✿ CHAPTER 22 ✿
AMELIA'S POV
"I don't believe it, so he's your Mr. fling!!" Sofiya gasped
"why are you acting like you don't know" I face palmed myself.
"Well, I just wanted to act surprised..." she smirked.
"No wonder he keeps looking at you now and then...but he's handsome though" Sofiya nudged my arm.
"Shut up"
"So as his cute assistant behind him...but why does he keep flinching whenever he meets my gaze...am I that sexy?"
Sofiya leaned back in the chair as she winked at Leonard's assistant.
"Eww!, Sofiya!!"
"What...he looks cute!"
"Hey you two are disrupting Mr. Leonard's speech" Mr Martins warned I and Sofiya.
I suddenly felt Leonard's gaze on me again...why me!!!
"Miss, what's your name?" Leonard asked me with a slight grin
Why was he suddenly acting like he didn't know my name...
"My name is Amelia"
"Ok, Amelia...what was the last thing I said?"
Huh? The last thing he said? Was he even saying something?
"Can't think of anything? Or perhaps you weren't paying attention to what I said last?"
Why was he being too smug about this now?
"Well, I-"
"Maybe she was thinking about her boyfriend!" a voice said from the back seat. Everyone laughed.
I knew who that voice belonged to...that stupid bitch!...
"Boyfriend?" Leonard had a slight frown on his face when he heard this...
"Uhm...Mr. Leonard please ignore them and continue with your-"
"Hey!, Stephanie!, you bitch...how did you know she has a boyfriend!...you harlot!" Sofiya stood up and she attacked Stephanie my ex-best friend.
Everyone began whispering when they heard this...
"What now!... Doesn't she have a boyfriend but still go ahead sleeping with other men?" Stephanie crossed her arms over her chest, a devilish grin on her face as she glared at me with resentment...
Everyone began whispering as they pointed fingers at me...
"Hey!...you both should stop with this bickering!...don't you see we have a guest here!!" Mr. Martins raised his voice...
The whole class immediately went silent...but Sofiya was fuming red as she glared at Stephanie who had a smug look on her face, she was doing this on purpose, trying to defame me...
I noticed Leonard clench his fists tightly...it seemed like he was trying to control himself over something...I suddenly had a weird feeling in my chest...
"I think today's lecture ends here, Principal Martins" Leonard gave a slight smile...
"I'd love to have this meeting another time with your students"
"But Mr. Leo-" Principal Martins tried to walk towards Leonard before-
"We'll see next time Principal Martins," Leonard's assistant said as he suddenly appeared in front of Principal Martins...
I watched as Leonard walked out of the class with all the school directors following behind him and the principal...I suddenly felt guilty...this was all my fault...
"Now he's gone!...all because of some stupid bitch who couldn't keep her face hole shut!!" Sofiya said angrily at Stephanie...
"What did you just say to me?" Stephanie got up from her seat...
"Oh...did I push a button?... Too bad because you're the bitch who goes around sleeping around with people's boyfriends!...even Amelia's boyfriend, your own best friend"
"Do you have any evidence against me for allegedly sleeping around?" Stephanie smirked...
"Oh, this bitch, still trying to act tough huh-"
"Sofiya let's go home" I picked up my and Sofiya's bag and pulled her towards the door as she rained insults at Stephanie....
"Even the person you're defending can't even speak for herself... how pretentious"
I halted in my steps...
Pretentious?
"You know what, Amelia just ignore her let's go-"
"Pretentious? Well, I'm not as pretentious as Someone who sleeps around with our male lecturers just to get good grades" I grinned...
Everyone gasped when they heard what I said...stephanie's smug face immediately fell as she glared at me with hatred evident in her eyes...
"What? Did I lie about that Stephanie?"
