He glanced down at Isabella’s hands as he spoke.

They looked incredibly slender and delicate, which made the whole thing downright baffling.

Curiosity clawed at Noah’s chest like a cat.

It was the first time in his life he actually felt like sticking his nose into someone else’s business.

Isabella’s gaze remained completely indifferent as she gave him a fleeting glance, ignored him entirely, and sat down at her desk.

“Hey, you seriously don’t want my backup?”

Seeing that Isabella wasn’t going to give him the time of day, Noah clicked his tongue and sat up straight.

She was acting even more arrogant than him.

Noah was used to looking down on everyone, with people constantly groveling, finding topics to talk to him, and walking on eggshells just to avoid setting him off.

This was the absolute first time he had gone out of his way to strike up a conversation, only to be completely shut out.

That rejection instantly triggered his competitive streak.

Just as he opened his mouth to say more, Hannah approached from the other side of the room.

“Isabella,”

Hannah called out timidly, casting a cautious look at Noah before lowering her voice, “Isabella, can I talk to you for a second?

“Can we step outside?”

Before Isabella could answer, Noah shut her down with a freezing glare, “No, you can’t.”

His voice was pure ice, clearly irritated by the interruption.

“If you’ve got something to say, say it right here,

“Parading back and forth–what, do you think I’m invisible?!”

Noah’s tone was incredibly harsh.

Hannah bit her lower lip hard.

Having been snapped at by Noah earlier, she was still completely terrified of him.

In truth, she had intended to say it in front of the class anyway; asking to step out was just a polite formality.

Under Noah’s hostile glare, she tightly pressed her lips together and whispered in a fragile voice, “Isabella, Mia and the girls just told me about the incident at the volleyball courts, they said they accidentally offended you.”

She dropped her voice even lower, adding, “Isabella, Mia’s family business has deep ties with

ours.

“Her oldest brother is a major business partner of Adrian’s.

“Don’t you think it’s better to just drop the whole thing?”

She spoke with utmost softness, pretending to be completely looking out for Isabella. “You just returned to the Powell family, so starting a massive feud with the Bexleys is going to look really bad.

“If Adrian gets pissed off, I’m afraid Dad and Isaac won’t even be able to bail you out.

“It’s really just a minor misunderstanding, so can you please just let Mia and the girls off the hook?

“Mia promised they’ll come over and apologize to you later.”

Listening to Hannah’s spiel, Isabella let out a cold scoff, “Hannah, who gave you the right to dictate what I do?

“An apology?

“Mia and her pathetic crew owe me an apology regardless of what happens next.

“Furthermore, what do you mean by a minor misunderstanding?

“Are you talking about the part where they targeted me with a volleyball, ended up breaking their own noses out of sheer stupidity, and then falsely accused me of assault?”

She arched an eyebrow, staring intently at Hannah’s rapidly paling face as she added, “I guess it really is a minor issue to you–after all, you weren’t the one they tried to smash in the face, right?”

Cornered by Isabella’s sharp words, Hannah forced a weak smile. “Mia and the girls didn’t mean

any harm.

“They were just playing a harmless prank.”

Hannah bit her lip nervously.

She had initially wanted to claim that Mia and her crew made an honest mistake.

But the truth about the courtyard showdown had already spread like wildfire across the academy.

If she blatantly lied to cover for Mia now, it would look like she was openly taking their side, and Hannah didn’t want to get dragged down with them.

So she quickly shifted her narrative.

The moment Hannah finished speaking, Isabella merely scoffed.

Before she could even snap back, Noah chimed in with a mocking laugh, “Oh, so throwing a ball at someone, being too stupid to block the return shot, and then framing the victim is considered a harmless prank?

“Hey Hannah, mind if I play a harmless prank like that on you?”

Noah tilted his head, his eyes full of disdain.

He had an absolute zero–tolerance policy for idiots.

He could have ignored Hannah if she hadn’t come over to make a fool of herself.

But given the glaring facts, she still had the nerve to write it off as a joke.

What, did she think the rest of the class was completely oblivious to the truth?

Noah’s biting words made Hannah flinch violently, her teeth sinking into her lip.

She instantly recalled Noah’s terrifying reputation and ruthless personality.

Why the hell is Noah favoring Isabella so much?

What’s so great about her anyway?

She’s just an uneducated hillbilly from the middle of nowhere.

She doesn’t know the first thing about high–society politics.
