57 Glare (1/2)
Jameson had not graduated. He was still in class, sitting with his peers when I entered the room. He didn't notice me at first. He spoke to the girl next to him, curiously flirting and trying to help her with notes. I smirked as I got in, minutes before Sebastian would make his appearance.
I stood at the front of the class, preparing the slideshow that Sebastian was going to present that day when I heard a voice calling me.
”Evie?” it said. I looked up calmly to see Jameson at the front of the class, looking at me with his eyes bulging out of his socket. I couldn't help but smile at his expression.
”What are you doing here?” he asked, much to my amusement. I didn't offer any replies and continued on with my work. It seemed that word had not gotten out about the female assistant Sebastian had acquired, or it was simply that he wouldn't have guessed it would be me. I was not a teaching assistant so I didn't require a degree in the subject to do all his menial work. It was curious how all these students knew more than me about the subject. It was frankly a bit humiliating that I wouldn't know even half as much as them when it came to questions that Sebastian asked them, despite being his personally appointed assistant.
”Did you transfer into our department? Or are you taking extra classes.” For a man who was in criminal psychology class, he was quite unobservant; no wonder Sebastian had let him go and searched for another assistant.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
”No,” I said bluntly, stunning him. He looked at me again, with his mouth gaping.
”Then what are you doing here?” he asked, a small smile on his face. As if he thought I was there for him.
”Are you here to confess your undying love for me?” his voice was unpleasant to hear. I wanted to glare but my professional side peeked out.
”Please don't speak inappropriately in class,” was all I said. He didn't budge. There were whispers running throughout the room, people pointed and spoke in hushed tones as they referred to me. Some remained silent, curiously looking at the exchange. I remained calm, waiting for his comeback.
”Aren't you going to join me? I didn't think that my words would somehow make you start following me around. I will have you know that following someone around is a crime in all states, but I will allow you to do so.” Annoying. That was what he was.
”I'm sorry, I dislike people who are incompetent. And you strike me as the type.” Snickers followed, but I didn't pay much attention. Jameson himself chuckled at my words, baffling me. He still seemed to hold that smirk on his face, triumphant that I had spoken further. Maybe he liked being humiliated.
I heard the shuffling of feet and instantly knew it was Sebastian who had entered the class. I smiled a little as I turned to face him.
