Vera, with her heart pounding, looked at William's back silently. There was something she wanted to say."William," she called out.William, who was pedaling his bicycle, turned his head briefly."What happened, Vera?"Vera felt nervous, her cheeks were bright red. She felt like she was standing on a stage, with all eyes on her. "I'm sorry, I didn't want to say hello to you yesterday," she said.William was surprised for a moment, then smiled and nodded. "Oh, that was yesterday. It's okay, Vera. I'm relieved that you don't misunderstand anymore."Hearing these words, Vera felt relieved. The heaviness in her chest slowly began to subside. "So, what about Belinda's leg yesterday?"William thought for a moment before answering, "I don't think it's too serious." His words sounded rather nonchalant.Vera felt that something was not right. "They're messing with you again?" she asked in a voice full of worry. She knew that William was often the target of harassment by his friends.William wi
Belinda stared at Robert with fiery eyes, "Robert, you're an ass!" she exclaimed. This was already one day after Belinda had been humiliated by William for following Robert's useless advice. She couldn't take it anymore.Her face was bright red, a mixture of anger and shame echoing in her increasingly smoldering eyes. Her brows were furrowed, showing how deep her anger was. While her tight lips showed how much she was trying to contain her anger. She felt ashamed and humiliated, and it radiated clearly from every inch of her face.Robert grumbled that Belinda was bothering him. In fact, he had deliberately enjoyed some time alone in the small gazebo located at the end of the campus, near the artificial lake, hidden from the crowds.All hell broke loose when Belinda showed up. She spoke in a loud voice, attracting the attention of many people.Robert then responded indifferently. "What did I do wrong?" he asked, his brow furrowed in confusion.Belinda was annoyed. Her brows furrowed, h
Belinda really wants to earn money, but she has certain limitations in achieving that goal. She did not want to sacrifice her dignity or integrity for money.This Mr. Nameless' request was beyond reason, Belinda would not fulfill it.'Sorry, I can't,' Belinda replied.'Even, for your loyal fans?' asked Mr. Nameless further intervening on Belinda's behalf. 'I can send you more gifts.'Normally Belinda could put up with temptation, this time she seemed to falter. Mr. Nameless' offer of money had touched the deepest part of her dilemma. She felt tempted. It was only natural that she was a bit materialistic. Who doesn't need money?However, something was holding her back. It was as if a voice in her heart was screaming, reminding her of the values she had held dear. She didn't want to be belittled.Her expression changed, reflecting her inner turmoil. Her eyes sparkled when she imagined what she could do with the money, but then dimmed when she thought of what she might sacrifice."I'm so
Robert made a hard decision. He knew rough play was no longer working on William. So, instead of confronting William with violence, Robert chose to take a different path. He planned to pretend to make peace with William."William!" Robert met him after class was over.William looked at Robert with a suspicious look, but he didn't want any trouble if his reaction was excessive. "What's wrong?"Robert sighed. Although he didn't like it, he had to do this. "Vera was angry with me because of yesterday's rights. I was just joking."Joking?William couldn't believe that Robert still thought his vicious slander was a joke. He had set William up, making it seem like he had committed a crime against Belinda.Fortunately, William was now hardly under his grandfather's protection. With a little help, he was able to stop them and now the situation is reversed.Robert made Vera hate him even more and William was still able to hide his identity."Robert, I thought you were serious yesterday." Willi
The weekend arrived and William, Andy, Sebastian, Andrew, and a few other friends were getting ready to head out to watch the baseball game. They were quite excited, especially Sebastian who was going to meet Sarah. He had been preparing since last night.The boys were quite stylish today. Andy, wearing a light blue jean jacket with a plain white T-shirt and black jeans that fit well. He completed his look with white sneakers and a red baseball cap.Sebastian, who prefers to dress casually, chose a black T-shirt with the logo of his favorite baseball team and khaki shorts. He wore black sneakers and the same baseball cap as his t-shirt.Andrew, on the other hand, looked a little more formal. He wore a red and black flannel shirt, dark blue jeans, and brown boots. He also wore a baseball cap, but it was plain black.However, among all his friends, only William looked different. He was wearing a plain gray T-shirt, which was estimated to cost no more than $20. He was also wearing jeans
"I told you, sit down and calm down," he said in a low but firm voice. William directed his gaze towards Sebastian.Andrew, who was sitting next to Sebastian, still wasn't sure if this was going to go well. "But, Will... what if we get into trouble after this?"William was still being cool. "Andrew, we just need to sit back and enjoy the ride. There's nothing to be afraid of."Sebastian was still worried. "Will, I just ask that we don't do anything that could get us into trouble later," he said in a pleading tone.After a while of the road trip, they arrived at the Aurora Skyline. They arrived at the Aurora Skyline in the Golden Street Commercial business district. The driver had left without saying much, leaving only William and his friends standing in front of the restaurant. They gazed at the magnificent building standing tall amongst the other skyscrapers, with lights illuminating its white marble facade, creating a dazzling aura of luxury.Andrew and Sebastian were transfixed whe
Daniel couldn't answer either. At first he thought William was just pretending to have money when he came here. How could that poor student afford to book a place here? And, now that question was answered when they saw Sean Montgomerry with William.Now, they were also wondering themselves. Because, just imagine that a Daniel could be ignored and Sean preferred to greet William. It didn't make sense that they weren't people who had a close relationship. The boys were still wondering about William's familiarity with Sean.Only Vera was ignorant. She even supported William who eventually succeeded in humiliating Robert again. Oh, if it wasn't for Sarah who stubbornly invited her here, Vera would definitely not want to have anything to do with Robert.Now, Vera is laughing at Robert and the others because they can't even get a place as nice as William's. This room is an ordinary room. Meanwhile, the room used by William was much more elite with the concept of a pavilion that could direct
This week, some students held a fundraiser to donate to a charity that distributes food to the poor in their city. Vera happened to be an active participant in the event. She made cookies to sell to the students and all the profits would be donated.Vera stood at the front of the campus with a small table filled with her cookies. Her cheerful face attracts a lot of attention from students passing by. Robert and Jordan happened to be passing by and they were interested in buying some."Wow, they look delicious," Robert said, pointing at the chocolate chip cookies."Yes, they are indeed delicious," Vera replied rather curtly. She was forced to be friendly because she thought her cookies had to be bought so that Vera could donate to the FoodHope Foundation. "Buy more, I'm raising money to donate!"Jordan chuckled. Vera was very standoffish, but Robert still stubbornly approached her.Jordan held a pack of cookies, Merida wrapped her arms around her lover."Do you want some?" Jordan asked
