"No. I"m not." Anna flatly replied.
"You"re not? Anna, you can say all the lies you want to say, but you can never fool me." Leon might not know Anna that well, but that doesn"t mean that he isn"t able to see through a person who is lying to him.
Working under Arion made him be more keen on observing people. He knows when they lie to him and when they are trying to play tricks on him. Be it old or young people, when they lie their eyes wonders around, their fingers fidget, and the way they talk.
Leon has never met someone who is great at lying, but he never meant that he wants to meet one. It will only bring him trouble if that happens.
Sighing, Anna looks at Leon and spoke to him in an irritated tone. "You know what?! Fine! You are right! I am upset with him! I had a date with him a few days ago and he didn"t even say a single word about my father!" Anna said very loudly, and the whole cla.s.sroom was silent because of that.
Even Leon was left in silence when he saw the flare in Anna"s eyes. He never thought that would be able to see Anna looking so angry.
Now he is starting to feel bad that he told her about Kyle being one of the first ones to know about Arion being back. The thing he could do right now is to hope that Anna"s feelings towards Kyle won"t waver.
"Ms. Coleman! It"s very rude of you to interrupt the cla.s.s like that!" The teacher angrily said. "If you will, can you please not do it again? And also, see me after cla.s.s." Every teacher in the school is very strict, and they educate heir and heiress when seeing something that an heir or heiress shows inappropriate manners.
The teachers are one of the reasons why the school has a good reputation and is rising to the top. Even though it"s annoying sometimes, Anna still thinks that it"s a good thing that the teachers are strict.
"I"m sorry, Sir. It won"t happen again." After saying that Anna gave Leon a stabbing glare.
"Why are you glaring at me? It"s not my fault that you got scolded." He did not force her to scream, it was her choice t scream in anger.
"Not your fault? You were pus.h.i.+ng me to answer your stupid question and I got angry." No matter what Leon says, Anna believes that Leon is the reason why. The moment she stepped out of the Coleman mansion, that is the moment she decided not to speak or think about Kyle.
A lot of things have been happening around her and she does not want to think about Kyle at this time around. She wants to fix her family problem first, before fixing whatever is coming in between them.
"Anna Coleman and Leon Shui! This is your last warning! If you two won"t stop talking over me, you two will be walking out of this cla.s.sroom until the bell rings." Usually, the teacher wouldn"t mind if the students talk, but he wants them to talk to each other when he is not talking. It is basic manners not to interrupt when a teacher is teaching.
Anna and Leon immediately shut their mouths. They can"t complain or say something back towards their teacher since they are in the wrong.
In the corner of Anna"s eyes, Anna saw the mocking smiles on the faces of Elizabeth and Rebecca. Just seeing their faces sure does annoy her very much. Just by seeing that smile of theirs, Anna can tell that they are having fun watching her being scolded by their teacher.
The first cla.s.s is over, but Anna is the only one left in the room. She is having a second scolding from her teacher. "Anna, don"t ever do that again. You are from the Coleman family, the most respective family in the society. You must never scream like that especially in front of other influential families."
As the teacher is saying his words, Anna keeps on nodding and keeps on saying that she will never do it again. Anna is not entirely listening to her teacher, her mind is completely on a different matter.
She"s cooking up a plan to finally make a move against Rebecca.
After a five minute session with her teacher, Anna is finally free to go to her second cla.s.s. As soon as she got out of the room, the first person she saw is Leon"s face.
"Oh! Just the right person I"m looking for." Anna exclaimed in excitement.
"What"s this? You"re excited to see? Wow. I feel honored." The reason he waited for Anna is that he and Anna have the same cla.s.s next period. As he was waiting, he was expecting her to give him a glare for getting a scolding from their teacher.
However, what he expected didn"t come. He doesn"t know whether he should feel happy about it or feel scared on whatever Anna has set on her mind.
"Of course, I"m excited to see you," Anna said with a smile. "You follow orders from my father, and that also means that you will follow my orders?" Since Leon is already working for her father, Anna thought that it would be good to have Leon follow her orders. Of course, she"s not gonna treat him like a slave.
She"s only gonna use him when she really needs him, and right now, he needs him for her plan.
"Seriously?" Leon asked in disbelief, then sighed in defeat. "What do you want me to do?" Even if he says that he is not allowed to take orders from her, Anna would still insist and in the end, he has no choice.
"I want you to upload this video and pictures to the media." Anna handed her phone to Leon, and Leon was surprised to see the photos and the video in one of her secret files.
"Are you sure you want to show this? These contents are mindblowing." If Leon were to choose what move he would take against Rebecca, he would rather have saved some of the pictures for last.
"You think that this is mindblowing? Heh. You have no idea what I have in my other files." The ones on her phone are nothing compared to the ones she has on her computer.
Rebecca has a lot of secrets, and it"s her fault for leaving traces for Anna to find.
"Wow. Rebecca must have done unforgivable things to you."
