Get Spoiled after Travelling into A Novel

Chapter 17 One Minute of Restraint

The following day, upon entering the classroom, Milly noticed that everyone was casting strange glances in her direction.

Taking her seat, she was approached by the student in front of her. She asked in a low voice, “Milly, have you checked the blog?”

Furrowing her brow, Milly adjusted her thick glasses and honestly replied, “No, I haven’t.”

She had been engrossed in studying ancient poetry for the past few days and neglected even basic necessities like water, leaving her no time to check her phone.

She asked, “What’s going on? Has something happened?”

The classmate that sat in front of her was Allison Walters, a charming girl with glasses and a doll–like face.

Allison hesitated. She pursed her lips and eventually handed her phone to Milly and said, “You should see for yourself.”

The article had gained significant attention since being posted last night. There were hundreds of comments by morning.

Stop arguing. Did you notice her last name? It’s Burnett. She comes from a wealthy family!
