Uncle's Love: My Sweet Little Wife novel Chapter 48

Kara contacted Eli on WeChat, and they made an appointment to meet behind the school corridor.

Eli was a good-looking man. Although he wore a very ordinary school uniform, he still attracted the attention of many girls.

Upon receiving Kara's message, he excitedly arrived at the appointed place. But when he heard that she wanted to return the notebook to him, he pulled a long face.

"I won't take back the things I gave away."

"Eli, I really appreciate your kindness. However, sow nothing, reap nothing. I'll give it back to you."

Kara pursed her lips and held the notebook in both hands, insisting on returning it to him.

Eli was slightly annoyed, and he did not take the notebook.

"If you want to thank me, you can give me a thing as a small gift between friends."

Kara blinked. This was not the result she wanted.

"You have a ball-point pen with a little rabbit's pen case. It's very cute. How about giving it to me?"

Kara stared at him warily. That ball-point pen was a birthday present that her father had customized for her.

She hadn't used it since her father died. But every time she saw it, she would miss her father.

But how did he know about that ball-point pen?

Rose, who was passing by the corridor, saw Kara and Eli standing together and stopped in surprise. She was jealous.

Her eyes flashed with joy. She took out her phone, adjusted the angle, and took a few photos.

In these photos, Kara and Eli seemed to be whispering something intimately. As Rose stared at these photos, she gave a smug but ferocious smile.

When Eli heard Kara reject his request, he did not get angry.

He said with a smile, "You can give me other gifts."

Kara bit her lips. She wasn't good at rejecting others and didn't know what to do.

"Eli, there's no need for gifts between friends. This notebook..."

"There's no need. However, it doesn't mean that I couldn't give you a gift. I'm willing to do it."

Eli chuckled. He knew she was good-tempered.

Kara was speechless.

Kara blinked her eyes. She didn't know what to say.

She didn't know how to refute.

'Eli has proved himself to be a straight-A student. He's really eloquent!'

"Kara, take the notebook and review your lessons carefully. We'll talk about it after the college entrance exam."

After the college entrance exam, he would profess to her.

He was confident that she would be willing to be his girlfriend.

Kara lowered her head and went back to the classroom. She felt limp. Arya asked if the problem was solved. Kara shook her head helplessly and threw the notebook on the table.

In the past, Arya only suspected that Eli liked Kara, but now Arya was certain.

Eli wanted to make a pass at Kara!

Elias, Eli's father, was the fourth young master of the Hemmings. He was the mayor of City L. Therefore, Eli had a high social status and his reputation was good. If he could take care of Kara...

"Don't be discouraged. What Eli said is not wrong. He said that the most important thing right now is the college entrance exam. Perhaps he really just wants to make friends with you. You can tell Mr. James that you only want to take the college entrance exam and enter University, and have no energy to think about other things."

Kara nodded and decided to do what Arya said.

...

After school, Eli was about to ride his bicycle home, but a girl stopped him.
