Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 609

Chapter 609 An Accident

It was one afternoon when Yelena bought roasted pork trotters after school and was enjoying it when she suddenly noticed one of her classmates being bullied by a burly man on the road.

Without any hesitation, she sprang into action and rushed over to help. She grabbed the pork trotter and threw it at the man. Unfortunately, it hit Federick in the face.

The pork trotter was quite big as she had only taken a few bites out of it before it knocked Federick out.

However, the commotion was enough to scare off the bully who quickly fled the scene. In a way, Yelena had indirectly saved Federick.

At the school's award ceremony, Yelena and Federick stood on stage with contrasting expressions. Federick had his face bandaged up while Yelena looked somewhat embarrassed.

He was only receiving the award because of Yelena's heroic actions, despite the fact that she was the one who accidentally hit him in the face with the pork trotters and scared away the bully.

As the saying went, 'No good deed goes unpunished.' In this case, her kind gesture ended up being misunderstood, and the entire school learned of Federick's unfortunate encounter with the pork trotter.

On the stage, Yelena nervously asked, "Are you okay?"

"Still alive. Thanks for asking," he replied in irritation.

She knew that he wasn't seriously injured, but she still felt guilty about the whole incident.

Federick's good looks made him popular at school, and after the incident, some girls approached Yelena and accused her of ruining his face. However, they vanished as quickly as they had come, and she was never bothered again.

Thinking that these girls had a change of heart, she let the matter slide. "I'll cover all your medical expenses," she told Federick. Yelena was known as the wealthy heiress of the Sullivans and had more than enough money to spare, while Federick was often seen wearing simple white shirts, leading people to assume that he came from a poor family.

Despite her mischievous behavior, Yelena still knew how to make things right.

"That's not necessary."

She became anxious and raised her voice. "Why not? Your face is ruined. I am responsible for you."

At that moment, the school leader had just finished his speech and was about to invite the heroic individual to speak.

However, as soon as the microphone was turned, her words were heard. "I am responsible for you."

Instantly, the entire auditorium was in an uproar.

Yelena turned around embarrassedly and saw Federick's red face turning a shade deeper.

Some people even started whistling flirtatiously, and one person shouted for them to get together.

The principal quickly moved the microphone and cleared his throat to restore order.

"Quiet!"

The students fell silent and Yelena made a brief statement. She clearly heard people whispering and even making impolite laughter while she was speaking.

As a usually calm person, Federick almost dropped the microphone when it was his turn.

"I don't have much to say. This was just an accident."

However, no one dared to ridicule him because of his status.

After this incident, rumors about the relationship between the two began to spread throughout the school.
