The students in the cafeteria were also looking at Connor in surprise.
They couldn’t understand why Connor would reject Natasha.
In their eyes, Natasha’s confession to Connor was already a blessing that Connor would never have.
But Connor rejected her. Wasn’t this obvious that he didn’t want to improve his social status?
“Let’s go back to our table and eat. Let’s not stand around!”
Connor didn’t want to stay here and have everyone look at him. He turned around and walked toward the dining area.
Natasha, Cindy, and the others followed Connor back to their seats and prepared to eat.
After Mandy saw Connor and the others leave, she stood rooted to the ground and suddenly shouted at Connor, “Connor, I know why you rejected Natasha. I finally understand what’s going on!”
After Connor heard Mandy’s words, he could not help but look up at Mandy.
“You still can’t let go of me, right? You’ve always wanted to get back together with me, right?” Mandy shouted proudly.
Connor looked at Mandy without saying anything.
“Since you didn’t say anything, you’ve tacitly agreed. You still can’t let go of me, so you asked Natasha to act with you. Your goal is to provoke and make me change my mind, right? But Connor, let me tell you, you should give up on this idea. I will never be with you again in this life. 1 will never fall in love with you. A poor loser like you is not worthy of me. You and Brandon are simply incomparable, you know?”
Mandy looked at Connor and continued to shout.
In her opinion, this was the only explanation for today’s incident.
Connor first found Natasha to put on an act to provoke him, then rejected Natasha in front of everyone, wanting to change his mind.
Otherwise, how could Connor reject a beautiful woman’s confession? How could Natasha possibly fancy Connor?
However, if everything that happened just now was Connor’s act to save her, everything made sense.
When May, Lily, and the others heard Mandy’s words, they felt that what she said made sense.
Connor looked at Mandy indifferently and sneered, “Are you crazy?”
“Connor, you don’t have to quibble anymore. Can’t I see through your little plot? You’ve put in a lot of effort for me. But I’m sorry, I won’t like a poor loser like you. You’d better not waste your energy on me!” Mandy replied proudly, then turned around and walked out of the restaurant.
Brandon, Lily, and the others also quickly followed Mandy out of the restaurant.
After Spencer saw Mandy leave, he seemed slightly puzzled. He asked Connor softly, “Connor, were you acting with Natasha just now?”
“Do you think I’m that bored?”
Natasha glared at Spencer and continued, “I really like Connor. Who would put on an act for that gold digger!”
Spencer looked at Natasha awkwardly and didn’t say anything.

Perhaps it was because Connor had rejected Natasha, so no one spoke during the meal. The atmosphere was a little awkward.
In less than twenty minutes, Connor and the others finished their meal.
Dominic took out his phone, looked at the time, and said, “It’s still early. Cindy, Natasha, are you two free this afternoon? There’s a new Marvel movie recently. Shall we go watch it together?”
“Sure, I’m free this afternoon!” Cindy quickly nodded.
“I have nothing to do in the afternoon…” Natasha replied. She came here today for Connor, so she naturally didn’t want to go back.
“Alright, let’s go watch a movie. The cinema is quite close to here…”
Dominic was very happy to see the two girls agree. He got up and prepared to leave.
“I’ll get the bill!” After Connor said this, he turned around and walked toward the cashier.
After Dominic saw that Connor would pay the bill, he wanted to go with Connor because he was worried that Connor did not have enough money.
But at this moment, his phone suddenly rang.
Dominic glanced at the number on the phone and realized that it was a call from his classmate, so he quickly picked up the phone and said with a smile, “Daniel, what’s up?”
“Dominic, are you with Connor and Spencer?” After Dominic picked up the phone, the other party asked anxiously.
“Yeah, why?” Dominic replied softly.
“Hurry up and get Connor and Spencer. The three of you should hurry back to class. Something big has happened in our class!”
“Something big happened? What’s the big deal?” Dominic asked, puzzled.
“There’s a thief in our class. All the students in the class are back. We’re only missing the three of you!”
“Was there a thief in our class?”
When Dominic heard this, he immediately frowned, and a trace of confusion flashed across his eyes.
“Alright, 1 won’t talk to you anymore! Come back quickly. Remember to bring Connor and Spencer, too. The whole class is all here!” Daniel said anxiously.
“Alright, 1 got it!”
Dominic felt that Daniel was not joking, so he quickly agreed softly and hung up the phone.
“Dominic, what’s wrong?” Cindy asked Dominic after he hung up the phone.
“Cindy Natasha, the two of you go to the cinema and wait for us. Something happened in our class, and we must go back now!” Dominic said slowly.
“What happened? If it’s not important, don’t go back. It wasn’t easy for Natasha and I to come here today…” Cindy didn’t seem to want Dominic and the other two to leave, so she pouted and said.
“It’s quite important. Wait for the three of us to settle it, and we’ll come and find you!” Dominic said helplessly.
“Alright then!” Cindy nodded gently.
“Let’s go!” Dominic said to Spencer, then turned around and left the restaurant.
“What’s wrong, bro?” When he returned, Connor had just paid the bill and saw Dominic and Spencer wanting to leave in a hurry.
“Connor, there seems to be a thief in our class. Daniel called me just now and said that all the students in the class have gone back. We’re the only ones left!” Dominic hurriedly explained.
“A thief?” After Connor heard Dominic’s words, doubt flashed in his eyes.
This morning, the students in the class were discussing this. Then, the thief appeared in the afternoon. Wasn’t this too much of a coincidence?
However, before Connor could think further, Dominic dragged Connor out of the restaurant.
“Connor, when we return to class later, those students will suspect you’re the thief. But don’t worry, Spencer and I can testify for you. You’ve been with the two of us all this time. There was no time for you to commit the crime!”
Previously, because Natasha and Cindy were present, Dominic did not say this out loud.
After leaving the restaurant, Dominic whispered to Connor.
“Yes, 1 can testify too!” Spencer nodded at Connor.
After Connor heard what the two said, he smiled and said nothing..
