I Am The One Chapter 20 - The Dean of the Faculty of Arts
It was 8:00 p.m. at a restaurant in a corner of Waterside City."Even after a year abroad, I can never forget the taste of this dish!"With a spoon in her mouth, Hannah couldn't stop praising the delicious ratatouille in front of her.Unlike her appearance earlier in the day, when she wore a short-sleeved red cocktail dress, she now had a more casual yet captivating look."Of course! This restaurant is the only place that serves ratatouille with this unique combination of vegetables and sauce! You won't find this combination anywhere else."In contrast to Hannah, Henry ate his meal calmly.Although ratatouille could be found in many places, even abroad, this restaurant had its own special recipe that set it apart."By the way, did you hear the news about the art department at Fairfield College?" Hannah asked.Fairfield College was one of the six constituent campuses of Waterside University.Just as there were six boroughs in Waterside, there were six constituent campuses for this univ
I Am The One Chapter 21 - The Reason Behind the Photos
Thirty minutes earlier.In a private room of a luxurious restaurant, three young girls sat at a long table meant for ten people."What did you do? How did these photos get out?"A beautiful girl in an oversized t-shirt placed the last photo in a small oven on the side of the table.There was still a small flame burning from the top of the stove, and it was filled with the remains of the recently burned photo paper.As she said this, she took a sip of the strong drink in her other hand."Didn't I tell you that none of my private photos were ever supposed to get out?" she said as she took another drink.These were photos taken on Hallie's seventeenth birthday, almost a year ago.At that time, after a family gathering, Anayah and Hattie convinced Hallie to have a wild party and encouraged her to drink various types of alcohol until she got drunk.Due to the excessive drinking, Hallie felt too hot and unconsciously began to remove her clothes.At that moment, she was wearing only a thin b
I Am The One Chapter 22 - The Price of Fame
Despite her very weak and immobile body, Hallie could still hear everything they said.At that moment, tears streamed uncontrollably from both corners of her eyes.It was the first time the cold-hearted girl had ever cried.She had trusted these two girls almost like her own sisters, but they were just friends to exploit her.Even worse, they wanted to sell her to a rich man, not just a year ago, but even now."You two, what have I done to you? Why are you so heartless to me?"Hallie asked them, tears streaming weakly from the corners of her eyes."You ask me, what is your fault? Are you blind?"Slap!While pulling Hallie's hair, Anayah slapped her hard on the cheek."Every time we go somewhere, all eyes are on you and all praise is directed at you!Do you think we are lifeless objects without feelings?If you hadn't stolen all the attention, praise, and admiration, we certainly wouldn't have taken revenge on you!""But it's too late now!"Slap!Hattie said as she also slapped Hallie
I Am The One Chapter 23 - Where Shall I Take You?
Henry took off his jacket and wrapped it around Hallie's lower body.Since the girl was very drunk, Henry had no choice but to carry her.As they left the restaurant and walked along the sidewalk, everyone who saw them couldn't help but comment."Wow, that young man is really romantic! He's carrying his drunk girlfriend!""It's very hard to find a responsible young man like him these days! That girl is so lucky! She must have done a million good deeds in her past life!""They look so compatible! One is handsome and the other is very beautiful! May heaven bless them with many offspring!"Not only Henry, but Hallie heard these comments as well.She wrapped her arms around Henry's neck and was in his embrace, feeling unexpectedly comfortable and peaceful, a feeling she had never experienced from anyone before."My dear, listen to what people are saying! They're all praising us! You should feel lucky to have a girl as beautiful as me!"Hallie's face was flushed from the alcohol, so she co
I Am The One Chapter 24 - You Must Know This Is Our Last Meeting!
"Oh, I almost forgot something!" Harriette said.Carrying a bag and placing it on the table next to Hallie, she continued, "I just went shopping. I don't know what kind of clothes you like, but I'm sure this will fit you!""Auntie, why are you doing this? You shouldn't go out of your way for me!" Hallie said with a regretful and grateful expression at the same time.The cold expression that had been on her face for so long vanished without a trace. What was visible was the face of a young girl, full of care and charm."What are you saying?" Harriette said, holding Hallie's cheek lovingly. "You helped us pay for my husband's medical expenses, which I'm sure were very expensive! If it weren't for that, I wouldn't be able to express my gratitude to you!"Harriette thought Hallie was Mr. Richardson's daughter. That's why, without Henry having to ask her, Harriette immediately treated Hallie very nicely.These words made Hallie furrow her brow. "I don't even know this family or have helped
I Am The One Chapter 25 - You Haven't Paid Yet!
Immediately after the group left, a message arrived on Henry's phone.Ding![All administrative matters have been taken care of; you will start working at Fairfield College next week!I can't help you anymore because I have to go back abroad.For the time being, if there's anything you need, please see Oliver! He will help you while I'm gone!]After reading the message, Henry went to Rainford College and packed all his belongings, mostly books and some antique items.Then he went to his apartment.Henry's apartment, which was actually Darcie's apartment, but Henry paid half of the monthly expenses, was on the third floor of a reasonably decent building.Henry climbed the stairs with a hint of uneasiness in his heart.They hadn't had a heart-to-heart since two days ago, when he'd caught the girl with another guy.Although Henry still harbored considerable anger and disappointment toward her, he wanted to end their relationship on good terms.After all, Darcie had been kind to him for t
I Am The One Chapter 26 - Magic Shadow
As soon as Henry entered the door of the apartment, he felt a negative aura pressing down on him, as if he were in a closed room filled with smoke.Not only did it feel unhealthy, but it also made it difficult for anyone inside to breathe.The next moment, Henry's ears caught the panicked voice of a young woman coming from one of the bedrooms."Mother, please wait a moment! I'll go buy the medicine," the young woman said as she placed a warm compress on Margret's forehead."Mia, hurry! I can't stand it anymore!""Wait, Mother! I'm leaving right now!"Before she left the room, Henry had entered.In front of him lay a woman who looked very old.With dark circles around her eyes, she looked ten or twenty years older than her actual age.When Henry had met her a month ago, she had a healthy and slightly plump body. But now, aside from the skin clinging to her body, there wasn't much fat left on her face and body."You...! Why are you here?" The young woman became very angry when she saw H
I Am The One Chapter 27 - The Drugstore
With a bottle in his hand, Henry hurried to a traditional medicine shop that the girl had pointed out."Follow the road next to this building for about 300 meters, then turn right to the end of the road! On the left side of the street you will see a shop with a strange appearance, that's the place!" Mia said earlier.Henry had turned to the right from the alley.As he was about to reach his destination, he half ran.About half a kilometer later, he saw an old shop on the left side of the street.At the top of the store was a sign that read "Traditional Medicine".As Henry opened the door, the sound of a bell rang above his head.The first thing he saw was a cash register filled with tightly sealed half-liter clay jars.There were 20 such jars in total.When he turned his head to the side, his eyes fell on wooden shelves filled with large glass jars.Inside these jars were plants, leaves, and roots of various kinds, soaked in liquid, each jar containing a different colored liquid than
