When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 2286

Why was Miranda so set on taking the young master abroad?

And from what Felix had just said, it sounded like neither Master Robert nor Mr. Robert knew anything about it.

The driver pulled out his phone and quietly sent Robert a text.

Miranda had no idea the driver had been bought off by Robert years ago.

Any time Miranda did anything suspicious, the driver would report it to Robert, and this time was no different.

"Come on. Get in the car. We're going home," Miranda said, giving in to her son.

Only then did Felix climb back into the car. "Mom. I'm not going back there. I want to go back to school and keep studying."

What he really wanted was to keep playing with the other kids.

After what had just happened, Miranda had no choice but to agree and take him back to the school.

Inside the school.

Everyone had assumed Felix wasn't coming back.

Dante couldn't help saying, "Felix finally got what was coming to him. He's so annoying. I hope he doesn't come back to our school."

His deskmate nodded too.

"Mm-hmm, Dante, you're right. None of us like him."

At that exact moment, Felix came swaggering up to the classroom doorway and happened to hear what they were saying.

His steps locked in place.

Something crowded his eyes.

None of them liked him?

Felix decided to stay at the doorway and listen.

He wanted to hear just how many people were talking behind his back.

What he didn't expect was that, other than Jonathan, everyone in the class was saying he was bad.

They said he bullied people.

They said they didn't want him staying at the school anymore.

Disbelief filled Felix's eyes.

He had always thought people found him pretty likable.

How had it turned into this?

"Felix, why are you back? And why are you standing out here?" The teacher called when he saw him from outside.

The voices inside the classroom cut off in an instant.

Felix strode in like he'd caught them with something they couldn't deny.

Then he sat down in his own seat.

He looked around.

Nobody was looking at him anymore, and nobody spoke to him either.

Jonathan's eyes lifted and landed on him.

Felix's chest gave a sudden jump.

"Jon."

Jonathan answered at that, then said, "If you don't want people to hate you, then be honest and behave yourself. Stop bullying other people."

Hearing that, Felix stuck out his lip.

"When did I ever bully them? They're the ones who are too annoying."

Jonathan looked at him and saw he still had no idea he'd done anything wrong. He simply stopped giving Felix any attention.

"Jon..." Felix called to him.

Jonathan lowered his head and kept working on his homework. He gave him nothing back.

When that got him nowhere, Felix turned to Dante instead. "Dante, don't forget it. Your Kennedy family still has to look to the Rainsworth family."

Dante let out a cold snort when he heard that and ignored him too.
