Melinda's POV
At Wolfe, most students come from wealthy families.
Even so, Theodore's limited-edition off-road vehicle still instantly attracted many guys' attention when it stopped at the school gate.
It made them stop and watch, their eyes full of curiosity and envy.
"Melinda, look, he's so handsome!" Just after class, Raven, as excited as if she had discovered a new target, pulled me, who was standing beside her.
I followed her direction and recognized the man leaning lazily against the car with sunglasses as Theodore at a glance.
He stood there, exuding a unique wild aura from head to toe.
As if he was the unruly wind from the wilderness, he unconsciously attracted people, but at the same time, he felt dangerous, as if approaching him would fall into some unknown vortex.
Raven asked curiously, "Who do you think he is? He doesn't seem to be from our school. Melinda, you've met many rich guys. Those who can drive this kind of car must be extraordinary. Have you seen him?"
Hearing her words, I couldn't help but feel a hint of superiority in my heart.
I straightened my chest and said calmly, "I saw him at an auction before and even talked to him. He is an overseas entrepreneur, Theodore Winston. He is a very powerful figure."
"Really?" Raven's eyes lit up, full of longing.
As if she had already fallen into an endless reverie about Theodore.
However, this longing didn't last long. Soon, she deflated like a balloon, hanging her head and saying, "Such an amazing person will definitely not like me. Why is he here? He can't be here to pick up his girlfriend, can he?"
Hearing Raven's words, I immediately thought of Vanya.
Thinking of the scene at the auction, Theodore was obviously protecting Vanya.
Could there be a special relationship between the two of them?
I had a bad premonition in my heart.
Sure enough, after a while, I saw Vanya and Derrick walk out of the second teaching building and head towards Theodore's car.
What made my heart sour was that Theodore, as a gentleman, opened the car door for Vanya.
That scene looked so harmonious and natural, as if they had an intimate relationship that others could not intervene in.
This scene stunned Raven. She widened her eyes and said in disbelief, "Isn't this the woman who wanted to steal your boyfriend? How did she get into someone else's car? Does she know Theodore? It can't be..."
I watched this scene quietly, and the emotion of jealousy in my heart spread like weeds.
I really couldn't understand why there was always such a group of excellent men around Vanya.
'In terms of appearance, I'm not bad either; in terms of talent, I have worked hard for many years and have achieved a lot in my studies.'
'But why am I always worse than her in terms of men's favor?'
Thinking of this, I felt more and more uncomfortable, clenching my fists secretly, and my fingernails were about to embed in my palm.
But I didn't feel it at all, and my heart was filled with jealousy.
Vanya's POV
As soon as I sat in the car, Derrick naturally sat in the driver's seat and took on the role of the driver.
I looked at Theodore and asked eagerly, "You called me here in such a hurry. Did you find out who anonymously spread the rumors?"
I knew that Theodore had always been efficient.
Theodore nodded slightly and said calmly, "This ID is newly registered, but according to the positioning, we did find the location where she posted the message."
"Where?" I asked, feeling a premonition in my heart that this matter was probably related to some people around me.
"At Wolfe," Theodore said.
Just as I thought.
Seeing this, Theodore raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that this answer is within your expectations."
"Don't even mention that the nightclub is next to Wolfe. Just considering the interpersonal relationships around me at that time, it is most likely that someone from Wolfe did it," I responded while thinking.
Theodore then continued, "The person who registered this ID is named Melinda."
"Melinda?" I couldn't help frowning, full of doubts.
Why would Melinda make up rumors about me for no reason?
I thought back carefully and remembered that in my previous life, there was almost no connection between us. Even in this life, we didn't have much contact.
She had always been a delicate little white flower in front of everyone. There was no reason to suddenly do such a thing.
"I remember now, wasn't she the girlfriend Cliff was rumored to be dating?" Derrick seemed to remember something and said with experience, "Never underestimate women's jealousy. Once they are jealous, they can do anything!"
