FULL NOVELXO Chapter 48 Rose Threatens Eli
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.
She stated, "You like Kara."
Eli blushed, but he still wore a long face, asking, "What does it have to do with you?"
"Don't you know that Kara and I are relatives? I have to take care of her. You specially wrote notes for her. How thoughtful!"
Hearing Rose's mockery, Eli was on guard, "What do you want to do?"
"I have photos of you and Kara. If I tell the Quains about your puppy love affair with Kara, the Quains will definitely not let Kara go, right?"
Rose gloated ground to smile with her phone in her hand.
"If her family know she falls in love with someone at school, they would definitely teach her a lesson. Perhaps Madam Quain will be very angry and not allow her to come to school. Then, it would be difficult for you to see her."
Eli liked Kara, so he definitely knew the Quains.
Everyone who had come into contact with Linda knew that she was not only petty but also liked to profit herself at the expense of others. It was not uncommon for Kara to be beaten up by her before.
Eli clenched his fists tightly and frowned. He didn't want to get Kara into trouble.
"What do you want to do?"
Rose didn't beat around the bush after she heard Eli's words.
"Give me the money!"
In the past, the Quains would give her hundreds of pocket money every month. But ever since Adam hugged her that night, Sophia had always been picking on her.
During the week when she went back to recuperate, Sophia asked her to do housework every day. She was very tired, but she didn't get a dime. The most hateful thing was that her family agreed to give her 1, 000, but they hadn't given it to her yet. She could only borrow money online.
She bought a bag and used up the money borrowed online. Repayment time was almost up, but she had no money. Therefore, she chose to blackmail Eli.
When Eli heard her request, he was somewhat surprised. However, he straightened out his thinking very soon. The Quains treated Kara badly, and it was normal that this so-called relative treated Kara badly. Thinking of Kara having such a relative, he felt even more pity for her.
"How much do you want?"
Rose was happy when she heard his words. Just now, she only wanted to scare him, but she didn't expect him to give her money.
"Give me one hundred thousand!"
Eli was angry but laughed. His eyes flashed with anger. 'One hundred thousand! It's daylight robbery.'
"Okay, give me photos!"
Kara returned to the villa after school and stared at the phone in the living room.
'Uncle James called me when he was on a business trip last time. Will he call me this time?'
She waited for two days, but she did not receive James' call. Her spirits drooped.
"Miss Kara, if you miss Mr. James, you can call him." Seeing that Kara was staring at the phone all the time, Libby smiled and encouraged her.
"Mr. James is busy with his work. Sometimes, he doesn't even have enough time to have meals. That's why he suffers from stomach disease. If you miss him, you can call him." "Can I phone him?"
Kara pursed her lips, her long eyelashes trembling. She decided to phone James.
Since she wanted to apologize, she should take the initiative to contact him, shouldn't she?
Libby said, "Of course. You can call Mr. James and remind him not to forget to have meals."
Kara nodded. After dinner, she returned to her bedroom and took out her telephone. She was so nervous that she could feel the sweat in her hands.
She had got herself all psyched up and found his phone number.
She took a deep breath and dialed his number.
Every second of her waiting was suffering.
Finally, the phone was connected. It was not James who answered the phone, but a woman.
