Chapter 87 Raine glared at Nicole fiercely and left in a hurry.
She got into trouble for mocking Nicole. It really was a bad day!
After Raine left, Nicole and June continued eating as if nothing had happened.
The both of them did not talk much. Nicole had a better impression of June after witnessing what she did. She had always admired those who stood up for themselves. It seems like June was not one to submit to oppression.
June sat opposite Nicole and ate quietly. After a long while, she suddenly said, “Nicole, that bracelet was from my grandmother. It was the only thing she left for me after she died. I’m really grateful that you got it back for me.” Nicole looked at her. She was not very surprised, but she was reminded of her own grandma in Great Oak
Before she left, Mrs. Wallace Sr. gave her a lot of things. Even when Nicole went back to the Riddle’s Residence and Gloria had changed everything new for her, she insisted on keeping everything that Mrs. Wallace Sr. gave. She brought it to her hostel instead. The panic in June’s eyes was not a joke. That bracelet must be very important for her. So, Nicole decided to hack into the security system and help her.
She only looked at June quietly and lent her a listening ear.

June continued, “Nicole, all these while I’ve actually been acting cool. I’m worried that people will realize my family background, so I chose to act that way. But now I understand that no matter how I act, the real rich people can see through me. There will still be people who will look down on me. So, I’ve decided to just be myself. I don’t have to care about what others think. I am indeed poor, but this 50-dollar backpack isn’t that shameful. It is those who have no money but insist on using million-dollar branded bags that’s really shameful.”
Nicole looked at her with deep eyes as if she had been listening carefully. June smiled at her,” Speaking of which, it was you, Nicole, who gave me the courage to do so. You were being gossiped and bashed on the school’s forum, and yet you didn’t care about it but just be yourself. To be honest, your response made someone else seem like a clown. One that is fighting over something you don’t care about.”
Nicole did not expect her to understand these things. She thought that June was not one to use
social media, “I’m just too lazy to give them any attention.”
June stared at Nicole while feeling a sense of admiration for her. Nicole was never the kind to run away from problems. She would remain calm and unafraid of any challenges. June secretly decided to take Nicole as a model and learn how to ignore those annoying sounds. At this, June smiled brightly. It was as if she finally decided what she really wanted. She quietly said, “Thank you, Nicole.”
Nicole looked at her without saying anything. She took out a small note and wrote something briefly. Then, she passed it to June.
June took over and realized that it was a series of numbers on the paper.
She looked back at Nicole puzzledly. Nicole said calmly, “It’s Samuel’s number” June blushed immediately. She did not know if she should accept it or not, but she froze. How did Nicole know about her deepest secret? Nicole glanced at her affectionately and said, “Sometimes, chasing after what you want isn’t shameful. There’s nothing wrong with catching feelings too.”
Before this, Nicole had never thought of doing this. But after seeing how brave June was, she began to admire her. So, she thought it would be a good chance for June to make friends with Samuel
June looked at Nicole while thinking. Then, she looked at the number on her hand and nodded, “Understood.”
At this moment, Nicole’s phone rang. She opened it, and it turned out to be a text message. She did not give Jared her number, right?
But Jared immediately identified himself and invited her over to try new coffee.
