| sighed. | had been keeping all that frustration withinas | didn't have anyone to rant to.
Perhaps it was because of the ambient music, or the fragrance of her perfthat smelled nice, but | ended up
sharing all that had happened with her.
After listening to my sharing, she was floored. "I can't believe that such a thing happened. In that case, it really
isn't that suitable for you to reveal who you are.
"Shall | get my dad to give her a call?"
"No need for that. I'll just let this go."
As we neared my school, | requested her to stop the car. "I don't want people in school to see that a beauty gave
Although Joshua had been missing in action for a number of days, | still felt afraid.
Lucy burst out laughing. She took a glance atand said, "If both of us were to get together, | can't be sure
who would actually be sugaring who."
Oh?
Was she flirting with me?
Without waiting forto respond, she opened the door and got out of the car. Then, she opened the trunk and
handed a small box to me.

"This is a gift that | prepared for our first meeting. It's just simported fruits. Don't refuse. Take it back with
you and share it with your dorm mates."
Since it was just fruits, | accepted them from her.
"Thanks."
| had wanted to see her off, but to my surprise, she simply leaned back on her car and stared straight atafter
handing the fruits to me.
Feeling embarrassed being stared at like that, | scratched my head and said, "I'll be heading back to school now,
then."
Just as | got to the university entrance and was about to walk in, | saw Matthew, Benjamin, and Liam running out
hastily. They even almost bumped into me.
"What are all of you doing this late at night?"
"Will, your timing is impeccable. Calong, Charlotte was hurt and she's been hospitalized!"
Oh?
Without givingtto ask my questions, the three of them draggedinto a cab and rushed straight for
the hospital.
Along the way, | found out what had happened.
It turned out that Charlotte and Lucas went on a date after dinner.
Lucas liked to participate in underground racing competitions that were organized privately. In order to show off
to Charlotte, he brought her along specially to a competition tonight.
As a result, he got too excited and wasn't able to step on the brake in time, causing them to crash and end up in
the hospital.
| probed urgently, "Was the crash bad?"
She had been too unlucky, hadn't she? Bad things kept happening to her one after another.
However, she couldn't blit onthis time.
Matthew sighed. "Who knows? | only found out after Isabelle called me. But Will, Charlotte was truly in the wrong
today.
"After you left, the few of us gave her a dressing down."
| chuckled. "No need for that. I've let it go."
"This woman... How should | say this? Truth be told, she's not one of those snobbish women. That being said, she
has been attractive and the center of attention ever since she was young.
"She has always had men revolving around her, so she's a little biased against poor losers. She's quite polite
toward women who are poor, though."
Hah. So, | was a poor loser to her?

| took a quick look at Matthew. | really wanted to tell him to quit trying to clarify things. He was just making
things worse.
The moment | stepped into the hospital ward, | saw Charlotte leaning back against the headboard of her bed.
She had bandages wrapped around her head, and her lips were extremely swollen.
It looked like she had also injured her arm as her arm was in a sling.
Isabelle and Lina were present too. They were right by Charlotte's hospital bed, comforting her.
Matthew went up and placed a box of milk, which he had prepared earlier, onto the table.
It was at this moment that | noticed that even Benjamin and Liam had bought a fruit basket each. | didn't have
any tto prepare anything as | was forced to cover spontaneously. This thought didn't even cacross
my mind.
| took a glance at the box in my hands. | pondered over whether someone at Lucy's level would have given me
bad quality fruits just to go through the motions.
| figured not, so | put the box of fruits on the table too.
Charlotte didn't even take a look at the other items that the others had placed on the table.
To my surprise, she turned her head to examine the box from me.
After that, she lifted her head and stared at me. For sreason, she had a sarcastic tone in her voice. "What's
this?"
