19 Chapter 19 (1/2)
Sarah was not very high-spirited and bubbly next day. Caroline was a tyrant. If someone ever displeased her, she wouldn't sit still until she wreaked havoc on them. Although the students of the their class promised to help them, it was out of impulse under the feeling of kinship. Now Caroline had noticed how stupid of her it was to spout those insults to Caroline.
She had tried to put Angelize in picture about her worries but all she earned was a careless look from Angelize. And there Sarah was dying with anxiety.
”Angelize why didn't you come to library?”, an angry voice said at her back when she was collecting books from her locker.
Earlier Christain has asked her to come to library to discuss the assignment. Angelize hadn't bothered to reply him. Angelize shrugged without turning back.
”I told you we can do the project in the last week”, Angelize replied in her typical casual tune.
”Angelize don't you care a little about your grades?”, his voice was suffused with reprimand.
If Angelize was not going to show up, how was Christain going to look into her and find the evidence that it was her who launched that virus in Noah computer?
So he used the excuse of grades.
Although he had no evidence, he knew it was her.
Without her how was he going to unravel the secrets around this mysterious girl. A challenge-a mystery was like a nourishment to his soul.
And he was dying to solve that riddle and his curiosity was starving to know the truth behind this girl.
”I do”, Angelize turned back and gave a perfunctory smile, ”But I don't really care about it as much as you do.”
The handsome and youthful face of Christain was darkened with annoyance. His pale blue eyes sparkled with piercing self-restrain.
”We can't do it in the last week”, he asserted.
”That's not my concern. I've a busy life. And I was not the one who asked to be your partner. So stop annoying me”
Angelize pushed him and walked away. But Christain followed her.
She was stopped once the she felt a warm hand tightly holding her wrist and pushing her around with a jerk.
So he was already on the edge?
”You are doing it deliberately. Aren't you?”, he contended disgruntled.”As long as you're willing to sit and talk with me, we can discuss the basic idea and operations. I've already thought of it, all that is left is discussion and it won't take just two hours”, his voice enunciated clearly.
Christain smiled deviously and his eyes lit up.
”I don't see any reason for you to reject when I've already done the basic work so unless you don't want to try it because you fear that doing well will put you in the first position and expose you”
”You have a right to fantasize freely”, she said impassively and got her wrist free from his grip with a jerk.
She thought for a moment.
”Alright. Since you've already planned out basic idea and operation, I really don't see any reasons to reject. So let's have a discussion on remaining sections”
Finally, he thought happily, the bird will be stepping in his trap.
Christain looked like a great burden has been lifted from his shoulders at the same time. As long as she was willing nothing could possibly go wrong. He could guarantee his grades.
Many times he has seen the girl with superior and highly complex books in her hands. Some were even unfamiliar to him. They were not available in library. If his surmise was right, one of that book was bought from darkweb that was even banned by government.
At first she didn't care much about others. But since she had found him discovering about them, she had subtle stopped using them openly.
His intuition has never betrayed him. He knew deep down there was something up with this girl. And no matter what, she was the reason behind that virus in Noah laptop.
