Everything was settled at this point, so it was impossible for Ivy to quit. She nodded and said, "From the moment I agreed to take the internship, I knew that this would happen."

"If you are that horrible at it, your tutor would have never suggested that you intern at the station. The people who speak ill of you behind your back only do so because they don't know you; even if they do know you in person or find out your identity, they might still do the same. You need to understand that no matter what you do or how well you do it, there will be people who dislike you," Layla said, consoling her. "The first step of growing up is to stay strong."

"Have you been through this, Layla?"

"Of course. Unlike you, since I was a little girl, everyone knew who I am. I'm Elliot Foster's daughter, which is why it never mattered what I did. Even if I earned my place, people would always say that I accomplished it because of my dad." Layla did not feel a thing mentioning this. "We live for ourselves, not for others. Just make sure that you are content. Your classmates will only be in your life for this stage of your life. Once you graduate, you might not ever see them again."

"Yeah."

"What your classmates think doesn't matter. Just work hard and only work for your tutor's approval."

"You are right, Layla." Ivy felt the weight on her shoulders lifting. "Are you going to pick Eric up?"

"Depends on when the nurse arrives." Layla took out her phone to call the nurse. "Once the nurse is here, we will go pick Eric up together."

Ivy nodded.
