Chapter 173 His Eyes Held a Deeper Meaning After receiving the check, Audrey went to school. She met Sterling. Eden and a few others at the school gate.
They emerged from the small shop across from the school, with Sterling in the middle. He wasn’t wearing his school uniform that day, but a black jacket with the zipper undone. His hands were tucked into his pockets, chewing gum in his mouth. His clean, cold face exuded a sense of casual nonchalance.
Eden was the first to spot Audrey at the school gate, and winked at Sterling. and he smirked
Sterling lifted his head to look at Audrey, his dark, deep—set eyes slightly narrowed, the contours of his face suddenly becoming more sharp and fierce.
Last night, he made two calls that went unanswered. He waited until midnight, but she didn’t even reply with a single message. Audrey saw his expression and also remembered not answering his call.
At that time, her stepfather was around, but then he got delayed due to other matters, and she forgot to get back to him.
A few boys quickly came over.
Sterling stopped in his tracks. letting Eden and the others go ahead.
After Eden left, Sterling looked at Audrey, who was standing a few steps away from him, and said heavily, “Aren’t you coming over?”

Audrey jogpost up to him, her eyes clear and bright as she looked at him. “Brother, are you angry?” Sterling’s lips were tightly pressed into a thin line, his dark eyes gloss “What do you think?”
Audrey pulled out a check from her backpack. “My dad asked me to give this to you. The painting is too valuable. He appreciates your sentiment, but-”
Before she could finish speaking, the cheek was snatched away by the slender hand of the young man, who was about to tear it into pieces. Audrey quickly stopped him. “Hey, don’t tear it, don’t tear it.”
Sterling tugged at the corner of his lip. “Bring back the painting, and ril tear it up.” Audrey. “So much money, are you sure you don’t want it?”
He tugged at the comer of his lower lip, his smile a bit wicked, a bit mischievous. “If your father thinks it’s too much, you can ask him, is his daughter's first k*ss worth this money?”
Audrey clenched her fists and pounded on his arm. her fair face as white as jade flushing red. “You just want me to owe you more and more. so that when the time comes. | won't be able to resist whatever you want to do to me!”
Sterling touched his right cheek with the tip of his tongue, amused by her words. His slender and clean fingers pinched her rosy little face, “What do you think | did to you?”
Audrey slapped his hand away. I'm not talking to you anymore.” She covered her face with both hands and ran forward.
Sterling caught up with her in a few strides. his sharp—featured handsome face close to hers. “Remember the four words | told you!”
111 Audrey glared at him in embarrassment and anger, “Sterling, don’t say another word!”
Sterling grabbed the strap of her backpack, slipped the check into it. and said. “Don’t pay this money back to your father-in-law, use it to buy yourself some candy”
Audrey, “You treated me like a kindergartener!”
Sterling glanced at her collarbone, his thin lips curving slightly, “Still a child indeed.” He said, hands in his pockets, and quickly walked
away. It took Audrey several seconds to understand the meaning of his words.
What the hell??
Was she a child?
So angry!!
Didn't want to deal with him today!
At the end of the month, a monthly exam was conducted.
In the classroom exam assigned based on the last score ranking. Audrey couldn’t be in the same classroom with Sterling anymore.
Before the exam, she went to the classroom where he was, bringing at bottle of milk with her. “I always drink a bottle before each exam, it helps to relieve the tension.” she said.
Sterling leaned his tall b*dy against the back of the chair. his shirt clinging to his chest due to his movement, outlining his lean yet broad

shoulders and the contours of his chest muscles. His dark eyes glanced at the milk in her hand, his expression a mix of amusement and seriousness. “Is this how you want me to drink it
Audre felt there was a deeper meaning in his gaze, she put the milk n the table and ran off with a blushing face
