Chapter 255 Don’t Provoke What You Can’t Handle

Winona stared after Evan car until it vanished from view, then jogged to catch up with Tessa. She grabbed the hood of Tessa’s sweatshirt.

“Tessa, what’s your problem? I know you’re jealous, but how could you embarrass me like that? Don’t you realize how important Evan is to me?”

Damn this Tessa–why is she always so smug and cold?

Tessa’s expression turned icy the moment she felt the tug on her hoodie.

“Let go.” Her eyes slid to the side, cold and sharp with an invisible pressure behind them.

Winona flinched at the tone but still refused to release her grip.

“I’m warning you–Evan’s mine. Don’t even think about trying to seduce him, or–ah!”

Before she could finish, Tessa spun and caught Winona’s wrist in a flash, twisting it hard.

Winona let out a shrill cry, her face turning pale.

“Tessa, let go…” she whimpered, her voice weak from the pain.

It had been a while since Tessa last taught her a lesson. Winona had almost forgotten just how terrifying she could be.

Tessa’s grip tightened slightly. “Weren’t you acting all proud just now? What happened–cat got your tongue?”

Winona was in too much pain to answer. Sweat rolled down her temples in thick beads.

With a sneer, Tessa finally flung her away. Winona staggered back, cradling her wrist, eyes full of panic and disbelief.

Tessa watched her reaction with amusement.

“If you’re so afraid of me, why do you keep provoking me? What’s wrong with you? Are you that desperate?

“You-“Winona gasped. She actually dared to insult me like that?

“I didn’t bother with you because you weren’t worth my time. What? Already forgotten about the little stunt with the photos? How’s Anna doing these days? Not so great, right?”

Tessa knew exactly how Anna was doing.

The mention of Anna made Winona’s heart skip a beat

“Tessa, so what? You don’t have proof.”

“Proof?” Tessa’s smile turned cold. “I don’t need proof. If I feel like it, I’ll make sure you never use that hand to draw again. Think I’m bluffing?”

Chapter 255 Don’t Provoke What You Can’t Handle

Tessa was satisfied by the bloodless look on her face.

“So stay quiet and live your pitiful little life. Don’t mess with people who can crush you.”

With that, she turned and walked off coolly.

Winona trembled with fury. “Damn it.”

She kicked the tree next to her in frustration.

She was deeply dissatisfied with how things were going Why hasn’t she won even once since Tessa got back from Falindale?

After two periods of review classes, Tessa was already bored. She could remember everything after just one read–why sit through mindless repetition?

She pulled out her earbuds and rested her head on the desk, listening to music.

She didn’t stir until someone tapped lightly on her desk

She looked up and saw Nico.

It was the first time they’d spoken since the incident.

He looked taller than before, but his eyes were duller now–like the light had gone out.

“Do you need something?”

Last time, she had made it clear–she had no feelings for him. So why was he here now?

“I heard your grandfather had surgery… I didn’t get a chance to visit. Is he doing okay? Are you okay?”

What he really wanted was to know if she was okay. The moment he heard she was back at school, he couldn’t help but come find her.

“I’m fine. Thanks for asking.”

“Tessa… I’m really sorry about what happened last time. I was wondering… could we still be friends?”

Nico finally spoke what was in his heart. He just wanted to stay by her side.

If she hadn’t known he liked her, she wouldn’t have minded keeping him around as a friend. But knowing that made it impossible.

“Nico, I don’t need any more friends.”

Whatever light ad flickered back into Nico’s eyes dimmed again.

“Oh..
