Gasps ripped through the crowd of students. They couldn't believe their eyes that it was Robert who had brought such an exotic car onto the school premises. How was that even possible, since they all knew he was broke - not just broke, but one of the poorest guys on campus?The whole place went silent, and only murmurs could be heard from afar, but Robert didn't care. He walked proudly out of the car, and instead of slamming the car door, he pressed the remote in his car, and the door gracefully closed down, making the students marvel at such luxury."Am I really dreaming?" one of the students muttered. "Like, Robert Edward has a fucking Rolls Royce?!""Damn, his car is really sleek. I mean, look at that car - it looks almost the same as that of Owen," another student whistled in awe."Is this a prank? Did he rent this for a music video or something?" Another student looked around in disbelief. "Did you all believe that Robert is the real owner of the car?""I mean, I am richer than h
Robert's face fell, his eyes widening in disbelief and hurt. He felt a sting from Jacob's words, like a bee had pierced his skin. His mind raced with disappointment and frustration. Did they really think he had a whole lot of time to be playing catch up with Owen? After all these years they had known him and seen how tightly he had always scheduled his time, even when he was working, and how he spent most of his free days in the school library instead of engaging in time-consuming activities - seeing them think so low of him made him sick to his stomach. Apparently, he had made them the studious bookworms they were today. Each one of them wanted to rival each other, solely focused on outperforming the others academically through friendly competition. They were really comparing him to Owen, whose life is a fallacy.Robert sighed. "How could you think that of me?" Robert's voice was laced with disappointment, his tone barely above a whisper. "Do you really think I'm so petty, so shall
Gasps ripped through the crowd of students as they couldn't believe their eyes that it was Robert who had brought such an exotic car onto the school premises. How was that even possible, since they all knew that he was broke? Lily, on the other hand, was equally shocked to see Luca ride into the school compounds with such an exotic car."Isn't that Owen?" one of them exclaimed excitedly."Oh, it is him! That's the same exact one he just bought, I'm sure of it!" the girl said. "I just saw Olivia in here. Where is she? She can also confirm that it's her boyfriend's car.""Oh, yes, that is Olivia!" another person pointed at Olivia, who hadn't seen the whole chaos happening outside. She was seated with her friends, engaged in normal campus gossips, when one person tapped her shoulder to get her attention."Hey, Olivia, isn't that Owen coming in?" she pointed outside, and Olivia quickly followed her hands, only to see a Rolls-Royce parking in front of the lecture hall. She was initially con
Apparently, Ben has suggested that they post a photo of Robert with his new car in the school group and add an eye-catching caption for it. He also suggested adding Robert's license plate number so it can be visible. After Ben had posted it, he made sure Jacob also posted it, congratulating Robert on his new car. Having two to three posts up would gain more traction faster.But Ben didn't stop there. He went as far as going to Olivia's post of her and Owen in front of the Rolls Royce and debunked the rumors that it was Owen's car. For the next few minutes, the post began to blow up, and six consecutive comments dropped: "What do you mean this isn't Owen's new car, but that of Robert? I mean the poor Robert we all know?! How is that even possible?"When Ben saw the first comment, his face dissolved into a frown, but he quickly explained and asked the commenter to check the license plate numbers."Wait a minute, did you say it isn't that of Owen? Hahahaha, I just knew they were living a
"You really think we don't know, right?" Ben laughed. "You fake bitch, and you come up in our face to act like an IT babe."Olivia's eyes widened in disbelief. "What are you talking about? You're just drunk or high or something!"Ben sneered. "Drunk or high? You think we're just hallucinating? We have evidence, Olivia. We know you and Owen live such a fake life and act rich!"Olivia's face turned red with indignation. "Evidence? What evidence? You're just making this up! What the fuck is wrong with you silly boys? How do you come to school in the morning and have a bad bitch on your mind?"She hissed. "Well I know your friend haven't healed and moved on from me.""Healed?" Ben laughed. "No one wants a fake ass bitch like you except some ugly boys like Owen."Jacob chuckled. "Make it up? You really think we're that stupid? We have screenshots, Olivia. We are just waiting for the right time and it'll blow up in your face. You will feel the same embarrassment you gave Rob in front of the
The world seemed to have stopped when they told Olivia to check the school group. She didn't understand what was happening, so she was confused. Meanwhile, Robert and his friends who knew what was about to happen felt a bubble of positive energy down in their stomachs, but they didn't show it.Olivia's eyes narrowed, her brow furrowed in confusion. "What are you talking about, Emily? What's going on in the school group?"Emily's eyes were wide with excitement, her voice urgent. "Just check it, Liv! You won't believe what's happening! I can't tell you here now."Ben and Robert exchanged a curious glance, their interest piqued. Miss Lily's expression remained stern, but her eyes hinted at a spark of curiosity. She badly wanted to know what it was they wanted to show Olivia, but the time for her lectures was slipping away.Olivia's confusion turned to frustration. "Fine, I'll check it when I get inside. I don't have my phone with me right now," she said after searching her pockets and no
"Oh my god. Olivia, that car isn't really Owen's, is it?" one of the students close to her said.It was loud and clear, but she pretended not to hear what was said. She couldn't even bring herself to raise her head to the class; everyone was gawking at her. Even her friends who were close to her couldn't stop looking at her. In reality, they couldn't believe they have been worshipping a fake "it" bad bitch!They saw her as the most beautiful and classiest girl on campus, and it all got to a whole different level when she started dating Owen. The whole student body kept stealing glances at her, and it made Robert and his friends happy. Everyone in the school group was watching the comments the post was getting, including Olivia."You should be ashamed of yourself! Broke bad campus bitch, posing up in your ex-boyfriend's car? This must be some pathetic law joke!""Is this real? I mean, Olivia, the same one who thinks she's better than everyone out there?""I just know she's so fake. How
When he left, Lily couldn't help but start to think that everything was not going well at his home. His whole smile had vanished after he took that call, and he could tell it wasn't something pleasant in the least, but she just hoped he was going to be alright.Robert rushed to where his Rolls was parked. He wanted to tell his friends that he had an emergency, but seeing that they were so exhausted from the class, their bickering was loud enough, and they didn't even know when he zoomed off.As he hit the highways, he couldn't stop thinking of the reason why Simon called him. This was actually the first time Simon was calling him when he was in school. It must be something very serious for him to have to call and ask him to race back home. As he sped back home, his mind began to play a midnight game on him.Was it his mother who something happened to? He shoved off the thoughts and simply gulped. That can't be right? He checked his phone, just in case there was another call from Simon
