My Billionaire Boss Is Jealous Of My Boyfriend - Chapter 50
She was a bright and well-known student in the class, and even if she had dėsɨrėd to stay back in the medical room and a rest she would have been allowed. Nobody would have minded. Nevertheless, Casey could not stay back.
She could not stay back just because of Ethan Wang! His words hurt her badly. His speech was harsher than his grip around her skin. Everywhere his finger touched, left a stinging pain for Casey but she refused to halt.
She was not a coward to stay back in an isolated place and feel bad of whatever that spoiled brat told her. She was strong. And with the motive to show him who she was, Casey proudly crawled towards the classroom.
“May I come in, ma’am?” Having reached the door, Casey softly asked the teacher who was teaching the class.
Along with the teacher, the eyes of the classmates sitting inside moved their pupils to the door and gawked at her face. She looked sick and pallid. Her lashes were wet with moisture while her lips wearily smiled at the teacher who inched closer to the threshold of the classroom to attend her.
“Casey, are you okay dear?” the teacher asked as she forwarded a hand to Casey for helping her enter the class.
Everyone saw her walking difficultly with her bandaged knee. Many sympathized with her while there were a bunch of girls who spurned her for getting hit by Ethan’s car!
“Thank you, ma’am. I am fine, it is just that the people who hit others have no manners at all. They make mistakes and still have the courage to talk arrogantly.” she directly pointed at Ethan while the teacher helped her sit in her seat.
She sounded angry and annoyed, even the teacher can very well understand her frustration, but unfortunately, her lips were sealed tight. She preferred to stand quiet while Casey blamed Ethan for her condition.
He was a goddamn son of a rich merchant who was also donating the school with his money: there was no way she could express her disappointment. In fact, the teacher tried to help Casey get some justice by getting Ethan suspended notwithstanding, the Principal denied.
He rather requested the teacher to allow Casey a sick leave and get the matter dead!
That was unfair but true.
“Nobody has asked you to walk in the middle of the road! You got that injury because of your own mistakes. So don’t try to throw your blames on others.” Ethan along with the teacher and the other classmates in the class turned their heads towards their right at Tina who interrupted the silence.
She was standing beside her seat and flaring anger out on Casey for speaking against Ethan. The teacher sensed the growing tension and raised her hands in the air, “Alright! Stop it or you will be kicked out of the class. Let’s get back to the class.” Tina quietly sat in her chair not before glaring at Casey as the teacher’s tone expressed more of her frustration towards her and not the class’s president.
“Whatever.” She murmured opening up a book and busied herself in it.
He knew he was at fault too. His driver was actually talking to Ethan’s mother while driving the car. That was right that the Ho sisters were in the middle of the street but it was also a path where the speed of the cars were expected to be low.
It was in fact advised to avoid driving vehicles until there since many students padded on that path. Ethan had known that, even then he ended grumbling at Casey’s sister all because he was mad!
He himself felt bad for becoming the cause behind her wounds, but he was angry. He was annoyed for being turned down by Casey last day.
His feelings for her were genuine. He could not understand why she cannot see them? She probably backed out just because of their status. And Ethan used it to hurt her today when she tried to blame him for everything.
He was not the one to be blamed alone as it was her only who provoked him to say all that. Well that was what he ȧssumed.
Ethan looked from the corner of his eyes the tear drops appearing on the corner of her eyes. She was trying to concentrate in the class while the teacher resumed her teaching.
He closely saw her knee and the bandage that had turned dark red and wet with her blood soaking within the gauze. She was advised to rest but this girl purposely came here. And it hurt him somewhere to see her like that.
Ethan stared at her profile that entertained pain and agony. He bit his tongue when Casey lifted her hand to clean her cheeks. Her tears were constantly brimming in her eyes yet she chose to look at the green board as the teacher solved the math problems.
(After the lecture)
He was waiting for the teacher to say something to him but when he heard her address Casey, his eyes lifted up and blinked at the teacher, “Look Casey, the Principal has asked me to get this matter solved. He was really annoyed to know that you and your sister caused an accident before the school.” He shockingly changed his gaze from the teacher to Casey’s face simultaneously as he realized she was putting the entire blame on Casey.
He held his eyes on Casey’s face for a while as she herself looked shocked and amused, “I am sorry ma’am, but did you just say that I caused the accident!” she exclaimed astonishingly.
The teacher tried to put on a stern face and glare at her for raising her voice of doubt, but she failed. Even she knew that Casey was not wrong; however, it was about the reputation and funding of the school. She helplessly had to growl in order to make it look like Casey was wrong here but Ethan.
“Enough Casey! I didn’t tell anything back in the class too when you blamed Ethan Wang. We have seen the CCTV footage, it was clearly visible that it was you and your sister who were blindly walking in the middle of the street.” the teacher raised her voice, taking Ethan and Casey off guard.
“But Ma’am!” With her voice heavy and eyes expressing utmost shock, Casey attempted to speak to the teacher but she showed her a hand.
“Enough now. It is better if you stop it here. You both are wrong, and it would be better if you apologize to each other and end it right here. Think about the school’s reputation and discipline. We don’t want to attract bad reviews from the parents and other students, Casey. You already saw that everyone holds you wrong. So it is better if you guys stop it right here and now and get done with this matter now. ” The teacher said at one while Casey painfully smiled with her hanging head.
Why would the school take her side when they know that she was hit by a rich kid’s car?
It obviously has to be her fault as she happened to be the poor one here!
Casey took a deep breath before she raised her head again. Her lips gruesomely quivered as she struggled to part them and say, “I get it. Thank you so much.” She sarcastically forced her mouth into an agonized grinned and excused herself to leave.
“Alright, then. You must leave. And make sure you don’t get into any sort of problem like this anymore. We will not save you again and again.” He nodded again with a disturbed heart and mind that was thinking about Casey and her eyes.
She was not wrong yet she was blamed. This was the reason why she avoided dating him probably.
