Chapter 48 - YOU DIDNT HIT ANYONE (2/2)

”I fell.”

”Lie.”

Nikolai averted his gaze from her and mumbled. ”I fought someone yesterday.”

”Why?”

He shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly and closed his locker door. ”I don't know.”

Blue grew silent, as she followed behind him. She knew that his last answer was also a lie, but she didn't press any further.

The two of them had a different class, but they were heading in the same direction, thus they walked together.

But, when they turned the corner, they fell into a tardy group. A bunch of older students were laughing way too loudly. Someone even deliberately bumped into Nikolai and made him trip on his own feet.

Nikolai would fall if it was not for Blue, who grabbed his arm to steady him in time.

”Sorry, I tripped you shorty,” the boy sneered at him.

Blue knew this guy, he was two years older than them and was very annoying. A typical bad student, who loved to bully the weak.

”Wow! What happened to your face? Someone beat you?” he mocked Nikolai and the other five stupid boys laughed at that joke.

Blue wanted to smash living daylights out of him. She was tempted to do so.

”Do you want to end up like him?” Blue said coldly. She looked at the boys hard, as if she was going to tear them apart, which was not an impossible task for her to do.

”You better shut your mouth!” he snapped at Blue, but one of his friends came over to him and whispered something to his ear, which changed his expression.

The other people wouldn't be able to hear it, but Blue could. His friend told him that she was a McKeltar and better to not have any trouble with that family.

Therefore, the fight died out even before it started.

Those annoying boys walked out while sneering and mocking, but did nothing to provoke Blue and Nikolai further.

When you were in an elite school, your family name indeed mattered so much.

”You should be able to fight for yourself,” Blue spoke to Nikolai, and looked at the boy with a frown.

”I just fought someone yesterday.” He defended himself.

”You are a liar,” Blue grumbled, she then pointed at Nikolai's knuckles. ”You didn't hit anyone,” she stated.
