Chapter 34: Are You Mad at Me?
"Get in the car."
Olivier opened the front passenger door for her.
Gwenda ignored him and stubbornly held out her hand. "Give me the attendance sheet first." She said
haughtily.
Olivier chuckled. "I've handed it in to Mr. Smith."
"You..."
"But you can rest assured. I've already marked you as present on the sheet instead of early leave."
Hearing this, Gwenda breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh, then I'll be leaving."
With that, she turned to leave.
Eyes flashing, Olivier reached out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her back and pinning her against the
car door. His other hand came up to lift her chin with gentleness as he said, "Your habit of burning
bridges still haven't changed after two months, huh?"
"What are you doing? We're in school!"
Gwenda tensed up as her eyes darted wildly about in a fit of nervousness.
"Will you get in the car?"
Olivier stared at her while cocking an eyebrow slyly.
Gwenda gritted her teeth as she thought, "This scoundrel!"
"Will you get in the car or not?"
Gwenda helplessly said, "Fine, I will!"
"Now that's better!"
Ruffling her hair, Olivier let her go and opened the door, letting her get in. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
The car's engine started, and they left.
Gwenda glared coldly at the man sitting in the driver's seat and turned her head towards the window,
fuming in silence.
"This a*shole haven't changed a bit.
He still shows up whenever he wants to and does whatever he likes without explaining where he's
been these two months.
...
What happened?
Why did he suddenly show up again?
He's totally making a fool of me and it's absolutely abhorrent!" Gwenda thought bitterly.
Along the way, Gwenda remained moody until the car stopped.
...
"Why did you bring me here?"
She asked irritably when she looked up to see the restaurant before her.
Unbuckling his seat belt, Olivier said with a smile, "We're having a meal."
"I don't want to eat with you!"
"Well, I do."
Ignoring Gwenda's words, Olivier opened the passenger door and led her into the restaurant.
One of the waiters led them to the best spot in the restaurant where the view was stupendous.
Even so, Gwenda's bad mood never lifted.
She had too many questions gnawing at her heart.
At the same time, there was plenty of resentment churning within.
It made her mad every time she thought about how he disappeared without a trace for two months and
left his things behind. It made her question if he ever existed in the first place.
Finished with ordering their food, Olivier gazed at her angry face and chuckled. "You're still angry?"
Gwenda looked away and refused to answer him.
"Are you mad at me because I left without notice, or because I teased you earlier and said that you left
the class early on purpose?"
"Both!"
Gwenda thought with ire.
Seeing that she still refused to speak, Olivier smiled in resignation. "You don't want to know what I did
these past two months?"
Gwenda did want to know, of course. But when she spoke, it was the exact opposite of what she
wanted to say. "None of my business."
Olivier smiled again and spoke regardless of whether or not Gwenda wanted to listen to him. "The fire
from two months ago, that wasn't an accident."
Gwenda's head whipped over to face him.
Seeing that he had successfully attracted her attention, Olivier then said calmly, "That day, after you
left, the police contacted me."
