As the finals approached, everyone in the dorm was cramming.


    Brenda couldn''t take it anymore after an hour of studying. She shut her book on the desk and slumped back in her chair, wailing, "Guys, let''s take a break. The war went on for eight years, and there''s no way we can finish its history in just an hour." Herdramatic outburst had me and Sharonughing. I put down my book and stretched my neck


    "I think you''re right. Let''s rest a bit. These books aren''t going anywhere whether we cram now orter. We''ll get there as long as we try."


    "So it''s the trying that matters, not whether you actually seed?" Sharon shot us a teasing look as she stood up to make us some instant coffee.


    Brenda and I exchanged a nce and waved at her. "No, no, no, we''re just making the process a little more enjoyable."


    "Okay," Sharon said, grabbing her phone. "How about I spice up this process with a buttet?"


    It was rare to see Sharon join in our yful banter since she was usually the most serious among us. Brenda and I eagerly nodded. "Deal!"


    "Can I choose the ce?"


    "How about Wholesome Buttet?"


    "Chez Buffet isn''t too bad either."


    As Brenda and I debated where to go, Sharon interrupted us by forwarding a message to our group chat. "Take a look at this."


    We opened the group chat and saw that it was an announcement from our faculty. The student who ranked first in the year would stand a chance to work at the world-renowned fashionpany, Style Mania.


    Style Mania had been a trendsetting force in the fashion world since the 1980s. Over the decades, thepany had brought together top designers and established global brands specializing in jewelry, cosmetics, and fashion.


    Fashion was their most notable aspect, and many aspiring designers would give anything to join thepany. I suddenly remembered that Eren had worked there for a few years


    Brenda could barely hide the excitement in her eyes. "Wow Is it true that the top student gets to go to Style Mania?"


    Sharon lowered her phone and nodded. "It see


    seems so, but I doubt it''ll be us. Evelyn, you can give it a try."


    Then, she turned toward me. "You''ve been at the top of the ss since freshman year and aced every exam. You''ve alsopleted the assignments better than anyone else. "Evelyn, you''ve got a real shot at this."


    Sharon gave me an encouraging pat on the shoulder, and her words were sincere. I smiled at her and nodded. "Alright, I''ll give it my best shot and not let you down.


    Our original n for a buffet was canceled by the news, and we all dove back into our books. From then on, I was entirely focused on studying and spent time in the dom and the library. After the exams were finally over, I was ready to head back to Yardville when Eren called and asked for my help for a few days.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org.


    Though I had hesitated, I agreed when I heard the urgency in his voice. I informed Liam that I''d be dyed and asked for his help talding care of Grandma for a bit longer.


    When I arrived at Eren''s studio, it was chaotic colleaguese in and out of his office in the furthester, and I sat on the side until Eren finally finished his work and had a moment to talk "I didn''t get the chance to ask thest time you took time off; what lopt you so long?"


    I felt embarrassed, given how hectic things were at the studio. "It was nothing. I just had to go back to Yardville for a bit."
