Chapter 58 The Upcoming Talent Show
Meanwhile, Zayden was in his thoughts.
I had never known before that Naomi actually didn’t like Eliza.
I only knew that Naomi always protected Eliza and would tell me things about Eliza. I had always doted on Naomi like a neighbor’s younger sister.
But I had no idea that Naomi had been hurting Eliza all along with me as an accomplice.
He took out his phone, intending to call Eliza. But after glancing at the sparse conversation history between them, his hand froze mid–dial.
In Eliza’s heart. Did she see me as the same kind of person as Naomi
That must be why Eliza had sent me the screenshots without saying a word.
By Monday, Nolan was able to walk normally again, though he still couldn’t leave the hotel to rest.
Eliza didn’t want to fall behind in her studies, so she went to school as usual. The schoolmates looked at her with strange eyes, their gazes almost blatant.
“Stop staring!” Henry suddenly stepped out from the side, shielding Eliza behind him and frowning as he said, “If you keep looking. I’ll gouge your eyes out!”
Eliza was taken aback..
Henry had never been so fierce in class before.
But the other students seemed to know how formidable he could be, and no one dared to look at Eliza anymore..
After the other students in the hallway had left, Henry turned to Eliza and asked, “Eliza, how are you? Were you really sick these past few days? Are you feeling better?”
“Thank you for protecting me like this,” Eliza said.
Seeing Eliza’s usual expression. Henry seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said, “We’re all friends. It’s only natural to look out for each other.”
Seeing Eliza smile, Henry hesitated and then said, “Nolan…”
“You saw it too?
Of course. The study group chat was almost entirely filled with discussions about me and Nolan. It would have been hard not to see
Henry frowned and said. “They’re all just spreading rumors. One day, I’ll expose them all and give them a good beating!”
Seeing Henry’s indignant expression, Eliza actually wanted to tell Henry the truth, but thinking about the reason Nolan was injured, she suppressed the thought.
It would be better if Nolan told them himself.
Eliza patted Henry on the shoulder in a friendly manner and said, “Alright, since we know it’s just rumors, let’s not worry about it. By the way, the teacher mentioned on Friday that there’s going to be a New Year’s Eve party. Do you have a performance? If not, there’s no need to sign up.”
“A New Year’s Eve party?”
Elza fell silent for a moment.
Naturally, I didn’t know which big shot had appreciated Naomi
But if in this life, I can prepare a performance to outshine Naomi, then I can take Naomi’s place and leap into the upper–class circle.
Henry was a bit surprised and asked, “What are you going to perform?”
