Hearing that Eli had finished reviewing and could help her make up for her lessons, Kara only had one thought. How could he, such an excellent student, "bully" her like this?. It was like a race. She hadn't even started, but Eli had run ten thousand meters. This was the difference between an excellent student and her. "Never mind. I'm stupid. If you help me, it will waste your time. You are the hope of our school. You should try to become the top Science student this year. "It's not a waste of time. Teaching you is also a kind of review for me. I'm happy to be able to help my classmate. Eli wanted to protect her in his way. If he could be her tutor, he would have more time to stay with her. "I'm not in the same class as you. It's inconvenient. And I have to go home after school every day. My families will be worried if I'm late. " Kara racked her wits to refuse. She had no hope of getting into a college. Why should she let him waste his time?. After the college entrance exam, if she still wanted to study, she would just study for another year. That was OK. But she would feel guilty if she owed him a favor by letting him teaching her. "It won't take much time. We'll only spend half an hour at noon every day. Kara, don't give up on yourself. As long as you work hard, you can do it. " Eli tried to encourage her. Kara looked at him in confusion. His amber eyes were so clear. "I think my future is bright, but there is no way to get there. Eli laughed. Seeing her pouting angrily, he coughed and suppressed his smile. "Kara, you're so cute. That's a deal!". What did she say?. "Kara!". Kara still wanted to refuse, but she suddenly heard James's freezing voice from behind. She was stunned. She suddenly turned around and saw his car at the school gate. The window rolled down, revealing the handsome face of the man, which was gloomy and cold. He pursed his lips, presenting a gloomy profile. His gaze was also sinister and terrifying. Didn't he go on a business trip?

"Uncle James, why are you here?" She didn't realize why the man was angry. Hearing Kara call him "Uncle James", Eli followed her gaze and saw a man in the car. He cocked his eyebrows in surprise. "James? How could it be you?". Did Eli and James know each other?. Kara looked at Eli in surprise, and she turned to James. If James knew Eli, then there woul d be an explanation. "Uncle James, the classmate who gave me th e notebook was Eli. He's just my classmate. I d on't have puppy love!" She hurriedly explained. Eli w as a littl e awkward. James's sharp gaze swept across Eli. Althoug h Eli was an excellent student, he was still too y oung. James could easily see through his thoughts. H e like d Kara. Kara was just too simpleminded to see through him. "Get i n the car!" He ordered. "Ok ay. After Kara explained, she felt that James wa s even much angrier. She was a little scared, and her hands were shaking when she opened the door. "James, I haven't seen you for a lo ng time. So you're the one taking care o f Kara. " Eli greeted James with a smile. Looking at Kara's frightened expression, he was worried and couldn't help but say, "James, I want to go to your vil la today. It's been a long time since we've eaten together. "Yo u'd bett er not!" . James's cold gaze swept over him and then he turned away. "Nolan , are you waiting for me to drive?" . Hearing his mocke ry, Nolan felt that hi s heart skipped a beat. Wasn't h e in a good m ood just now? . 'You are looking forward to seeing Kara. How can y ou be angry so quickly? Mr. James, have you ever cared about your subordinate?' Nolan complained in his heart. El i was c onfused. Eli looked at the car as it drove away. Di d he provoke his cousin? . In the car, James's expression was cold. Kara lowered her h ead and pinched her right hand with her left hand. She even made many red marks on her thumb, but she did not notice them at all. "What's wrong with you? Do you li ke self-mutilation?" . James stared at her small hand. He endured for a long ti me, but in the end, he gave up. He gripped her hand and looked at the wound on her th umb. He held her hand tightly. Seeing that her hand was held by his warm palm, Kara bit her li ps and didn't know what this meant. "Uncle James, I swear that I really d on't have puppy love!"

She solemnly raised her three fingers and swore. She looked ext remely serious, which was adorable. James didn't sa y anything. James remembered that the excuse for her returning home late a few days ago was to go to her classmate's house to do her homework. Eli glan ced at her coldly and ignored her. His attitude was extremely terrifying. Kara was afraid that he would give her s ilent treatment. In recent days, she had night mares and was afraid that he would ignore her. With a blink of an eye, her e yes turned moist. When they returned to the villa, Libby br ought a bowl of medicine. Just as James was abo ut to speak, Kara walked over to Libby angrily. It was like provoking . She took the medicine bow l and drank it in one gulp. Her face soon wrinkle d. She looked so stupid tha t James almost laughed out. She put down the bowl and looked up at him. Seeing that he was still as col d as ice, she was extremely disappointed. During dinne r, they still had no communication. Libby noticed that there was something wrong between them, but she didn't know what had happened. She had to turn to look out the window and muttered, "It looks like the weather is going to change. After dinner, they returned to their own rooms. Kara returned to her room and thought to herself angrily. Before she was eighteen years old, as long as he didn't personally drive her out, she would live here! . In the middle of the night, lig htning flashed across the sky as if it was about to split the sky apart. Kara didn't notice the time when doing her homework. It was already ve ry late when she finished the homework. After a shower, she was about to cha nge into her pajamas when she heard thunder. Her face turned pale from fear. She swallowed and forced herself to calm down. The fingers pinching her pajamas trembled. As soon as she stretched out to put on her trousers, she was shrunk into a ball by the thunder. Ther e was lou d thunder! . No! . Kara was afraid of thunder. The thunder in early s ummer was too frightening. She covered her ears and tri ed to hide somewhere, but it couldn't relieve her fear. Another thunder rang out. She jumped up, wrapped herself in a bl anket, and knocked on James's door. Hearing the knock on the door, James opened the door and saw a figure rushing in. A girl threw herself into his arms and he had to take two steps back. Instinctively, he held her. Looking down at Kara, James saw her fair skin and noticed that she had just t aken a shower and was wrapped in a quilt. His eyes tu rned red. "Uncl e James, I 'm scared. Kara was afraid of being rejected by him, so she hugged his waist tightly. Only then did she realize that James had also ju st taken a bath and that there was only a towel around his waist
