"My aunt used to be the host of a TV show, but she quit after she fell ill. She works as a tutor now, but she is quite picky with who
she teaches. | majored in broadcasting because of her. I've always looked up to her," the girl said.
"I picked this major because of my respect for a certain broadcaster as well," Ivy said.
"Oh? Who is it?"
Ivy did not know what to say because the broadcaster she respected was from Taronia.
All the shows she had watched and the news she had consumed hade from Taronia, so she did not know much about
broadcasters or television hosts in Aryadelle.
"lI don't know her name," Ivy lied.

"Ivy, you never join any gatherings. Do you not like going to gatherings, or does your family forbid you from going? It is quite a lot
to stay in the residences near our campus, so your family must be quite rich!"
"No, my family doesn't care about that. | just don't like gatherings. | would join if those activities hold credits, though."
"Hahaha! You are so funny. They all say that you look down on others because you are pretty, but my aunt said otherwise. She said
that you take your studies really seriously and are really polite, so she said that you are definitely not that arrogant," the girl said.
Ivy blushed, not knowing what to say. She did not want others to find out about her family because once one person found out,
everyone would find out.
"Ivy, don't worry. | won't tell anyone about the extra lessons you have been taking or that you live outside of campus."
"Thank you! | just want to focus on my studies, and | don't want to waste my ton other things."
"I respect you. Not only are you pretty, but you are so hardworking, too. | am hardly any match for you."
"Don't say that. I'm just stupid and need to work harder to catch up."
"You are so modest!"
Ivy could not tell the girl that she had only managed to get into this university thanks to Elliot's connections. She changed the
subject, "What else did your aunt say?"
The girl scowled thoughtfully and shook her head. "My aunt won't tellanything else, saying it's a secret, but | overheard her
telling my mom that you paid her very well, so | figured that you must be quite rich. Even if my aunt doesn't say a thing, | would
have known about it though. Her fees are rather high, so anyone who can afford to hire her has to be quite wealthy."
Ivy nodded. "I'm sure anyone who can study here must be well-to-do."
"I guess. People who take this major can't be that poor. The ones who aren't that wealthy often go for majors that guarantee better

Ivy slowly began to let her guard down at the girl's sincere tone.
"I'm going to the canteen, are youing?" Ivy asked.
"I'm going there, too. Let's eat together!"
"Sure."
When the two arrived at the canteen, Ivy's phone started to vibrate, and she immediately took it out.
She realized Robert was calling and walked away to answer the call.
"Ivy, | checked your schedule, and you probably don't have lessons tonight, right? Dad and Layla are back so I'ming to pick
you up," Robert said.
