My Accidental Husband Is My Revenge Partner - Chapter 276

Chapter 276: Arabella
Both Xander and Xavier stood in front of their school as girls both older and younger than them winked at them and tried to call them with cute high-pitched voices as if they were in a chirping competition with the birds that hung lazily on the nearby trees.

However, the two brothers ignored them as if they never existed.

They were still teenagers but were heavily gifted with such facial harmony even an adult male would start questioning his gender.

Their hair was as dark as the night—Xander’s styled in playful curls, while Xavier kept his straight and simple, without any embellishments. Both brothers had straight, pointed noses that seemed crafted with precision, as if the heavens had used a ruler. Their skin was smooth and flawless, almost as if it were shaped from the finest clay, leaving some girls feeling a twinge of envy at their clear complexions.

They simply glowed under the sun.

“Now, you can’t deny that those girls aren’t in love with you,” Xavier joked as they stepped into the school, waving at their classmates and even the ones they don’t recall seeing before a good morning since they were known as the popular twins in the school.

“What are you going to do after school today?” Xander asked, his hands in his pockets as they walked through the hallway.

Xavier chucked light at his questions. “We haven’t even had our first class yet and you’re already talking about what to do once classes are over?”

Xander merely shrugged. “Planning ahead.”

Xander’s gaze lingered on Xavier for a little while longer, several thoughts running in his mind. Thoughts he was starting to entertain and he couldn’t wait to act on them.

“Don’t tell me you’re sneaking out of the house to party with your friends?” Xavier asked, concern laced in his tone. “Can’t you see that those friends of yours are only talking to you because of our family background?”

“And so what? I’m paying them to be my friends and they’re doing their job quite well. So, why are you complaining?”

Xavier shook his head, clearly exasperated. “You’re going to get dad furious again tonight…”

“I don’t care…” He mumbled under his breath. It’s been two days since he overheard his father talking dirty about him. He’d thought of changing a new leaf, but since his father had already claimed him to be useless, he was going to leave it as that.

They spotted some of Xander’s friends sprinting toward them, flouting the school’s number one rule. At this elite institution for heirs to powerful families, propriety was expected. But the boys dashed forward with reckless abandon, laughing and ignoring the countless warnings they’d already brushed aside. If they broke the rules once more, they wouldn’t even bat an eye. The teachers might notice, but who would dare confront them? The consequences would be too much to handle, and everyone knew it.

“Xander, you’re finally here. Is the party still on?” Mack, one of Xander’s so-called friends asked.

“Of course, it’s still on! Have I ever canceled a party before?” Xander asked, slightly irritated by Mack’s question.

Meanwhile, Mack could only smile sheepishly as he took a couple of steps back in case Xander was offended.

“That’s great! Can’t wait,” Paul, the other guy chimed.

Xander glanced at Xavier and the latter immediately understood the silent question.

“You know I don’t like to party, Xander,” Xavier replied.

“Your loss.”

Xavier could only shrug as his worry for his brother could only deepen. They were still minors and weren’t allowed to do some things which very much included partying in a club with some fake ID as if they were already adults.

Between the twins, Xander had always been the outgoing, most extroverted one. They may be the most popular twins in the school, but Xander had more friends than Xavier could count on his fingers and toes all joined.

Xavier wasn’t completely introverted, but he had a couple of friends and despised partying since it was always louder than the raging sound of a volcano. He couldn’t help but wonder how they hadn’t lost their hearing ability yet for partying almost every day.

Xavier could only sigh when he heard Xander’s words. Talking him out of doing something completely unnecessary has started to become a problem.

Together, they walked toward their classes and waited for their teacher to arrive once it was time.

And just as expected, once their shadows graced the class, the girls were already squealing like they were pinched by some sharp object which caused them to do so. While the guys tried to invite them to one place or another.

And just like they did earlier, they ignored them like they never existed and silently prayed the teacher would come and divert the attention somewhere else.

Amid their waiting, Xavier decided to do some revision on his own while Xander could only snort by his side. But his gaze quickly tore from Xavier when his eyes caught someone by the corners of his eyes.

“Arabella? You’re just coming in now? What if the teacher had been here before you? He could have kicked you out of the class,” Xander said, the structure of his eyes turning from dark to pretty doe eyes as if he’d just seen his favorite candy.

“What are you saying, Xander? Have you forgotten that in this school, the teachers are not allowed to raise their hands on us, talk more kicking us out of the class? Do you know how I paid for these classes? They’re so expensive,” the girl called Arabella replied, flipping her hair to one side as she rolled her eyes. “Any teacher that dares to do that will kiss the back of my shoes,” she unknowingly threatened, earning a chuckle from Xander.

Xander knew all that, but he only wanted to find a way to exchange words with her even if it meant embarrassing himself a little.

A smile graced Xavier’s lips, realizing the only time Xander seemed normal was when he was talking to Arabella.
