Sylvia's POV:
Alina's ploy didn't surprise me at all. It wasn't the first time that she tried to ruin my reputation.
But it was just as Rufus said: it didn't matter what others said about me. Life must go on.
In time, the truth would reveal itself. I would prove myself one day.
So the public's opinion of me didn't faze me at all. Alina's plan was futile.
I put my phone down and shrugged it off. Now, I needed to go back to my room to move my things.
On my way there, Flora called me. She spent quite some time cursing those who spread the rumor and then comforted me.
After getting off the phone with her, I received a brief message from Rufus. He was only reminding me of the time I was supposed to register as the new team leader.
