Chapter 442

Lorne was not a good person.

He used to be a school bully. Many students had been bullied by him back then. Thus, the majority of

the onlookers applauded after seeing him getting beaten up.

James was playing Plants vs. Zombies by himself.

There were a few who came to greet him.

He simply smiled and continued to play his game.

“James?”

A pleasant voice sounded.

James raised his head and saw a woman standing in front of him.

The woman had black hair, fair skin, and a pure appearance. She seemed to be about twenty-seven or

twenty-eight years old.

“Hmm?”

“Joan Dunn?” James frowned.

“Huh?novelbin

“Do you know me?” Joan was slightly taken aback.

James smiled and asked, “Do you need something?”

“Not really. I just came over just because your name is James,” Joan replied with a smile and sat

opposite James.

“Okay.”

James snorted and did not say anything more.

Joan glanced at James.

She knew the James in front of her was not the one she knew.

They just happened to have the same name.

However, she had an inexplicable attraction to him because the name set off some emotions in her

heart.

James felt slightly uncomfortable being stared at by a beautiful woman and could not concentrate on

his game peacefully. He put down his phone and asked indifferently, “Speak if you have something to

say.”

Joan smiled. “I-It’s nothing. I just wanted to sit here for a bit, can’t I?”

“Sure, why not.” James did not want to bother with her and got up to leave.

“Hey, wait.”

“Yeah?”

James glanced at her.

“Nevermind. It’s nothing…”

Joan initially wanted to chat with James, but he was not the person she knew, and there was no need

to do so.

Not far away, Thea and Quincy got together with some former students. Those who could join Quincy’s

circle were not ordinary and were successful. However, Thea kept thinking about James.

James had been sitting alone for a long time.

She was worried that James would be dissatisfied because she left him alone after bringing him out.

She was relieved to see a beautiful woman approaching James.

James would not be bored if a beautiful woman were chatting with him. It made Thea feel better.

Otherwise, she would feel bad if James kept sitting alone.

James noticed that Joan was in low spirits and sat down again.

He had a vague impression of Joan.

There were two bullies in Cansington High—Lorne and Joan.

Joan used to be a school bully dressed in gothic fashion and had a dozen subordinates following her.

She mingled with gangsters, drank, smoked, played poker, and did rebellious things.

Her grades were always at the bottom of the class.

However, she had a crush on the monitor—James.

James recalled that Joan wrote him a love letter once, but he rejected it.

He thought about the past events and touched his nose. These were all valuable memories.

“By the way, how have you been these past two years?”

James asked subconsciously after his memories were triggered seeing his classmate.

“M-Me?”

Joan was stunned momentarily. Then, she replied, “Back then, I wrote a love letter to our class monitor,

James but got rejected. He said I’d have to surpass his academic performance if I wanted to pursue

him. However, I only scored a little over a hundred points in the national college entrance

examination…”

Joan was puzzled as to why she said this much to James.

These things have been in her heart for a long time, and she wanted to complain to someone.

“Hmm?

“What happened after?” James asked with a light smile.
