Chapter 715: Chapter 715: Vera Is Angry (3)
Bell immediately assured him, "Don’t worry. With me here, no one will bully her."
When Vera Xavier heard their conversation, she found it inexplicably strange. ’Timid, soft-tempered, easily bullied? Is that me?’
’Wait, is Nathaniel Nathan pulling strings for me?’
Nathaniel Nathan nodded slightly. "If you have any trouble in the dorm from now on, you can ask Bell for help."
Vera Xavier quickly said her thanks, then scurried upstairs. Nathaniel Nathan left as well.
Nathaniel Nathan had helped Bell’s family before, so she was filled with gratitude toward him. She hadn’t known how to repay him, but now she had a way. All she had to do was help Nathaniel Nathan take good care of Vera Xavier—that would be repayment enough.
She even made a plan in her mind. She would take extra care of Vera Xavier from now on and would absolutely not let those slutty vixens bully her.
Little did Vera Xavier know what the dorm manager, Bell, was thinking. When she returned to her dorm, she saw Fiona Wright and Shirley Ewing looking at her, their faces full of Eight Diagrams, while Laura White was still calmly reading a book.
In fact, before she had even come upstairs, Fiona Wright had already rushed in to share some Eight Diagrams with Shirley Ewing. The two had even leaned against the windowsill to watch, but looking down from above, their view wasn’t very clear.
Vera Xavier watched them for a second in silence, then said openly, "I’ll treat you all to candy another day."
Fiona Wright looked at Vera Xavier and asked, "What’s your boyfriend’s background? He has such a powerful aura!"
Vera Xavier smiled. "He’s my boyfriend. How could his background be anything but impressive?"
It took Fiona Wright three seconds to understand the meaning behind her words. She pursed her lips slightly and said, "Vera, can you not be so narcissistic?"
"I can’t help it. When you’re this outstanding, it’s hard not to be," Vera Xavier said with a smile, then went inside to wash up.
Watching her go, Fiona Wright’s eyes held a trace of envy. Although Vera Xavier always joked about how outstanding she was, she was, in fact, truly that outstanding.
Most importantly, while she talked a big game about being outstanding, she never showed a hint of arrogance. She was always gentle and easygoing when interacting with others, never haughty or rash. She had a composure that was rare for a girl her age.
Fiona Wright felt she might go her entire life without ever attaining Vera Xavier’s kind of demeanor, but that didn’t prevent them from becoming good friends.
Shirley Ewing asked Fiona Wright, "Is Vera’s boyfriend handsome?"
"Drop-dead gorgeous!" Fiona Wright exclaimed. "Actually, his looks are secondary. His aura is extremely powerful. You can tell at a glance he’s no ordinary person. He and Vera are a perfect match!"
"Really?" Shirley’s eyes lit up. "Then next time, I have to find a way to see him!"
"Boy-crazy," Laura White, who was sitting on her bed reading, suddenly blurted out.
Shirley Ewing was about to blow up, but Fiona Wright pulled her back and tried to smooth things over. "Appreciating beautiful things is a right everyone has. It’s perfectly normal."
Shirley Ewing couldn’t help but say, "I really don’t get some people. They’re clearly not as good at studying as Vera, not as capable as Vera, and not as pretty as Vera, yet they act all high and mighty every day, as if they’re so incredible!"
Laura White glared at her. "Who are you talking about?"
"If the shoe fits!" As a typical girl from Hunan, Shirley Ewing had a fiery temper of her own.
