"Miss Aisha, they’re staring again."
Daisy glanced at the potted plant where two people wearing a doctor’s coat were standing.
"Ignore them," Aisha told her. "They’ll stop when they’re satisfied."
"But, why are they following you?"
"Hm, I wonder?"
Aisha sounded like she was curious as well, but she never glanced at the doctors watching her. Daisy couldn’t fathom what her young lady was thinking.
"Look at this, Daisy." Aisha happily called out, pointing her finger at the tiny worm wriggling on the artificial leaf. "Isn’t it adorable?"
Daisy looked down on the little worm and fell silent. Although her loyalty called for her to agree with Aisha’s words, she felt a bit conflicted about her spiritual beast.
When Daisy first saw it, she had no thoughts other than being extremely happy for her young lady. But after seeing Aisha interact with it and spending more time observing it, she couldn’t help but have opposite thoughts about it.
When Aisha said it looked cute the first time, Daisy seriously stared at it. Other than looking small, it didn’t look cute at all. But for her young lady’s happiness, she could only praise the tiny worm.
"Yes, Miss Aisha. It looks adorable."
"Just like me, right?"
Daisy: "..."
"Right?"
"..."
Aisha teased, "Daisy, when you’re with me. Don’t lie, okay?"
Daisy looked at her young lady and was slightly dazed.
Like most guides, Aisha possessed a delicate and fragile beauty. Her porcelain skin was as flawless and cool as fine jade. But her striking, grey eyes made her look sharp and quiet. Her features were gentle, and her every move was graceful, seemingly without making any improper movements.
Even as everyone claims they hated her, no one can possibly dislike that beautiful face, right?
"They left."
Daisy turned in the direction where the doctors were and saw that they weren’t there anymore. It seemed that they left, realizing that they weren’t going to get anything from her.
Thinking about their strange behavior these past few days, Daisy thought about reporting it to the Novalis family. Even if the hospital was backed by the royal family, it shouldn’t be so blatant about its actions towards a female patient.
Just as she was about to tell Aisha about her plan, she saw her young lady taking out her terminal. A deep frown appeared on Aisha’s face.
"What’s wrong, Miss Aisha?"
Aisha squinted at the terminal, her face expressionless, showing no emotion. She simply read the message she had just received from a recipient registered under Imperial Star Academy.
It was a notice of impending dismissal.
It summarizes what the cause of this notice was—her attempt of taking her own life. They want an explanation from her and demand that she immediately report to the academy for behavioral disciplinary action. If she fails to show any changes and improvements in one month, they will be forced to banish her from the academy and restrict her spiritual core.
Daisy waited patiently beside her. Seeing Aisha’s prolonged silence, she sensed something was wrong. But she couldn’t just peek at her terminal and see what she had just read.
