Spoiled by the Silver Fox novel Chapter 73

"Pfft... Gillian, not funny, you know I'm over two months older than you!"

"Height is what matters! Look at you, you're still the same height as before, and you haven't grown any taller!"

Stephanie rolled her eyes and that's when Gillian noticed the bruise on her face, frowning, "Steph, what happened, did someone bully you at work?"

Stephanie shook her head, "Nah, it's just a small injury, no biggie!"

Seeing that Stephanie didn't want to talk any further, Gillian didn't pry and instead asked about Marilyn's condition.

Stephanie replied, "My mom's doing okay, nothing serious, her condition is stable now... with continuous treatment she'll recover."

Gillian was delighted, "Really? So, after your mom recovers, why don't you join me at school? You were admitted to Center Stage too but you gave up going to college because of your mom's illness."

Stephanie chuckled bitterly, "I haven't thought about that yet, let's see how things go in the future! By the way, have you eaten yet? I just got my paycheck a few days ago and thought I'd treat you to a meal."

Gillian was all too familiar with her friend and knew that with her mom's illness, Stephanie probably couldn't afford the tuition, let alone pay for her mom's long-term medical expenses, so Gillian didn't say much more.

"With your little pay, it's not even enough to cover your mom's medical bills, do you really need to treat me when you come over... come on, let's go to the cafeteria together. I'm too lazy to go to class this afternoon, I'll show you around the campus."

"Sure thing~!"

The two of them, hand in hand, headed to the cafeteria.

Since Gillian's classmates had already finished eating and left, she got two more servings of food, and she and Stephanie began to eat.
