organized all of this to make it easier for you to read said En
The handwisting in the notebook was neat and elegant.
“Okay” Ophelia neerpted it. Feeling the embroidery on the cover, she found it so familiar.
Closing the notebook, she noticed the cover was wrapped in embroidery, with a lifelike peacock in dark blue and moss green threads.
Her tingemps gently traced over the embroidered patterns. It felt so familiar to her.
“Ms. Tyrus, can I ask you a question?” asked Ophelia.
“Go ahead, Enzo said, nodding slightly.
Ophelia parted her lips, but her throat tightened, unsure how to ask.
After a moment. Enzo covered her mouth and coughed heavily, her face turning pale.
Ophelia gently rubbed his back, feeling the protrusion of his spine.
Enzo took a few sips of water. “Ask when you’re ready. It’s almost ten. You should head to your classroom.”
“Alright, get some rest,” said Ophelia.
I’ve arranged for Mr. Glenn to hold the office for you, I’m not feeling great, so I won’t be able to show you there myself. Ill have Mr. Glenn get someone to take you. Hurry up now,” urged Enzo,
Enzo took Ophelia’s hand and gently patted the back of it twice
After Ophelia left, Enzo took out a bottle of medicine from the drawer. They were painkillers for late–stage cancer.
Just as Ophelia stepped out of the teacher’s building, she saw Zackary, who had been waiting for her.
“Sorry, Ms. Spencer. I mistook you for a student. I didn’t expect someone so young to already be a professor. It’s quite impressive. Mr. Glenn asked me to take you to the class. This way, please.” Zackary led the way with a bright smile.
In fact, she didn’t need anyone to guide her. She was very familiar with the sophomore fashion design classes.
Even though it was a short walk, she deliberately kept her distance from Zackary. Zackary kept trying to start conversation eager to learn more about her.
However, Ophelia gave him the cold shoulder.
The large lecture hall was filled with people.
There were three classes in the fashion design program, and for lectures like this, all the classes attended together.
Suddenly, a guy shouted, “Whoa! Mr. Gross is bringing the genius girl to our fashion design program!”
“Genius girl? Which genius girl?”
“Who else? The one on the school forum..

Chapter 131
“What Really
Their weren’t many guys in the fashion design program, and even fewer who were normal. All of them craned their necks to look outside
The girls were curious ton, but they made an effort to keep that curiosity in check
Sitting in the front row, Carly felt her heart skip a beat. She wondered, Is she really coming to our class?
Even before Ophelia arrived, both the boys and the girls in the class were already excited, let alone when she actually came.
“Carly, is that girl really joining our program? Lesly was worried Carly hadn’t heard or wasn’t aware.
“Wow! Mr. Gross even personally bought her here! Being pretty sure gets her special treatment!”
“Alright, stop it. Can’t you see Carly’s face has turned pale?”
“Don’t worry, Carly. You’ll always be my queen. Our fascination with her is just a passing phase. It’s you we really care about,” the guy assured, though his darting eyes betrayed his casual tone
“Maybe that girl doesn’t even look good up close, the people around tried to comfort Carly.
The more Carly heard these words, the more uncomfortable she felt.
When Ophelia passed by the doors of other classes, the students inside also burst into excitement right away.
Lesly yelled, “What’s with all the noise? Have you lost your mind That girl might be prettier than Carly, but she’s just an eye candy. There’s no way she can match up to Carly.
“Don’t forget. Carly just won first place in the national fashion design competition. Could that girl do that?”
Others agreed. “Exactly.”
Carly stared at Lesly like she’d gone mental. Carly thought, Is she stupid? What did she just say? Isn’t she just admitting I am not as hot as that other girl?‘
Zackary led Ophelia to the door.
The lecture hall finally quieted down for a moment.
The guys in the back were kicking themselves for not choosing to sit up front today.
“Is Mr. Gross being a bit too much of a suck–up? Why’s he so polite to the pretty girl?”
“Mr. Gross is nice to everyone though, isn’t he?”
Zackary said, “Ms. Spencer, please go ahead.”
All the students couldn’t believe their ears. “What?”
The entire lecture hall fell so silent that a pin drop could be heard.
The next second, it was like a drop of water falling into a hot frying pan.
“Ms. Spencer?”
“What did Mr. Gross call her? Ms. Spencer?”
“Is she… our new professor?
Chapter Isl
Caly then did everyone remember that they had heard they we getting a new professor this semester.
everyönriemember be
But no one call associate this girl, who looked just like a college student, with the ntle professor.
In the front row, Carly Lesly, and the others were completely stocked, eyes wide open as they watched the young girl walk into the lecture hall.
They thought, Is this a joke! This girl looks about the same age as us. How could she possibly be a professor?
They seemed unable to believe their ears.
Lesly asked. “Mr. Gross, what did you say? What did you say she was
Zackary stood beside the podium and gestured to the students to quiet down. Quiet, everyone quiet
The classroom immediately became silent.
Zackary had never realized how effective his words were. Not a single person dared to speak, and all eyes were on Ophelia, eagerly waiting to find out who she really was.
Carly also clenched her fists, waiting for Zackary to make the introduction.
“Ms. Tyrus is unable to teach this semester due to health reasons. Whether she will return depends on her recovery. Standing next to me is the new professor taking over Ms. Tyrus’s position. Let’s give her a warm welcome,” said Zackary.
The applause and cheers resonated throughout the entire classroom.
Carly’s face darkened.
She couldn’t believe that the girl in front of her was their new professor.
Carly thought, ‘How can that be possible? This girl doesn’t even look older than me.
“Mr. Gross, I have a question. Isn’t she about our age? Are you sure she can teach us? Won’t she lead us astray?” Lesly voiced what half of them were thinking.
“Exactly! It’s better to have Carly teach than her
Carly’s expression softened a bit. She was very confident in her skills.
Zackary looked troubled. “Well…”
He was surprised at first, too, but Raphael hadn’t explained anything to him yet. As class time approached, he was unsure how to introduce Ophelia to the students.
“Alright, settle down. Let’s have Ms. Spencer introduce herself to you all,” said Zackary.
The room burst into applause.
Zackary stepped back to give the podium to Ophelia.
