However, while many were still dumbstruck, some of them had their eyes fixed on Casper, looking at him with jealousy.

Sh*t! Ms. Clauder is actually smiling at him! Why is this guy so lucky?

“All right, cheeky guy. I’ve got to go. Bye!” Giselle said, batting her eyes at Casper before she turned around to leave.

“Goodbye, Ms. Clauder!” Casper waved his hands and grinned inanely as he watched her leave until she disappeared from his sight.

Felix swung his arm around Casper’s neck and teased, “Hey, Casper! Stop staring. Ms. Clauder is gone. I know she’s pretty, but you don’t have to act all smitten by her. She’s the goddess of BU. You won’t stand a chance of winning her heart.”

“Felix, it’s not right for you to say so. Ms. Clauder is our lecturer. How could you have such nasty thoughts about her?” Casper put on a stern expression, totally overlooking the fact that he was the one who had secretly designated Giselle to be his future wife in his heart.

Just then, Lillian walked up to them with her head lowered timidly. “Uhm… Thanks for helping me just now.”

As she spoke, she kept sneaking glances at Casper as blush warmed her cheeks.

Although it was Felix who stood up for her first, Casper was the one who protected her when she needed help the most. The scenes of him saving her lingered in her mind, especially the one in which he offered himself courageously to help her brother to settle the debt. He is just like a knight in shining armor.

For a moment, an inexplicable emotion washed over her, overwhelming her entire being.

I don’t know how I should face him.

Upon seeing her reddened cheeks, Felix, Colton, and Remy narrowed their eyes simultaneously and exchanged meaningful smiles among themselves.

Felix then cleared his throat to get Lillian’s attention. “Ah, you saw it just now. The rest of us didn’t get to help much. All the credit goes to Casper, so you don’t have to thank us. Thank him instead.”

He snickered mischievously, and a second later he suddenly exclaimed, “Oh! I just remember that I need to go find my girlfriend now. You guys carry on. Bye!”

Immediately afterward, Colton knocked his head with his fist, looking as if something important crossed his mind all of a sudden. “Oh no! I-I forgot my phone in the classroom! F*ck! I need to check if it’s still there!”

With that, he gave Remy a slap on his shoulder and said, “Remy, you should come with me!”

Remy nodded at him with a knowing smile. “Oh, sure!”

The three of them blinked at Casper meaningfully and left resolutely together, leaving Casper and Lillian alone.
