"I heard that you went to a second-rate university. What a waste. Your SAT scores were high enough to get into Kleymond University back then. I feel sorry for you."

If Julia's smile had lessened, Maeve would have believed she was feeling sorry for her, rather than gloating.

Moreover... everything Julia said didn't seem real to her.

Maeve had no impression of these things at all.

Nothing.

Except for one thing. When she was hospitalized with a high fever and shock, the Reese family people filled in her college entrance applications.

Everything was already set in stone and could not be changed when she woke up..

Maeve had been angry and hateful, unable to understand why they were pushing her into the fire, ignoring her desire to attend Kleymond University and making other choices for her.

She had an unprecedented fight with her family because of it, causing her illness to worsen.

Later, she packed her luggage and moved out of the house before school started.

During that period, she found many part-time jobs and worked non-stop like a top to earn money to save up for her tuition fees. It was just that she occasionally felt empty.

Occasionally, she would think of Kleymond University and envy her classmates who could study there. However, even. though her university was not far from Kleymond University, she had never thought of visiting it. 'It would be cruel to look back on something that had been lost. But is that all?' thought Maeve.

Maeve's eyes were filled with confusion. She thought, 'I can't understand why I would be upset about an experience that might be fabricated to slander me.'

She had only taken a few steps forward when she suddenly saw a tall and slender figure under the eaves of the corridor. He was half-hidden in the bushes and looked at her diagonally.

Maeve's heart skipped a beat and she felt flustered.

"When did you get here?" asked Maeve.

Byron naturally did not miss the panic on her face. His deep eyes were unreadable, and his tone was indifferent. "Just now."
