Chapter 4

That very afternoon, Derek came looking for me.

For the past three years, Aria had spread rumors around school that I was obsessed with him.

So naturally, everyone assumed I was in trouble again.

They crowded around the door, eager to watch the drama unfold.

But instead, they saw Derek look at me with genuine respect and ask:

“Josie, can I pay you to tutor me?”

The class exploded.

“Josie’s grades aren’t even as good as yours! Why would you ask her to tutor you?”

“Plus, doesn’t she have a crush on you? Aren’t you worried she’ll just use it as an excuse to hit on you and distract you from studying?”

Derek frowned. “Where did you even hear that? It’s all bullshit. Josie’s never bothered me.”

Since Derek was good-looking, came from money, and was a teacher’s pet, no one dared argue.
