profound facial line, a smooth and beautiful jaw, and


    a pair of dark eyes. He could attract attention no matter what he did.


    The same thing went for now. He methodically tapped the keyboard with both hands as strings of iprehensible code shed


    across the screen. He was clearly doing something very advanced and sophisticated, yet he looked casual and at ease.


    It was like he was doing something easy and wasn’t worth mentioning


    at all.


    Eden could not get what Sterling was doing, and he felt dazzled.


    He thought, “Forget it. | might as well go back to my game.


    “Such things need the participation of those with high IQs, which has nothing to do with me.”


    It was noon.


    Audrey and Patrick were eating in the cafeteria.


    The entire morning, many people from other sses came to ss 10 to see Audrey as if she were a gori at the zoo. Patrick


    chased a


    bunch of them away several times.


    He was still mad.


    “Who says you can’t make it to the top three? They are so stupid and narrow-minded!”

    Looking at Patrick, who supported her unconditionally and believed in her no matter what she did, Audrey coughed softly and


    then said, “Maybe you are the only one in the whole school who believes in me.”


    Patrick took a sip of his drink and whispered, “Audrey, how about I hand in a nk examination paper on Friday? In such a way,


    even if you don’t get to be the top three, at least you won''t be the tailender...”


    Before he could finish speaking, his leg under the table was kicked by Audrey ruthlessly.


    “Audrey, I’m wrong. Didn’t you say that you would be gentle? Howe you are still so rude and violent?”


    Audrey ate slowly. “I''ll only be gentle when I’m around Sterling.”


    Patrick almost squirted the drink out. “Are you really going to patch things up with him?”


    “Of course.”


    “Yet he’s much tougher than Corbin!”


    “Challenge is what makes me attractive.”This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.


    Patrick was too timid to remind her that even though she had tried to be attractive when around Corbin for two years, she still


    failed to win Corbin’s heart.


    “Audra.”


    Asoft voice rang out from behind them, and Kelsey and some girls from ss 1 came up.


    “| saw the post on the forum. It saddens me to see people talking about you like that. No matter what, | believe you!” Kelsey


    walked over to Audrey and took out a notebook. “Here are my notes from usual times.

    Take them and ask me if you don’t understand anything.


    “Audra, although you drove my mother and me out of the Watson’s ce, | have always regarded you as my biological sister.”
