Chapter 127 She Has a Partner!

Despite being a new apprentice like Jane, the seniors were all circling Cora

alone, while Jane’s side was practically similar to a deserted land.

However, Jane still didn’t think that she was not popular, or that it was wrong for

her to be cold and aloof.

She assumed that it was probably because those seniors knew that she was the

only girl in the Yoris family and that she had already carried the status of Byron’s

fiancée. That was why they didn’t dare to get close to her.

As for their attraction toward Cora, they probably weren’t genuinely attracted to

her. They must be thinking that Cora was easy to trick, being that she was of an

ordinary family background.

Having such a thought made her feel slightly better.

At the same time, under the seniors’ incessant questioning, Cora replied with a

smile, “I have a boyfriend.”

She seemed to be responding to those seniors, but she was actually looking at

Jane.

Enter title…

It was because the boyfriend she mentioned was the same person Jane thought

was her fiancé.

However, she didn’t directly refer to Byron as her boyfriend. After all, she was

aware that Byron didn’t consider them to be in a romantic relationship.

When Jane heard Cora’s words and looked at her, she also felt that Cora’s eyes

seemed to contain another meaning.

But she couldn’t figure it out for the time being.

As for the boyfriend Cora mentioned, Jane automatically recalled when Tyler said

that Cora was his girlfriend during Gideon’s birthday banquet, so Jane thought

Cora was talking about Tyler.

After hearing Cora’s straightforward clarification that she had a boyfriend, some

seniors inevitably felt a little disappointed.

“Ah, I knew it. Such a beautiful girl wouldn’t be single.”

But some continued to joke with Cora, “Then do you mind having a hokup?”

Cora couldn’t help laughing. “Guys, stop making fun of me. I can be a two-timer

when I’m unhappy, you know.”

When Jane heard it, she thought it was a bit ridiculous.

After all, the fact that Cora could get along with Carter after she broke up with

Eason was the best evidence that she was a two-timer.

The more she watched the interaction between Cora and those seniors, the more

she perceived that Cora was hypocritical and showing off.

After the ceremony, Arnold assigned a task to them. He gave each of them a

block of wood and a blueprint, asking them to carve out what was on the

blueprint in a week.

The seniors’ blueprints had relatively complicated things drawn in them, but Cora

and Jane were only assigned to create relatively simple and small objects.

“I don’t think you’ll find it difficult, kid,” Arnold said when he handed the blueprint

to Cora.

But when he handed it to Jane, Arnold said, “If you find some difficulties here,

just ask me to help you.”

Jane only started learning today, unlike Cora who had already mastered certain

basic skills, so Arnold’s advice was considered normal.

However, since Jane had an emotional roller coaster today, she could only feel

that Arnold was looking down on her.

Out loud, she replied, “I know.”

But in her heart, she secretly swore that she must produce a more prominent

work than Cora next week.

When the apprenticeship ceremony had thoroughly ended, Arnold worried that it

would not be safe for Cora to go back by car alone, so he suggested his

apprentices drive her home.

But Jane had come up and volunteered herself. “Just let me drive Dr. Lane back.

It’ll be more convenient for us girls.”

No one could refute her suggestion, so Cora got into her car.

On the way back, the two remained silent for a long time. It seemed that they

were holding back from something out of politeness, but in fact, it was a secret

contest between both sides.

It wasn’t until the car almost reached the section of the LO apartment where Cora

lived that Jane finally asked her politely while also restraining herself, “Dr. Lane,

I’m curious as to why you accepted my grandfather’s invitation to be his

apprentice.”

“Probably because of passion,” Cora replied with a smile.

No matter how one looked at her smile, they would find a bit of hypocrisy in it.

Jane only looked at Cora through the rearview mirror. “I don’t think it’s because of

passion.”

“Then what do you think my reason would be, Dr. Yoris?” Cora said, and she

didn’t avert her gaze.

Inside the cramped car, the two girls seemed to inexplicably spark a flame when

they looked at each other through the rearview mirror.
