Chapter 31- Protecting Delilah

" You…. You….", Amy stammered as she stared flabbergasted at the person who held her wrist.

"What was he doing here?" was the question on the girl's mind.

"Freddie, w-what are you doing? D-don't tell me you are protecting D-Delilah?" Amy stuttered.

"So what if I protect her!?" Fredrick said coldly, his expression was sunny either, the girls gasped.

"Do you have to be such a bully?" Fredrick added, his brows knitted, he looked extremely furious.

Delilah, Amy, and the girls were stunned. Who would have thought the desk mate she'd abandoned will be here, protecting her, though that wasn't the case.

Delilah was touched, but it didn't last because a side of her eyes caught a familiar figure, she turned her head and her eyes met with a beautiful pair of cold eyes which held an amount of loathe.

She was startled that her heart raced, "Ha…. Ha…. Harri…. Harrison Su", the eye contact only lasted a few seconds before he walked away, leaving a stunned Delilah behind.

Delilah was puzzled, she clearly saw a glint of resentment in those mesmerizing distant eyes of his, does he despise me? Well, he looked at her, didn't he? That shows he might know her, right? Delilah fell into contemplation again.

"Why do you have to protect her?" Amy's loud voice brought Delilah back to the current situation.

"Besides, I never bullied her!" Amy said self-righteously which made Delilah scoff.

Fredrick threw Amy's wrist away that she staggered backwards, she was fortunately caught by the girls behind her, or she would have fell disgracefully to the ground.

Fredrick turned to Delilah, "Are you alright", he asked worriedly.

"Mm!", Delilah nodded.

Suddenly, Fredrick held her by the wrist and drew her away from the scene leaving a lot of stunned girls and other students behind.

The other students at the scenes began to whisper to each other,

"What just happened?"

" Am I dreaming or did I just watch senior Fredrick protect and defend Delilah?"

" Why do I fell like I just watch a beautiful drama scene, this is remarkably better than those drama series on television!"

"Why can't I be the one senior Fredrick protect? Why do I have to be in the tenth grade? I also want to be in the eleventh grade like senior Fredrick"

"Exactly, what is so special about that Delilah girl? So what if she's the school flower and is by a grade older than us? She's no better than us"

"Delilah is prettier than the school beauty herself, don't be blinded by jealousy, it is not good for your health"

"Look at senior Amy's dumb face…. Haha, haha!"

"Where do you think Delilah and Fredrick are going?"

"Hey everyone! I just wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for your support and for diving into the world of Delilah and Harrison in 'Love Is But A Chance'.
