Marion was always carefree. Suddenly, she remembered her child at home.

She pulled Reese aside by his sleeve and whispered, "Have the housekeeper take our kid to my mom's place. My pregnancy was around the same time as Angeline's. Since Angeline lost her child, I don't want her to feel sad seeing mine."

"Brilliant idea, my dear!" Reese praised Marion.

While chatting with her seniors, Angeline received a call from James. He asked her and Gregory to head to the auditorium first.

After hanging up, Angeline said, "I'll go ahead then."

"Okay! You may go with Gregory first. We'll change and come soon," Marion responded.

Gregory was on his way to the venue but was delayed because he ran into Angeline.

"Alright," Angeline nodded.

While walking with Angeline, Gregory hesitated but asked, "I heard from my cousin that he saw you in Krontos with a young girl by your side."

Angeline didn't mind Gregory's question and smiled at him.

"What about it?"

Gregory felt embarrassed and scratched his head.

"Sorry, Angeline. I was just curious. I admit Ned asked me to inquire, but I won't tell him! It's just that..."

"It's okay," Angeline replied generously, smiling at Gregory.

"The child isn't his! I've said from the beginning that the child isn't his."

Gregory nodded.

"Alright, I won't gossip about it."

The wind blew, rustling the leaves.

Gregory and Angeline walked side by side. Gregory felt the silence was too awkward, so he scratched his head and searched for a topic.

"By the way, the Oceanford graduate swimming team will compete with our team this afternoon. Do you want to go watch?"

"I'd rather not," Angeline said.

"I'm heading back to Oceanford this afternoon."

Gregory nodded. He was unsure of what else to say. He walked ahead, not noticing a basketball flying towards them from the sports field.

"Watch out!"

A shout came from the field. Angeline quickly raised her hand to block it, but the basketball hit her elbow hard and bounced away. Gregory was a bit stunned.

The boy who was playing basketball ran over with his friends.

He picked up the ball and apologized, "Sorry about that..."

When the boy saw Angeline, he suddenly pointed at her and asked, "Are you Angeline?"

Angeline clearly didn't recognize the boy.

She asked, "Who are you?"

Upon Angeline's admission, the boy's face took on a mocking expression.

He glanced at his friends, then at Gregory, and said to Angeline, "I'm from Oceanford College. I didn't expect to see you here at Cloudsville College."

Angeline's expression darkened.

She said to Gregory, "Let's go."

"Why are you leaving? Are you afraid your past at Oceanford College will be exposed?" the boy taunted while bouncing the basketball.

He laughed at Gregory, "I'm telling you, don't let Angeline's looks fool you. Back at Oceanford College, she was quite the flirt, and who knows how many people she slept with.

"Remember when she drugged the heir of Fletcher Corporation and ended up in his bed? Those naked photos of her were distributed all over. If you're into her, just ask how much for a night. But don't get too attached, okay?"

Angeline clenched her fist. She was about to speak when Gregory punched the boy in the face.

"Shut the hell up!"

Gregory was on top of the boy, throwing punches.

The students playing basketball nearby all ran over at the commotion.

"Stop it!"

Angeline tried to pull Gregory away, but his rage made him shove her, causing her to stumble.
