Sophie arrived at the university in the aftemoon to register, dressed simply in casual clothes, and she


    instantly turned heads as she walked through the campus.


    “Isn’t she gorgeous? Is she a freshman?”


    “Have you seen her before? Is she really from our school?”


    ??? ? ? ? ? ? ??


    “I think I saw her during the entrance exams. She must be a new student, right?”


    People whispered and nced in Sophie’s direction.


    A rather handsome guy approached her and asked, “Hey, are you a new student here?”


    Sophie nodded, “Sort of.”


    “Which dorm building are you in? Need me to walk you there?”


    Im not staying in the dorms”

    “Then how about I take you to the registration? I’m a junior, and freshmen usually register at Building


    A.”


    “No, I’m headed to Liberty Hall.”


    “Liberty Hall?” The guy was momentarily taken aback.


    Sophie confirmed, “Yes, I’m registering at Liberty Hall.”


    “But Liberty Hall is. Wasn’t it the ce for graduate registrations?


    The guy looked Sophie up and down.


    Sophie appeared to be just over twenty, not old at all. Eastwood College’s graduate programs required


    years of preparation which seemed impossible for someone her age. He couldn’t possiblypare her


    to the typically older graduate students.


    “Liberty Hall is just over there, I see it now. Thanks anyway,” Sophie said with a smile, then turned and


    walked into the academic building.


    Meanwhile, Nichole had been staying in the dorms for the past few days, and James hadn’t shown any


    signs of wanting to see her, not even a phone call. Krystal and Tina both sensed something was off.


    Krystal couldn’t help but ask, “Nichole, what about your boyfriend? Why hasn’t he contacted you at all?”


    “Yeah, you guys didn’t break up over that other woman, did you?” Tina added.


    Nichole forced a smile and replied, “He’s just on a business trip. Don’t overthink it.”


    “Oh my god, is this the same woman you mentionedst time who likes your boyfriend?” another


    roommate suddenly asked, showing a blurry side profile photo of Sophie on her phone from the


    university’s confession page.


    “Seriously, why is she back at the university?” Krystalined. “She’s like a bad penny, probably


    here to cause trouble for Nichole again.”


    Nichole’s heart pounded with anxiety. Today was the freshman registration day. How could Sophie


    possibly be at the university? Could it be that Sophie had actually been admitted as a graduate student


    at Eastwood College?


    Impossible! The entrance exam was incredibly tough, and Sophie, a finance–uneducated heiress,


    couldn’t possibly have passed.


    “No way, she registered at Liberty Hall today. Seems like she’s a new graduate student in the finance


    department. Not sure about her background, but she’s so pretty, and several guys have already


    confessed on the confession page asking for her contact info.” “Slut!” Krystal always had a low


    tolerance for such women.


    Tina was also taken aback, “Really? She didn’t get in through pulling strings, did she?”


    “You know how it is at our university. With her looks, she probably got in through some unwritten rules,


    Ta said dismissively. Why would someone as attractive as her need to study finance at Eastwood


    College?
