Even as a doctor, Ronan didn’t get the meaning in his words instantly. It was only after a while that the realization dawned on him and his lips curled in disgust, ’’Heh~ I wish you luck then.’’
"Ah?" Kade blinked, a little spooked out.
’’I doubt your brother is done with you, after all!’’
...
"Disqualify?"
Ella stared at the official email from the university. Her head throbbed.
It has been a week since that incident.
Since that day, she had not seen Adrian.
Esther had not visited the mansion nor had she contacted her. Instead, she kept badgering Rin to know everything that happened.
Rin came clean to Ella about everything. On Ella’s orders, she told Esther that Adrian and Ella fought that day.
Ella had done it on purpose so she could catch a breather and focus on her weight loss journey instead.
With her injury, morning runs were out. Heavy workouts, impossible. So she shifted tactics—trimming portions, choosing healthier meals instead.
However, trouble comes knocking when you least expect it.
Like right now.
Suddenly...
’Woof woof’
With a wag of his tail, the puppy spun and plopped down, offering his fluffy back like a royal decree.
’’How smart you are...’’ Ella bit her lips but eventually gave in the temptation to stroke the puppy.
But when her gaze flitted across to her open laptop screen again, she groaned and closed it.
Since this was the final year, the university had started a new initiative and decided to do some cleaning in order to kick out the academic failures like ’her’ who barely went to classes and failed in most or all exams, including the supplementary exams.
So, this mail was not directly addressed to her but rather, it was addressed to all ’failures’ like her who would be cleansed out of the university a month later after the mid-semester exams.
After looking at the laptop screen for a long time, Ella stood up.
’’This cannot continue.’’
’Woof?’
Ella glanced at the puppy, ’’Let’s go. I will take you to see your father!"
The puppy blinked, visibly confused.
Half an hour later.
’’Miss Yu, are you heading out?" Bertha approached her, visibly nervous.
She noticed how beautifully Ella was dolled up in a baby blue dress.
Perhaps it was her diet change or her current rest, her skin looked supple. Some faint acne marks she had before had also faded. Her skin seemed to glow inside out. She looked like a bleached bao bun.
In her arms, she held the brown puppy who had two pink bows tied to both his ears.
Bertha sighed imperceptibly. Because of her daughter’s grave mistake, she could not really afford to offend Ella.
But regardless of anything, she did not dare to betray Adrian. If Ella planned to run away, then she could only do so over her dead body.
Since the woman’s face displayed subtitles, Ella was not clueless about her worries.
