บท 36: Rumors Flying Around

Amon looked at the stunning woman sitting on her chair while she is looking back at him, she also has a surprised look on her face similar to Amon.

Amon then smiled and walked into the office room and closed the door behind him.

"Miss Caroline, I didn't expect you to be the person I will be sharing the office, nice to meet you again". Amon said and walked towards her desk.

Caroline got up from her chair to greet Amon, as she got up and looked up at Amon, she finally realized how tall Amon really is.

She herself is a tall woman who stands at 5 feet 10 inches, in this part of the world where the average height of a man is 5 feet 9 inches, she is taller than the average man in this country, even her own husband is an inch shorter than her but height really doesn't matter to her.

If they did, she would have not married her husband, she cares more about money and status, if looks come with them she will be happy, her husband is better than average, even though he is shorter than her, it doesn't matter because he is rich and has a good social status.

But when comparing her husband to the man standing in front of her, she had the lift her head high to look at him, she couldn't help but acknowledge how good-looking this man really is.

She expected him to be big when she first saw him in the principal's office but that time he was sitting on a chair so she couldn't fully gauge his height but now that he stands in front of her, she finally realizes that he towers over most men in the world, there are still many who are taller than him but those are even rarer.

"Ah, I also didn't expect you to be the one I will be sharing the office with, welcome". She said and extended her hand to shake his, he also did the same and shook her hand.

Caroline felt her hand being squeezed in his even though he was not putting any effort because of its size.

"Thank you, I hope we get along". Amon said and let go of her hand, he didn't want to intimidate Caroline, he wanted her to get comfortable around him.

He then went to the empty desk which is next to her desk and started to set up his things.

"So how was your day?" Amon asked.

"It was fine, just some kids causing trouble during class, and with the rumors going around, it has been quite eventful". She said in frustration.

"Oh, is it because of the boy who proposed to you?". Amon asked.

"Yes, I can't express how embarrassing it was, not only did that boy have the gull to ask me out, he asked me out in front of other students right in the middle of the corridor, now there is a rumor going around that I sleep with my students and that I am a slut". Caroline uttered her words in frustration before realizing that she had just spoken out her mind in front of Amon.

She didn't expect herself to actually open up in front of a stranger, maybe it was because of his handsome face that she had a good impression about Amon so she eased up around him.

"I see, too bad, kids these days don't know how to act, I hope the rumors die down". Amon said and took his seat.

Caroline looked at Amon and couldn't help but admire his looks again, since she has always lived a high standard life, every aspect of her life has had a high standard, whether it is the school she went to, the things she was gifted, even her relationships were of high standards.

Her boyfriends were either son of rich men or top-class athletes, and she never lowered her standards, even her current husband is amongst the top elites of this city, he represents several massive corporations that have international influence.

Even her current job is high class, to be a teacher in this college requires one to have very high qualifications.

The reason why Caroline decided to become a teacher was that it was a low effort high paying job compared to her other options which either were low paying low effort or high paying high effort jobs.

And she didn't need to worry about money at all because her father left her massive fortune behind and she could live her ten next lives in luxury.

Throughout her whole life, she always emphasized power and money over someone's looks, but today was different, she couldn't help but get lost sometimes when she stared at Amon.

Amon noticed Caroline staring at him but he didn't bother to confront her about it, Caroline is not some innocent girl who will shy away if she got called out, she would instead get annoyed at him.

Caroline then snapped out of her own state and thought how foolish her action now just was.

'Shit, get your shit together, he is handsome but that is all he has to him, he is young, inexperienced, and poor, I don't want to get involved and ruin my life'. Caroline thought and went back to her work.

None of them talked to each other until the bell rang which indicated the lunch break.

Amon has one more class after this lunch break, till then he will have to make it by, he looked at Caroline and saw that she was still busy with her work.

"Miss. Caroline, would you like to join me to lunch?" He asked her.

Caroline looked at Amon and his smile and for some reason she found herself nodding at him.

"Great, I am starving". Amon said and got up.

'Why the fuck did I agree, I need to get this man of my mind'. She thought and looked at his muscular wide back 'No wonder every girl in college is going crazy over him, he is very handsome and very fit, even I am getting swayed by him, I need to calm down, nothing is going to happen between us and I have a husband. I will not risk my current life with an affair'. She thought and got up and followed Amon.

On their way, Amon and Caroline talked, they mostly talked about work.

Amon was very careful with Caroline, she is not someone who will give in to her desires so easily, she is a woman who uses logic, has money, power, and looks. Amon also knows she already has a great life and she will not risk it just to fuck a good-looking man, he has nothing right now that would make Caroline take the risk.

So he made sure to not make any flirty advances towards her right now, if he does, Caroline will easily pick up on it and will do her best to keep her distance from him. For now, Amon's approach with her will just be work-related.

He needs to find a way and put Caroline on the spot where she has to be the one to make an advance, and when she does that, her defense will be weak and Amon can take advantage of that and then slowly corrupt her.

Both of them made their way to the cafeteria and bought some things they would like to eat, they then found a place to sit and started to talk again.

Since they were not alone in the cafeteria, the students, of course, noticed Caroline and Amon talking to each other and seeing how close Caroline the cold bitch who is notoriously known for her cold demeanor and ruthless methods sitting so close to Amon and talking to him with a smile on her face, the students thought that something was going on between them.

The girls who have now developed a crush on Amon just clicked their tongue as they saw Caroline sitting next to him, while others were still very doubtful about their relationship as they both are teachers.

Caroline didn't even pay attention to these students, as she continued to talk to Amon, she found herself being very comfortable around him, maybe it was because of his confidence and good looks that she didn't find anything wrong with him and till now he didn't show any sign of interest in her and this made Caroline have a positive impression on Amon.

She knows she is a very attractive woman, everywhere she goes people can't help but stare at her and some bold ones even make sexual remarks over her, some people are so bold that they even make remarks on here when she is out with her husband.

So having someone who showed no interest whatsoever on their very first time interacting was something new to her.

Amon of course knows what he was doing, all the questions he asked Caroline were work-related and since he is a new teacher, he asked her about the do's and don'ts of being a teacher and Caroline was happy to teach him about a few stuff.

While Amon and Caroline were minding their own business, some students took pictures of them sitting together and posted them online and already started to spread rumors, the ones who posted it didn't outright say that something was going on between them but they did make a statement and put a question mark at the end of it.

This statement was, of course, made to create controversy. Caroline and Amon didn't have any idea that the students are already making up rumors about them having an affair just because they have been seen together.

And with Caroline's current reputation, some students believed that she is a slut who sleeps around, the fact that Amon is also very handsome the students believed that Caroline threw herself at him.

Lunch break was over and Amon returned to his office with Caroline, they still don't know about the commotion that has been going online in the college's student forum, in this forum every student learns about what is happening in college.

All types of scandals, rumors, and events that are taking place in college can be found here, and because of the current scandal going on, the forum is filled with students speculating about the relationship between Amon and Caroline.

There are students who portrayed Caroline as the villain here for no apparent reason and branded her a slut and brought up the rumors about her sleeping with students, there were also some students who put blame on Amon and said that he must have seduced Caroline, there were of course boys who got jealous of him for seating the attention of girls they liked.

But of course, the number of students blaming Amon was very little, there were also many students who didn't believe in this rumor because they knew this is just a rumor with no proof to prove that it's real, it's just a picture of two teachers eating together.

After returning to the office, Amon went for his next class that is English literature, he will be teaching students about literature and he knows a lot about literature as well because he is fucking omnipotent and has stored every information that was available to him on the internet inside his mind.

Now he just needs to show off as he did in his previous class.
