My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 69

Chapter 69 Nicole walked indifferently, not bothering to respond to him.

Gary followed behind her. He was questioning her initially, but he was tired of it afterward, so he just left Nicole his words, “You’re on your own,” and left.

After he left, Nicole turned and walked to Mr. Louis’s office.

When Gary walked back to class, he had a long face.

Jack and Wayne saw his expression and thought that something big had happened. So they immediately went to Gary and asked, “What’s wrong, Gary? Who made you angry?” Gary clenched the pen in his hand tightly and responded chillingly, “Nicole placed a bet with Mr. Kennedy, betting that we’ll get the first place in the Math Olympiad competition. She sure has the guts to say that, though I’m the one who’s going to clean up her mess!”

Jack and Wayne looked at each other, and Jack recalled the time when Gary was rejected by Nicole when he offered to tutor her. So he got angry and said, “Nicole doesn’t know what she’s missing!”

Wayne nodded in response.

Gary did not want to talk any further and went back to his usual lazy self as he furrowed his brows and started looking at the questions.

At that moment, in Ms. Emerson’s office. Mr. Louis was surprised as he looked at Nicole, who was standing before her. After Mr. Louis recollected himself, he smiled and said, “How can I help you, Nicole?”

Nicole looked at his kind expression as she gradually said, “Mr. Louis, I’m here to inform you that I will be attending other pieces of training, so I can’t attend your Math Olympiad training class anymore.”

Mr. Louis was stunned, but he agreed without saying anything.

After Nicole left, the staff in the office asked him, “Mr. Louis, isn’t that the student who scored a zero? Why are you so nice to her? You’re allowing her to skip classes just because she said she couldn’t attend?”

Mr. Louis shook his head. He had looked at Nicole’s assessment paper multiple times. Although her math workings were messy and slightly different than the workings in the model answers, he found it extremely special

Mr. Louis felt like he could not catch up with Nicole’s approach. A genius was called a genius because of their distinctive thought process, which was always ahead of the average joe. Perhaps, Nicole was the true genius in their school. Nicole did not care how others perceived her. She went over to the caféteria to grab a meal and gave Mr. Ellison a phone call after she was done.

Mr. Ellison was elated upon receiving Nicole’s call. “What brought you here, Nicole? Did something happen in school? Just let me know if anything happens. I’ll resolve it for you.”
