The Moment I Stepped Into His World as the Fake Girlfriend, I Became the Real Prize novel Chapter 146

"Sure, you keep thinking about that."

Perhaps it was the fever fogging his brain, but Sterling was incredibly distracted, simply resting his head back on his arms.

Moments later, the professor walked in and the lecture began.

Halfway through, Lorelei quietly swapped seats with someone, sliding into the desk diagonally behind Elena.

"Ms. Larkin, is your hand okay? Does it hurt a lot?"

She asked in a hushed whisper, sliding a small note across the desk.

Elena shook her head, gesturing that it wasn't serious.

Lorelei quickly scribbled another note: "Don't worry, Ms. Larkin! I posted about you on the forum, and now tons of people are hardcore shipping you and Sterling..."

Elena: "..."

Her lips twitched into a helpless, dry smile. "Thank you so much, Lorelei."

"You're welcome! I did it because I wanted to."

Staring at Lorelei's beaming, proud face, Elena debated for a moment before deciding to gently burst her bubble. "Lorelei, Sterling and I haven't known each other long. The odds of us making it to the end are pretty much zero. Do you understand?"

Lorelei didn't hesitate for a second, fully committing to her fangirl agenda. "That's totally fine! Shipping is all about enjoying the ride! As long as you two are together for even one day, I'll be your biggest fan!"

Was this girl's brain completely devoid of complex logic?

"Ms. Larkin, is it hard to put your hair up with your hand injured?"

As the class neared its end, the professor wrapped up the lecture and promptly left the room.

The quiet classroom instantly buzzed with life.

Unable to hold back anymore, Lorelei finally pointed out Elena's crooked ponytail.

Elena reached up to touch her hair. "Is it really crooked?"

"Just a little bit! Want me to fix it for you?"

Given her seat, Lorelei was in the perfect position to help, so she happily volunteered.

Elena recalled Sterling's disastrous attempt at styling her hair that morning. It truly was a tragic mess.
