She didn’t want to leave–she hadn’t had nearly enough time admiring the handsome instructor.

So she spoke up, “We actually came to listen to your lecture, too.”

She hoped this would convince Lucas to let them stay.

“I’m sorry, but I don’t teach drop–in students,” Lucas stated bluntly.

Ruby frowned and shot a glance at Arabella before replying, “We’re trainees here too. If she can be in your class, why can’t we?”

“This session is tailored specifically for her. It wouldn’t be suitable for you,” Lucas refused again, his expression unmoved.

Tailored just for her?” Ruby thought she must have misheard and repeated the words with a furrowed brow.

“That’s correct. Is there a problem with that?” Lucas looked at Ruby with a gaze that allowed

no argument.

Faced with his sharp stare, Ruby averted her eyes. She didn’t want to antagonize him–after all, he was the one she was interested in.

She then turned an unhappy look toward Arabella. “If I remember correctly, you’ve only been here one day.

I’m really curious what methods you used to get the academy’s top instructor to willingly hold a private class for you.” As Ruby spoke, her eyes were full of sarcasm.

Naomi had been standing quietly, observing the exchange. This time, Ruby had voiced the very doubts she felt, putting Arabella on the defensive.

Arabella’s lips curled into a cool smile. “You seem curious about a lot of things, but I’m not obligated to satisfy your curiosity.

“What’s it to you if Lucas wants to teach me privately? It’s none of your concern.”

Seeing Ruby still picking a fight, Arabella wasn’t about to back down.

Lucas thought Arabella’s retort was perfect

This stranger’s words were out of line, carrying tone that bordered on insulting.

It even grated on his own nerves.

Ruby, seeing Arabella’s composed demeanor, fel her frustration rising.

But she couldn’t afford to lose her composure in front of the man she liked, so she forced at sneer. “Of course it’s none of my business. I just ind it unbelievable that you’d take his professional courtesy so seriously. Maybe he was just being polite.”

Before Arabella could reply, Lucas cut in with a displeased expression. “You present yourself well, but your words are rather unpleasant. You two know each other, I take it?”

How could she speak to Arabella that way?

Remarks like that could truly damage a young woman’s confidence.

Seeing Lucas still defending Arabella, Ruby became convinced he had been taken in by her.

She couldn’t stand by and watch the man she liked fall into Arabella’s web. So she said, “Lucas, you haven’t known her long, have you?”

“And what if I haven’t? What are you implying?” Lucas scrutinized Ruby closely.

A smug smile touched Ruby’s lips. “I just think you should be careful. Don’t be fooled by her appearance. I’ve seen her tactics before. Right before you, she was involved with a man even more influential and wealthy.”

She had witnessed how Arabella had gotten close to Matthew.

It was astonishing–just a short time later, Arabella had already captivated the academy’s top instructor.

Had something happened between Arabella and Matthew?

Ruby frowned thoughtfully and glanced at Naomi.

Naomi caught the meaning in her look and also fell into silent contemplation.

Hearing Ruby’s insinuations, Lucas couldn’t help but frown slightly and glance at Arabella.

But Arabella’s expression remained completely alm, without a trace of unease.

He quickly dismissed his flicker of doubt–he trusted his own judgment of character.

He wouldn’t let someone else’s words cloud his perception.

He then looked coldly at Ruby. “I don’t need you to tell me who she is or isn’t. Her personal life is her own business and has nothing to do with me.
