When Avery heard Skylar’s snide remarks, her true feelings were not written on her face.
After leaving the dorm, Skylar went to the instructor’s office to cancel her leave. The instructor was on bad terms with her. During the spring trip, he blamed her for all their problems. Also, Skylar didn’t gift him anything when he went around announcing his wedding to everyone.
All the students sent him wedding gifts privately except for Skylar.
After knocking on the door, Skylar informed him of her purpose of visit. Standing in front of his table, the instructor scrutinized her from head to toe. He realized that she had become a different person ever since she started acting in a movie. Skylar was holding a Hermès bag and wearing clothes from Chanel. Her pants were from a brand he didn’t even recognize.
Despite being rich after starting from humble beginnings, she was still oblivious about his wedding. That was utterly disrespectful of her!
“You didn’t complete all your credit hours. Hence, you need to repeat the semester again.” The instructor pulled out her notice to repeat from a file of documents.
Skylar was puzzled. “Why do I need to repeat when I have taken leave? Before I went filming, I already applied for leave from you.”
“No, you didn’t do that,” the instructor lied. He did remember Skylar applying for leave but he had canceled it. He preferred students that curry favor with him instead of the stingy ones.
It isn’t about money. It’s about respect.
“I did apply for leave three months ago!” Skylar was guessing if the instructor was making her life difficult on purpose. It was of no use if it was just her word against his.
“I have no record of that. You should just accept the notice. If you can’t do it, I’m afraid you can’t continue studying here.”
Skylar suppressed the urge to roll her eyes. She forced a laugh instead. “I’ll go and check with the administrative office and hope that you have made a mistake. After all, I have a weak heart and will feel miserable if I have been wrongly accused. I’ll be so depressed that I may leave this world for another one. Who knows what I’ll do when I’m impulsive. I’m just worried I’ll get you involved.”
