With the recent opening of her own company, there was a heap of things awaiting her attention.
Internships would only waste her time.
“Is it really okay not to intern?” Erica asked.
Having studied abroad before, she wasn’t familiar with domestic internship mechanisms. But every time her friends mentioned it, they made it sound like writing the internship report was a painful ordeal.
Randy remarked, “What could possibly go wrong? Debra can just stamp a few documents. Writing a thesis won’t be a problem for her.”
They all could provide Debra with the necessary stamps.
If not for his business overseas, Marion could have not only stamped one document for Debra but ten.
Suddenly, the phone on the table rang. Randy hurried over to answer it. The caller ID showed it was the principal.
Randy listened, responding with a series of what, why, and finally okay. After the call ended, Erica asked, “What’s going on?”
“It’s school,” Randy said with distress. “They said this year’s graduate internships will be centrally allocated by the school. Never heard of this before. What’s next, anti–cheating measures?”

Debra absentmindedly tapped on the keyboard. “If they want to allocate, let them allocate. I can just slack off and play dumb till the end

Debra’s fingers paused on the keyboard. “Shelia?”
“Shelia?” Erica echoed, surprised. “Since when did she join the graduate program?”

If not for the principal’s call earlier, he wouldn’t have known that Juan had arranged for Shelia to enter the graduate program. This was nothing but underhanded dealings.
Debra appeared composed. After all, everyone in Seamar City knew how much Juan favored Shelia. To secure her entry into the graduate program, he had even broken established rules. It showed just how important Shelia was to him.
But Debra distinctly remembered Shelia planning to study abroad.
‘What made her change her mind?‘
