Fatigue eventually caught up with him, and he drifted into sleep while still immersed in his study.***The soft morning light penetrated through the curtains, awakening Josh from his sleep. With a stretch, he rose from his cozy bed and sat up. Grabbing his cellphone, he checked the time, noticing that he had about two more hours before class started.

Ignoring the stares and the talks about him from some of the students, Josh continued on his way. He knew he couldn't pay attention to them as it was what they wanted, also he was used to people disdainfully staring his way and talking bad, so it didn't really affect him anymore. “Hey loser, I know you can hear me.” The curly haired blonde guy called out after seeing that Josh had ignored him completely, embarrassing In Front of his friends.And he was hoping that after calling him out like that, Josh would finally stop, however to his disappointment it was like his words fell on deaf ears.Josh continued walking nonchalantly until he reached the classroom door.

Miss Andrews led Josh to the teacher's lounge where she was going to have a talk with him about something.

The woman noticing that not only did Josh almost make her fall down on her face, he had also made her spill coffee on herself, couldn't help feeling angry. She glared at Josh, her frustration now directed at the ruined clothes. "Look what you did! My outfit is ruined!" she exclaimed in a accusatory tone. She was blaming Josh for the collision, when in reality it was her fault for focusing on her cellphone and not looking where she was going.

Ever since Amelia found out that Josh came from a wealthy family, she harbored a desire to befriend him. However, she knew that her previous behavior, including mocking him and calling him poor, had likely made that impossible. But the incident in the cafeteria had presented an unexpected opportunity for her to try and impress him.Josh was taken aback by Amelia defending him.

Her willingness to stand up for him, despite the potential backlash, caught him completely off guard.However, his surprise didn't last long as he quickly realized that she was probably only coming to his defense because she knew he was rich.

Upon hearing Mark's proposal about a wager, Amelia nodded without hesitation. “Not a problem, what's the wager?” She asked. She wasn't worried about Josh not being able to afford the outfit, knowing that he is rich. In Fact she was suspecting that Josh might come from a richer family than her, seeing as he drove a more expensive car, and on top of that the mansion he lived in was very luxurious.Being ignorant of Josh's background, Mark was convinced that Josh was a poor guy, and he couldn't possibly afford to replace the shirt.A sinister and satisfied smile appeared on Mark's face upon hearing Amelia agree to the bet.

Turning to locate the source of the voice, Josh's eyes landed on a familiar face, and a frown appeared on his features as recognition set in. It was Kathy, his ex-girlfriend, standing there with a smirk that got on his nerves. Kathy entered the boutique with a confident smirk spread across her face. She was dressed in a tight sleek black dress that accentuated her curves, and her outfit was completed with stylish heels. As she walked further inside the boutique, she finally stopped walking and turned to look at Josh with a disdainful look. “What do you think you're doing here?” She asked, her face twisting into a disgusted expression.

Kathy had attempted to make Josh's experience in the boutique awful, however to her disappointment, Josh simply ignored her as it she was nothing. And of course that bothered her to the core.
