Chapter 375

As two fine young men came over to say hello, Mrs. Wallace Sr. looked at Nicole in puzzlement, as if
waiting for her to introduce them, only to see Nicole’s brows knitted together. “What are you doing here?”
Nicole asked. Harvey did not mind her attitude. Instead, he sat down next to her. Edwin asked for Mrs.
Wallace Sr.’s permission before he, too, sat down by her side. “I heard your grandma was coming, so I
thought I should come to meet her,” Harvey said, sounding as if he was someone close to Nicole or
something.

Now, even Mrs. Wallace Sr. felt a little unease, but she was worried that he was Nicole’s good friend, so
she asked tentatively, “You are?”

Harvey smiled with no hesitation. “Nicole and my grandfather know each other, and it was he who
recommended Nicole to study in this school. Knowing that you came to see Nicole, I thought I have to
come to meet you, too.”

Harvey was not lying. When he got the news of Nicole’s grandmother coming, he immediately came
over.

Nicole could not stand him. She stood up abruptly and glared at him. “What do you want?”

Harvey felt insulted by her question. He was exasperated that she thought he was here to see her
grandma with some ulterior motive.

Harvey’s face sank, but his eyes were still gentle, just that there was an added unfathomableness in
them.

Even if he had a motive, it was definitely his hope that by pleasing her grandmother, Nicole would not be
so resentful of him.



Thinking of this, Harvey looked up at Nicole thoughtfully.

“I heard you and your grandma used to live in Great Oak?” he asked.

If Shawn’s information was accurate, he might get the answer he wanted from Nicole. But Nicole ignored
the strange questions. She stood up with Mrs. Wallace Sr., wanting to leave. But Mrs. Wallace Sr. looked
at Harvey and said all of a sudden, “Young man, what do you want to know?”

This person did not look like an ordinary kid; there seemed to be something terrible surging and
struggling in his eyes.

Harvey looked at Mrs. Wallace Sr. in puzzlement. “What do I want to know?”

He did not know, either.

Thinking of this, he smiled softly. “I just want to say that maybe we should at least be friends. What do
you say, Nicole?”

Nicole was not in the mood to listen to his nonsense. She picked up her food tray and just as she
reached for her grandma’s, Edwin, who sat next to Mrs. Wallace Sr., had picked up the tray without
looking the slightest disgusted.

“Let’s go. I will help Grandma do it,” he said to Nicole in a matter-of-course tone of voice. Harvey
watched on and narrowed his eyes. He wondered what Edwin was up to. Mrs. Wallace Sr. looked at
Edwin and thought that he looked cute, at least not as crafty as the young man just now. As the three of
them left together, Harvey’s face turned to become a little frightening. But it was only for a moment
before he quickly regained his demeanor and put a nonchalant smile back on his face.

Snow looked at him from a distance away. Seeing that he was alone now and thinking that she finally
had a chance, she came up to him.



“Harvey,” she greeted him. Harvey glanced at her without emotion and then let out a half-smile.

“What’s up?”
