Chapter 22
At 10:00 am., someone anonymously posted a photo in the group chat.
The first photo showed me standing on the street, waiting for Mr. Minogue. The next photo captured a black Mercedes pulling up in front of me.
The tinted window rolled down, revealing half of Mr. Minogue’s fare. Even from that glimpse, it was clear he was quite old.
The third, fourth, and fifth photos showed me getting into Mr. Minogue’s car as it drove away from St. Nicholas University.
Once the photos were posted, people started speculating about the nature of my relationship with Mr. Minogue and his identity.
For the most part, everyone was fairly cational, and the comments weren’t too harsh. But just as the discussion was getting heated, someone anonymously posted a photo of Mr. Minogue and me walking into a hotel, arm in arm. That photo was like a bomb going off, and everyone immediately jumped to the conclusion that I was being kept as a mistress.
While I was still scrolling through the group chat, Sharon came back. Seeing me sitting at my desk, she walked over and took my phone away.
“Evelyn, don’t look at this. These people don’t know what they’re talking about They’re just spouting nonsense. Ignore them.”
My hand was stiff from holding the phone for so long. I moved my fingers and managed a weak smile. “It’s okay, I—”
Before I could finish my sentence, the sound of the door opening cut me off. Lillian walked in with a smug grin.
“Oh, look who’s back. It’s the campus celebrity.” She sneered. “I’m curious How much does that old man pay you each month?”
“What are you babbling about?” Brenda asked, her expression cold as she stepped up behind Lillian, “You’re full of shit. Do you want me to slap you?”
“Go ahead and slap me then, Lillian said, stepping forward to confront Brenda. “I just don’t get it Why does everyone worship Evelyn so much?
“Could it be that she’s sharing the money she makes from prostitution with you?”
With a sharp slap, my hand struck Lillian’s face.
“I’m warning you,” I said, standing in front of her and watching coldly as she covered her cheek. “You’ll pay for saying things like that. How much money does your family have to spend on a lawyer for you? Since the beginning of the semester, I haven’t had any issues with anyone,
Thad been genuinely kind to my roommates, especially Likan. Despite never having done anything to provoke her, she had been hostile toward me from the moment she first saw
I wasn’t sure where this hostility came from, but I never held it against her
“Some people just love to mistake kindness for weakness. I’ve given in countless times, but it hasn’t taught her to be quiet. Instead, she’s only gotten bolder.”
“Evelyn! How dare you hit me Lillian exclaimed, attempting to slap me in return.
Sharon and Brenda quickly grabbed her, and for a moment, the three of us were caught in a scuffle.
Brenda yanked on Lillian’s hale. “What’s wrong with slapping you? You deserve it”
“A dog’s mouth can’t spit out hory. Eve only slapped you once, and you’re making such a fuss?ril beat the crap out of you!”
Brenda was skilled in both physical and verbal confrontations. I was so enraged that 1 jumped into the tight alongside her, disregarding everything else.
Sharon noticed that we had scratched Lillian’s face and quickly intervened. “Okay! That’s enough, Brenda Evelyn, stop ir
However, we ignored her and kept hitting Lillian. I’m not sure when it happened, but soon people from other dorms gathered to watch. Eventually, the counselst shed over, “Laceyote, stop this at oncel”
