She didn't know whether it was typical for a couple to be at each other's throats like this, but she just couldn't take it well. Feeling overwhelmed, she would become quite fragile at such times. She could do nothing but let the tears run down her cheek quietly.

  On the other side of the door, Luke was standing in front of it, biting his lip. He wanted to knock on the door, but lowered his hand in the end. He didn't know how to open the closed door just like he did not know how to open his own heart.

  Love might?not come through the rigorous trials of?quarrels. They had always had a hard time strengthening their bond, but today's conflict had made their relationship reach its new low.

  Once Michelle arrived at the college on Monday, Hilda came to her with an apologetic look on her face. She opened her mouth, hesitated, and swallowed hard. It could be seen in her eyes that she had a lot to say. "Are you still mad at me, Michelle?" She finally asked.

  "No, I'm not. Really. Don't get me wrong," Michelle said blandly. Her expression was a bit cold today, apparently she still was not in a good mood. Hilda thought that she was still upset with her, thus giving her the cold shoulder. But in fact, Michelle was distracted by her troubles with Luke. She just couldn't understand why they would fall out so often, and deadlock seemed inevitable. To make things worse, neither of them would concede once they bickered. So she didn't know what to do now.

  "Okay, then what's wrong with you? You look a bit exhausted. Didn't you get a good night's sleep?" Hilda asked with concern.

  "No, I didn't." Michelle said simply. Obviously, she didn't want to talk about this.

  Hilda bit her lip. She wasn't stupid, so surely she could sense the coldness in Michell

  ichelle," Bradley said. He drove his sports car very slowly alongside Michelle, with his handsome face sticking out of the window. Without a doubt, he had drawn a lot of attention, and people around all craned their necks to listen in on their conversation.

  "There's no need. I'll take the bus. It's much more convenient," Michelle refused, quickening her pace and walking towards the school gate. All she wanted now was to get rid of him, making him go away. She was married after all and wanted nothing to do with other men.

  "Hey, I know what's on your mind. But don't be afraid, I don't bite! I won't force you to do anything that you're not comfortable with," Bradley just would not give up. In fact, he had tried all his best to approach her the whole day, but every single time, she would cleverly avoid him. This might be his last chance today, so he must try and seize it.

  "Did you ever think you could? Don't be silly. Stop talking me into it, I won't buy it. You are just wasting your time!" Michelle smirked. If they were not in a school, and he wasn't a student, she would have definitely beaten him up, rather than let him make such a fuss in front of her.
