[It's just something we organized for fun. Why is this affected?! Ivy Foster was in second place the last time I checked! She is number one to me, but the one ranking first comes from a wealthy background and practically bought the votes.]
...
Ivy blushed.
She did not know about the poll, nor had she expected to be so famous among students.
Though she did not care much about fame, she was still happy that there were so many people who voted for her.
Although she had not asked for the admin to remove her from the poll, she assumed that they had decided to do so for their own sake. Since she did not wish to draw the attention of others and the troubles that came with it. She felt glad that they had decided to remove her from the poll.
After a while, Layla responded to her message. [I will be back in a few days. I still haven't climbed the mountain here!]
Ivy had messaged Layla earlier asking when she would be back.
[Layla, are you going to climb the mountain on your own?]
[I'm not actually climbing. I am going to take the cable car up and experience what it's like to be on top of a mountain.]
[Okay. Remember to take photos.]
[Of course.]
Ivy held onto her phone, wanting to ask Layla about Eric, but she did not dare to do so.
"If Layla finds out that we all know about it, will she feel embarrassed?" she thought.
"I just came back. Why were you calling for your mom?"
"I want Mom to pick out a few clothes for me. I just saw a few winter jackets online, and I don't know which one to pick," Ivy lied.
"Online purchases aren't that reliable. If you want a jacket, I will have someone send some over for you to pick," Elliot said endearingly.
Avery glared at him. "You don't understand the joys of online shopping. Just go and eat!" She then pulled Ivy up the stairs with her.
As soon as they were on the second floor, Ivy immediately showed Avery the message she had received from Layla.
Meanwhile, in Cambrode, Layla and Eric were having breakfast in the hotel.
"I've already bought the tickets to go up to the mountain. Once we get to the top, there's something that I need to say to you," Layla deadpanned after taking a sip of milk.
