Chapter 41
“Greg?” Jessica was flattered. This was the first time in her life that Greg had hugged her so intimnately.
Greg was different from Humphrey, who was stable and distant but polite and proper. Greg was unreasonable and did things his own way. Everything he did was based on his own preferences
Although Jessica’s other brothers were not close to her, they were still polite.
Greg was different. Most of the time, he would speak ill of her, ridicule, disdain, and mock Jessica, but he had never hugged her so lovingly.
Greg asked, “What’s wrong? Are you dumbfounded after seeing me?“
After Greg let go of Jessica, he rubbed the top of her head dotingly. At this moment, he looked like a good brother who doted on his sister.
Jessica asked. “No, no… Greg, why are you here?”
Jessica suppressed the excitement in her heart and looked around again.
Now, many people around her were looking at her. There was curiosity, envy, and jealousy in their eyes. This feeling of being the center of attention made Jessica very happy.
Greg held Jessica’s hand and smiled. “I’m your brother. Isn’t it only right for me to pick you up from school! Let’s go. The car is parked at the school
Greg left with Jessica. He did not even look at Nina the entire time
if Nina was a stranger to him.
Jessica could tell that Greg seemed to be deliberately ignoring Nina. She was overjoyed.
Jessica didn’t
1 expect Greg to side with her, and she naturally wouldn’t ask why Greg was ignoring Nina for no reason. Hence, the two of them quickly got into the car and left the school.
The crowd dispersed.
Nina was still standing there.
She stared at the departing car for a long time and knew that Greg did not like her very much.
However, Nina was not sad because she didn’t like Greg either.
At this mor
modbent, a voice came from behind “Nina”
Nina turned around and glanced at him, but she did not greet him. The girl held a grudge. She still remembered that when Jessica fainted a the summer camp, and the quarreled with Lynn, Oliver only told her to shut up.

Chapter 41
Oliver did not beat around the bush with Nina and said, “On the last night of the summer camp, weren’t you curious about what Uncle Clifford wanted to talk to me about! At that time, he just asked me to look after you and said that you were too naive. He was afraid that you would be deceived
Nina retorted, “Humph. I’m not naive! I’m very smart
She couldn’t believe that Clifford slandered her..
Also, she couldn’t understand why he had to say this to Oliver alone.
Nina was sad, thinking. ‘Every time Chifford speaks to his nephew, he avoids me. He actually guards against me. He used to tell me everything.
“Heh, you show all your feelings on your face. You arent smart at all,” Oliver teased and changed the topic. “So, can you tell me now why you’re suddenly throwing a tantrum with me?”
Nina’s face darkened as he brought up the past. “When Jessica fainted, I quarreled with Lynn. What right did you have to say ‘enough‘ to me only? You were clearly targeting me at that time, so I don’t like you anymore!”
“Seriously? Are you that vengeful?” Oliver was surprised.
He thought that Nina would not be worried about anything else other than eating with everyone.
Nina was even anger after hearing this.
She glared at Oliver and said, “That’s right! I’m such a vengeful person, but are you magnanimous? Easy for you to say enough I hate you. Go
Nina pushed Oliver away and walked forward.
Oliver chased after her again and apologized to her. “Alright, it’s my fault. At that time, I saw Jessica faint. Lynn said that it was because you hurt her leg that she failed every test and fainted from malnutrition. Unexpectedly, you admitted it without any apology, so I was quite mad and took it out
on you”
In the end, when he went to the infirmary, the doctor said that Jessica was fine, and her leg injury had basically recovered. It did not affect the test Only then did Oliver realize that Lynn was making a mountain out of a molchill.
Nina did not buy Olivera apology, thinking that his apology meant nothing
She ignored him and continued walking forward. When she reached the school gate, she stopped and waited for a taxi
Oliver tried to talk to her again. “I just heard that Greg came to school to pick you up, right? Why are you still in school?”
Nina refused to talk to him no matter what.
Oliver knew that she was still angry, so he continued, “Don’t tell me he only took jessica away and left you behind.
Nina glanced at fun and thought. Humph, this idiot Oliver isn’t that stupid after all”

Nina and the four brother of the Woods family were the children of Darell’s deceased wife, Jessica’s aunt, Emily Woods. Emily had died giving bardia to Nina, so the Woods family luted Nuu

Chapter 41
Nina was stunned and furious.
However, Oliver was Clifford’s nephew, and she couldn’t do anything to him, so Nina could only puff up her cheeks in anger and walk to the side angrily, planning to distance herself from Oliver.
Unexpectedly, Oliver’s annoying voice sounded from behind right away. “Well, I forgot to tell you. There’s a traffic control on the street. No taxis will pass in front of the school gate today.”
Nina was dumbfounded and wondered, ‘Could Clifford please discipline his nephew right away?”
