Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1363

He hung up and then turned to look out the windows. The students were sitting on stools outside, listening to Cain's lecture. Cain was writing on the mobile whiteboard as he spoke. Edgar looked between him and Maggie, trying to figure out what had happened between them.

He hoped that he got it wrong and that there was nothing between his wife and Cain. But he was unable to convince himself.

Time flew fast when people got busy. A month passed while the students experienced more physical training and had to take tests. The new year was drawing near. Everyone was excited for the upcoming vacation. However, the vacation benefited students who lived close by. The students who came from farther away wouldn't have time to go back home.

After vacation, these specially trained students would be further trained in groups according to their abilities and preferences. Therefore, the vacation would be a precious time for them.

Edgar was leaning against the door of the cross country vehicle, wearing a pair of leather gloves and holding a lighted cigarette between his fingers. Different from his usual military get-up, today he wore causally. He also wore a pair of rimless glasses which covered his eagle-like eyes. As he lowered his head slightly, the wind blew and hit him, blowing the cigarette smoke into his face, which added to his charm. His allurement came naturally as though he was born with it.

Everyone who passed him turned to look at him; some girls stared and couldn't help but drool a little when they saw how attractive and glamorous he looked. When Maggie walked out of the building, she was drawn to him as well. Noting how the others were reacting to him, she felt upset, but she hid her anger as she walked over to Edgar. But before she could reach him, Cain came out of nowhere and walked in front of her, blocking her path.

Cain was another type of cool. He always wore a slight smile on his well-shaped face. The smile was slight but warm rather than wicked, cold or sardonic. Looking up at him, Maggie wondered why Cain was always treating her so unkindly. Not only was the physical training tough, but he also made it hard for her outside of the training sessions, such as when they happened to cross paths.

Maggie had no idea to handle this. At first, she was outraged. But after it happened so many times, she found it foolish to be angry about it for longer. It might even be an exaggeration to say that he made fun of her. But every time she saw him, she really didn't know how to make him stop messing with her.

Now, they were on vacation and did not wear their military uniform. She had no reason to be polite to him like before—in fact, Cain did not hold a military rank title. She tried to smile at him but failed, which resulted in her lips twitching. Then she decided not to interact with him, so she sped up in hopes of passing him quickly. Unfortunately, Maggie hadn't learned from her past experiences with Cain. In front of her stood a sophisticated psychologist. Just before she did anything, he would know what she was going to do.

Cain smiled at her. "You are going home now?" He looked at her as though she were prey. "Do you mind giving me a ride?"

What a shameless request! How naturally he asked too, as if they owed him favors, as if they were going to do anything for him. He must be playing a joke on her. Maggie was never good at saying no, and Cain would know that.

To his surprise, however, she shook her head. With all the courage she could muster, she said, "Firstly, me coming back has nothing to do with you." She had a feigned smile on her lips as she was speaking. "Secondly, I do mind." She paused for a moment, then her feigned smile widened. "Thirdly, that's not my car. It's Edgar's. You should be asking him not me!" Then she glared at him and walked by him quickly, heading over to Edgar, who had been watching them for a while.

But Cain wasn't finished. He turned around and looked at her back. "I'm having dinner at your house. How can this have nothing to do with you?" He asked in a confusing tone, showing that he was bewildered. But anyone who heard him could tell that he was being sardonic.

She clenched her fists and turned around to look back at him. "Well, well... I have seen a multitude of horrible people in this world. But I have never seen anyone who's on par with you! Excuse me but can you please tell me when I ever invited you to my house? Or Edgar has invited you?"

Cain ignored her words of anger, shaking his head slightly. Maggie fumed more. His nonchalant attitude really irritated her and she was just about to yell and curse him out, but even so, she heard what he said next. "If you have to know, your father invited me for dinner at your house. Your father invited me. And he also told me that you would give me a ride."

He said those words innocently, which made Maggie feel dejected. She gritted her teeth and cursed Cain. Also, she blamed his father for this unexpected invitation. Then Edgar walked over to them, which was a testament for Cain's words. Maggie couldn't say anything to rebuff Cain anymore; the last thing she wanted to do with get into the car with a grudging mind.
