Chapter 612
Vera was coming up for Carl and was excited to stop him. But when she saw him coming out of Nicole’s room, her face changed instantly. ‘Nicole is seducing Carl again!’ she thought, clenching her fingers, barely holding up a smile.” Carl!” she called out in a sweet voice.
Carl heard someone calling him and looked back toward the staircase. When he saw Vera stop at the landing on the second floor, an impatient look flashed in his eyes.
“What?”
Vera was happy that Carl finally looked at her. She reservedly walked up to Carl and said shyly, “Carl, how is your preparation for the robotic competition?”
Carl instinctively felt uncomfortable when Vera called him by his affectionate name. He looked coldly at Vera and said, “Everything goes as planned. One more thing, call me Carlisle.”
He was not used to being called that name by someone not too close.
Vera’s face turned pale upon hearing his harsh reply. She looked at Carl and said stutteringly,” I-I’m sorry, Carlisle. I-I heard that girl call you Carl yesterday, that’s why I….” She wanted to test if she could close the distance between the two of them, but Carl had heartlessly rejected her.
