Chapter 178 He Trusted Her

Finished

Nico found Tessa and Ysabel and saw that Tessa was just lying on the grass, leisurely sunbathing. He still couldn’t believe his eyes.

After all, any girl facing those kinds of rumors would’ve been upset, but she had stayed completely calm.

“Tessa, are you okay? I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. If I hadn’t asked you to go to the lab for the experiment, none of this would’ve happened.”

Nico felt really guilty. But since it had already happened, nothing he said now could change it.

Tessa sat up from the grass. The sunlight was a bit too bright, so she squinted slightly.

“You didn’t do anything wrong. This has nothing to do with you. Don’t worry, whatever they’re planning, I’m still here.”

Nico was stunned. He had come to comfort Tessa, but he didn’t expect her to say that. Did she forget she’s the one who’s supposed to need support?

“Nico, I really want to ask you something right now. Why did you take off your jacket? You were just doing an experiment, so why take your clothes off? That’s exactly the kind of thing that makes people misunderstand.” Ysabel’s tone wasn’t friendly. Nico might’ve been good–looking, but he’d caused Tessa serious trouble.

Tessa just wanted a peaceful high school life; it shouldn’t be too much to ask, yet people kept picking on her.

“I…” For a moment, Nico didn’t know how to respond. Im sorry.”

That seemed to be the only thing he could say.

“I already told you this has nothing to do with you. What happened to your injuries?” Tessa asked.

Nico’s family was one of the well–known werewolf nobles in Navoris. At Navoris High, there shouldn’t be many who dared mess with him.

“Yeah, how did you get hurt?” Ysabel added.

“It’s nothing. A few guys were running their mouths, so taught them a lesson.”

When Ysabel heard that, her hostility toward him disappeared.

“Not bad, Nico. When I heard what those people said about Tessa, I really wanted to fight them too. But I held back. You, on the other hand… You’ve got guts.”

Nico gave a bitter smile.

“Nico, let’s end it here. Don’t get involved anymore. I’ll handle the rest.”

“Tessa, no matter what you think, this whole thing started because of me. There’s no way I’m just going to walk away. I’ll make sure the post is deleted, and I’ll find the person behind it. She’ll apologize to you.”

With that, Nico turned and left.

“I always thought Nico was good–looking,” Ysabel said, but after seeing how he stood up for you, I think he’s even hotter now. Still, Tessic, I have to say, no matter how hot he is, he’s not as hot as my uncle. My uncle really likes you.”

Tessa remained silent.

“I’m serious. Do you think I should tell my uncle about all this?”

“No need. This kind of thing isn’t worth his attention. Its just small stuff between classmates.”
