Ian pretended not to hear and ignored him.
Seeing Ian's attitude, the teacher got scared and quickly came over.
The teacher asked, "Mr. Bourne, what do you need Ian's bag for?"
Both were people he didn't dare to mess with.
After weighing the options, he felt that it was even riskier to mess with Elijah.
So he took Ian's bag out of his desk.
The teacher said, "Ian, don't be scared. Mr. Bourne isn't a bad guy. He's just worried about you." The teacher comforted Ian and handed the bag to Elijah, "He passed the security check when he entered the school, there's nothing dangerous in his bag."
"I remember he had a laptop," Elijah said as he took the bag.
The bag was light, and he frowned.
When he opened the bag, there was only a set of spare clothes, no laptop at all.
The teacher said, "Oh... Ian does have a small laptop, he usually likes to watch cartoons alone..." The teacher explained.
Elijah put down the bag, looked down at Ian, and asked, "Why didn't you bring your laptop today?"
Ian lay on the table, pretending to sleep.
The teacher awkwardly laughed and said, "Should I call his mom?"
Ian suddenly stood up, glared at the teacher with a meaningful look, and then picked up his bag and walked out.
The teacher hurriedly chased after him, shouting, "Ian, come back! I won't call your mom!"
Ian ignored her completely and continued to walk quickly towards the exit.
Makayla was at the door, and seeing Ian walk out, she timidly called out, "Ian."
Ian gave her a cold look and walked away even faster.
Elijah came out and saw his sister following Ian, grabbed her forcefully, "Makayla, where are you going?"
"Ian!" Makayla pointed at Ian, looking worried, "Where is he going?"
"His teacher will take care of him. I'll take you back to class." Elijah said, but Makayla pulled away from his hand and ran after Ian.
Makayla was out shopping for the first time and found the outside world fascinating.
Her eyes were wide open, staring at everything around her.
Elijah was watching her.
Sarah had said that letting her experience the outside world would be good for her condition.
Before, she rejected everything outside, so he couldn't take her out. After the last surgery, her changes were obvious. She began to take an interest in the outside world.
It was a significant improvement.
Seeing Makayla's change, Elijah thought of Sarah. Maybe, he should be nicer to Sarah. After all, she was the only one who can save Makayla now.
Ian saw that they were still following him and stopped right in the middle of the street.
Elijah saw his intention and said to his sister, "Makayla, let's go back! It's too hot outside, we could get heatstroke."
Makayla was sweating profusely, but she shook her head determinedly, "Ian could get heatstroke too."
"Why do you want to follow him?" Elijah asked in confusion, "If he goes home, are you going to follow him there too?"
