Babel Novel
Chapter 6
Chapter 6 Horrible Freak Audrey almost strangled Patrick when she heard his new idea. “I'll reckon with you later.”
Audrey was irritated. But on second thought, she couldn’t blame Patrick. He meant well. Audrey was suddenly back in high school. How could Patrick know what she wanted?
After all, Audrey hated Sterling before.
Sterling bought a bottle of water in a store and came back to the classroom. Standing before his desk, he raised his head and drank several mouthfuls of water. The girls sitting in front couldn’t help looking back at him with shyness and admiration.
The stare of his admirers had happened so often he was used to it. Without turning his head, he put the lid back on the bottle and opened the drawer of his desk.
Audrey ran to the classroom. When she reached the back door, she happened to see Sterling open the drawer. “No, wait...”
But her warning came too late. The stone-faced boy had opened the drawer.
Audrey's heart was in her mouth.
“Don't be afraid. I'll help you!”
When Audrey finished speaking, Sterling had reached his hand into the drawer.
A 10-cm-long pure green snake was in his hand. He was holding the heart spot of the snake.
Timid students screamed at the sight of the snake.
Despite being the Bad Girl, Audrey was a girl, after all. Her legs went soft when she saw the snake.
She couldn't help taking a few steps back.
Sterling glanced at Audrey. His eyes were dark as if light couldn’t get in. They sent a chill in the heart of anyone meeting them. “Let me explain. Actually...”Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
The rest of Audrey’s words were left unsaid. The struggling snake was killed when Sterling tightened his grip. Then, he raised his hand. The dead snake flew above Audrey’s head into the dustbin behind her.
Blood drained from Audrey's face. A chill crept down her spine as if an invisible hand was choking her.
The tail of the dead snake seemed to have touched her forehead.
She wasn’t the only scared one. The faces of the girls in the classroom all went pale with fright.
But the aloof Sterling took a wet napkin and calmly wiped his fingers. His chiseled face betrayed no sign of nervousness. The cruelty he just displayed sent a chill to everyone present.
He pulled out the chair and sat down.
The bell rang. The last lesson in the afternoon began. Audrey finally sat down slowly.
Patrick also came and saw the scene.
It was surprising that Sterling wasn’t even scared of snakes. He even squeezed it to death. Not anyone was capable of that. Sterling was a horrible freak with a dark personality!
It took Audrey half the lesson to slow down her racing heart.
When she was finally calm, she summoned the courage to look at Sterling.
To her surprise, the guy was bending on the desk asleep as if nothing had happened.
His face was buried in his arms. Audrey could only see his neat, short hair and smooth, long neck.
She had always seen Sterling as her archenemy in her previous life and considered him a pushover. When Sterling became campus king, Audrey finally realized he was just too proud to fight a girl.
Sterling was capricious and paranoid. His cold and slovenly air seemed innate. He had more admirers after becoming school king. However, neither he nor his admirers made trouble for Audrey!
