Unbelievable. You really are unbelievable." Caleb looked at her, a mixture of confusion and hurt clouding his features. He couldn't understand why she was suddenly so angry with him, and it weighed heavily on his mind as he searched for an explanation in her eyes. But Emily's gaze remained guarded, her emotions masked behind a veil of frustration and disappointment. "I know you've always had feelings for me," Emily began, her voice tinged with regret. "And I've said some truly awful things to you when I was with William. I could tell you were jealous, and I'm sorry for that. Despite everything, I've always had a good impression of you. Even though you're just an ordinary guy, and not wealthy, I've always seen you as a good person. You've been kind and supportive to me. If you had confessed your feelings, I might have even considered your proposal." She paused, her words hanging in the air before she continued, her tone turning colder. "But after finding out today that you'
As Caleb rode in the taxi to the college, he stared out of the window, his mind swirling with thoughts. The events of the day had left him feeling bewildered and disheartened. The accusation from Emily, believing he was aome sort of gigolo, and the looming possibility of Amanda spreading rumors had cast a shadow over him. He couldn't help but wonder how his life had taken such a sudden turn. On one hand, Emily's sudden mistrust had shaken him to the core. How could she so easily believe such baseless accusations? On the other hand, he dreaded the thought of facing Sophia. If Amanda were to relay her misconstrued version of events to Sophia, how would she react? Would she doubt him too? Despite knowing that nothing untoward had happened, the mere thought of Amanda's insinuations staining his reputation filled him with anxiety. Caleb couldn't shake off the feeling of impending doom as the taxi rolled on towards the college, each passing moment adding to his apprehension. As C
It hit him like a ton of bricks: they suspected him of being the culprit. The recent windfall from his lottery win had put him under a spotlight, casting doubt on his innocence. Caleb's eyes darted between his friends, a mix of irritation and hurt in his gaze as he disregarded the stares from the rest of the group. Focusing on Tommy and Jake, he analyzed their faces closely."Did you bring up the lottery earlier because you believed I might have been involved in the theft?" he inquired with a tinge of bitterness, his disappointment palpable in his voice.Caleb was struck by a wave of pain that cut deep into his heart. It was disheartening to see others hold such a low opinion of him, but what hurt the most was that his closest friends would accuse him of such a thing. Tommy's eyes widened in surprise, clearly taken aback by the accusation."Oh no, Caleb, that's not what we meant at all," Tommy quickly interjected, his voice filled with genuine concern."I wasn't doubting you, I was s

"Oh, just some minor details," he replied vaguely, his tone casual. "Nothing for you to worry about, Jess." When Carl remained tight-lipped despite Jessica's persistent prodding, she sighed in resignation and shrugged her shoulders. Resuming her focus on her notebook, she returned to her work with determined concentration. Carl couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt at keeping Jessica in the dark, but he knew he couldn't risk her intervening and thwarting his plans. The memory of Caleb's cruel accusation against Jessica in front of the entire class burned in his mind, igniting a fierce desire for revenge. He clenched his fists, his jaw set with determination. He would

Caleb asked, a note of concern creeping into his voice as he addressed her directly. Professor Roberts's gaze briefly flickered to Tommy and Jake before settling on Caleb. With a calm yet determined tone, she addressed him directly. "Caleb, would you mind coming with me for a moment?
