Chapter 201

“Whoa, you’re not kidding, are you?!” Luna stared at Freya in disbelief.

What kind of self-hatred drives someone to show up at school looking like a total trainwreck?

“Freya, I swear, if you weren’t Kieran Sutton’s fiancée, security would’ve stopped you at the entrance!”

“Really? I think I look fine.” Freya glanced at herself in the mirror.

Luna blurted out, “You look like… like one of those troubled teens from a TV show, you know, the type that ends up in juvie.”

“Then let it be. This is the only way I could think of to make Kieran hate me.”

“Did it work? Does he hate you now?”

“Kind of…”

Thinking back to Kieran’s reaction that morning, Freya felt it wasn’t exactly hate. No matter how hard she tried, Kieran just wasn’t that into her—definitely not hate, but far from love.

Freya hesitated. “Why can’t he just hate me? He used to be so good at it.”

“Because back then you were always chasing after him like a lost puppy; that’s why Mr. Sutton found you annoying.”

Hearing this, Freya paused. “So, you mean if I keep chasing him, Kieran will continue to dislike me?”

“I think it’s a solid plan!”

While Luna was sold on the plan, Freya saw some merit in it too. But she couldn’t stand the thought of being a lapdog to Kieran. It proved the saying: only a lapdog doesn’t realize they’re a lapdog.

Flattering Kieran? She couldn’t.

“By the way, Mr. Beckett said he wanted to see you.”

“Ronan Beckett? Why would he suddenly want to see me?”

Luna shook her head, clueless. A lecturer of Ronan’s caliber usually kept his distance from regular students. Only Freya had the privilege to interact with him.

“I’ll go see him then.”

Seeing Freya rising from her seat, Luna protested, “Class is about to start! Where do you think you’re going?”

“To see a teacher!” Freya replied, making it sound perfectly reasonable.

Meanwhile, Summit University’s campus was already buzzing with activity.

“Do you really think Caleb White will show up?”

“Of course! I got it from a reliable source!”

“God, I can’t believe I might actually see the movie star in person.”

Caleb had been making a name for himself overseas for years, but back home, he was already a celebrated figure. Blessed by the gods, Caleb was born into wealth and became a child star thanks to his striking looks. Not just a pretty face, he was talented in acting, singing, and dancing. He had been in a band before going solo, shooting six movies in a year and snagging a Best Actor award in no time. It was a success story straight out of fiction.

Just then, Freya dashed out of the academic building, making her way to another lecture hall, when suddenly she bumped into a figure clad in white.

“Sarry!” Freya barely muttered an apology, not even sparing the person a glance before she continued her sprint.
