37.5% Rise Of The Villain / Chapter 9: Lunch Together

Chapter 9: Lunch Together

The cafeteria was full of chatter. Even after the incident, the place was not the least bit affected.

Students were sitting in groups of 6 or less all around the room. talking and laughing or just gossiping while having their meal.

When Alec and Jenny entered the cafeteria, there were only a few tables with empty seats.

Alec wanted to tell her that they should not be a part of it since he knew how they had treated her, but when he looked at her smiling face, he did not want to ruin her mood.

Jenny picked up a tray and filled it with all the nutritious fruits and juice. After that, she walked to the nearby table where only four students were sitting with two empty seats.

"Umm, can we sit here?" She asked in a polite manner, but the boys looked at her as if she was a pest!

"No! " Their curt reply did not have any place for discussion. And to make sure that the couple did not sit with them, they filled the empty seat with their bags.

"Jenny, I think we should go and sit in the park." Although he could argue with all of them and have a seat for them, he did not want to waste his time on such measly matters.

He did not like arguing until it was badly needed.

"Oh! But the whole garden is still filled with police and staff! " She turned and pointed at the window from where they could see a swarm of humans covering the whole ground and discussing the matter.

He knew that she was still thinking about that incident, so he did not pursue the matter of going out, but he knew that these humans were too selfish to share! They would only insult her!

"It is okay, Alec. There are still a lot of empty seats there! " She pointed to two other tables where only three and two students were sitting.

And before Alec could deny it or think of a better solution, she had already walked towards the other table.

"Hey, can I use the empty seats?" She tried to sound friendlier, thinking that it was her mistake that others did not like her.

The girl sitting there craned her neck and looked at Jennie. But when her eyes fell on her large glasses and baggy uniform, her face turned ugly!

"Eeewww, no! If you sat here, my reputation would go down the drain! Have you ever looked into the mirror before approaching us? Go!! Do not pollute my eyes!"

She even covered her eyes in an exaggerated manner to show how painful it was to see Jenny.

Jenny was stunned for a minute. Since she was mostly alone, she had her meals in the library. The librarian was kind towards her and even gave her a few tasty treats sometimes.

But since she was with Alec, she did not want him to feel that she did not know anything except books, so she brought him here.

But if she had known that others here were so mean, she would not have persuaded him to come here with her.

She bit her lip to avoid spilling tears and looked away.

No! There are still a few tables left. None of them could not be mean. There were kind people too.

She assured herself that it was just one or two bullying kids.

Jenny! "

Alec had started to feel irritated. He wanted to go and beat the girl for behaving so cruelly, but he calmed himself. He did not want Jenny to feel that he was a monster like others.

He had already shown her his anger a few times in the day.

"Yes, Alec, there!" Jenny pointed at a seat and walked there, dragging the reluctant Alec with her.

"Hello! Can I?"

"Do you not have any self-awareness? Even if you were rejected twice, you still have the audacity to disturb others! Does a pest like you ever learn their lesson?"

The kid continued to have his burger and did not even give Jenny a glance or give her a chance to say what she wanted to as he insulted her, "Just shoo!" He waved his hands as if he was dealing with a rodent, not human.

Jenny was startled. She took a few steps back only to get her back touched by the chest of Alec, who was standing just behind her.

Feeling his presence, she closed her eyes and mustered a smile on her face.

Ah, that. Alec. I think...

"Shush. Let me try this time. Alright? " He held her shoulder and helped her stand properly again, this time giving her an assuring look.

She wanted to tell him that she was not hungry anymore and wanted to return to the library but he was not in a mood to listen.

So, she nodded with a sigh! Maybe it would be different for him!

"All right!" She nodded her head after a small sigh, and Alec nodded back with a reassuring look on his face.

His eyes observed the whole room and still focused on the two boys that were playing a game on their phones without caring about the whole cafeteria.

"Come with me!" he said, taking the tray from her hands, holding her hand with his other hand and taking her towards the corner table.

"Excuse me!" he called, and the boy made an annoyed face.

"Now, I am on the last stage of the game!" replied the kid, waving his other hand in the air to show that he was busy.

It is fine! I just wanted to say that we are sitting here! "he muttered as he placed the tray on the other side of the table and pulled a chair for Jenny in a gentlemanly manner.

She looked a bit hesitant before nodding and sitting there as she gave one more look to the boy, who did not reply afterwards.

Alec sat between the boy and Jenny and took a fruit from the tray.

"You should eat, you are looking too pale!" he muttered to the girl, who finally took her gaze away from the two boys and smiled towards Alec.

Nodding her head, she picked up an apple and started chewing it slowly.

When the boy finishes his game,

Damn it! I was that close to winning! Tsk! It is because of them! They disturbed me! " He looked furious as he looked at Alec, but his eyes widened and his face turned pale when his eyes met Alec's.

"Were you saying something??"
