Everything was settled at this point, so it was impossible for Ivy to quit. She nodded and said, "From the moment I agreed to take the internship, I knew that this would happen."


    "If you are that horrible at it, your tutor would have never suggested that you intern at the station. The people who speak ill of you behind your back only do so because they don''t know you; even if they do know you in person or find out your identity, they might still do the same. You need to understand that no matter what you do or how well you do it, there will be people who dislike you," La said, consoling her. "The first step of growing up is to stay strong."


    "Have you been through this, La?"


    "Of course. Unlike you, since I was a little girl, everyone knew who I am. I''m Elliot Foster''s daughter, which is why it never mattered what I did. Even if I earned my ce, people would always say that I aplished it because of my dad." La did not feel a thing mentioning this. "We live for ourselves, not for others. Just make sure that you are content. Your ssmates will only be in your life for this stage of your life. Once you graduate, you might not ever see them again."


    "Yeah."


    "What your ssmates think doesn''t matter. Just work hard and only work for your tutor''s approval."


    "You are right, La." Ivy felt the weight on her shoulders lifting. "Are you going to pick Eric up?"


    "Depends on when the nurse arrives." La took out her phone to call the nurse. "Once the nurse is here, we will go pick Eric up together."


    Ivy nodded.


    Shortly after the phone call, the nurse arrived.


    "I''m so sorry, Ms. Tate! My daughter sent me here, and she hasn''t been here before, so the navigation system took us to a different area."


    The nurse was a middle-aged woman in her forties.


    "It''s fine. I will take you to meet his parents," La said before turning to Ivy. "You should stay here. We will be back soon."


    Ivy nodded.


    "If you get sleepy, just go take a nap in my room," La said. "Or you can just walk around. He is the only one in this house most of the time anyway." "Sure. La, go pick Eric up!"


    Once La was gone, Ivy started chatting with the nurse. "Eric has a nice house."


    The nurse chuckled. "Of course, he has to buy a nice house if he is living in it. Idols earn a lot, especially ones as famous as he is. I bet he earns even more than entrepreneurs, and his wealth is beyond our imagination."


    Ivy was shocked.


    "Naturally, he earned every penny of it. He is handsome and talented, so no one is more worthy," the nurse continued.


    "Say, why didn''t Mom and Dade? I thought that they would be here as well!" Ivy was slightly confused.


    The nurse thought about her


    question and tried to exin their absence, vy, you are still too young to know what it feels like to be a parent. You will know how painful it is to watch your child leave the nest once you have your own children."


    Ivy processed her words and nodded. "My parents will probably be more upset when La marries Eric, then."Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    "It will be better by then. Today is the day your sister officially moves out of the house. If everything goes well, she will be staying here for the rest of her days." The nurse smiled. Your parents still have you and Robert, so don''t worry."


    "Wouldn''t they feel really lonely when Robert and I move out eventually?" Ivy muttered.


    "Of course, they would be! But I''m sure they would also be happy if you find a great partner."


    Ivy nodded and murmured, "I don''t want to leave Mom and Dad."


    "It''s logical to think so, Ivy. If you want to livefortably for the rest of your life, it''s best to stay by your parents'' sides," the nurse said. "Your parents are wealthy and love you to bits. No one else would love you as they do."
