Chapter 612
Vera was coming up for Carl and was excited to stop him. But when she saw him coming out of Nicole’s room, her face changed
instantly. ‘Nicole is seducing Carl again!’ she thought, clenching her fingers, barely holding up a smile.” Carl!” she called out in a
sweet voice.
Carl heard someone calling him and looked back toward the staircase. When he saw Vera stop at the landing on the second
floor, an impatient look flashed in his eyes. “What?”
Vera was happy that Carl finally looked at her. She reservedly walked up to Carl and said shyly, “Carl, how is your preparation for
the robotic competition?”
Carl instinctively felt uncomfortable when Vera called him by his affectionate name. He looked coldly at Vera and said,
“Everything goes as planned. One more thing, call me Carlisle.”
He was not used to being called that name by someone not too close.
Vera’s face turned pale upon hearing his harsh reply. She looked at Carl and said stutteringly,” I-I’m sorry, Carlisle. I-I heard that
girl call you Carl yesterday, that’s why I....” She wanted to test if she could close the distance between the two of them, but Carl
had heartlessly rejected her.
Vera looked down in embarrassment, with a hint of jealousy in her eyes. She then looked up again at Carl with a pitiful
expression. “Please don’t you get mad at me, Carlisle.”
Carl looked at her coldly and did not know her intentions at all. “My relationship with Nicole isn’t something you can compare
with.”
Then he looked impatiently at the poser-like Vera and said indifferently, “I will go first if nothing else.” Looking at his indifferent
attitude and hearing his insults, Vera could no longer maintain her smile. Her desperation overpowered her shame, and she
immediately stood in his way when Carl turned away to leave.
“Carlisle, Aunt Merry has rejected my design, and there are only three days left before the robotic competition. Can you help
me?”
Carl looked at Vera; he did not remember that their relationship was close enough for him to help her. So he cocked an eyebrow
and said, “I’m sorry, but this is your own business, and I have my own things to be busy with. Good luck.” Without giving Vera
another chance, he turned around and went straight into his room.
Vera’s face contorted as Carl shut the door mercilessly. She clenched her fists and took a deep breath, barely maintaining her
expression without crashing. She then slowly turned and went downstairs with a proud expression on her face.
Those young girls who were not qualified to go up to the second floor were waiting anxiously on the first floor Seeing Vera slowly
walking down, they all gathered around her and asked what was going on.
Vera let out a sweet and reserved smile with a hint of pride on her face.
