"Marcus!"
The middle-aged man behind the desk, wearing reading glasses, looked up and saw Henrik. At first, he thought his eyes were deceiving him, but once he realized it was really Henrik, he called out excitedly.
"Director Summers."
Henrik walked over with a polite greeting.
"It really is you!" Director Summers stood up, maneuvered around a group of freshmen, and came up to Henrik. He clapped Henrik on the shoulder, clearly thrilled. "What brings you back to Maple Grove University? Did you miss us?"
Henrik had been a standout student during his time at the university, excelling in both character and academics. He was well-known and well-liked by the faculty and administration.
Henrik smiled and said, "My sister got into the School of Medicine here. I'm just dropping her off."
Hearing this, Director Summers glanced at Flora, who was standing behind Henrik with a mask on, and smiled. "Here to submit the enrollment documents? Hand them over."
He took the documents from Henrik. The girl at the front of the line, wearing a lemon-yellow sundress, withdrew her hand holding her own documents, a hint of jealousy flickering in her downcast eyes.
The other new students waiting their turn looked on enviously. Connections really do make things easier, they thought, admiring Flora for having such a handsome brother and being so well-connected with the school administration.
When Director Summers opened Flora's file, a quick glance at her name made his hand tremble. He couldn't calm down for a long time.
The national top scorer, Flora!
This family... each one more extraordinary than the last!
...
Flora's dorm was on the fourth floor, Room 407.
