Chapter 535

The teachers trailed after him.

Before Sylvia could even realize what was happening, one of the teachers accidentally backed into her and sent her tumbling to the floor. It was a harder shove than it seemed. Sylvia stumbled twice and fell to the floor. Her knees scraped against the hard ground. She frowned, then picked herself up off the floor

It was at this point that a large, and delicate hand suddenly extended in front of her.

The restless group of teachers instantly stopped their ceaseless fawning and became silent.

Sylvia was rather taken aback by this. She looked up and saw a very familiar and handsome face. Underneath the man’s fringe was a pair of cool and beautiful eyes staring back at her.

Sylvia opened her eyes wide and mouth agape, “Thomas? Why are you here?” Thomas curled his lip into a smile. “I work here.” With that, he grabbed her by her wrist and lifted her from the ground. Sylvia was still reeling back from the shock “When did you start working here?” “A month ago.” After a pause, he asked, "Why are you here?”

“I'm working here too. I only just started today.”

"Have you had lunch yet?”

"No."

“Let's have lunch together.”

Sylvia felt countless needles prickling every part of her body. She looked behind her. It was the loathsome glare of the group of teachers penetrating through her. She chuckled dryly and changed her mind. “You know what? Maybe I shouldn't.” Thomas turned to look at his worshippers with a piercing gaze in his eyes that were devoid of warmth. They felt a chilling pang of cold seeping through their skin when they felt his gaze on them.

Thomas stated politely, “It's getting late, teachers. You girls should quickly get something to

eat.”

They took the hint. Some of them grunted a word or two in response while the others immediately turned and left, lookdng defeated. In time, they all walked away and branched off into several groups. Sylvia and Thomas went to a small restaurant near the school. Aster sitting down, Sylvia had many questions on her inind. “Thomas, what are you teaching here?”

After the meal, she went to ask for the bill before he could, only to find out that the bill had already been paid. She turned around with an astonished look
