Chapter 9: He actually gave a ride to another girl!
Grace Bennett’s mind went blank all of a sudden.
Ethan Cole’s hand, it was so broad, and so warm.
It gave a sense of overwhelming security.
She momentarily forgot to pull away.
Ethan Cole was also extremely excited.
Grace Bennett’s hand was very soft, truly boneless.
It was cold, like holding jelly.
He wondered when he could openly do this again.
Once they got downstairs, Ethan Cole let go of her.
The young girl’s face seemed ready to steam.
Ethan Cole went to bring the bicycle over.
He patted the back seat: “Get on, if you refuse, I’ll tell the teacher you were reading a novel in class.”
Grace Bennett panicked: “I didn’t.”
Ethan Cole revealed a villainous smile: “Do you think the teacher will believe you or me?
You don’t really want to be scolded by the teacher, do you, classmate Grace Bennett?”
Grace Bennett felt like she had been completely manipulated by Ethan Cole.
She didn’t have any capacity to resist.
But she didn’t feel angry about it, nor did she reject it.
On the contrary, there seemed to be a strange feeling spreading from the bottom of her heart.
It was as if silently nourishing something imperceptible.
Maybe one day, it will blossom and bear fruit.
Grace Bennett carefully sat behind the bicycle.
Her small hands gripping the springs under the seat.
“Hold on tight, I’m about to get going.”
A faint smile appeared on Grace Bennett’s face.
Ethan Cole was her first friend in the real sense.
Even though they’d known each other for just two days.
But Grace Bennett felt as if they had known each other for a long time.
She silently motivated herself.
She must study well and go to the same university as Ethan Cole in the future.
As for what would happen after going to university, she hadn’t and didn’t dare to think about it now.
“Damn it, stinky Ethan Cole, dead Ethan Cole, I really want to chop you into pieces!”
Chloe Winters had been cursing Ethan Cole the whole way home.
After school, she deliberately waited at the school entrance for a while.
Just wanting to wait for Ethan Cole to come out and give her a ride home.
Who knew that she would wait for so long without any sign of him.
She had to walk home again today.
It was both tiredness and a waste of time.
Curse Ethan Cole, but also missed the days when Ethan Cole would take her to and from school regardless of the weather.
“Ding Ding!”
The sound of a bicycle bell came from behind.
Chloe Winters’s heart leaped.
That was Ethan Cole’s bicycle.
His bell sounded different from everyone else’s.
Once, because Chloe Winters commented casually.
Everyone’s bell sounds the same, too unpersonalized.
So Ethan Cole customized it some more.
The sound was clearer, and it penetrated even stronger.
“Humph, no matter how nice you talk, aren’t you coming to pick me up now?
I need to teach you a lesson later and can’t easily let you drive me.”
Chloe Winters thought to herself, her back straightening a bit.
The sound was getting closer.
The bicycle passed Chloe Winters.
But it didn’t stop as she had expected.
What was even more unbelievable to Chloe Winters was.
There was actually a person riding on the back of the bicycle.
Grace Bennett!
Ethan Cole actually gave her a ride?!
Chloe Winters felt completely ridiculous.
She couldn’t help but shout: “Ethan Cole, dammit stop!”
She felt terribly insulted.
In what way was she not superior to Grace Bennett?
Even if Ethan Cole were to find someone to provoke her, he should have found someone better.
What did all this mean?
Yet, Chloe Winters’s shouting did not make Ethan Cole stop. On the contrary, it only sped him up.
After his reincarnation, Ethan Cole did not want to have any more contact with this woman.
He avoided her as if she were a venomous snake!
