The Loser Ex-Wife Came Back Hot Chapter 18

This impassioned declaration sent the hallway of teenagers into a frenzy of cheers and applause.

Lindenwood Preparatory Academy was notoriously strict, with an

absolute zero-tolerance policy for student romances. The fact that the golden boy, who always ranked first, was officially dating the star student sent shockwaves through the campus.

Nova glanced back at Caleb and the blushing, Sylvie tucked neatly into his chest. She couldn’t help but scoff.

They really looked like the prince and Cinderella from a fairy tale.

But she wasn’t placing any bets on their happily ever after.

In her past life, Caleb had been obsessed with Sylvie for years, purely because she was the unreachable crush of his youth.

The things you can’t have when you’re young become the obsessions that haunt your life.

But once you finally get them, the fantasy shatters.

With the Langdon family teetering on the edge of bankruptcy, and Sylvie niding the fact that she was merely a chauffeur’s daughter, the obstacles they were about to face went far beyond a few little white lies. Their tragic ending was practically written in the stars.

Ignoring the spectacle, Nova turned on her heel and walked away.

After the final bell rang, Nova waited outside the Tier F classroom for Alaric. It was there that she witnessed Mrs. Langdon storming onto the campus like a hurricane.

Mrs. Langdon was so blinded by fury that she completely blew past Nova without noticing her.

A massive crowd of students had gathered outside the faculty office.

Even from the. Tier F hallway, Nova could hear the sharp, resounding crack of a stap echoing from inside.

“Caleb Langdon! If you have no shame, I do! Who gave you permission to date?!”

Mrs. Langdon’s shrill shrieks pierced the ears of everyone listening.

Everyone knew Caleb’s father had recently passed away, leaving Caleb as the sole heir to the Langdon empire. Half the girls in school had been dreaming of becoming his future wife.

But seeing the sheer psychotic rage of his mother, more than a few of them reconsidered.

Nova just rolled her eyes.

Caleb was Mrs. Langdon’s only hope now. If his little romance ruined his grades, the Langdon family was doomed.

Especially since, at this critical juncture, Caleb had chosen a girl who wasn’t Nova Donald.

Besides the Donald family, who else had the capital to save them?

‘Nova.”

Alaric’s deep, husky voice pulled her from her thoughts.

She turned to see him standing there in his crisp school uniform.

He was breathtaking.

His features were far more striking than Caleb’s-flawless skin and a bone structure that looked like a master sculptor’s finest work.

It was such a shame that his cold, aloof personality, combined with his status as the illegitimate outcast, made him an untouchable pariah.

Otherwise, there was no way Caleb would have ever held the title of the school’s golden boy.

“Let’s go. We’re heading to the pool.”

Nova took the lead, and Alaric fell into step behind her.

Since the school pool was closed after hours, leaving only the track open, Alaric suggested, “With your current weight, running isn’t very effective, and it’s going to destroy your knees. Swimming is a much better option.”

“Then… let’s go to my house. We have a pool.”

The sudden invitation caught Alaric completely off guard.

‘Don’t worry, I’ll pay for your gas,” Nova said, pressing a crisp twenty-dollar bill into his palm.

He stared at the money for a second before pushing it right back to her.

‘I already took your advance. I promised to help you train, I’m not charging you extra.”

Seeing his stubbornness, Nova didn’t push it.

As they walked out the main gates together, a sleek luxury car rolled up to the curb right in front of them.
