Chapter 441 Temptation Mia's POV.

As the class came to an end, I gathered my belongings and prepared to leave the classroom. Sheena and Joanna, my two lively friends, were beside me, already discussing their post-class plans. "What's the plan, girls?" Joanna asked with an eager gleam in her eyes.

Sheena, the bubbly one, chimed in, "Let's go watch a movie! It'll be so much fun!"

However, I had other responsibilities weighing on my mind. "I'd love to, but I have to head back to the dorm to finish today's assignment," I informed them regretfully.

Joanna's expression shifted to annoyance, and she tried to persuade me, "Come on, Mia. You can do your assignment later. We'll be back from the movie in a few hours. Don't ruin the fun, babe." "Guys, seriously, I'm not interested in..." My words trailed off as I caught sight of him standing in front of me, leaning against his car.

I blinked a few times to clear my vision. Maybe I was daydreaming. But no, he was there, real and alive. He smiled as he looked in my direction. I glanced around, but there was no one else. He was looking directly at me. I decided to ignore him and kept walking. Then he called out my name and

jogged toward me.I continued to ignore him and kept walking without stopping.

"Hey, wait. I was calling your name," he complained, sounding slightly

irritated, and I couldn't help but roll my eyes in response. His persistence was testing my patience.

"Really? I thought you were calling some other girl," I lied bluntly, trying to mask the unease I felt deep inside. I didn't want him to know that his presence affected me more than I cared to admit.

He narrowed his eyes at my retort, seemingly unconvinced by my casual response. "That's funny," he replied, his tone slightly playful.

"By the way, what are you doing here? Do you want to enroll in some courses?" I mocked, attempting to regain some semblance of control in the situation.

His intense gaze never wavered as he stared at me for a few seconds, leaving me momentarily breathless. "You're something... Mia," he finally said, his words making my heart race even faster.

Forcing myself to remember how to breathe, I swallowed the lump in my throat and decided to walk away, heading towards my dorm. However, he wasn't ready to let me go so easily.
