Chapter 25
Her roommate and bestie, Nancy Schultz, rushed over with pieces of cucumber on her face as soon as she entered the room.
“Lindsey, who’s the hottie you were with just now?” she asked excitedly.
The window of their room was facing the school gate, so she happened to see Domenic.
“A friend,” Lindsey answered cryptically while putting on her slippers.
“A ‘friend’?” Nancy rolled her eyes and snickered, “How come I never knew you had such a handsome friend? Can you introduce him to me sometime?”
“He and I… we’re not very close,” Lindsey said perfunctorily.
She sat on the edge of her bed and turned on her laptop, and as soon as she logged into her Facebook, she received a message notification.
“Linds, do you want to join tonight’s friendly match?”
The sender was Lindsey’s partner in an online-game, and the two had become fast friend.
His game ID was “Noir”, but as far as Lindsey knew, his real name was Sumner Lawson.
Sumner had a strong family background and was currently studying abroad, so they had never met in real life.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
“Nope,” Lindsey replied briefly.
“Why? Are you upset today?”
Lindsey was stunned.
She didn’t expect that he’d sense her low mood so quickly.
ALL of a sudden, Lindsey felt the urge to talk to someone about her woes.
She started tapping away at the keyboard, recounting her quarrel with Nina and Ismael in the restaurant earlier tonight.
Although she was able to vent to her anger in the restaurant, Ismael’s threat of expelling her was a thorn in her side.
In all of her college life, she strived to do her best and had followed all the rules.
Not once did she break a rule, but unexpectedly, such an incident happened just as she was about to graduate.
She had offended the dean; expulsion was indeed a possibility.
Thinking of this, Lindsey sighed helplessly.
After learning about what had happened to Lindsey, Sumner cursed Nina and Ismael for being so shameless.
When he was done venting, he added, “Don’t worry.
Karma will bite them in the butt sooner or later.
”
Lindsey was in a better mood after letting it all out and chatting with Sumner.
Feeling sleepy, she shut her laptop, took a shower, and then went to bed.
The following morning, as soon as Lindsey finished freshening up, she received a call from her counselor, asking her to go to the president’s office.
It must’ve had something to do with what happened last night.
Lindsey didn’t expect that it’d escalate to the president of the university.
Would she really be expelled?
While she was deep in thought, her phone suddenly rang.
It was Domenic calling.
Lindsey was a little surprised, but she was thankful for the distraction.
“What’s up, Mr.
Walsh? Why’d you call so early in the morning?”
