Ruthless-Losing My Innocence To World

Chapter 36

While she stared at him in deep confusion, a hand raised from her side to hit her. Before it could even touch her, Christin hand reached out and grabbed it.

Angelize was stunned.

That was close. She shouldn't have let her mind wander.

Christin was definitely not strong as Angelize. But as for someone who never had an advanced training in martial arts like Angelize, he sure was better.

"Ganging up on a girl?", Christin sneered at Zayden contemptuously as he threw away the hand of the man who had tried to hit Angelize earlier and sided Angelize protectively."Do you still call yourself a man?"

Of course Christin knew that this girl was not to be underestimated and Zayden did the wise thing to bring so many men to tackle her but still Christin had to mock Zayden by saying something.

"Christin, this matter has nothing to do with you. You better not intervene in it", Zayden said sternly.

Christin and Zayden were not in very good term. It was basically because of Noah. Noah had something severe and mysterious against Zayden and so enmity crept between Zayden and Christin too.

So Zayden voice was not very polite when he snapped at Christin unlike the rest of the college, excluding Angelize, that talked to Christin with wagging tails and flattering smiles.

"How has it nothing to do with me?", Christin smirked at Zayden, "The person here is my partner", he said, "And everything that has something to do with her has everything to do with me"

Zayden was stupefied.

Angelize coughed.

"Assignment partner", she corrected.

For the first time Angelize didn't mind him nosing in other matters. If he hadn't come she would have to knock out all of those hooligans and with everything being recorded, she was sure it would end up in a lot of trouble.

Trouble because she would later have to spend a lot of time and resources to hack into recording center of college and delete the video to prevent it from leaking out.

And hacking into the best institute of the continent? Even if she was proficient, it would still spur suspicion.

But she didn't know how Christin came to know about what was happening here and gave his unexpected visit.

Was he also keeping an eye on her like Zayden?

Was he crazy to that extent just because of his suspicion and curiosity?

"Christin you should better leave now. I really don't want to drag you into this", Zayden threatened.

"Drag me?", side of Christin lips curled up, "Do you think you have the ability to drag me into something?", his voice was brimming with confidence.

"Christin I think you are not stupid and you see all these men here obey me and they won't hesitate to beat the living daylights out of you if I ask them"

It only made Christin laugh.

"If you think your Carter family has the ability to go against our Blade family then go ahead and ask them to beat me", he said overtly.

That escalated to family level quickly, Angelize thought.

It was an indirect way of telling him that 'If you dare to hurt me today, my family will take revenge tomorrow'

Zayden jaw clenched.

"Don't tempt me", he seethed.

"I'm tempting you", Christin openly said as if talking to a dog and motioned with his fingers, "Come and bite me"

Angelize couldn't help her lips curling up.

That was really humiliating.

And Zayden couldn't offend the King of the Imperial College.

Zayden fists tightened and the veins on his forehead popped out. It seemed like he was going to break down out of indignation any moment. But then he took a few breaths to calm him down. Then wearing a fake smile he faced Angelize.

"You won't be having your boy toy all the time guarding you"

"Let's go", he said to his men and left.

Once again silence prevailed in the yard.

Christin face didn't look happy.

Even though she still remembered that Christin had put the virus in her tablet, it didn't cause a major damage and so she didn't have hard feelings against him. And he still kind of helped her and saved her a lot of trouble by putting his nose this time. Angelize was bad only to those who were also bad to her. To those who were nice to her, she would put aside her arrogance and humbly appreciate their goodwill.

Like she did with Sarah and Ms. Blade.

Christin looked in deep thoughts. Angelize looked at him and frowned. She coughed lightly to bring him out of his trance.

That returned the cheerful charming smile on his face.

"I know you must be very moved by my act of kindness and must be really wanting to thank me..."

"Actually I.."

She was cut off mid speech as Christin ignored her and continued.

"You must be feeling like falling on your knees right now and thanking me for saving you from that life threatening condition..."

"I..."

"And now you must be regretting saying those hurtful words to me in the past and even though it was very bad of you to say that to me in the first place but I still..."

Angelize couldn't take it anymore. There was no helping this guy.

"How the hell you found out Zayden was cornering me here", Angelzie snapped at him, giving up on all the ideas of saying a polite thank you to this impossible guy.

Christin blinked innocently. The look was so cute that it could make his fangirls go wild if they were there.

But Angelize was like a rock, unaffected by fire and water.

"A thank you would be nice?"

"That doesn't answer my question?"

"I was just passing by", he innocently replied, "And saw you and Zayden here"

"Oh so you were just passing by the barren yard that doesn't even stand in the path to any class or any other important place?", Angelize said sarcastically, "I'm totally persuaded"

"'Coughs' Why do you have to be so skeptical? I was passing by the balcony to get some fresh air"

"Anyway I could have handled it myself but your intervention saved a lot of trouble", Angelize said curtly in her aloof voice.

It was her way of saying thank you.

That shrinked Christin heroic act from the size of a mountain to the size of an ant.

"You couldn't have handled that yourself", of all the things Christin pointed out the most absurd one.

Angelize didn't reply to him. In the video he had only seen one percent of her martial arts. So of course unless he saw her in a real battle, he wouldn't believe it.

"Hey wait", Christin walked up to that cold-hearted girl and stood in front of her blocking her when she walked ahead without even saying a thank you.

He had a serious face this time as he said in a critical voice.

"Angelize you should be wary of Zayden. Not everyone knows about it but Carter family has deep roots in Mafia"
