Chapter 147
Snow could not have been clearer about Nicole’s background. The Riddle family might have a long history, but it had long past its glory and could no longer be a deterrence for Cain. Something else must have made Cain feel so afraid.
She furrowed her brows in thought, not even noticing that Harvey had walked past her.
A thought came to mind when Harvey saw Snow. He suddenly changed direction and walked toward her. “What has just happened, and why are you standing here, Snow?”
A twinkle of surprise flashed across her eyes when Snow saw Harvey. But she felt a little curious at Harvey’s question. Could Harvey not know what had just happened earlier had something to do with Nicole, and so he had to ask her? But she quickly dismissed this idea and told Harvey what she had just seen. Hearing what she said, Harvey still had a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened. He then walked toward the school gate.
Just as she wanted to catch up with him, Harvey shot a look back at her. That kind of icy look was something she had never seen before in his eyes. She stopped in her tracks. Snow had been like a staunch believer who had been running toward the sun, but now the sun was no longer shining hot for her. She was at a loss and could not accept it. Hatred in her eyes gradually crept up. Harvey seemed indifferent to everything about her when he returned this time. But she gritted her teeth at the thought of Karen’s advice.
Soon it would be the weekend, the time when Karen would come and question her about how she and Harvey were going. But she did not know how to tell Karen that in just a week, Harvey had become indifferent to her.
