Chapter 76 An honorable man (1/2)
Harry almost fell but he managed to balance his body. But the person he bumped into was not that lucky. His eyes widened seeing a woman lying on the floor. The hair covering her face but he could see how fit she was. Luckily for her, she was wearing black jeans and a green and white blause. So she did not expose anything when she fell.
He quickly leaned down to help her up.
”I am so sorry. I did not see you.” He helped her to sit up and watched carefully in case she was hurt.
She muttered something under her breathe and flipped her hair to glare at him. Now he could see her face clearly.
Her glare made him stunned. His heart skipped. Oh no...
”Mrs... Mrs... Lee...” he stuttered.
From all of the people he could bump into, it was his 'luck' to make one of his lecturers to fall. And this particular lecturer, although still young, was infamous for being strict and very cold.
She came to the class with a scowl and left the class with a bigger scowl. No one dared to make any sound during her lesson. That was how terrifying she was!
He should check his horoscope this morning once he woke up. He should be!
Now he was hit by bad luck after bad luck.
So annoying.
He quickly pasted a smile and helped, well, tried to help Mrs. Lee to stand. It seemed like she was not injured anywhere, well, except for her ego.
He could not help on that, though.
”I am so sorry, Mrs. Lee. I did not notice you just now,” he tried to soothe her feeling but she pushed his hand away and muttered something under her breath.
”I'm sorry, Mrs. Lee. I didn't catch that,” he thought she was talking to him but his innocent question was replied with another glare.
Guess it was not for him.
He gulped nervously. What should he do now? She held his marks. And this was the last semester for him before he started his training!
He was screwed... all over...
He took another deep breath and gave more watt to his smile. ”Mrs. Lee, would you like me to help you carrying those bags?”
She heaved and grunted. But she did not answer his question. She simply collected all the bags around her and started to move away, well, stormed away.
Watching her leaving furiously made him even mad. This was all Lia's fault!
If that girl did not come to his home, he would not come here and had this incident with Mrs. Lee. Now, his future was a huge question. Would he pass her subject or would she made him fail?
”Great. Just great.”

Ryn blinked her eyes sleepily and smiled. Today, finally she had no show to go. She had finished all her assignments and works. Her flight to go home would be tomorrow. She agreed to Jeremy's suggestion to extend for another day so he could show her around.
