If the four young women couldn’t recognize Diana’s surname, it was different for one young man who was now looking at Diana full of curiosity.
He had a feeling that this beautiful woman is not an ordinary person. Just the fact that she is an alumna of the rank 1 University in all of Great Blackhampton, that in itself is incredible.
Right after the introductions, they started to elect officers among themselves.
Diana remained quiet, trying to be inconspicuous. A good thing that the other graduate students wanted their names to be known so they volunteer themselves to the positions. Halynn and the other three insisted on being in it as well.
After that, Ben West handed out the pamphlets from the clubs and some Application forms. With that, they were dismissed.
Picking up her bag, Diana stood up and headed out. Moments later, she felt like somebody was following her. She s
Walking around the store, the ladies were followed by four attendants. The man who came with them, sat on a couch, drinking tea. There were sweet treats on the table as well. “What about this one?” Rosemary has been asking for her daughter’s opinion since they started browsing through the gowns. She held a long off the shoulder red velvet gown. Diana liked it but was still looking for other ones, so she just took it from her mom and handed it to the attendant. “I’ll try it out later..” Rosemary nodded and showed her another gown. This time is a white A-line gown that has a long sleeve on one side only. The attendant held that one too. After a while, the two seemed to find something they like. The two exchanged glances. “Take that one too..” Rosemary told the attendant who immediately moved to get it. Meanwhile, the other attendant went to get shoes or sandals as
At the Moonlit Fork Club, five young women sat together on one of the tables, chatting, drinking, and dancing, sometimes with other men. One of them was looking depressed while the other was busy messaging her boyfriend on her phone. The other three kept accepting invitations from men to dance, earning free drinks from them. “He really doesn’t want to come?” Matilda asked Olly for nth time. Her boyfriend responded with a sad emoji. “Baby, I can’t do anything. He really doesn’t want to. He even called up our colleagues to talk about business. I’m stuck here too.” Matilda sent him a gif of a girl with a pouting face. “I miss youuuuu..Mwaaahh” She sent a voice message. “I miss you moooooore… Mwaah..Mwaahh” He replied with a voice message as well. Halynn heard this from the side. Swirling, her drink, she tried to appear nonchalant as she asked.
“Get in.” A cold voice spoke. She raised her head and saw that Jayden was already about to get in his car. Looking around her, she didn’t see her friends. “Olly is taking them home.” Startled, Halynn could only open the car’s door and get in, afraid to be left behind. Jayden didn’t say a word to her the whole time, making her feel anxious. ‘Will he ask his parents to cancel our engagement?’ She feared. Her fists clenched tight, she summoned her courage to bite the bullet. This is her last chance. “Umm.. Can you not take me home? I--I don’t want my parents to see me like this.” Halynn said softly, as if about to cry again. Jayden frowned. “Why did you do this in the first place?” Halynn was quiet. “I know I was wrong. I’m sorry to involve you.” He didn’t say
5:30 AM, Tuesday, the alarm blared, waking the two ‘lovebirds’. Still with a little sleepiness left, Jayden stirred and reached for the alarm to shut it off. Stretching his muscles, he slowly left the bed and headed to wash up in the bathroom. It was only until the cold shower had completely woken him up that he remembered the events last night. His eyes dimmed. His lips curled up sinisterly. Although his so-called fiancee is not plain-looking, she still couldn’t compare to that woman he saw yesterday. Even from afar, he could tell that she was a beauty that didn’t need embellishments to bring it out. He kept wondering who that woman was. Yesterday, he already had his ears listening for any clue as to her background. He wanted to know her name, if she has a boyfriend, what course she is taking up, and if her family is influential. How he will proceed will depend on whet
Inside classroom 2A on the second floor, the students chattered amongst themselves while waiting for their Professor. Three young women were busy taking photos of themselves and browsing online. Matilda called Halynn as she was not in the room yet. They just got there not long ago. “Heyy.. You guys here yet?” Matilda asked. She came early, excited to know what happened after they separated last night. “Mmn. I’m on my way up now.” She said, her steps unhurried. “Okay… See you then..” “Mn.” Outside of the classroom, Diana was only a few steps to the door when she saw a familiar face just outside the door, looking at the time on his wristwatch. It made her look at her wristwatch too, sighing in relief when she saw she’s not late yet. “Good morning, Professor!” Diana greeted with a s

“What’s your next subject, Diana?” Cora asked as Diana came back to her seat, bringing a round container and a light purple drink. “Umm.. I have Early Human Development at 1..” She answered after remembering her schedule. “Is it at 3A?” Diana nodded. Clap! Cora clapped her hands together, her face full of smiles. “We’re in the same class! Kobe too.. Let’s see.. That ends at 5pm, do you have another class after that?” Diana shook her head, slurping on the bubble tea. “Us too.. Tomorrow we have Introduction to Clinical and Community.. That’s every Monday and Wednesday, all morning. Then what else…” “Medicine I in the afternoon.” Kobe reminded her. “Oh..yeah.. Medicine I, also every Monday and Wednesday, all afternoon. We only have 4 subjects this semester. What about you?”
Olly turned to look at his friend. Shaking his head, he decided to drop the topic. As much as he felt bad for his girlfriend’s friend, he also didn’t want to side with her against his own friend. He has seen Jayden being approached by other girls. Initially they would say they were attracted to his looks, talents, skills or achievements, or even outright say they like his body. But in the end, they’re really just eyeing the position as his future wife. In the digital era, IT companies are really booming. Barrington Centre has been successful all these years, from rank 20, 6 years ago, now it has entered the top 10. Their ultimate goal is to beat Lovell Technologies which is ranked 1st Internationally. At 22 years old, not only is Jayden busy building his career, he is also busy fending off gold-diggers. Although Halynn’s family, Ashton Family, has a lot of branches of t
