Chapter 274

When Madelyn returned to the classroom, everything seemed as usual. There were no noticeable

differences, except for Jadie taking over her spot in the Math Olympiad team. It was also

something that gave her a headache. After putting in so much effort, it all came to naught

eventually.

Class One’s curriculum was progressing rapidly. The teachers had covered all the textbooks’

content, and now everyone was in the revision phase. After being absent from school for so many

days, Madelyn needed to catch up on what she had fallen behind. However, what bothered her the

most was Forrest.

Jadie had been in Class One for a few days now. The class’s learning pace was so fast that there

was hardly any time to spare. As the last morning class ended, Jadie took an opportunity and

approached Madelyn during lunch break. “Madelyn, let’s have lunch together!”

Madelyn looked at her, “I still have something to do. You go ahead.”

Jadie tilted her head and noticed what she was busy about. “Study plan? What’s this for?”

Madelyn explained, “It’s for Forrest. His grades aren’t good. Since I promised to help him with his

studies, I can’t just give up halfway.”

“I see. Alright then! I’ll head off now. We still have classes later!”

Madelyn did this to provide Forrest with a goal, helping him understand what he needed to do.

After finishing, she headed to Class Six.

The sky was overcast today with a continuous drizzle. When Madelyn entered, she saw Forrest

resting his head on the desk. The classroom was already empty. Madelyn approached and patted

his shoulder. “Forrest, come with me to the library.”

Forrest woke up and swatted her hand away, “Stop bothering me.”

Sensing his off mood, Madelyn pulled a chair and sat beside him. She reached to touch his

forehead and said, “You aren’t fever. Forrest, did something happen to you recently? Weren’t you

planning to apply to Ventropolis University? If you keep slacking off like this, you won’t even

meet their minimum requirement.”

Madelyn’s nagging voice awakened Forrest. He propped his head with his hand, ran his fingers throughthe hair on his forehead, and turned to look at her. At this time, Madelyn noticed the

frustration, “I won’t go if I can’t get into Ventropolis University. Just stop bugging me.”novelbin

After finishing, Forrest left with his hands in his pockets.

“Forrest Arnold!” Even though Madelyn called after him, he still left without looking back.

“What’s wrong with him?’ Madelyn followed him worriedly. She found him ascending the stairs. withoutknowing where he was heading. Eventually, they reached the rooftop on the twelfth floor.

Leaning against the railing, Forrest held a cigarette between his fingers. “You really are

persistent, aren’t you? Can’t you just leave me alone?”

Madelyn ascended the last step and took a blue, translucent fruit candy from her uniform pocket.” Youlearned how to smoke at such a young age. Have you forgotten what the doctor said before? Nosmoking, no drinking. So you won’t end up with kidney deficiency.

“I don’t know what happened to you, but everyone has their hidden worries. Maybe this candy will helplighten your mood after eating it. I’ll chalk up your earlier words to frustration. We still have a three-hourtutoring session after school today. It’s at the same spot in the library.” Without disturbing him further,Madelyn turned and walked downstairs.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind, “Is… the Arnold residence fun?”

“You want to know? Remember to come later, and I’ll tell you.” Madelyn turned her head slightly,casting a sideways glance at his figure.

After school, Madelyn went to the library.
