Chapter 10

I still walked home with Lucas and the others.

After I gave them the cold shoulder last time, they solemnly apologized to me and said they wouldn't ignore my feelings anymore.

After all, we had been friends for so many years, and it wasn't something that could just be ended.

However, Emma was still following behind Lucas, always looking at Lucas and talking cheerfully.

Gabriel became even more silent than before. After seeing my relationship with Noah progress rapidly in class, he finally couldn't help but speak up, "Sophia, you're tutoring Noah in English?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

His expression darkened for a moment.

"Noah? You mean that guy who sits next to you?" Lucas chimed in, sounding a bit displeased.

"When did you get so close to him?"

"It's just classmates helping each other with homework, what's the big deal? Besides, he said he would help me improve my math too."

To be honest, I found Lucas's sudden anger a bit baffling.

Lucas retorted, "If you want help with math, can't you ask Gabriel?"

Gabriel's body seemed to stiffen for a moment.

I lowered my head and replied, "I sit closer to Noah, it's more convenient."
