Chapter 36
One week later:
Hope resumed her college and even caught up with the lectures. However, one thing. she could not digest well was why most of the students again began giving her weird. glances.
As the lunch break started and she went to the canteen to have her meals, a foot trapped with hers. Hope fell to the floor along with the food plate and her outfit got ruined. She ended up injuring her knee in the process and looked around herself.
Hope could only see the laughing faces of the students at her. ‘Why are they treating me so badly?’ she thought as she placed the spoon over the food plate.
At that moment, a hand grasped her arm gently and pulled her up. “Are you alright, Hope?” Ryan asked. She didn’t anticipate him to help her out of all the students present in the canteen.
“Yeah, | am.” Hope pulled away her arm from his grip and walked away. After submitting her plate in the counter, Hope left the canteen and went straight to the washroom.
Hope placed her bag on the counter and ran the tap. She cleaned her top with the water, but stain didn’t leave.
“Hope, are you inside?” Ryan’s voice reverberated from outside. “I have a spare t-shirt with me. Why don’t you wear it?” he suggested.
Hope was hesitant to take the t-shirt from him. “Thank you, but I don’t need it,” she pronounced and closed the tap.
“Okay. Fine,” Ryan said and walked away.
“Just a few more days, then I'll be out of this college. | need to cr ck the interview of the Moore Group to become an intern trainee there,” Hope talked to herself while looking at the mirror. She put the strap of her bag and went outside.
To her surprise, Ryan w ad still awaiting her. “Natasha will be angry to see that you are helping me,” Hope said as she approached him,
“| broke up with her last week,” Ryan pronounced as he gazed at her top. “Do you wish to go home?” he then asked.
“Oh. That's sad,” Hope didn’t know what more to say on that. “I have two more classes to attend, then I'll go home. Also, we should not talk. You are an alpha while I’m an omega. Your ex might come to trouble me,” she proclaimed,
“Alright,” Ryan stated. “You should eat something,” he added.
“| think I'll now eat at home,” Hope replied.
“Why don’t we eat outside? There’s still an hour for your classes,” Ryan suggested. While dating Natasha, he was aware of the schedule, which was same for Hope.
“Outside? But how are we supposed to commute?” Hope did like his suggestion, but she felt that it would be a has sle to book an uber to go out.
“| have my car, Ryan asserted.
“Then, let's go,” Hope agree to go out with him for lunch. Although earlier, she felt that staying close to Ryan would not be a good idea for her. However, she didn’t wish to care about it anymore. Why she had to be the careful person all the time.
Shortly, they reached the nearest restaurant to their college. Ryan ordered burgers for both of them along with coke.
Hope began eating and enjoyed the taste of the burger. “This place is kind of packed. with our college students,” she opined. “Yeah,” Ryan agreed in response and took a sip of the coke. “Do you know a lot of things. happened when you were not here?” he suddenly brought her attention to him.
Hope shook her head.
*Karla dropped out of the college suddenly and | heard your family is no longer living here. Also, my elder brother told me that Daniel is kind of pissed at you,” Ryan informed her.
“Karla got the taste of her karma. I’m glad they left the city,” Hope stated. She didn’t care about any of them anymore. Now, her life was Logan. “Daniel is the one, who cheated on me with Karla. | cannot understand him at all,” she muttered and took another bite of the burger.
“Do you remember | warned you once to stay away from Daniel?” Ryan questioned her.
Hope thought for a moment. “Yeah. And | kind of ignored your words that time,” she remarked.
“How is Logan to you? Rumors say he isn’t a good person either,” Ryan stated.
“Logan is a gentleman. There is no man like him. I’ve suffered a lot, but with him, all my bad days came to an end,” Hope praised her husband. “My husband is one in billions,” she added with a smile.
Ryan was quite happy to learn that.
“Weren't you and Natasha together for three years?” Hope suddenly asked him. “Wasn't she your mate?” she was kind of inquisitive to know why Ryan suddenly asked her to come with him for lunch.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“Well, we fought the day she ruined your reception gown. | also witnessed it. So, Natasha didn’t like it. Also, we weren't the destined mates,” Ryan briefed her. He ate the fries and then again sipped the cold drink.
“Why did you even fight with her over my dress? You weren't supposed to do that,” Hope muttered.
“Well, | never liked the way she bullied others. Since your name is quite popular among the werewolves after you married Logan, Natasha didn’t like my words. She’s the one, who proposed for the break up,” Ryan explained to her.
“Ohh. Do you still love her?” Hope asked.
“Well, | do. | was the one, who proposed her. But | feel, | need to forget her,” Ryan asserted. “I tried reaching out to her, but she’s just blocked me,” he continued.
Hope could understand the feeling of being dumped by your love. But her feelings. ended the moment she saw Daniel cheating on her. “Ryan, did you try approaching her in the college?” She asked.
“| tried only one day. Natasha doesn’t wish to keep any relationship with me,” Ryan stated and sighed. “We shall finish off our meals,” he opined.
Soon, they finished the meals and returned to the college. Ryan thanked Hope for listening to him. “Anytime,” she said and stepped out of the car. Hope waved at him and headed to her class.
As she entered the lecture room, Emily stood in her way while crossing her both arms together. Hope furrowed her brows together and decided to go ahead, but Emily pushed her back.
“What's wrong with you?” Hope asked her.
“Shut up, you bit ch! How dare you seduce Ryan given the fact that you already have a boyfriend?” Emily shouted at her and glanced at Natasha.
“What did you say?” Hope was definitely infuriated to hear such a comment directed at her.
“Hope, just lower your voice,” Natasha told her. “Because of you, Ryan fought with me. Is this way you seduced Logan as well?” She blamed Hope for her break up with Ryan.
“Natasha, your ex saw how your destroyed my gown at my own reception. Also, think
