Kaylee shook her head, "Thanks for the offer, everyone. I'll treat you all to a meal some other time. Today, I need to spend time with my friend."

"Oh, look at you! Ever since you joined the Rose Design Team, you've changed so much. You used to be as sweet as a bunny, never saying no. Now, you can't even have a meal with us." One of the girls sneered.

Kaylee just smiled warmly and didn't say a word.

The team leader shot the girl a warning glance before handing Kaylee her phone, reminding her to stay safe on her way back to campus.

Grabbing her phone, Kaylee happily went off to find Flora.

"What's there to brag about? I don't get what the Rose Design Team sees in her... A freshman? What makes her so special?"

The girl who got warned earlier muttered bitterly, jealousy dripping from her words.

After having lunch with Kaylee, Connor arranged for a ride to take her back to campus, while he and Flora headed back to Shallow Bay.

They got back to Shallow Bay around three in the afternoon.

Connor had a mountain of work to tackle, so he got straight to it. Flora, on the other hand, curled up on a small couch, engrossed in her phone.

Jules sent her a message.
