Chapter 315 Keep your head down to live
In the eyes of people in New York, the fire that year was a big news.
The main reason was that New York was not a big city, and it would naturally arouse the attention of countless
people when a huge fire broke out all of a sudden and even started in a welfare home.
But it was only in New York..
As for the whole State of New York, it only stirred a little spark, let alone spread to Houston.
As a rich and beautiful girl who grew up in Houston, it was strange for Alexandra Flaherty to blurted out the
fire in New York.
“Miss Flaherty, you know about the fire at Sunshine Welfare Center?” Bertha asked in surprise.
Alexandra knew that Bertha came from a welfare house in New York, but Bertha remembered that she did not tell
her that there was a fire in that welfare house.
So Bertha felt really strange.
John narrowed his eyes and asked in a sharp tone, “What do you know?”
“How could you talk to my teacher like that, John?” Bertha gave him a fierce look.
‘Although you are the King of Horizon and have a noble status, Miss Flaherty is my teacher after all. Can’t you
respect her a little bit when you talk to her?’ Bertha thought.
Bertha glared at John.
John ignored her and stared at Alexandra.
At this time, Alexandra restrained the emotion that unconsciously fluctuated in her eyes and explained casually, “At
that time, I heard that the scenery in the State of New York was unique. I happened to visit there,
so I heard about it.”
“I see.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBertha nodded thoughtfully.
However, John was not that gullible.
When he first came to the Russell Family in New York, he clearly remembered that Ned had told him that it
was a martial artist who told him to set a fire in the welfare house.
The martial artist came from Houston.
According to Alexandra’s performance, there was no doubt that she must know something.
“You really just went to the State of New York for fun? I suppose you want something else, don’t you?” John said
meaningfully while staring at Alexandra.
“John!!”
Seeing that John was getting more and more impudent and disrespectful to her teacher, and even had the intention
to question her, Bertha stamped with anger and glared at him with her knitted eyebrows.
She was like an angry tigress.
John smiled bitterly.
It was hard for him to explain this kind of thing to Bertha. He could only turn it at Alexandra, hoping to find a
flaw in her.
A trace of coldness flashed across Alexandra’s youthful face. She took a step closer to John and was reluctant to
show weakness, then she said, “I know what you want to ask…”
The two were very close to each other. The smell of a mature woman in Alexandra went uncontrollably up
John’s nose.
But now, John had no interest at all.
He just wanted an answer!
The answer to the fire that turned on himself in the welfare house!
“don’t have the answer you want, but I have a word free for you. You shall leave Houston and keep your head
down to live.”
This was Alexandra’s answer.
“Keep my head down…”
Trying hard to suppress the mood fluctuation in his heart, John took a deep breath and said, “Miss Flaherty, thank
you for your reminder. I will definitely keep my head down and live on.”
Alexandra’s expression changed a little, but she didn’t say anything and turned back to her desk.
The conversation between the two and the sudden stalemate just now cheered Hugo up in an instant. He was sure
that something must happened between the two.
However, the conversation did not go on, and it was inconvenient for him to ask more.
At first, Bertha felt that John was too impolite, but now she realized that not only John was somehow different, but
also her teacher.
In Bertha’s impression, her teacher had always been an approachable woman. She had never spoken to a person
with a cold manner like today.
It was inconvenient for Hugo to ask, but Bertha had no scruples. She Immediately spoke out her doubts, “Miss
Flaherty, John, did you… Know each other before?”
She originally wanted to ask if they had a grudge before, but she changed her words and asked if they knew
each other before.
On the one hand, Alexandra was her mentor, on the other hand, John was an important brother, Bertha didn’t want
to see the two standing on the opposite side.
To be exact, Bertha didn’t even want to think about it.
“No!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever.
To Bertha’s surprise, the two of them spoke in unison and even answered in unison.
This made Bertha even more confused. She said, “Since you didn’t know each other before, why did you… behave
so strange just now?”
“Are we? Maybe it’s because of our two personalities. This is how I greet your sworn brother.” Alexandra said
with a smile.
John also rubbed Bertha’s head dotingly and said, “Bertha, don’t think too much. Your teacher and I just tested each
other. You know, when masters meet, they like to pretend to be profound to test each other.”
“What’s the result of the test?” Asked Bertha with her eyes wide open.
John took a look at Alexandra first, then he looked away. He said with a smile, “We are both satisfied with the
result of the test. We can make friends”
“Is that so?”
Bertha looked at Alexandra with doubt.
Alexandra nodded gently.
Holding her well developed chest, Bertha breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Then I’m relieved. I thought there was
some grudge when I saw you tit for tat just now…”
She was always careless. Hearing what the two said, she didn’t think too much. Suddenly, her eyes flashed
and she asked something.
“Miss Flaherty, since you and John have tested each other, have you found out that John is King… Hmm!”
Before Bertha could finish her words, her mouth was covered by John.
Alexandra asked with a strange look, “What King?”
“King hmm…”
With one hand covering Bertha’s mouth, John held her up and rushed out of the dean’s office.
