“That smile of yours looks worse than crying.

“Just cut it out.”

With that, she pulled out a practice sheet she’d prepared earlier and set it in front of Noah. “Here. If you don’t believe me, try working through this.

“It covers the main topics from previous midterm exams.

“These are pretty much the core problems that usually show up.

“Give it a shot.”

When she said that, Noah mumbled under his breath, “No way it’s that spot-on.”

Even so, he took the paper from Isabella and started solving problems without another word.

By now, Noah was used to doing practice sets Isabella gave him.

Besides, his low mood didn’t last long-he bounced back quickly anyway.

Moping around wasn’t going to help; he still had to put in the work.

He was already getting about thirty percent right, and he’d only improve from here.

Back when he used to get into fights with Ethan, didn’t he always end up pinned down and beaten?

But after training hard, he’d managed to land a few punches on Ethan too.

Following that logic, if he kept at it, he could definitely pull an F+ on the midterms!

Wait… was thirty points even considered good?

Well, he used to get zeros!

He just hoped that jerk Ethan wouldn’t make him beg on his knees if he lost their bet.

Thinking the most cowardly thoughts with the toughest mental voice, Noah worked through the problems with a completely straight face.

When he finished, Isabella checked his answers carefully. “Sixty-seven!

“Congratulations, Noah-you passed!

“Put in a bit more work, and scoring a C- won’t be out of reach either.”

“Nice going, ace.”

When Isabella said that, Noah pressed his lips together, but he couldn’t stop a grin from breaking through.

“You really know how to make a guy feel better.

“Ugh, if only the real midterms were this easy.

“Congratulations, Ms. Powell! You’re officially the world’s best teacher!

“Turning an F-grade slacker into a solid C student-something no one’s ever seen!”

He pulled a playful face at Isabella.

Isabella laughed. “Not bad. You even used the right idiom-definite progress.”

While the two of them were joking around, Hannah was fuming on the other side of the room.

She kept her head down, avoiding looking directly at Isabella or Noah, but from the corner of her eye she kept catching glimpses of them.

Seeing how well they got along-how easy and warm the vibe was between them-Hannah felt like resentment was eating her up inside.

Noah had never been nice to her, but with Isabella he was all charm, trying to please her.

If Noah had treated everyone with the same coldness he showed her, it wouldn’t have stung so much.

But now, she was burning with bitterness.

Why did Isabella get Noah’s attention?

And here they were, laughing and joking together.

Noah’s smile around her was so bright.

Remembering how harsh he’d been to her and how he treated most people with clear disdain, Hannah’s jealousy only deepened.

Some folks were just like that. When others got preferential treatment, they’d immediately

want that same privilege for themselves.

Resenting someone else for receiving what you wanted was truly the deepest kind of envy.

Especially since Hannah didn’t believe she was any less than Isabella.

If anything, Isabella had no polish-she’d grown up in some backwoods town and still didn’t quite fit in here.

And yet, Isabella had ended up buddy-buddy with Noah, hanging out with him, and even had the backing of both the Wayne and Carter families.

The more Hannah thought about it, the more bitter she felt.

A nasty idea crossed her mind. Teacher and student? Are Isabella and Noah into some weird dynamic? No wonder he favors her-how creepy.

She didn’t hesitate to twist their relationship in the worst way possible.

In her mind, Isabella had no real skills. She hadn’t even gotten a proper education out in the sticks-how could someone like that possibly be tutoring Noah?

Besides, wasn’t Isabella the one getting help from Noah before? And now suddenly she was the teacher?

Please.

Hannah had only caught fragments of their conversation, not the whole story.
