Austin was silent at the moment.
Cameron said, “It’s okay. It won’t take more than a few minutes.”
When Elijah had nothing more to say, Austin struggled to pull out the wheelchair and sat on it.
Just as Cameron was about to push Austin’s wheelchair, Elijah took a step ahead and said, “Let me do it.” So she nodded. This left Austin dumbfounded.
As Elijah pushed the wheelchair forward, he handed the exercise book in his hand to Cameron. “Look at the second question on the third page,” he said.
Cameron felt extremely speechless.
Cameron followed behind the two of them. After reaching the teaching building, the three of them went their separate ways. Cameron walked towards Class 15, and Elijah pushed Austin to Class 10.
After sitting in her seat, Cameron consciously solved the problem that Elijah had left unsolved.
Elijah came back soon and got back his exercise book. Then, his cold eyes seemed to be shining. “So that’s how it is solved.”
Meanwhile, Cameron took out her history textbook and began to recite the key points. Elijah wanted to say something more, but seeing that Cameron was studying, he didn’t disturb her anymore.
After the morning classes were over, Cameron was just about to go to the cafeteria for lunch when Elijah caught up and said, “Cameron, come on, let go to the cafeteria.”
As soon as Elijah’s words fell, a weak voice came from a few meters away. “Cameron.”
Cameron didn’t respond to that.
“Wow, it’s Austin. He’s so handsome. Half-breeds are really good-looking.”
“You’re right, but he seems not to have much time left.” A girl said in a low voice with regret.
Even so, it couldn’t stop them from being infatuated with Austin’s handsome face. Although there was also a school heartthrob in their class, they rarely saw Austin after all.
Austin greeted the girls who were looking at him with adoring eyes gently and politely, saying, “Hello, girls.”
“He’s so well-mannered.” The girls shrieked.
Cameron and Elijah didn’t say anything. This time, they walked forward in great tacit.
Austin wheeled his wheelchair and caught up. “Cameron, could you please help me get some food? You see, it’s hard for me to queue up in a wheelchair,” he said feebly.
Both Cameron and Elijah were at a loss for words.
Elijah frowned and thought, “Last night, I offered to carry Austin’s guitar for him, but he refused. Why is he bothering Cameron now?
He continued thinking, “Maybe Austin also knows that Cameron is a top student and wants to ask for tutoring, so he’s to get along with him.’ Elijah frowned even more tightly.

Cameron didn’t refuse to help Austin. Getting some extra food was an easy thing to do.
Austin smiled and said, “Thank you.” Then he started coughing again.
Elijah said, “Austin, you seem to be seriously ill. Why don’t you ask your family to pick you up?”
“Thank you for your concern,” Austin waved his hand and said, “It’s okay. The SAT is coming soon. I’ll stay at school for the next few days.”
When they arrived at the cafeteria, Cameron settled Austin in a corner and went to get food with Elijah.
Elijah said, “Cameron, don’t you think Austin is a bit strange?”
Cameron said, “Why say so?”
Elijah said, “He never used to bother us before, but he’s been bothering you all day today.”
Cameron said, “Maybe it’s because I seem more approachable.”
Elijah said, “What do you think?”
Cameron certainly didn’t think so since she always had a poker face. She couldn’t figure out what Austin was up to, nor did she want to guess. She thought she just needed to adapt to the situation.
Cameron brought back two trays of food and placed them in front of Austin, letting him choose. Austin chose the one with steak. He smiled and said, “Thank you, Cameron. You’re so nice.”
Cameron said, “It’s okay.”
Elijah sat down next to Cameron. He looked at Cameron, then at Austin, and frowned slightly.
Meanwhile, Xander and his basketball team members were sitting not far away having lunch. Seeing Cameron and the others here, he thought it over and finally didn’t join them for lunch.
He thought, ‘So what if Cameron is able to shoot? He’s so short. I bet he can’t even touch the basketball on the court.’
Cameron seemed to feel Xander’s resentful gaze and turned to look over. However, the first person Cameron saw wasn’t Xander but Milena, who was a few rows away from Xander.
Seeing Milena, Cameron couldn’t help but turn cold. She was curious whether the Wallace family could still afford the annual tuition fee of 300 thousand dollars at Langford Academy without the support of the Chapman family and how long Milena could still study here.
Nevertheless, these things had nothing to do with her. Cameron quickly withdrew her gaze and continued eating.
Maybe because he saw Cameron and the others, Xander didn’t enjoy his lunch very much. At this moment, his phone on the dining table vibrated. Xander glanced at it and immediately grabbed the phone.
Milena: [Mr. Murphy, have you had lunch?]
Xander quickly put down his fork to reply to the message. Xander: [I’m having it now. How about you?]
The message from Milena made a large part of the depression in Xander’s heart disappear.
Milena: [What a coincidence. Me too.]
Xander: [Ms. Wallace, it’s Friday today. Will your school have a holiday?]
Milena looked up at Xander. Seeing that Xander was staring intently at his phone, a proud smile appeared on her face.
Milena: [Yes, it will. Why?]
When Xander saw the word “holiday”, his heart started pounding. In his mind, the bright image of Milena in a red dress involuntarily emerged.
Xander: [Ms. Wallace, do you have time to have a meal together tonight? I know a restaurant where the steak tastes really good. May I have the honor?]
Xander typed and deleted this sentence several times before finally sending it out. After sending it, he tightly held his phone and stared intently at the chat dialog box.
When Milena received this message, she was taken aback. She definitely couldn’t agree to meet. If they met, her lie would surely be exposed.
She looked at Xander, who was full of expectation to see her, from a distance and felt sorry. She thought, ‘If only Xander had seen me that day instead of that bitch Cameron!’

However, no matter how unwilling Milcha was, she had to refuse Xander.
Milena: [Sorry, Mr. Murphy. I’ve made an appointment with a friend to watch a movie tonight.]
When Xander received this message, a disappointed expression immediately appeared on his face.
After a long while, Xander sent another message: [What about tomorrow? Are you free tomorrow?]
Milena was silent. She certainly couldn’t date tomorrow, but she also didn’t want to refuse Xander. Seeing his disappointment, she was also very sad,
Milena: [I’m not sure if I’m free tomorrow. Can I reply to you tomorrow?]
Xander held the phone and a smile appeared on his face. He had a little bit of expectation, and the depression of being repeatedly rejected by Cameron also vanished.
Seeing Xander’s smile, Milena also smiled, wondering what Xander’s expression would be when he knew that it was actually her who had been chatting with him all along.
Nevertheless, she couldn’t overthink now. Anyway, the person who could attract Xander now was her, and it could only be her in the future. Milena wouldn’t give Cameron any chance to steal Xander away.
After Cameron finished her lunch and had just put the tray in the designated place, she received a message from Bradley.
Bradley: [It’s Friday today. You can go and take a look at your house. I’ll send you the password later. Let me know if you’re missing anything. I’ll come over later and bring it to you.]
Cameron thought about it; she really had nowhere else to go.
Cameron thought about it. She really had nowhere else to go. Staying in the dormitory, she might continue to suffer from Elijah’s torture.
So she decided to temporarily live in the house Bradley sold her. Cameron: [Okay]
Cameron held her phone and walked to the entrance of the cafeteria. Elijah and Austin were standing there waiting for her. She was a bit stunned and couldn’t figure out why they were waiting for her.
They said simultaneously, “Cameron.”
“Hey, hey, hold on.” Cameron raised her hand and interrupted them. “I gotta go now. If you have anything to say, just wait until I finish.”
After saying that, she walked straight away, leaving the two of them looking at each other in shock.
