The Coma Prince’s Fiancée novel Chapter 103

“What, thinking about sparring with me?” Rebecca was never one to look up at anyone. She leaned comfortably back in her chair, her gaze flat. “With your size, you wouldn't stand a chance.”

She wasn’t wrong, but to Magee, it came off as a straight-up challenge.

“Rebecca, Magee was just curious, that's all. If you don't want to talk about it, just say so. No need to be mean,” Paulina chimed in as she walked over.

She had caught the entire drama on the school broadcast and already watched the videos from the admin building. What she really couldn’t wrap her head around was why Wade would go out of his way to cover for someone like Rebecca.

Paulina was already pissed. Now, with a chance to call Rebecca out, she wasn’t about to let it pass.

Rebecca stayed cool, one foot braced against the floor and her expression sharp with confidence. “This is just me. If you can't deal with it, then don’t come near me.”

She was just trying to eat. Why did these people have to pick now?

Paulina felt her jaw tighten. She was furious, but she still had to keep up her perfect image.

“Rebecca, I know you don’t want me meddling, but Dad and Mom asked me to look out for you. I promised them I would. I can’t just pretend nothing’s happening, right?”

Before Rebecca could answer, Paulina’s crowd jumped in.

“Some people just don’t know how to appreciate anything. It’s always someone else’s fault, even when they’re in the wrong.”

“Some people don’t know gratitude, even when it’s spelled out for them.”

Rebecca had had enough. She stood up, tall and effortlessly striking, her vibe all sharp edges.

She fixed them with a cool stare. “All of you, do it together. Saves time.”

The whole group, still grumbling a second ago, instantly fell silent. Their eyes darted to Magee, looking for backup.

Rebecca watched him too, waiting, eyes narrowed.

Magee barely reacted. Instead of getting mad, he just smiled.

“Not today. But I’d love a lesson from you sometime,” he said, looking genuinely amused.
