Upon hearing this, whispers arose all around.
"Whoa, Zion Sheffield! Faye Sterling is studying under Zion Sheffield?"
"No way! Is that true?"
"Faye Sterling just said it herself. Not only did she get in, but she’s studying under Zion Sheffield."
"Oh my God, I’m so jealous."
Eleanor Sterling couldn’t possibly not know who Zion Sheffield is—he’s her junior, and although they’ve never met, they’re familiar with each other’s names. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
However, he knows her under the name Sally, and isn’t familiar with Eleanor Sterling.
Eleanor Sterling let out a cold laugh.
Looks like Stella Hawthorne was right; Faye Sterling has really latched onto someone influential.
Not only did she get a special admission, but she’s studying under Zion Sheffield.
Stella Hawthorne looked at Faye Sterling in confusion and asked, "Did someone recommend you to get in? Zion Sheffield doesn’t take students."
Faye Sterling looked at her warily and snorted, "What business is it of yours?"
She lifted her chin with a huff and walked away arrogantly.
Watching her newfound smugness, Eleanor Sterling smirked coldly.
Let her come in, just as long as she doesn’t lose her mind; she can stick around a bit longer.
Aaron Underwood was also part of the welcoming party. Initially surprised and delighted to see Faye Sterling, he overheard her words.
Suddenly, he felt a pang of disappointment.
Who helped Faye Sterling?
Now when he texts Faye Sterling, she’s ignoring him completely. Aaron Underwood felt deeply saddened and blamed Eleanor Sterling for everything.
If it weren’t for her, Faye Sterling wouldn’t be acting this way.
The teachers are really busy, and sometimes have students substitute teach classes. He had a large class to substitute for as well.
When the time comes, he’ll make sure Eleanor Sterling tastes defeat.
Seeing her stumble would surely delight Faye, and then he could say something nice, and she might start paying attention to him again.
With help carrying their luggage, Eleanor Sterling and Stella Hawthorne made their way to the dorm with ease.
Downstairs, Xander Lawson was already waiting there.
Since it was a girls’ dormitory, he wasn’t allowed inside, so he waited at the entrance.
Seeing Stella Hawthorne, he nodded, "Miss, I’m not allowed to enter the girls’ dormitory."
Eleanor Sterling didn’t want to make things difficult for him, so she said, "It’s fine, I’ll carry it myself. It’s not like I have much, it’s not heavy."
After speaking, she lifted her luggage and went inside.
Stella Hawthorne sighed lightly and said to Xander Lawson, "You can go back now, I’m fine on my own."
Xander Lawson stood there, looking straight ahead, unmoved, "My duty is to ensure Miss’s safety."
Seeing how stubborn he was, Stella Hawthorne felt frustrated.
He’s definitely monitoring her every move and then reporting back to her father. It’s so annoying.
Knowing she couldn’t persuade him, Stella Hawthorne snorted coldly and walked straight into the dorm, quietly reading.
Inside dorm room 301, there was already a girl present. Eleanor Sterling put down her luggage and began organizing her things.
Stella Hawthorne took the initiative to introduce herself, hoping to make a good impression on her future roommate, "Hello, my name is Stella Hawthorne."
The girl looked up, her expression indifferent, and replied, "My name is Sylvia Jarvis. Is your surname Hawthorne? What’s your relation to The Hawthorne Family?"
Stella Hawthorne chuckled and said, "No relation, just a coincidence."
Upon hearing there was no relation, Sylvia Jarvis’s enthusiasm dimmed, and she went back to reading, ignoring Stella Hawthorne.
However, Eleanor Sterling was a bit surprised; Stella Hawthorne hadn’t mentioned that to her earlier.
Seeing Eleanor Sterling looking her way, Stella Hawthorne winked at her, signaling she would explain later.
