His Heiress Wife (Retika)

Chapter 165: Ants Trying to Topple a Tree 

The next day...

Every student in Sanguine High was shocked when Melody appeared at school.

"Didn't she offend the student union? What is she doing here? The nerve of her to show up in the school," one of the students said.

"Who knows? Maybe she’s here to pack her things up!" another one replied.

Yesterday, Melody brought people to attack and even reported the entire student union to Mr.Alberts.

"Oh my god! Is that all true?" one student asked.

The students who heard about this news were all shocked.

They didn't expect the student union to hide something so immoral and unacceptable.

"This is the student union?! Unbelievable!" another student exclaimed. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

The student heads of the student union were students that came from wealthy families.

Sanguine High was a noble school, and every student who could come in to study in this school had a deep and wealthy background.

Considering how each student of Sanguine High had a wealthy and deep background, those that were capable of becoming student heads in the student union were surely more powerful and wealthier than them.

Melody was trying to shake the plutocrat foundation of the student union by herself.

This was why everyone found it surprising how she was able to show up at school the next day, unharmed.

Melody was the object of everyone's attention, but they didn't dare to look at her openly.

Although they had never seen Melody lose her cool, she had a kind of aura around her, giving people a feeling that she was cold and unapproachable.

It was like she was a cold ray of light on the high ground.

The other students couldn't get close and could only look up to her.

Melody also had two guardians walking by her side.

One was the famous Lance Harrison, who made people tremble with fear, and the other was the new top student, Luke.

How could Luke be a simple person if he could compete with Lance without losing? With these two people escorting Melody, everyone was afraid to approach her or even look in her way.

Luke took the initiative to offer her a nutritious breakfast that was high in protein after Melody settled on her seat.

Luke placed all the food he had on his bag one by one.

The table was filled with food in just a few moments.

Seeing this, Lance couldn't help but felt his throat tighten, "Luke, are you feeding a pig? Why are there so many types of food on Melody's table? She won't be able to finish all that!"

Luke rolled his eyes at Lance in disgust.

"What do you know? Our boss is growing.She needs more nourishment!"

"Melody fought hard last night.Don’t I have to add a little more protein today?" Luke said ignoring Lance.

Last night's battle was repeatedly discussed in the world hacker forum.

It was known as the most epic showdown between hackers in the past ten years.

You could even say that the battle was a textbook offensive and defensive battle between hackers.

It was a really wonderful fight! Luke felt that the way he looked at his boss today had more respect than he usually had for her.

As expected of his boss, she was the best in every aspect.

It made people like Luke admire her very much.

‘Is she growing?’ Lance thought as he considered Luke's answer.

He looked at Melody from his peripheral vision.He examined her from head to toe.

His eyes gradually slid down to her fair, swan-like neck.Her slender and tall figure was tall and well- proportioned.She was plump and graceful.

You could say that she had a perfect figure.

With just a glance, Lance felt his entire body tense up.

He subconsciously reached out to pick up the tumbler on the table and he was about to pour a mouthful of water down his throat to calm the raging heat of his body .

Unfortunately, he had forgotten that he had just filled the tumbler with hot water as an additive to soup before he came to school! It was hot! The water in the tumbler was hot.

He subconsciously closed his mouth, his entire mouth was almost scalded by the hot water.He immediately spat it out when the hot water filled his mouth.

The water splashed in all directions! Class 8 instantly fell silent.

Lance had always shown off his image as a noble son on a normal day.

But today, he looked like a fool as he spat out water everywhere like a person who didn't have any manners.

It was not only the other students inside the room who noticed Lance's vulgar actions.

Melody's hand ceased in mid-air with her spoon as she looked at Lance in confusion.

Luke was the first to react.His face instantly turned ferocious as he looked at Lance furiously.

"Feck, Lance, you disgusting pig!" he said as he wiped off some droplets of water that landed on his shirt.

"You're already f*cking old enough to drink by yourself.Don’t you know how to drink water?"Luke added.

"You sprayed water everywhere! It's so disgusting! How will boss eat now?"

At this moment, Luke became more powerful than a mother scolding his son.He did not repeat his curses, he was creative at it as his mouth was like a machine gun that rained down curses on Lance.

Lance’s face remained calm, but his red ears exposed how embarrassed he was because of what happened just now.He didn’t care about Luke's scolding, but he felt that he had embarrassed himself in

front of Melody.

Lance turned to look at Melody and apologized.He lowered his head and displayed his sincerity.

"Boss, I'm sorry.I didn't mean to..."

Luke prepared a lot today.

Melody didn't really mind since she had already eaten a lot before this minor accident happened.

Instead, she turned to Luke and said, "Do you have ice cubes? Get him some! His tongue might have been scalded because of the hot water."

He might have scalded his mouth just now.

Of course, there was a possibility that Lance was okay, but a burn in the mouth was painful nevertheless.

In addition, if a small burn injury in the mouth was ignored, it could become infected and turn into an ulcer.

Luke really had ice cubes.

He always had some ice cubes with him since he wanted to ensure that Melody could drink a cola with ice all the time since it was her favorite.

Luke even carried a small refrigerator with him.

Luke reluctantly took out a cup of ice cubes and gave it to Lance.

Lance happily took it.

"Thank you, boss!".

‘It feels really good to be cared for by the boss.It makes me feel loved.Although, it's a bit embarrassing that she saw me do such shameful thing" Lance thought.

The farce had just subsided when the class monitor suddenly rushed into the class and shouted, "Big news, there's a shocking big news!"

"Oh my god, Melody is so amazing! Let me tell you..."

Just as the class monitor was about to announce the news, she saw Melody leaning lazily on her chair.

On the other hand, Lance, who had something in his mouth beside her, looked stunned.

The class monitor subconsciously blurted out, "Melody, why are you here so early?"

Then, she stood there in a daze, as if her entire body was frozen.

Sarah woke up early in the morning.

She was suddenly very eager to send Melody to school.

Melody, who had always been the last person to step into the school gate, was indeed a little early today.

The class monitor assumed that Melody was still not in class, so she impulsively rushed to the room.

Everyone carefully looked at the class monitor and wanted to know what kind of big news she had.

But because of Melody's aura of deterrence, they didn't dare to ask.

Melody adjusted her position and casually put her slender legs on the table.Her entire body sank to a more comfortable position as she adjusted herself on her seat.She lifted her eyes and locked at the class monitor calmly.

The class monitor was timid.

Melody was worried that she might have scared the class monitor.

"Class monitor, since this news is so big, don’t waste your time.Just tell us! Everyone's waiting," Melody said.

Tears started to well up in the class monitor's eyes and she was about to cry.

She suspected that today must be her bad day, or else, how could she encounter such a frustrating thing? Ư

"Melody, I..." the class monitor stopped at what she was about to say.

Looking at the class monitor's restless expression, Luke became impatient.He shook his head and impatiently shouted, "Stop talking nonsense! Our boss wants you to speak.Just say it!"

Luke's stern and cold voice almost brought the class monitor on her knees in fear.

She cautiously said, "It's...it's those people from the student union..."

Looking at her hesitant and terrified expression, Melody couldn't help but feel impatient like Luke.

"Speak properly.Don't worry, no one will hurt you!" Melody said.
