Vanya's POVThe next day, I headed to Wolfe as usual.As soon as I stepped onto the campus, I sensed that the looks of the people around me were pretty strange.Their eyes were filled with surprise, curiosity, and more so, an indescribable oddness.In the distance, a man's angry scolding could be heard, "Get away! What are you staring at?"I looked up to see Wilmot tearing something off the bulletin board.His movements were extremely rough, as if the item on the bulletin board was his enemy.I frowned, a hint of doubt rising in my heart.At that moment, he crumpled the paper in his hand viciously, his face as dark as a stormy sky, full of clouds, chilling to the bone.People around saw me approaching and quickly scattered like they were avoiding a deadly virus, retreating to a distance.Yet, they couldn't suppress their curiosity and kept stealing glances in the direction of Wilmot and me, as if trying to uncover

Vanya's POVI headed straight for the cafeteria, looking for an empty seat.I spotted a free seat at the back and planned to take it.As I approached the three of them, I only then noticed Melinda, who was deliberately keeping her head down to eat and trying to make herself as inconspicuous as possible.At that moment, Raven abruptly stood up, blocking my way."Excuse me, do we know each other?" I tried my best to make my voice sound gentle and soft, with a faint smile on my lips.However, there was no real amusement in my heart. I knew she meant trouble."A call girl like you, of course, I don't know you, but I bet everyone else does," Raven deliberately raised her voice, loud enough for those around us to hear clearly.The incident with the school bulletin board had already been the talk of the day, and almost half the school was aware of it.I didn't get angry right away. I was curious to see what else she might say.

"I've already checked. She's not a resident student. No one has seen her in the girls' dormitory," Fawn said, her usual reliable gossip at hand."Not living in the dormitory means she's a day student," Raven scoffed, a disdainful curl to her lip and a look of despise in her eyes. "It must be because she can't afford our school's dorms. They cost 20 grand a year, not something every family can handle. As a call girl, she's only fit for day schooling." With that, she folded her arms across her chest and raised her chin, as if she had seen through everything.Fawn didn't chime in this time.Melinda spoke up instead, "Raven, don't talk about her like that. Everyone has their difficulties. Maybe she's also left with no choice?" Her eyes flitted around as she spoke, avoiding Raven's gaze. Her foot scraped back and forth on the ground, and her fingers twisted together. Her heart pounded like a rabbit caught in her chest, fearful that Raven would detect the cracks in he

Melinda's POVVanya's expression grew stern, and Fawn, seeing the situation, rushed over to help me up from the ground. "Melinda! What are you doing? Get up and come with me."Fawn forcefully pulled me away, and I dared not meet Vanya's eyes.I feared seeing through my disguise in her sharp gaze.There, Fawn tugged at me, her face full of confusion as she asked, "Melinda, why did you just kneel to her?""I, I just... I was afraid she would cause trouble for you, so I wanted to talk to her privately," I feigned an extremely aggrieved look, hoping to dispel Fawn's doubts."Melinda, you... you're not deceiving us, are you?" Her eyes still held a trace of suspicion.I felt my face freeze for a moment, but quickly recovered.I said with a sense of grievance, "Fawn, how could I possibly deceive you? Why would you suddenly ask me that?"My heart was pounding with anxiety, terrified she would see through my ruse.Fawn sai

Vanya's POV"What did I do?" Derrick paused, clearly not following."About the principal's matter," I directly pointed out the key issue.Derrick thought for a moment and replied, "Probably Theodore did it.""Would Theodore bother with this kind of thing?" I was surprised, suddenly recalling the scene of Melinda and her two companions downstairs of my apartment that day.Upon reflection, it really could have been Theodore's doing.However, another question quickly replaced the doubt in my mind. "Are you so broke that you have to eat here?"This affordable cafeteria of Wolfe didn't seem like a place Derrick would frequent."Save where you can," Derrick responded.I inwardly scoffed, "What a joke!"Derrick kept his company's lights on all night.Who would believe him?I invited Derrick to sit and dine together, then asked, "What was Theodore's intention by involving the principal?""There's a sa
