Ophelia Gets Thrown Out (Ophelia) novel Chapter 134

134.Chapter 134

After hanging out with Ophelia for a few days, Ruby realized she was seriously next-level. Not only was she sweet and pretty, but she was crazy smart and super chill, honestly, one just couldn’t help but want to hang out with her.

Seeing Ruby looking a bit down, Ophelia couldn’t help but think, ‘Declan really is the campus heartthrob… Honestly, with someone like him, it’s no wonder everyone likes him.’

But then Ophelia’s thoughts wandered to Alaric. Connor had said that back in the day, Alaric was just as popular with the girls. ‘If Alaric and Declan were at school together, the scene would be absolutely legendary,’ she mused.

“Ophelia, what’s wrong?” Ruby’s voice pulled her back to reality.

Ophelia froze for a second, her expression awkward. ‘Wait, was I just thinking about Alaric? Seriously?’

She shook her head and slapped her forehead. ‘Girl, what are you even doing?’ she scolded herself.

“Are you okay?” Ruby gave her a worried look.

Ophelia took a deep breath, collecting herself. By the time she glanced at Ruby, she wore an air of breezy nonchalance and shook her head. “I’m fine,” she said quietly.

‘Ugh, Alaric must’ve gotten under my skin yesterday,’ Ophelia thought. ‘No wonder he keeps popping into my head.’

As they were chatting, Jaxon Lewis raised his voice, “Quick announcement! Mathletes, don’t forget, first period this afternoon, training session in the Multi-purpose Room.”

“Got it!” everyone chimed in.

Ophelia instinctively glanced over at Zoe. This time, Zoe didn’t look away, instead, she shot Ophelia a smug, almost triumphant look. Ophelia’s eyes narrowed slightly.

‘What’s Zoe, the little schemer, up to now?’ Ophelia wondered. ”

During the break after second period, Ophelia suddenly realized exactly what Zoe was scheming.

News about Alaric and Zoe was trending hard online, everyone was talking about it.

There was a photo taken in front of the Rowle family’s villa, showing a guy and a girl caught in what looked like a goodbye hug.

Zoe’s face was clear as day, and even though the guy was just a silhouette, anyone familiar with Alaric would recognize him instantly.

Someone even wrote a whole essay online, speculating that their wedding was just around the corner…

Ophelia arched a brow, a sly little smirk curling at her lips.

‘So that’s what that little schemer Zoe was plotting yesterday, she made sure I couldn’t see Alaric off, just so she could pull this move, Ophelia thought.

All it took was a photo and a trending headline, and Zoe actually thought she could use it to get a hold over Alaric.

‘Hasn’t she known Alaric for years? How could she ever think he’s the type to be played so easily?’ Ophelia thought, a trace of amusement in her eyes.

Soon, it wasn’t just a photo and an article anymore, but netizens were already stirring up drama online.

[Mr. Caldwell and his fiancée are total couple goals!]

[He’s handsome, she’s gorgeous, OTP, for real!]

[Just get married already!]

The comment section exploded with posts blessing and shipping the two of them, one after another.

Ophelia scrolled through the posts, then put her phone away with an indifferent expression, she really couldn’t care less. Meanwhile, Zoe was absolutely thrilled, she wanted everyone to know that she was Alaric’s fiancée, and Ophelia was just the third wheel trying to snatch him away.

“Hmph, Ophelia, go ahead and chase after Alaric all you want. You won’t get another shot,” Zoe hissed under her breath, shooting daggers at Ophelia’s retreating figure.
