Chapter 39

Asher looked at Elara. "Is that so?"

"Yes. Don't you believe me?" Elara nodded, her eyes dripping with sincerity.

Asher looked at her. He couldn't tell if she was being truthful or not.

Just then, his phone rang. He took out his phone and saw that Daphne had sent him a message. (Asher, have you finished your homework? There's a question I don't quite understand. Could you explain it to me?]

Asher got close to Daphne because she often asked him questions before. She was already doing well academically, yet she still sought his help, which naturally made Asher feel a great sense of accomplishment and fully satisfied his pride. During the last two days, she ignored him due to their quarrel.

Elara originally thought they had broken up in the morning. Unexpectedly, Daphine texted now.

Elara leaned over. Glancing at Asher's phone, she saw the message.

She read it out in Daphne's tone directly. "Asher, have you finished your homework? There's a question I don't quite understand. Could you explain it to me, please?"

The last part was her improvisation.

Asher glared at her and quickly turned off his phone screen. He looked at Elara, feeling a bit annoyed. "Why were you peeping at my phone?"

Elara said, "Umm... She texted you. Does that mean she forgives you?"

It really was quick. Once I severed ties with Asher, she broke up with him. Now that she sees me getting closer to him, she immediately starts flirting with him. So gross... she said inwardly.

Asher felt a bit uncomfortable as Elara was so concerned about his relationship with Daphne. "We were always fine."

Then why did you come back with me today?"

Asher was left speechless.
