Chapter 91 Do You Think I Care About Their Opinions?

Just as Charlie’s face was about to lean in, Nancy’s cell phone, which was placed on the coffee table, rang inappropriately, along with the vibrating sound.

Nancy and Charlie’s eyes met. Both were stunned for a moment.

Suddenly realizing something, Nancy quickly turned her face and felt it. Only then she realized that her face was quite hot.

Oh dear…

What was she doing exactly?!

Embarrassed, she bent over, picked up the phone, and saw the caller ID. She gave Charlie a dry laugh, “… need to take a call.”

Charlie was extremely frustrated. Regardless of the atmosphere or the feeling, everything was in place just now. But it was interrupted by a phone call.

He nodded and gentlemanly said, “Go ahead.”

Nancy didn’t avoid Charlie. She put the phone to her ear, “Sarah, anything up?”

Sarah Brown was one of the few friends that Nancy had at school. She was also the one who told Nancy about what had happened to Fiona today.

“Oh dear, Nan.” Sarah’s anxious voice came from the earpiece, “It’s about today’s drama, Benjamin personally said it has nothing to do with you. Then the school got the surveillance footage, found the person who pushed Fiona. It’s the one who has always been bullied by Fiona…”

Nancy had guessed most of these things when she left the hospital with Charlie. She calmly asked, “And then?”

Hearing her so calm, Sarah suddenly raised her voice, “What then?! Nan, do you know the entire school is discussing this news now? Many people are saying that Benjamin clears your name because he’s afraid of the person behind you. Fiona said publicly that you are having an affair with an old man. Now everyone believes it. They’re saying very bad things about you…”

Nancy rolled her eyes in silence. The seemingly simplest place, the school, was actually where many people harbored dirty thoughts.

She hummed indifferently, “Let them say what they want. Do you think I care about their opinions?”

“Well, you’re right about this…”

Sarah cared about Nancy, “But Nan, being gossiped behind your back is very upsetting. And those people usually don’t know how to restrain themselves. Their outright contemptuous looks are also very annoying.”

Nancy let out a soft laugh, “What about you?”

Sarah was struck dumb for a second, “What about me?”

The smile on the corner of Nancy’s lips widened a litle, “Sarah, don’t you think that having an affair

with an older man is very look–down–able? Are you still willing to be friends with me?”

“Why wouldn’t I be!?”

Sarah was a bit irritated “They don’t know you. But I know you well. You’re not that kind of person. want money, you’ll only earn it with your own hands. You’d absolutely not sell yourself.”

If you

Nancy was touched, “Thank you.”

“Don’t say that.”

All of a sudden, Sarah started to worry, “Nan, how about you take a day off tomorrow? Wait until the heat of this matter cools down, then you come to school?”

Nancy’s amber eyes suddenly squinted. She sneered, “I won’t be taking off! Sarah, those who want to see you make a fool of yourself won’t let you go Just because of time. Since they want to watch, then I’ll let them watch. I won’t lose anything anyway.”

Sarah sighed, “Alright, you can make the decision. But you should be prepared.”

After having the call, Nancy put the phone back on the coffee table. She turned her head, and saw Charlie filled with suppressed rage…
