Ivy was surprised as she did not know that Elliot and Layla were coming home. She held onto her phone and turned to the girl next to her, "I'm sorry! I need to go home now. I will buy you dinner next time!" "Go ahead! I'll just have dinner on my own," the girl said.

"Okay," Ivy said before hurrying out of the canteen.

"Who were you talking to, Ivy?" Robert overheard Ivy through the phone.

"A schoolmate. She's not from my class," she said. "Where are you right now, Robert?"

"I'm almost reaching," Robert said casually. "Have you gotten yourself a new friend?"

"No. It's quite a coincidence, actually. I asked my lecturer to refer me to a tutor, and he did. It turns out that my new tutor is that girl's aunt," Ivy explained briefly. "She seems nice and doesn't look like the kind of person who would run her mouth."

Robert was famous at his university as everyone knew who his family was, so he had never faced similar concerns. He tried his best to stand in Ivy's shoes and said, "Just be careful who to trust."

"I know." Ivy's lips curled into a smile when she thought about Elliot and Layla. "Why didn't Dad and Layla tell us that they were coming home?"

"I just found out myself. I guess they decided on it at the last minute!" Robert said.
