Pursuing Her

Chapter 525

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.

“Sophie is so shameless! Wasn't she with another man some days ago? She's gotten herself another one now! Her reputation is beyond awful!”

“That's right! She's such a seductress! No wonder she was cast out to Horington back then!”

Rumors about Sophie were widespread.

Meanwhile, Nicholas would never tolerate people gossiping about Sophie like that.

He slammed down hard on the table, shattering it as he did.

The girls who were gossiping shut their mouths instantly. None of them expected him to be able to shatter a table with just a slam.

“I can see that you like to gossip. Did you assume that she's an easy target for you? Do you have a death wish?” Nicholas threatened mercilessly.

He would never allow some random strangers to speak nonsense about the girl he fancied.

All the while, Sophie couldn't care less about what was going on behind her.

After all, she never was bothered by those rumors about her.

“You've interrupted my daily life, Nicholas. I think you should leave.” Sophie sounded stern.

“I want to attend the lecture! This is none of your business! You will only get to order me around once you agree to be my girlfriend!”

He wouldn't mind giving her the authority to order him around if she agreed to be his girlfriend.

He would only ever offer her such a privilege. Anybody else would be out of the question.

“Should I thank you?” Sophie asked mockingly.

She had no idea what it was about her that caught Nicholas' attention.

“Tell me what it is that you like about me, Nicholas. I promise to change those parts of me!” She was at her wit's end when it came to Nicholas.

After all, she wasn't allowed to kill him.

Yet, both his presence and the sight of him greatly annoyed her.

“You won't be able to change anything. I like everything about you. Even the air around you smells sweet. Isn't this how love toward another person feels like?”

Sophie didn't respond to that.

To be exact, she no longer knew how to respond to him.

Why must I be the one he fancies?

Meanwhile, everybody else who heard the declaration of love by a man as bloodthirsty as Nicholas felt jealous of Sophie.

Why is Sophie lucky enough to secure this man's affection?

Sophie no longer wished to speak to him. At that moment, the lecturer entered.

It wasn't that uncommon for boys to accompany their girlfriends to classes at universities.

Thus, he didn't comment about the uninvited guest in the lecture hall but began the lecture instead.

The lecturer was good at his job, for he was able to make an in-depth topic easily understandable by giving simple explanations about difficult things.

Sophie was able to learn a lot.

He sure befits his title as a lecturer at Jipsdale University. Not only is he good at his job, but he's also humorous.

Aside from those who spent the night before partying, nobody dozed off during his classes.

However, Nicholas wasn't paying attention at all.
