Meg clutched the book in her arms so tightly that her nails left marks on the cover, yet she didn't even notice. She stood there, frozen, silent.

Taylor, unaware of the tension between Meg and Mirabella, turned to Meg and said, "Professor Hammond asked us to keep an eye on Mirabella, the freshman. I've been too busy with my research to chat with her. Meg, since you're in the same department as Mirabella, you two must get along pretty well, right?"

Taylor nodded in understanding. "Got it. By the way, have you checked the university forum lately?"

Meg felt a pang of anxiety but tried to keep her voice steady as she answered quietly, "No, why?"
