[even his hands were shaking uncontrollably as he gritted his teeth in anger.
When Bernard was just about to pass him,
Tom suddenly walked forward and called out to Bernard with a stutter.
"Hey, Bernard, can we have a little talk in private?"Tom asked.
After hearing his name being called out Bernard immediately returned to reality, as he raised his to look at who had called him, the moment he did he realize the person seemed a bit familiar, after thinking for a while he remembered where he had seen him before making realization dawn on him since this person was Vic Timothy Storm friend, who had accused him of being a cheater during a spar in the weapon hall.
Bernard couldn't help but slightly look around him, he didn't know why Tom would be looking for him or even bother to call out his name like this in public since the dude wasn't at the place where he had fought both Greg and Tony, so he couldn't understand the reason he was looking for him.]
He raised his brows and looked at Tom, wondering what the dude was up to, was there going to be an ambush? It wasn't likely he thought simply because just the mere sight alone of Sophia would just scared them or anyone behind him shitless, except the second year was their backing. However, after looking around even extending his perception he realize there was no one around, making him wonder if it was that invisible dude that came personality.
When he thought about that the invisible second year student, he couldn't help but fell into deep thought for a moment there were two possibilities it was either the invisible second year was around, or Tom simply came on his own, what more if it was the second option then Tom simply had no chance against him, he could just run away or call out to Sophia for help it was the first option.
Bernard kept thinking for a while and coming up with different scenarios and plans in his mind, with several measures to take just in case of danger.
"Hey is everything okay?"Sophia suddenly stepped forward and looked at Tom, the cold look and sternness in her voice made Tom shrink his neck a little but he still kept looking at Bernard, awaiting his reply.
"Yeah am sure everything is okay Sophia, you two could go ahead and catch up with Ryan, I will be right back," Bernard said, and watched them walk away, even as they walked away Emelia seemed to have whispered something into Sophia's ear which made her turn her head to glare at Tom more icily
After they left, the two of them then began to head off as well to a place which wasn't that far off from the cafeteria, since it was breakfast time for everyone their classes hadn't started yet so the hallway was busy as students were rushing to the cafeteria. After they arrived at the place, Bernard made sure to be close to a window which he could easily jump over the moment he noticed something that was amiss, of course, he made it look so natural that even Tom or anyone else wouldn't notice a thing.
With that even if he was attacked by surprise he would just fly over immediately, and run out into the hall and screamed his lungs out for help while the rest would be settled by Sophia.
As he stood beside Tom, Bernard couldn't help but look at the dude's expression and quickly realize something off, which was the dude was just standing where he was with a clear look of nervousness as he quivered nonstop, each time he opened his mouth he would immediately close it back, it made him seem as if he was either contemplating or was struggling to get out whatever words he had in his mouth, eventually he seems to not be able to take it anymore and looked at him dead straight in the eyes.
"Bernard, do you know yesterday I saw Greg and Tony at the hospital."Tom suddenly said making him surprised."And guess what they told me something about you which I couldn't believe till this very moment."
Tom stood there still nervous and quivering but this time he was much more bolder and was still staring dead straight at him."They told me they had discovered something about you, and this is why I am here because I have been told what they discovered."
After hearing what he said, the two of them stood there just staring at each other. The other one had a calm look on his expression even after hearing all what Tom had just said, while Tom was still nervous and quivering uncontrollably. Even though Bernard had a calm look on his expression, his mind was basically running back and forth, he didn't know what Tom meant when he said both Greg and Tony told him something they had discovered about him, although he had a guess what it might be.
However, after thinking for a while Bernard still felt it was unlikely that Tony had really seen his face during when they were fighting, and even if he did it would at most be his eyes, which would not still give him away since his eyes had turned red then. However, when he looked at Tom he realize he didn't seem like he was lying, Bernard thought to himself, it was either they had already discovered the truth about him or it was just a mere speculation.
But Bernard wasn't going to let it go just like that, however, he still kept a calm expression as he began to contemplate whether to silence Tom right there and now. Just as he was contemplating whether or not to, Tom suddenly said something that made his heart skip and began to race.
"Bernard, I know your secret. You are the one behind those incidents."
