Chapter 50 That Poor Girl

Chloe figured that since she had already asked, Grant would just give her the account details. But to her surprise, Grant said, "Nah, keep the extra cash for your errands. No need to return it. Just help me out next time I need something." Grant's generosity left Chloe at a loss for words. "Grantie, isn't this a bit much?" she managed to say.

Before she could get a response, Grant's assistant Stanley's voice traveled through the line. Probably needed elsewhere, Grant quickly said goodbye and hung up. Chloe stared at her phone, feeling a bit stunned.

She couldn't shake the image of Grant praising her with a pale face last night. Her previously calm heart now felt like it had been hit by a pebble, causing ripples.

After a day of rest at home, Chloe felt much better. The next day, she headed to Quest University for class. As soon as she walked into the classroom, she noticed a group of classmates huddled together, gossiping about something. Curious, she moved closer and realized they were talking about Rena.

"Why did Rena get expelled all of a sudden?"

"Yeah, she didn't do anything wrong."

"She worked so hard to get into Quest University, and now she's expelled. It's such a shame. Her mom would be devastated."

"Totally."

From their chatter, Chloe learned about Rena's expulsion. She couldn't wrap her head around how a stellar student like Rena could get kicked out in just one day.
