Unexpectedly, James gave such a straightforward answer. He had feelings for Nell.
Bryson and Audrey looked at each other, and Audrey signaled Bryson to continue asking.
"Ms. Nell will meet Mr. Hall tomorrow. What do you think of it?" Bryson asked.
This time, James also gave a straightforward answer. "She won't have time to go!"
Bryson smiled.
"Then I wish you to be with her as soon as possible!"
"Thank you!"
James hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Audrey sighed and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Walker to like Nell."
"Didn't you want to matchmake them?" Bryson said with a smile.
"Yes. But Nell has always said that Mr. Walker is not the type that she likes. Moreover, Nell is very afraid of Mr.
Walker. So, after thinking about it, I put this matter aside."
"That's their business. We should not get involved too much."
Audrey nodded.
...
On the other side, Harold received a call from Audrey. He packed up his things, took his bag, and prepared to leave
the Student Union office.
Audrey and the others would take about ten minutes to arrive. If Harold went to the school gate now, he would be
there on time.
Harold had just walked to the door when he saw a person stepping on a ladder and writing on the blackboard
outside the classroom. She almost finished.
The person who was stepping on the ladder to write the blackboard was Winnie.
Harold moved his eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Winnie saw Harold coming out, she turned her head and looked at Harold with a smile. "Harold, are you going
home?"
"Why are you still here so late at night? It can be done tomorrow. You don't have to rush to finish it now. You should
hurry home." Harold frowned and looked at Winnie.
Winnie smiled. "I live in the school dormitory most of the time now. Besides, my roommate is studying in the
teaching building. So, it's okay. And I'll finish it soon. I'll go to my roommate after I finish."
Harold glanced at the blackboard and frowned. "I'll help you finish the rest. You shall go to your roommate."
"No need, no need. Aren't you going out? Moreover, if you don't leave now, you'll be late in a while. So, you should
hurry up and leave. I'll write it myself!" Winnie touched her face, her face stained with the chalk dust on her fingers.
Winnie uttered a feeble cry and quickly wiped her face.
Unfortunately, because her hands were full of chalk dust, the more she wiped, the more chalk dust was on her
face.
Winnie was nervous. The ladder she was stepping on shook and she almost fell.
Harold took two steps forward and supported Winnie who was about to fall down the ladder.
Winnie exclaimed. She thought that she was going to fall down the ladder, but unexpectedly, Harold held her in his
arms.
Winnie raised her head and saw Harold was concerned.
"Are you alright?" Harold asked.
Winnie stared at Harold with wide eyes.
Winnie couldn't believe that she was in Harold's arms.
Winnie quickly jumped down from Harold's arms.
"Sorry, sorry, I was careless just now!" On the contrary, Winnie was concerned about Harold. "Are you alright? Are
you hurt?"
Harold was silent.
Winnie was the one who had fallen from the ladder, but she was concerned about whether Harold had been hurt,
which made Harold somewhat unsure of how to respond to her.
Harold said, "I'm fine, but you, are you hurt just now?"
Hearing that Harold was fine, Winnie breathed a sigh of relief. Then she shook her head at Harold and smiled
brightly. "No. Look at me. Aren't I fine now?"
Harold smiled and looked at Winnie's smiling face.
A gust of wind blew, and the wind in autumn was very cold. Winnie didn't wear much. And suddenly, she trembled
because of the cold wind.
Harold frowned, took off his coat, and draped it over Winnie's shoulder.
The warmth that belonged to Harold instantly enveloped Winnie's entire body. She felt warm and was a little dazed,
and she even felt warm in her heart.
Winnie raised her head and looked at Harold blankly.
Seeing that Harold was only wearing a short-sleeved shirt, Winnie was afraid that he would be cold, so she quickly
took off the coat and handed it back to him.
"Harold, you should wear it yourself. I'm not cold."
Harold draped his coat over Winnie's shoulders and pressed his hands against her shoulders, preventing her from
taking it off.
"You're a girl, you should keep yourself warm. I'm a boy and I'm not afraid of the coldness, so you should wear this
coat."
Winnie felt the strength of Harold on her shoulders, and she could not help but blush.
Harold insisted that Winnie should keep the coat, Winnie blushed shyly. "Thank you, Harold."
Looking at Winnie's blushing face, Harold realized what he had done and took a step back subconsciously.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Then go back after you finish it!"
After saying that, Harold took his bag and prepared to leave.
"Wait, Harold!" Winnie suddenly stopped Harold.
Harold turned around.
Under the dim corridor light, Winnie stood there. She had a slender figure. Her smile was sweet. The curve of her
mouth was like a cat that had obtained some delicious food. It made Harold dazed for a moment.
"What's wrong?" Harold's heart was pounding.
Winnie smiled more happily.
"Harold, can I like you?" Winnie said to Harold suddenly.
The night wind suddenly became louder, but Harold heard what she had said.
Even without this night wind, Harold could still hear Winnie's words.
Harold's heart was pounding once again.
Looking at Winnie's sweet smiling face, Harold's heart kept pounding.
"You ... What did you say?" Harold looked at Winnie and couldn't believe what he had heard.
Winnie smiled more happily, and she said word by word, "Harold, I like you very much. I want to ask you, can I like
you?"
Winnie said even more straightforwardly than the previous.
This sentence was even clearer, but it also made Harold even more unable to believe. He stood in place, stunned.
Seeing Harold was stunned, Winnie felt her heart was about to jump out of her throat.
Winnie waited nervously for Harold's answer, but Harold just stood there without any reaction, and she did not know
what he was thinking.
Looking at Harold, Winnie boldly stepped forward. Harold stared at her. She held Harold's shoulders with both hands
and tiptoed to gently kiss Harold's cheeks. Then, she quickly ran away.
