Chapter 21
"Ah, I see," Tiffany exclaimed once the penny dropped.
Jenny furiously remarked, "I was sure that woman was up to no good. She's trying to steal someone else's boyfriend with her looks! How spiteful!"
"I think she's quite attractive though," Tiffany said. "Clara, you have to be careful with your boyfriend. What if he gets stolen away?"This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"No way," Jenny said. "Clara's boyfriend loves her so much, how could be possibly be stolen by someone like her?" "Thank you guys for your concern, but don't worry, my boyfriend and I won't have any problems," Clara smiled. "But I heard she's also coming to our school to study finance, and it's probably because of you," Tiffany said. "What?"" Clara was taken aback. Maeve is coming to Amenam University to study finance? How is that possible?
"It's true, I asked someone from the admissions office. She was also accompanied by the chancellor and vice-chancellor, Judging by that, she must come from a wealthy family, and is probably trying to use connections," Tiffany explained
Jenny was puzzled, "Our school has never lacked wealthy students. Who is she?"
Tiffany shook her head and continued, "I don't know, but I have never seen anyone personally welcomed by the chancellor and vice-chancellor. Her background must be extraordinary."

"The hospital told me that you've been discharged. What's going on?" Sergio was concerned.
"I was worried about missing classes, so I had to come back first," Clara explained.
"While studying is important, your health matters more. Stay and rest for the next couple of days. I'll have Larry arrange for your absence," Sergio said. Clara hesitated and asked, "Mr. Brooks, I heard that Maeve is also coming to Amenam University. Is that true?"
"Who told you that?" Sergio's tone turned cold at the mention of Marve

"It was... my y roommate. She saw a beautiful woman here for an exam. Since you received a call from wondered if she might be coming to our school too," Clara explained.
"She took it upon herself. Don't worry, I won't help her. Focus on your recovery instead," Sergio reassured her.
Clara breathed a sigh of relief. Maeve would definitely not be able to get into the school on her own. "Also, Mr. Brooks, there's one more thing "What is it?" S Serglo asked.
"The day after tomorrow is my birthday. Can I invite you to dinner?" Clara nervously awaited Sergio's response.
"Sure," Sergio answered.
Clara's face beamed with joy upon hearing Sergio's answer. Sergio had always celebrated her birthday for her in previous years. This year, she had thought it would be the same as before, but she had to make some preparations in advance because of Marve
