Chapter 155 The Gorgeous Fairy

Eloise followed her gaze and saw that Andrew had indeed arrived. She said while holding her chin, "Maybe Andrew finally compromised?"

Cecilia shrugged. "Honestly, if I had a mother like that, I would have depression."

Charlotte curiously asked, "Why?"

Cecilia thought momentarily and said, "Andrew and I have been classmates since elementary school. I remember one weird thing. In elementary school, it was the time for children to explore their interests. Andrew liked art very much at that time and wanted to be a wandering painter or something. When his mother found out, instead of hitting him, she locked him in a dark room for several days. After that, Andrew never mentioned being a painter again and obediently learned music and calligraphy."

Eloise whispered, "I once heard my mother say that Rachel is not treating him as her son. Some parents who couldn't go to college themselves force their children to go to college. Rachel is that kind of person. She comes from a low background, so she desperately tried to ingratiate herself with Elizabeth and used all means to make her son completely assimilate into our circle. Sometimes...I feel sorry for Andrew. His mother never treated him like a son but rather like some project."

"Andrew has always been an outstanding boy, no matter what he does. But he can't fight for what he likes."

Charlotte bit her pen and didn't know what to say.

Nicholas reached out and took the pen from her hand. "You're still biting your pen at this age?"

Charlotte smiled awkwardly.

Eloise immediately covered her face with her hand. "No! Char, you can't smile right now!"

Charlotte was confused. "Why?"

Eloise said firmly, "Your smile makes me want to kiss you... Ah, you're so beautiful. I'm afraid I'll turn lesbian."

Cecilia held her arm and looked at Charlotte with an examining gaze. Her fair and radiant skin, delicate facial features, innocent and sweet smile...

Cecilia rubbed her forehead and thought, 'What a gorgeous little fairy!'

"Nicholas has seen a lot," Eloise said as she leaned on the table. "Look at him! Not surprised at all!"

Nicholas gave a faint, lazy smile, lips slightly curled. "You think I'm not surprised? What if I'm just not showing it?"

Eloise said, "I believe you're different from a superficial guy like me, Nicholas."

Nicholas replied, "Sorry, but I'm letting you down."

Eloise was left speechless.

Charlotte adjusted her hat and whispered, "Maybe I should wear a mask to school from now on..."

Eloise immediately said, "It's your charming face; why can't you show it? Don't hide it; some people would think they're better looking than you are."

She glanced meaningfully at Cassidy as she spoke.

Cassidy was browsing the Campus Network. Someone had previously claimed that those candid photos were Photoshopped, but those voices disappeared completely after Charlotte came to school today. They were replaced by various open images, with shameless flatterers praising Charlotte's beauty.

Cassidy felt annoyed and restless.

So what if Charlotte looked good? That did not change the fact that she was an illegitimate child. These people were so shallow!

Cecilia had been worried that Charlotte's desk would be filled with love letters. At lunchtime, someone stopped Charlotte and confessed his feelings to her. He finally managed to say "I like you" stutteringly, but before Charlotte could respond, he blushed and ran away.

Charlotte looked at Cecilia confusedly and asked, "Was he asking for directions just now? Why did he suddenly run away?"

Cecilia said, "Maybe he needed to use the bathroom."

That poor boy finally mustered up the courage to confess his feelings, but Charlotte didn't understand and thought he was asking for directions.

"I see." Charlotte nodded and twisted her fingers. "I want garlic roasted pork ribs and Orleans grilled wings for lunch."

Now, she could order whatever she wanted. That was great!

Eloise said dotingly. "Sure, Char, I'll buy you two pounds of ribs."

"But I can't finish it," Charlotte said.

Eloise couldn't help but exclaim, 'Oh, you adorable little thing.'

...

"Vinny," Cassidy said sarcastically, "You never told me that Charlotte has such a pretty face."

Vivian paused eating and smiled. "I don't think it's important."

"Not important?" Cassidy sneered. "Why don't you check Campus Network? They've crowned Charlotte as the campus belle, and she now has a bunch of admirers!"

Vivian still had the same calm look on her face. "Char has always been pretty since she was little. I'm used to it."

Cassidy was left speechless. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Vivian stood up and said, "Cassidy, I'm done eating. I have something to do. Take your time."

Vivian went to the bathroom, touched up her make-up, and then went alone to the gym, where she saw someone playing basketball on the court, sweating profusely.

"Andrew!" Vivian called out.

Andrew, holding a basketball, turned around to look at Vivian.

He didn't know about the grievances between Vivian and Charlotte because Vivian had always acted like a good elder sister, and he thought her relationship with Charlotte was pretty good. So he smiled reluctantly and said, "It's you. What brings you here?"

Vivian tilted her head and smiled, "You seem upset."

Andrew sat beside her, took a sip of bottled water, and asked, "How did you know?"

Vivian playfully smiled, "I won't tell you that. Char has been ignoring me lately, and I'm quite upset, too."

Andrew asked, "Why would Char ignore you?"

"... maybe because she becomes a member of the Clark family and Mr. Clark spoils her, she feels like she doesn't need an older sister anymore." Vivian lowered her head, her voice sounding a little sad. "Char has been outstanding since she was young, both in grades and looks. When she first came to our house, she was very timid, and I shared my candy and Barbie dolls with her. But even then, she didn't want to call me 'sister.'"

Andrew quickly reassured her, "Char is a bit introverted. She must be very grateful to you."

"Is that so?" Vivian smiled self-mockingly. "Now that she's so popular, she'll probably ignore me even more in the future... Andrew, you don't have to comfort me, I understand. What about you and Char... what are you planning to do?"

Andrew's expression darkened a bit, and he spoke in a subdued tone, "...She wants a clean break with me."

Vivian looked surprised for a moment, but soon she understood. "She is Mr. Clark's woman now. It's understandable for her to do this."

Andrew asked softly, "Do people go against their hearts because of wealth or power?"
