Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 692

Chapter 692 Rowen Did It On Purpose

News of Harper's fight with Isobel spread throughout the sophomore class in no time.

In the following classes, Harper wished nothing more than to tear Isobel apart.

The smoothie that had stained the school uniform was difficult to wash off once it dried. The summer uniform was already thin, and it became see-through if it got a little wet. Harper couldn't wash off the stain from the smoothie, and she could see it every time she looked down.

The news reached Janice, who specifically called the two individuals out to the corridor for a discussion.

Fortunately, despite her anger, Harper had become much calmer. She was no longer as stubborn as before. She didn't admit to fighting, only confessing that she had a quarrel with Isobel after Isobel splashed her with the smoothie.

Harper, standing next to Isobel, said the two had fought. Hearing Harper's words, Isobel didn't dare to say anything. Janice looked at Isobel and asked, “Is what Harper said true?”

Isobel nodded repeatedly. “Yes. I accidentally spilled some smoothie on her. We had a bit of an argument, but no, we didn't fight, Ms. Strickland.”

Janice glanced at Harper, then at Isobel. “All right. In the future, for small matters, it's better to give each other some leeway. What's the use of quarreling? Now, the whole grade knows that you two had a fight during physical education class, a fight that was so heated it couldn't be resolved. Some people even said you two were physically fighting.”

Harper kept her head down, not saying a word. Isobel also didn't dare to speak.

Janice spoke earnestly for a while, then fell silent. After all, both of them were girls. Even if they really fought, it would just be a bit of pushing and pulling.

“All right. Go back to class,” Janice instructed.

The moment Janice turned around and left, Harper glared fiercely at Isobel. “I'm warning you, Isobel. If you provoke me again, I won't hesitate to bring up your past!”

Harper was not one to dwell on the past. She used to be in the same class as Isobel, and she knew all about Isobel's affairs. But at that moment, they were both in their second year of high school and at a new school. Isobel had essentially started afresh, and Harper didn't want to bring up the past.

Isobel's face stiffened. “I don't want to argue with you either. It's embarrassing.”

“What do you mean, Isobel? Are you taking my kindness for granted?”

Seeing that an argument was about to start again, Isobel quickly ran into the classroom.

Visibly upset, Harper returned to her seat. Just as Celine was about to go and comfort her, Rowen suddenly tugged at her from the side. “What does this word mean?”

Celine had no choice but to shift her gaze back, and upon looking, she said, “It's a verb. It means hunting.”

News of Harper's fight with Isobel spread throughout the sophomore class in no time.

“Oh.”

No sooner had Rowen responded than the class bell rang.

Celine pursed her lips, waiting until after school to comfort Harper.

This was the final class of the day, a biology lesson. The biology teacher disliked running overtime. As soon as the bell signaling the end of class rang, she announced, “Class dismissed.”

It seemed that Isobel was scared of Harper. As soon as the class ended, she grabbed her backpack and ran off.

Rowen's parents returned from their trip that day and came to the Lewis residence for dinner. Katherine instructed Rowen to tell Celine to return home early.

So, after school, Rowen didn't leave with Irving. He picked up his backpack and stood at the door, waiting for Celine.

Celine quickly tidied up while Harper was moving at a snail's pace. Rowen grew somewhat impatient. “I'll wait for you at the bike shed.”

“Oh. Okay.”

Celine felt a bit embarrassed, but she knew that Harper was in a bad mood.
