Chapter 328: Rejecting Straightforwardly

"I don't want to eat anything else. You eat them." Elaine was enjoying the game and didn't want to put
down her phone, replying perfunctorily.

Emmett grabbed her phone and raised it high.

Elaine was anxious and stood up, shouting, "Give it back. Give me back my phone! I am about to
upgrade. I can't stop now! You are so annoying. Quickly return the phone to me!"

"Then eat some fruit. You must eat fruit after dinner!"

"Give me my phone first!"

"I'll give you your phone after you eat it."

She pouted hard but gave up when she saw his expression.

"Alright, I will do it."

She sighed and picked up some fruit to eat with a long face.

"Is there any chance you are going on a school trip?"

He watched her eat fruit and asked softly.

"What? The semester has just begun. There is no school trip."

She began to enjoy it and couldn't stop.

"Is the school sending you abroad?"

"What? Going abroad?" Elaine opened her eyes wide and moved her eyeballs, shaking her head. Then
she continued to eat fruit.



"No way. Why would it send us abroad? It's pipedream."

Emmett said mysteriously, "Not necessarily...."

Unfortunately, Elaine did not pay attention to his words but ate all the fruits she loved on the plate.

"Kayden, send Elaine back to school."

She was full now, so he instructed Kayden who was waiting outside.

Kayden pushed the door open and came in, saying, "Yes!"

Emmett turned around to nip Elaine's cheek and said, "Behave yourself in school. Don't fool around
with boys. Do you hear me?"

"Yes, I heard you."

Elaine nodded obediently. After Emmett smiled faintly and kissed her beside her ear, she blushed and
understood what he really meant.

"Well, I'm still a free woman, right? Why can't I be close with a boy? Why do I feel I am your
concubine? You are so controlling!"

...

She was displeased and rubbed her full belly, following Kayden out.

Kayden led her out through the back door.

Elaine did not know Marina was in another room not far away from Emmett's.

Emmett arrived at Marina's room and glanced at the dining table, saying insincerely,



"Are you full?"

Marina was shocked!

After all, he hadn't made a sound walking there, and she hadn't noticed he entered the room before he
spoke.

On the other hand, she felt guilty because she had just done something wrong.

"Good, you're here."

She forced herself to calm down and stood up with a smile. Emmett waved for her to sit down and
seated himself elegantly opposite her.

"Have you finished your meal?"

He asked the question again.

Then, he coldly looked at her with a sophisticated gaze.

Her skin seemed to be fair after she came back from abroad, so she looked more beautiful.

Her eyes flickered as she gazed at him, smiling,

"I don't have much appetite eating alone. Have you eaten yet?"

Emmett nodded slightly and replied, "Yes, I have. I'm sorry you had to eat alone."

He keenly noticed she was kind of on edge and was dodging his gaze.

He was good at covering his emotions, so he still looked indifferent and elegant.

"It's fine. I know you're busy. Come, have some coffee."



She quickly picked up the coffee pot and poured the hot coffee into the cup in front of him.

Then, she stared at the cup and urged him, "Have some coffee."

Emmett did not move but stared at her. She felt uncomfortable, and he said casually,

"Why don't you pour one for yourself?"

...

"What? Right, I forgot. I'm having one, too."

She realized what she had done wrong and quickly filled her own cup.

Then she put down the coffee pot in a fluster, and it shook on the table.

"Come, let's enjoy the afternoon." Marina pursed her lips and smiled as she raised her coffee cup.

"Have some coffee."

She tried to persuade him again and then picked it up, drinking the coffee slowly.

He hesitated for a moment before picking up the cup.

She drank her coffee and quietly looked at the man opposite her through the steam.

He was so handsome.

He had perfect forehead, nose, and eyes....

'Emmett, can I caress your hair and whisper to you affectionately some day?'

'And will you hug my waist and put your forehead against mine, saying sweet words to me?'



'God, I will trade the happiness of my life for that sweet moment!' she thought to herself.

... ... ... ... ...

Kayden sent Elaine back to school without alarming anyone.

Watching her walk into the campus like a crab, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"It turns out the stupidest one is the happiest...."

She was unaware how much others had done for her.

He shook his head and let out a long sigh, instructing the driver with exhaustion,

"Come, let's go to Wave Street first. There's been some trouble over there."

"Yes, Kayden."

The luxury car slid out smoothly.

...

Elaine walked lazily on the campus and yawned with her mouth wide open, looking nothing like a lady.

After lunch, she would find somewhere nice to take a nap. Now she finally admitted she was somewhat
like a pig.

"Hello, little beauty."

A person appeared out of thin air and stood in front of Elaine.

...



Elaine stopped too quickly and bumped her head onto his chest.

"My nose! It hurts so badly!"

She wrinkled her plump little face unhappily and looked up slightly, complaining,

"Who are you? Why did you walk so fast? Watch where you are going!"

She wasn't born beautiful. If her nose was distorted, Emmett might not look at her anymore. And she
would lose the 500, 000 bonus that came with the deal every month.

Franklin smiled, "Little beauty, I ran so fast just to say hello to you!"

Only then did Elaine recognize the beautiful youth in front of her. He was Mark's friend, the prince of
computer, Franklin.

"It's you...."

She frowned and pointed at him.

His eyes lit up. "Do you remember me?"

"Yes, I do. Aren't you Mark's friend? What's your name again? What's your name?"

Franklin's face dulled.

In just one day, she forgot his name?

One must know he was a genius in the computer world. He had so many lady fans!

He pouted in grievance and said, "Are you lying to me? You must know my name. You are teasing me."



Elaine was surprised. "I never lie. I only lie to my father and sister occasionally. I really haven't lied to
anyone else. I don't know your name. Tell me again."

He goggled at her for a few seconds and cracked up.

"You..., you're so funny."

She was hilarious. What did she mean by never lying to anybody?

He guffawed. Elaine was upset and reached out to poke his chest, saying anxiously,

"Stop laughing. Tell me. What's your name?"

...

Franklin grabbed her small hand and clenched it, staring at her with his bright eyes.

"I'll tell you my name, but you must let me hold your hand."

Holding hands? (⊙_⊙)

She didn't mind. In any case, she had held hands with boys in high school. But she was afraid Emmett
would be mad.

She twisted her fingers.... Emmett was hot-tempered, okay?

Today, she had only spoken to that fellow in the corridor, but Emmett had been upset.

Bad-bear Smith was a troublemaker, so she couldn't afford to offend him.

Marina was his girlfriend in name, and Elaine was nobody to him.

However, she was enjoying 500, 000 from him every month. She had to behave for the money.



She couldn't hook up with another man behind the back of her patron, right?

Thus, she pulled back her hand.

"Then I'd better not know your name. When I see you again, I'll call you bro. It's not wrong to call you
that anyway."

"You...."

Franklin stuttered.

This was the first time the prince had been rejected so straightforwardly.

"That won't do! You're even friends with Mark. You don't even know my name? This is bad. I am
upset!"
