Mummy I got you a new husband

The Rumors



SELENE’S POVC0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Sitting in class, preoccupied on schoolwork, I could not seem to think about anything else. I need to keep up my good marks to guarantee that my scholarship was not taken away. Even though I now had Uncle Karl who was seemly very rich, I could just throw away everything. I decided I was going to continue to work hard regardless.

“This should be it, right?” I murmured to myself as I attempted to complete the maths; I could not seem to get them properly. I ultimately figured out how to do the calculations, and I smiled brightly, happy with my success. I was overjoyed with my accomplishment and raised my head, closing my book.

I turned around and looked at Xavier at his desk. After we were successful in putting our plan into action, we went into class as the bell rang signifying recess was over. I opted to do some homework after that as it was a free period. I caught a glimpse of him staring at me and I winked at him. ” Why was he staring though?” I thought to myself but soon waved it off not letting it bother me.

He smiled mischievously at me, and I smiled back. Our scheme was the finest there was, and I could not wait to see Davis’ expression when he found out about it. It would be so delightful.

“Happy birthday, Selene; I am sure your party was fantastic.” One of the kids approached me to taunt me about the my party, I knew she didn’t mean what she said and that she just wanted to mock me. I scowled at her and let out a groan in response. I had resolved not to let their talks upset me and thought about my plans with Davis instead.

Knowing in my mind that we had a plot in motion, I anticipated the outcome in the smallest possible time ever. For some reason, I felt so relieved knowing Davis was going to feel as hurt as I was when he did all of that drama at my party. I was going to deal with Davis and hurt him as much as he hurt me.

Soon enough Davis walked over to my seat and I wondered what it was about. ” Had he heard?” I questioned myself as I turned to face him, staring blankly. I wondered what he wanted to talk about it or ” Was it his usual bullying antics?” I asked myself as I couldn’t wait for him to spill what he was at my desk for.

“I know you did this!!!” He roared at me, and I figured he had heard the rumours; I tried not to laugh and glanced at him, pretending to be ignorant of what he was talking about.

“Did what?” I enquired as I gazed into his eyes. I tried not to giggle as I looked at his face; he appeared to be enraged. I ignored him and looked aside and opened my notes. Pretended to be completely focused on my notes, He looked at me for a second before snatching the notes, and I turned to face him with a stern frown.

“What did you do that for?” I asked, trying not to betray my happiness or make any facial expressions.

“I am certain you are involved in this.” He mouthed, confirming my guess that he had heard the rumors.” But why did he think it was me?” I puzzled in my mind as I looked that him. “I am convinced you played a role in this.” He spoke again, and I simply stared at him before responding.

“Hand in what, Davis? You can’t just come up to my desk, snatch my notes and accused me falsely of something I know nothing about.” I said, maintaining my composure and appearing naive. I couldn’t let Davis know I had a hand in anything.

“It just has to be you!!” Davis pointed accusatorily at me, and Xavier, who had been observing all along, approached my desk to confront Davis.

“You can not just come here and accuse her of stuff we do not know about. If you are so certain she did it, why do not you tell us what she did? Xavier response to Davis annoyed him even further, but rest of the students in the class agreed with Xavier idea.

” What did she do?” Tell us.” I heard one of them say, but I guess he wasn’t ready to talk about what he said I did. He turned to face Xavier this time as he spoke.

” I knew you were up to something when you and Selene were talking and now there are rumors.” Davis responded, “What rumors?” I asked him, staring into his eyes for answers. I guess he was not sure if telling everyone in the class was the right thing to do as he hesitated to respond. “Tell the entire class about the rumours you heard.” I murmured, and he gazed at me fiercely. Tears welled up in his eyes. I could swear I have never seen him so furious before.

” She… emh. As I watched Davis, I pretended to be ignorant about what he wanted to say and he became speechless. ” I will deal with you for this.” He responded when he finally found his voice and walked out of the class angrily. Xavier walked behind him and returned to his desk.

“How could he think that i was behind these rumors?” I thought to myself. Taking a deep breath, I mumbled as I tried to hide my excitement. I needed an act to prove to everyone I didn’t know anything about it. I couldn’t have anyone suspecting that I had a hand in the rumors, Davis was talking about.

“Wait, Davis!” I pleaded, my voice trembling slightly. “I would never spread rumors about you or anyone else.” Xavier glanced at me, wondering how I could put on such an act, and when I grinned at him, he burst out with laughter. I grinned as I approached Xavier and whispered gently to him.
