Ivy had not expected to be told such a thing and did not know how to respond.
Just then, Robert sent her another message. [You can talk to him if you want. He's not a bad person. I just don't know what to say to him since he keeps acting like he's being abandoned.]
[Is Layla close to him?] Ivy replied.
[They are friends, I guess! Layla doesn't like him that way. She thinks of him as a friend, but he obviously doesn't think so.]
After giving the matter some consideration, Ivy texted Robert a reply. [He is outside my university. Since he is Layla's friend, I guess I can meet him! Let's see if I can convince him to let this go.]
[I felt the same in the beginning, but I soon realized there was nothing I could do! If he keeps bothering you, block his number.]
[Sure. I will.]
An hour later, Ivy arrived at the cafe where Andrew was waiting for her. They spotted each other immediately as Andrew was the only foreigner there and Ivy was the only person who stared right at him the moment she stepped through the door.
He waved his hand at her and she hurried over to him.
"Hi, Ivy. I'm Layla's friend, Andrew. I'm not sure if your sister ever mentioned me," Andrew said with a smile.
Ivy shook her head. "My sister is in Cambrode."
"I know. It's a shame. I really like her, but I couldn't get her to like me back."
"I'm sure you have a lot of admirers as well, but you don't return their feelings, do you?"
Half an hour later, Ivy ended the meeting with Andrew, and he politely escorted her out.
"It's fine. I don't want to have to explain this to my classmates." She waved him goodbye and hurried back to campus.
In the evening, the photo of Ivy and Andrew at the cafe appeared on the university forum. Ivy's face could be seen in the photo, but the photo only captured Andrew's back.
Since the start of the semester, there was a poll that was going on on the forum to select the best-looking people from each course the university had.
Ivy had never been on the forum, so she did not know that she was famous in the broadcasting major and ranked third for her innocent, angelic looks. Therefore, when the picture of her with the foreigner was posted, the entire forum instantly erupted into chaos.
Someone commented anonymously. [The girl you all consider angel has no interest in you because she likes mature guys!]
