Chapter 237ย What? Evelina claiming she was a student at Orvin University?ย Lemira couldnโt help but snort with laughter, โEvelina, did you hit your head too hard last time? You think scoring zero on your tests makes you Orvin material?โย โTsk, knew you wouldnโt believe it. Orvin Universityโs Business School doesnโt just focus on grades, you know. Asher personally pulled some strings for me. Jealous much?โย Evelina was still seething over the surveillance footage incident last time and found no where to vent her anger.ย Luckily, because playing the sympathetic figure had softened Asherโs heart enough to secure her a spot at Orvin Universityโs Business School.ย Lemira got the gist and her tone dripped with sarcasm, โOh, I get it. Your soโcalled Business School is just a diploma mill.โย if zero scores would get anyone into Orvin University! Even if Asher had connections, it wouldnโt stretch that far!ย โย Evelina was fuming, her face turning a shade of beetred, but without a comeback โ her confidence was shot.ย โWhere does this country bumpkin get off calling Orvin Universityโs Business School a diploma mill?โย Lemira caught a whiff of overpowering perfume before seeing a girl, decked out in designer gear and with an unmistakable air of cosmetic enhancement, approaching.ย Susanna Sinclair looked down on Lemira, โCountry bumpkin, donโt embarrass yourself if you donโt know any better. You, with your grades, might have squeezed into Orvin, but youโll always just be working for someone else.ย Our Business School breeds leaders, the ones youโll be calling boss someday!โย Lemira had never heard of such ridiculous remarks. Was flaunting wealth an Orvin thing?ย She noticed the crowd around them bowed their heads, daring not speak. Clearly, this student from the Business School was not to beย messed with.ย Evelina recognized the girl immediately โ Ms. Sinclair.ย After all, there were only a handful of freshmen, and she had researched her classmates thoroughly.ย Evelina hurriedly told Lemira, โYou better apologize now, stop making a scene.โย Lemiraโs expression was impassive, โI didnโt say anything wrong.โย โOh, so defiant, country bumpkin. If you donโt get on your knees and apologize right now, I promise youโll regret your next four years at university!โย Lemira, having faced death before, was unfazed by the threat. She grabbed her documents, pulled her suitcase, and left without giving Susanna another glance.ย Susanna, used to getting her way, had never been treated like that. Livid, she turned to Evelina, โWhatโs her name?โย โSheโs Lemira. We went to the same high school. Sheโs always had a bad rep back then, even got into early romance with a school doctor and moved out to live with him!โย โTsk, a little tramp dares to cross me? Sheโs done for!โย Susanna felt humiliated like never before.ย Her sister was engaged to the Everhart heir, the top family at Orvin. Who wouldnโt respect her? A girl from the sticks thinking she could look down on the Business School?ย Evelina watched Lemiraโs retreating figure with a gloating smirk. Lemira had made an enemy of a wealthy heiress on her first day. Her future time wouldnโt be that easy.ย Lemira dragged her suitcase to the dorm building.ย Pushing open the door to her room, with its bunk bed and desk setup, she chose a spot and began to make her bed.ย Soon, two other students arrived, their parents in tow, laden with belongings. Lemira, alone and with minimal luggage, looked out of place.ย A parent approached her, โAre you here by yourself? On such an important day, arenโt your parents coming?โย Lemira replied blandly, โMy parents died in a car accident when I was young.โย The parentโs face fell into an awkward expression at her words, โOh, Iโm sorry to hear that, dear. DโDo you need any help with your things? You donโt seem to have brought enough stuff.โย 1/1ย
