Jessica falls (2)

Other students subconsciously stopped in their tracks as they watched a girl with fiery red hair charge forward, her beautiful face screaming with anger. Jessica, known for her temper and fierce demeanor just like her hair, was not someone you wanted to cross.

Many students who dared to go against her were already expelled, and it was an open secret that the Dean was her father's cousin. Thus, she was able to go scot-free no matter what happened.

"B*tch, are you deaf?!" Her wrathful voice echoed through the hallway, and other students immediately made way for her.

Julianne suppressed her smile as she tugged at Leila's sleeve, her eyes filled with worry.

"Sister, I think she is calling us."

Leila smirked without pausing. "Then you must be the b*tch she is calling."

Julianne was stunned as she halted, and the next thing she knew, she was being turned around to receive a huge slap on her cheek. The sting spread quickly, her cheek turning red from the impact.

The series of events stunned her so much that she remained blank until the other person spat at her in disgust. The crowd around them murmured in shock.

"B*tch, why are you standing in my way?" Jessica's red eyes glared daggers at her.

"Jessica, she is about to go to her classroom!" The girl's male lackey quickly informed her, trying to stop her from making another scene before they caught up to their target.

"No way!" Saying that, both of them ran to Leila.

Before Jessica could pull Leila back by her school bag, Leila had already turned around, looking at them with a slight frown. "Who are you?"

Once again, Jessica raised her hand in a motion to slap Leila but was immediately stopped. Leila's grip was firm, her eyes glinting with a chilling coldness as she held Jessica's hand and slowly tightened her grip on her wrist, her smile widening.

This girl is crazy...

For the first time, Jessica felt the aura she often projected onto others.

"Yo-You leave me alone!" She tried to wriggle her arm free, but Leila's grip was like iron.

Her wrist was tightened, and that brought immense pain that made her face turn pale, and her brows furrowed in agony.

"Let me go, you b*tch!"

"B*tch?" Leila smirked. "The one with their arse on the floor is the big b*tch."

And then she was let go suddenly, and the impact tumbled her onto the floor. Jessica's fall was hard, the noise echoing in the now silent hallway.

She could hear the laughter of other students as they looked at her on the floor, their faces full of amusement.

Her face turned ripe red as she glared at them, and they quickly quickened their steps to avoid her wrath.

She looked at her lackey, a distant relative who had helped her in many deeds, now standing in front of Leila with uncertainty.

"Yo-You, how dare you slap Jessica?" The boy tried to act fierce in front of Leila until he saw her fair long leg raise, and the next thing he knew, he was being brutally kicked in the groin. He doubled over, gasping in pain.

"I dare to do many things, you know." Leila's voice was calm and collected.

Saying that, she looked at the two of them with a slight smile before preparing to walk away.

"Wow, isn't that the new school beau? She is so beautiful," one of the girls watching the drama gasped.

"Yeah, she is so cool too," another added with a sigh, holding onto her chest.

Leila smirked, feeling good as she waved at the girls, and they waved back with red faces. Suddenly, she was about to collide with someone, but the person held her back, his cold voice tinged with helplessness.

"Careful, Sister."

Leila raised her head and met his gaze, his blue eyes full of worry as he held her shoulder.

"As cute as ever," she muttered, poking his cheek.

Jayden pretended not to hear her as his cold gaze traveled to Jessica, who was being helped up, his eyes darkening slightly before his hand was held by Leila as they walked away.

"Sister is so popular," he said, sounding casual as he reached out to carry her backpack.

"You also think so?" Leila asked excitedly.

He scoffed slightly, ruffling her hair, which left her stunned. "You think I'm praising you?"

Leila looked at him, and he gave an innocent gaze.

Was he playing her?

She was about to say something when she saw him take out an orange-colored lollipop and then put it in her mouth.

As the taste ignited her taste buds with passion, she decided to forgive him but not until she messed up his hair. She stood on her toes and ruffled up his hair, and in the process, his strong arm held her waist so she wouldn't fall and then let go after she stood properly.

"That's what you get when you act impudent with me." With that, she checked out his looks and realized messy hair didn't make him look any less handsome; instead, he looked even hotter, like a bad boy from a novel.

Attractive people are really annoying.

"What if I act even more impudent?"

Leila had already walked a few steps forward and didn't hear him properly. Turning around, she gave him a questioning glance, but he only shook his head, smiling naturally.

"Nothing. Let's go to your class, Sister."

Leila didn't think much into it and continued walking forward.

The students in the hallway just now watched them till they were out of view and couldn't help but whisper excitedly to each other.

"That is Jayden from Class 5, isn't it?" One girl with a baby face turned to her friend excitedly.

"I thought my friend was lying when she told me about how handsome he looks but never told me he could be gorgeous too! I can't believe I haven't unearthed such a man," her friend nodded, tapping her nose.

"Wait, what's with him and Leila?" The baby-faced girl couldn't help but remember their interaction just now, and she felt the taste of dog food in her mouth again.

"Stupid, can't you see that they are dating?" her friend pointed out.
