Chapter 500 - 497: Sassy Jian Goes Online

Yuna Sutton was causing a huge scene, and many students around them had already turned to look.

Many of them didn’t recognize this Yuna Sutton.

"Who is this? She’s gorgeous, but she doesn’t seem to think before she speaks."

Chloe Sinclair, uneducated and uncultured?

If she was uneducated and uncultured, what did that make ordinary people like them?

And so, the students started looking at Yuna Sutton like she was an idiot.

Perhaps because there were so many questions, it wasn’t long before a few students started explaining Yuna Sutton’s identity.

"Yuna Sutton is from the Computer Science department. She’s their ’department beauty,’ but of course, she’s not in the same league as Chloe Sinclair."

"The Computer Science building is pretty far from the School of Physics. They have their own cafeteria over there, so who would come all this way just to eat? Besides, I sat in Chloe Sinclair’s spot just yesterday. There’s no way she’s been sitting there for a year like Yuna Sutton claimed. I bet she’s here specifically to cause trouble for Chloe."

"I heard from a friend in Computer Science that Yuna Sutton has a thing for Wyatt Thorne, their department’s heartthrob. She confessed her feelings last semester but got rejected. Apparently, she later found out it was because Wyatt has a secret crush on Chloe Sinclair. Yuna is the precious daughter of a wealthy family in Emberfall; no one’s ever turned her down before. She’s probably making trouble for Chloe because of that."

"Is there something wrong with this Yuna Sutton? The department heartthrob rejected her, so why is she bothering Chloe Sinclair instead of him? Does Chloe even know the guy?"

"I bet they’ve never even met."

This cafeteria was mostly filled with students from the School of Physics and the School of Mathematics. Seeing Chloe Sinclair get bullied by Yuna Sutton like this, they were all indignant.

But no one dared to step forward.

Yuna Sutton’s background was just too powerful, and they didn’t dare take the risk.

However, Chloe Sinclair overheard everything they said. She looked at Yuna Sutton, a new emotion stirring in her eyes.

’Wyatt Thorne. A person who was only supposed to appear several years from now.’

The first time she met Wyatt Thorne in her past life, the man had already climbed his way into high society. It wasn’t through glorious means, but quite a few people still admired him for it.

But in her past life, Wyatt Thorne was Nina Sinclair’s boyfriend.

Now, hearing his name, she furrowed her brow instinctively.

Wyatt Thorne was not a good person. She knew this better than anyone.

The shady things he did in her past life were enough for him to die a thousand, even ten thousand, times over.

After being reborn, she had originally planned to keep Nina Sinclair around to draw out Wyatt Thorne. She never expected Nina to be so stupid as to get herself killed ahead of schedule.

If his name hadn’t suddenly come up today, she would have almost forgotten who Wyatt Thorne was.

She suddenly felt that Wyatt Thorne had been inextricably linked to certain events in her past life.

’Nina Sinclair is so foolish in this life; she must have been the same in the last one. Without someone pulling the strings from behind, how could her actions have been so meticulous?’

She looked at Yuna Sutton, her brow still furrowed, and said sarcastically, "And are you the one who decides whether I’m educated or not?"

Yuna Sutton opened her mouth.

Although they went to the same university, she actually didn’t know much about Chloe Sinclair.

She had only started following her on Weibo after finding out that Wyatt Thorne liked Chloe Sinclair.

She had read a lot of negative gossip about Chloe Sinclair and became increasingly convinced that, aside from being prettier than most, Chloe had no other redeeming qualities.

She had come to this cafeteria to corner Chloe Sinclair countless times but had never once run into her.

Now that she finally had, just a few words from Chloe had left her speechless.

Yuna Sutton tried to speak several times, but Chloe cut her off each time.

For a moment, her expression was utterly awful.

Humiliated, she blurted out, "Get out. My father had this cafeteria built for me. You’re not welcome here."

Chloe Sinclair raised an eyebrow. "If I’m not mistaken, your Computer Science department has a new academic building, right?"

Yuna Sutton was confused for a moment but still replied, "Yes, so what?"

"Oh, nothing," Chloe Sinclair said lightly. "I just wanted to let you know that the place you study every day was funded and built by my boyfriend."

"PFFT—"

"HAHAHAHA!"

The students who heard this couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing without reservation.

The sounds of laughter rose and fell throughout the cafeteria.

Yuna Sutton’s face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

But with so many students watching, she felt trapped, unable to back down gracefully.

Suddenly, a commotion erupted from the back of the crowd. Many students repeatedly looked back, automatically clearing a path.

Even Yuna Sutton looked over. The moment she saw who it was, her eyes filled with delighted surprise. She trotted over, immediately putting on a pitiful expression.

"Wyatt!"

Yuna Sutton adopted a demure, girlish posture, standing beside Wyatt Thorne and clinging to him like a delicate bird.

Wyatt Thorne was about 185 centimeters tall, with a slender build, sharp brows, striking eyes, and fair skin. He had the air of a gentle, polished jade.

The moment Yuna Sutton saw Wyatt Thorne, her earlier combative attitude vanished without a trace.

She sniffled slightly. "Wyatt, what are you doing here?"

She was a little flustered.

After all, cornering someone in the cafeteria wasn’t exactly a noble act. If Wyatt Thorne found out, there was no telling what he would think of her.

Wyatt Thorne glanced down at Yuna Sutton and said softly, "Miss Sutton, what brings you to this cafeteria today?"

Sure enough, Yuna Sutton’s face paled, and for a moment, she didn’t know what to say.

She looked around and saw that everyone was just watching the show.

She hesitated, then stammered, "I... I heard the food at this cafeteria is really good, so I thought I’d come try it today."

The moment she finished speaking, Chloe Sinclair cut in without a hint of politeness, "Didn’t Miss Sutton just say she’s been eating here for a whole semester?"

Yuna Sutton gritted her teeth, suddenly wanting nothing more than to grab Chloe Sinclair by the hair and beat her up.

’This woman and her damn mouth!’

She shot Chloe Sinclair a vicious glare, then quickly turned back and looked at the man beside her, saying urgently, "Wyatt, it’s not what you think!"

There was still no change in Wyatt Thorne’s eyes—not even a hint of confusion or surprise. He didn’t answer, nor did he seem angry.

Yuna Sutton knew that Wyatt Thorne didn’t intend to press the issue.

’Looks like Wyatt isn’t as infatuated with Chloe Sinclair as everyone says,’ she couldn’t help but think.

At this moment, Wyatt Thorne looked at Chloe Sinclair. Although he knew of her famous beauty, he couldn’t help but be a little stunned when he truly saw her for himself.

He stared at Chloe Sinclair for a long moment before she finally asked impatiently, "What are you looking at?"

’She really couldn’t bring herself to like this Wyatt Thorne person.’

’Back then, when she and Jasper Shaw died in a sea of fire, the gasoline on their bodies had been poured by Wyatt Thorne’s own hands.’

’Who would have thought that this top student, who seemed like such a graceful gentleman, would turn out to be a murderer?’

Chloe Sinclair hadn’t believed it before, but now she did.

Although Wyatt Thorne hid it well, Chloe still caught the flicker of calculation in his eyes.

Chloe Sinclair suddenly scoffed, her gaze taking on a superior air. "So this is the man Miss Sutton likes?"

"You have terrible taste."
