Veronica wanted to stop Ste, but Ste had already run far away.
Ste was not tall. She was always left behind in a running ss. Unexpectedly, she was running quite fast now. After Ste left, Veronica had to face the boy alone.
The boy was Justin Bernard, a second-year student in their foreignnguage department.
When Justin was just a freshmanst year, Veronica represented the student union to wee new students.
At that time, the student council member in charge of Justin could not help Justin because of somethingst-minute. Veronica had just finished helping a student. Seeing that the member was busy, she took over his work and took Justin to go through all the admission procedures.
They were in the same department, so it was inevitable to meet. Every time Justin saw her, he woulde over and say hello.
Later on, Justin often showed up beside Veronica.
Veronica had lunch at school. At the time her sses finished, the canteen was always crowded. Every time Justin would line up for her so Veronica could get to order directly.
He would show up when she needed to carry heavy stuff inside of the Student Union too.
So, over time, Ste called Justin the warm-hearted junior.
Although Justin was a junior, he and Veronica were the same year. He was even born a few months earlier than Veronica. Yet he still regarded her as a senior since she entered the university one year earlier than him.
Veronica was not a fool. She knew that Justin couldn''t be acting so attentively only because she had helped him on the first day of school.
At this time, Justin, who had just finished ying basketball, smelled masculine. He was tall, outgoing, and handsome. Many girls were attracted.
He handed over a bottle of mineral water to Veronica with a smiling face.
"Veronica, this is the water I just bought. I bought an extra bottle and just happened to pass by here, take it!" Justin smiled.
Under the afternoon sun, Justin''s smile was a little bewitching.
Veronica looked at the water in Justin''s hand, surprised.
She pointed to her nose. "For me?"
Justin nodded.
Veronica frowned and said, "Right now, everyone in the school knows that ourpany is bankrupt and I''m kicked out from home. If they see you getting close to me, they might judge you too. You should stay away from me!"
Justin, on the other hand, did not seem to care.
"You are an individual! No one should judge you ording to your family. You are always the best in my eyes." Justin looked sincerely at Veronica.
Justin''s words moved Veronica.
In school, other than Ste, only Justin was sincere with her.
However, although Justin was sweet to her, Veronica didn''t have feelings for Justin.
Fate didn''t make them for each other, maybe.
Veronica frowned and said as usual, "Justin, you''d better stay away from me. I..."
Justin knew what Veronica was about to say. He immediately interrupted her.
"Veronica, don''t overthink. I just happened to have bought an extra bottle of water. I''m going back to y basketball now. Goodbye Veronica. Tomorrow is Saturday. I wish you a happy weekend!" With that, Justin turned and ran away.
Watching Justin''s back, Veronica was kind of speechless.
She could do nothing but watch him leave.
Veronica looked at the water in her hand and sighed. She went on walking with it.
However, a few steps away, she saw a car parked beside the road.
It looked familiar.
She wondered, ''Isn''t that Raymond''s car?This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.
Why would it be here?''
She tilted her head and looked into the car. At a nce, she saw Raymond, who was sitting in the driver''s seat and looking at her.
For some reason, Veronica suddenly felt as if she had been caught in an affair.
The evidence was the mineral water, which suddenly became a burden. She subconsciously hid the mineral water behind her back so Raymond wouldn''t see it.
Raymond, who was sitting in the car, drove away seeing that.
Watching Raymond drive away, Veronica felt strange.
''Why was Raymond here?
Cars are not allowed to enter the campus. How did he get in?
Weird.''
She didn''t have time to think about it. After leaving the school building, Veronica quickly went to the subway station not far from the school gate and took the subway to the trantion office. Because it was very close to the date of the sry distribution, after hearing what happened to Veronica''s family, the boss of the trantion firm quickly paid Veronica''s sry.
To express her gratitude, Veronica helped trante some old documents, then left the office.
By the time she left the trantion office, it was already close to six o''clock.
Veronica called Marie, their cook, and asked her to save some food for herself. Then she bought something and went back by bus.
Because of the traffic jam, Veronica spent an hour in transit. When she arrived home, it was already seven o''clock.
The first thing Veronica did after returning to the vi was returned the bus card to Louis as well as the money she had spent. Louis refused to ept the money. Yet Veronica insisted that he took it.
Veronica gave Louis a pair of frames.
Louis''s sses had long been broken, but he did not have the time to change them into a new frame, so he fixed them with tape. Veronica noted down the model of Louis''s sses and bought a new pair of sses frame for Louis. All he needed to do was to change into it. Louis was extremely happy to receive the gift from Veronica.
For Marie, Veronica brought a bag of Kiwis. Marie had high blood sugar and kiwis should be helpful.
Seeing the kiwis that Veronica had bought for her, Marie cooked a bowl of noodles for Veronica specifically.
When Veronica was about to eat the noodles, a gloomy voice suddenly came from outside the kitchen door. "Veronica, I hire you to be a servant. How dare you ask Marie to serve you?"
