47 She was being bullied (2/2)
”Yes, in fact I got this”
She took out a recorder and showed it to the group. Not just one but many students bullied her while they were away for almost a week. Many insulted her and some had even physically hit her.
”I heard that the reason why she refused to join this mission was because she needed to talk to Tristan.” Cheska said confidently while looking intently at Henry. She kept the orb which contained the recorded scene from the Gray Academy.
”Yes, she said it.” Henry admitted.
”Wow, Madel is dating someone now?” Helen blurted.
Francis smirked at her remark. In his opinion, Madel was obviously interested with Henry. [what a fool]
Henry's expression darkened with her remarks.
”That man is play boy”
[this is interesting] Francis said to himself while observing the group.
”She did meet with him but they never talked to each other. Based from my intel, they simply sat opposite to each other in a pergola in the apothecary department and read books.”
Henry immediately remembered his suspicion that the two can communicate thru telepathy. To establish a spiritual line with someone with no spiritual power one must exert a lot of zhenqi and time. Since there was no available site to connect with, a site must be built in her system so that she will be able to transfer and receive information.
”Before they separate ways, Tristan gave Madel a single stalk of white flower.”
”That's so sweet. In our world giving a single flower to a lady means devotion and faithfulness. It says that 'you are the only flower in my life'” Helen said with a sweet expression.
”Let me bet, nobody has given you a flower before?” Francis interrupted her.
”Duh, I have a lot of rich suitors back in planet hi…” Helen paused. Where did she said, she live again? The first time she lied? Did she mention it? She was not a good liar.
”Huh, you must have had lots of old suitors with poor eye sight.” Francis scoffed.
”What did you say?” Helen pinched his face. He retaliated equally until they chased each other like cat and mouse again.
”Madel, called a bird and send that stalk of flower to someone.” Cheska said with a serious expression.
”Stupid girl” Henry blurted as he sipped his tea.
While he wanted to ask Cheska what happened to Madel for the rest of the week, he opted not to.
”When do we do this?” he asked.
”What, which one? Cheska was confused.
”The act.”
Cheska gave him smile of a winner. Her ability to overturn a plot and scheme was as good as her ability to retaliate. With such ability, Henry knows that she can run a household with ease. She was indeed a perfect future wife.
”Your acting will be needed next week. But I will be setting the stage tomorrow morning. You continue monitoring our patient tomorrow.” She said with a smile.
