Chapter 46: Rules and Regulations
"Hitting someone is never okay," May glared at Matthew. "But hitting someone who only wanted to give you the pointers for the exam is especially cruel." When Matthew said nothing, May continued, "So annoying! Hey, are you listening?" Matthew said nothing as May hovered in front of his desk. He had always disliked her fox-like eyes and found her voice even more irritating, but he chose to ignore it this time.
He sat at his desk, a book open in front of him, flipping through it slowly.
"He should be suspended," Elisa muttered from behind May.
Meanwhile, Catherine stood near the door, arms crossed, whispering to one of the other girls, clearly still fuming.
Matthew ignored them. His fingers turned another page. Mrs. Johnson must have thought that he was some worthless young master raised by the Lindberg Family, just like most people here.
But who could blame them?
Matthew’s father rarely show himself in public. Besides, his father thought it would be better to make everyone misunderstood Lenox as this would also protect Matthew from the people who might have an interest in the Linberg Family’s wealth.
He sighed inwardly as he looked up and scanned the room, his gaze landing on Lenox. The guy had been quiet ever since entering. Not a single word. Just sat there, pretending like nothing happened.
"Lenox," Matthew called without raising his voice. "Nan you keep your dogs’ mouths shut for a minute? They’re yapping again."
May let out a sound, stepping forward, but Lenox raised his hand.
