Truth be told, Sophie wasn’t at all touched by Nicholas’ passionate declaration of love. She merely felt troubled.

“I think you’re just delusional, Nicholas. Since when did I offer you even a sliver of hope? I wouldn’t fall for you even if Tristan didn’t exist! The sooner you understand this, the better!”

“That’s impossible. You would definitely be with me if Tristan didn’t exist! It’s all his fault!”

Nobody would be able to change his mind regarding something he firmly believed in.

“Hah! You can try all you want if that’s what you think.” Sophie left with her books in her arms.

She no longer felt like wasting her breath with him.

Seeing that she wasn’t able to talk any sense into him, she figured she would cease talking to him altogether.

However, Nicholas didn’t care at all and followed her to class.

The class was held in a lecture hall. Nicholas didn’t sit next to Sophie even though he wished to do that. Knowing her temper, he refrained from pushing her buttons lest he made things difficult for himself.

He sat in the row of seats behind Sophie, his gaze fixated on her.

Nicholas had extremely attractive features that could charm practically anyone.

During class, he sat there languidly without his sunglasses while looking enamored.

Naturally, that garnered him the attention of many girls. The bolder ones would even deliberately sit in the same row as him to get a chance to ask for his number.

Yet, they soon realized that he was as aloof as he was handsome, offering them no chances at all.

Even though they sat in the same row as him, none of them dared approach him. Instead, they admired him from a few seats away.

Nicholas was satisfied with that.

This is how girls should react when they see me. I should be like a magnet to them! The one who made me taste failure is Sophie. I wonder when she’ll finally spare me a glance.
