Price Of Her Silence

"Time is up!" the boy snatched the book from Nora and stared into her eyes with a smirk.

"Now solve it for me from the start to the end and explain its main points." His last line was vicious because the book had not explained the main points. It had written reference page numbers for explanation. 

Nora's lips curled. She took out her notebook from her bag. But instead of starting to explain, she kept staring at his face. It made him uneasy. It felt like she could see through his trick. But there was no way she had noticed so much in just two minutes.

"What? Do not tell me that you are begging me to renege the bet?" he smirked. He was thinking too much about her expressions. She was not writing. Did it not prove that she did not know what to write?

"No, I am making sure that you pay for it." she extended her hands and Emma rolled her eyes. But passed the money to Nora.
