Danielle gave Brent one last look, then afterwards, she started buying her own food since she is in a hurry.

==============================

Nighttime came.

Danielle is currently at her apartment. She's lying in her bed, and she's been staring at her bedroom's ceiling for almost half an hour now. Her mind can still remember the scene that happened at Palmridge University Cafeteria during lunchtime.

She can vividly remember on how Dale and the two girls mockingly teases the poor student, who just wants to peacefully eat his lunch so that he can go ahead to his next class.

But before the bullies could let him quietly eat his lunch, they demanded him to finish their Humanities project on their behalf. And the poor student agrees in the end just to protect himself.

What's more disappointing to her is Brent Montreal didn't say nor do anything to help his fellow. He just sat there just watching everything.

She never thought that Brent is such a bully, and he looks like he didn't care at all
