Claire had just winked at Hillary to say hello.
After all, she was in the line right next to hers.
Claire ate her food, listening to Lucinda's endless stream of gossip. Surprisingly, it made the meal much more enjoyable.
"Did you guys know? The most attractive guy on campus isn't Reid Dalton from the computer science department, nor is it Zane York from the law school, and it's definitely not any of the seniors in the medical school."
"Then who is it?" Priscilla looked desperate for the answer.
She had seen all three of those guys.
In her eyes, Caleb Lewis, who had eaten with Claire the other day, was actually quite outstanding.
He had a gentle, captivating aura about him.
Unfortunately, a handsome guy like that was completely out of her league.
Besides, someone like him would never look twice at a naive girl like her.
"It's Professor Churchill from the math department! He's the undisputed heartthrob of The Cabinda University!"
Claire wasn't surprised in the slightest, while realization dawned on Priscilla.
If it had been anyone else, she might have argued.
But Professor Norris Churchill truly was the perfect combination of beauty and brains.
Priscilla had no counterargument.
"Professor Churchill really is my exact type!" Priscilla sighed.
She nudged Claire with her elbow. "What do you think, Claire?"
"Who's hotter, your fiancé or Professor Churchill?"
Norris, who had just finished getting his food and happened to be walking past his cousin, stopped in his tracks.
Well, he wanted to know too. Who was more important, her cousin or her boyfriend? Claire was completely oblivious to the approaching danger.
"I think they both have their own unique charm!" Claire didn't dare make a reckless judgment; if those two found out, they might actually get into a fight.
Besides, she felt she was telling the truth.
Norris's looks and Dane's looks were entirely different types.
Norris always had this scholarly, untouchable aura around him.
When he was cold, it was a freezing, distant kind of cold, completely different from Dane.
Dane had deep, striking features with an aggressive edge.
He carried a constant 'don't mess with me' vibe.
Which type did Claire personally prefer?
Secretly, she liked Norris's type better.
But Dane wasn't bad either.
"What do you mean 'unique charm'? You have to pick a winner!" Priscilla slammed the table playfully.
Standing right behind them, Norris nodded in agreement. Exactly, there must be a winner.
Lucinda was completely speechless.
She never expected that talking
about
Someone behind their bet
would instantly summon the actual
person!
Professor Churchill looked like he was smiling, but who knew if he was about to snap?
Don't be fooled by his looks; he was the most unapproachable flower on campus.
Students who had taken his classes always warned that he was not someone to cross.
When he failed someone, he was merciless.
He absolutely could not be offended!
Lucinda desperately tried to shoot
the two girls a warning look, but net
neither Claire nor Priscilla noticed.
Listening to Priscilla, Claire felt like she was just trying to stir up trouble.
Then again, Priscilla had no idea that Norris was her cousin.
"I can't choose. They're both gorgeous, so why do I have to rank them?"
Priscilla pouted, disappointed. "I think Professor Churchill is way hotter than your fiancé!"
"Wait, if you two don't eat now, your
food is going to get cold," Lave
interrupted taking the bullet
her new friends.
Please stop talking. What if Claire argued that her fiancé was hotter?
Professor Churchill was standing right there listening to everything.
Sensing something was off, Claire turned her head and immediately came face-to- face with her cousin.
She instinctively blurted out, "Norris!"
