As the dorm door opened, Yasmin entered. “Skylar, there’s someone here to see you and seems to be arguing with the dorm manager.”
Skylar quickly went downstairs with Avery following behind.
When they saw Sheldon, Avery snorted thinking that Yasmin made a mistake.
Avery assumed Sheldon was here for her. After all, she confessed her feelings to him the previous night and was still waiting for his answer.
She didn’t expect him to agree so quickly and to visit her in school.
Smiling gleefully, Avery walked up to him. “You should have just called me instead and I’ll go see you. There’s no need for you to come all the way here.”
Skylar was confused at her words. Though, she felt it was normal for Sheldon and Avery to know each other.
After all, the rich do socialize within the same circle.
Seeing that, Skylar too suspected that Yasmin had heard wrongly and Sheldon was there for Avery.
“I’m not here for you. My brother asked me to pass something to Skylar. I’m just a messenger.” To prove what he said was true, he even raised the bag of stuff that he brought.
Avery was dumbfounded. At that moment, she felt as if she had been slapped in public and was utterly humiliated.
As Sheldon waved at Skylar, he handed her the shopping bag he brought.
“Tobias got me to pass them for you. It’s really hard for me to get in the female dorm.”
Receiving the bag, Skylar asked, “What’s inside?”
Sheldon scratched his head. “You keep asking me questions that I can’t answer. I don’t know what’s inside either. You will find out when you open it later.”
Avery was extremely upset that Tobias was still keeping in touch with Skylar. In fact, he even got Sheldon to pass her stuff.
For Avery, seeing Sheldon alone was a difficult endeavor.
After giving it some thought, Skylar declined. “You should take them back. I don’t want them.”
Sheldon recoiled in horror. “No, don’t do this to me. Tobias told me not to return if you didn’t accept it.”
