Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

A Rose 539





Charlie came even better prepared that day. And yet, why was it Yvette had fallen asleep again?

He looked dejected. On the other hand, everyone in class secretly felt relieved, and they celebrated silently.

"Nice one, Yvie!" they thought.

They certainly didn't want Charlie to hold the class back again!

"Woohoo, class is out!"

"Professor Lawrence actually let us out early today! It's all thanks to Yvie for falling asleep, or else the class definitely would've gone on really late!"

"I know, right? Let's all give Yvie our thanks!"

The boys in class spoke up jokingly one after another. Meanwhile, the girls walked toward Yvette, hugging their books. They looked at her with hopeful expressions.

"Yvie, we didn't really understand these parts. Could you explain them to us?"

Yvette straightened her back slowly and nodded. "Sure."

"Wow, Yvie tutoring the class? I have to sit in on this!"

"Me too, me too. Let me have a listen!"

The class instantly became rowdy. Everyone moved toward Yvette and formed a circle around her, obediently listening to her teachings. Observing this from her position on the sidelines, Alice was practically turning green with

envy.

That bitch Yvette sure knew how to show off! However, she wouldn't be able to show off for

much longer...

After listening to Yvette's explanation, Madison and the rest felt as if they had been enlightened.

"So that's how it is... We get it now, Yvie. Thank you so much!"

"Yvie, I think you're better at teaching than Professor Lawrence!"

"I think so too. Why don't you consider teaching next time, Yvie?"

If Charlie overheard them, he'd probably cry himself to pieces in the bathroom.

“Alright, settle down, everyone. Yvie is a busy person, she doesn't have the time to teach!" Madison said hurriedly.

Although the others felt that it was quite a pity, they knew deep down that what Madison said

was true.

"If there's anything you don't get, feel free to come ask me about it." Yvette's cool voice rang out steadily.

Upon hearing her words, her classmates started cheering.

"Yahoo! Yvie, you're truly the best!"

Madison thoughtfully filled a glass of warm water from the dispenser and brought it over to Yvette. "Thank you for taking the time to explain the material to us, Yvie. Please have some water to soothe your throat!"

"Thanks." Yvette thanked her politely, accepting the glass.

Alice's gaze was fixed upon the drink in Yvette's hand. Her eyes gleamed with an eerie light, and a sinister smile tugged at her lips.

Yvette brought the glass to her lips. Just as she was about to take a drink, her expression shifted abruptly, and her face tightened.

"Where did this water come from?"

Madison didn't understand why Yvette became so serious all of a sudden. Still, she answered honestly, "I got it from the classroom's water dispenser, Yvie. Everyone in class drinks the

• water from the dispenser. Is something the matter?"

Yvette's expression turned even graver. She swept her gaze over the class.

"All of you drank this water?"Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“That's right, Yvie. We've all had some. We're already used to drinking water from the classroom dispenser!”

“Is something wrong, Yvie? If you're not used to drinking it, we'll go buy a bottle of water for you instead!"

Yvette spoke up slowly. Her words had the entire class turning pale.

"The water is poisoned."
