Love Game With The Rebel Billionaire

Chapter 16: Evangeline’s Announcement

THE next few days went surprisingly well for me. I peacefully attended my classes, fulfilled my library duties, and ate in the canteen, likely because Ash was suspended and couldn't disturb me. Oh, well, except for this.

"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry!" said a tourism student before pouring her milk tea over my head. She only poured a little, but it was enough to make my entire head sticky. Fuck.

"I didn't mean to do it, but at least you got a taste of milk tea," she said mockingly, pointing to her head, "just not through your mouth."After she said that, her friends, who seemed just as cheap, laughed together before walking away. I wanted to curse them out, but I pulled out a handkerchief from my pocket and wiped my head instead.

This was the only thing I disliked about my current situation. They did it on purpose. Everyone hates me now because of Ash's suspension. At least their actions were mild, but hell, Ash wasn't around because he was suspended, but how could he still ruin my day like this?

Because the stickiness wouldn't go away, I finished eating quickly and headed to the restroom to wash my head.

"Damn annoying," I muttered while drying my hair under the hand dryer.

This is all Ash's fault. I told everyone I didn't even like him, but that just made things worse. They said I had a lot of nerve to claim I didn't like the guy they admired.

But if I told them I liked him, they would say the same thing, right? That I had a lot of nerve to like Ash when our worlds were so far apart. No matter what I do or say, it will always have the same outcome.

They'll hate me. It's because they already hate me and are just looking for reasons to validate their anger.

If I followed Mason's advice to show my true self, I'd probably be expelled by now because I wouldn't stop until I pulled out all their hair. Only rich people can be authentic because even if the world turns its back on them, they can still survive on their own.

They have the money, power, and influence to do that. And... What do I have? Various debts? Problems?
