Chapter 33 A Honey Trap
Carlie’s expression changed. “What are you talking about? | didn’t send the post!”
Then she lifted her chin, and there was a hint of mockery in her eyes. “Just tell us. Did you or didn’t you ever say that?” Audrey smiled. “I did.”
“It seems that the post is telling the truth. Audrey, it’s like you are inviting others to laugh at you. Not only you but also our class teacher and everyone in Class 10 have been laughed at by other classes!
“You're a jinx, you know?” The second Carlie finished speaking, she heard a loud bang.
Sterling, who had been playing games, dropped his phone on the desk and looked at Carlie with dark, cold eyes. “How long are you going to stand here?”
Carlie was stunned. She looked at his angry, disgusted eyes, and a chill ran down her spine. She thought, “Is he talking to me?”
She was always a proud girl who was the center of attention of most of the boys in the class, and no one ever scolded her or gave her the cold. shoulder. Yet Sterling did those two things at the same time.
Her eyes turned teary, and her eyelashes trembled slightly. “Sterling,

are you talking to me?”
Looking at Carlie, who was about to shed tears, Sterling had no sympathy at all. He said coldly. “Piss off.”
Carlie’s tight lips trembled slightly. With the homework sheets in her arms, she couldn’t help but cry. She stamped her foot and said, “Sterling, you are too much!” Then she ran out crying.
Audrey bent over her desk and leaned closer to Sterling’s desk.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
She pressed one of her checks against her arm, and her other cheek looked tender and flawless. She smiled, and a dimple could be seen clearly. She smelled like strawberries somehow, and she stared at him, her eyes glowing. “So, ‘piss off is your pet phrase.”
Sterling pressed the tip of his tongue against his back teeth and looked gloomily at her. “Seducing me won't work.” Audrey was taken aback by his words.
She thought, “Does he have a deep misunderstanding of me because of the note last time?
“Everything | do seems like a honey trap to him.”
Audrey flicked her ponytail back behind her and said while blinking, “I wasn’t seducing you.” Then she mumbled, “That’s not how | seduce people.”
Sterling’s tough, smooth jaw tightened all of a sudden. He picked up his phone and didn’t even bother to lift his eyes again. After some time passed, he heard her soft, delicate voice, saying, “Sterling... You are holding your phone upside down.” Sterling put away his phone and left his seat, looking sullen.

When the class bell rang, the class teacher came in and saw the tall, thin boy in the back row who was walking out. “Where are you going, Sterling?”
It seemed that Sterling didn’t hear the teacher’s words at all. He strode out with his slender legs already. Jase sitting in the back said, “I le’s going to the bathroom.”
The class teacher frowned, disappointed at the poor students, figuring that they would be nothing but parasites who could only rely on their parents to survive in the future.
After the first class, the head teacher walked out of the classroom and went back to the office.
Olivia Elizabeth, the class teacher of Class I, looked at her and smiled, “Emily, | heard that Audrey of your class claimed to enter the top three of the grade in this month’s exam. If she makes it, | have to
congratulate you then. After all your years of teaching, you've finally brought out an outstanding student!”
