Chapter 829
"Nice to meet you. I''m Scarlette. What''s your name?" Scarlette introduced herself as Raeleigh
brought her back to their dorm after dinner.
Raeleigh reached out her hand to her too and said, "My name is Raeleigh Anson. You can call me
Raeleigh."
"I have no parents and I grew up in an orphanage. I managed to get in here with my results. What
about you?" Scarlette asked. Raeleigh paused for a moment. Although Raeleigh had a
grandmother, she also grew up in an orphanage. When she was ten years old, the orphanage she
lived in got burnt down due to a fire and her grandmother adopted her.

At that time, her grandmother had no issue supporting her but things changed after that.
"I got in here with my results too." Raeleigh didn''t want to say much on this topic because she didn''t
have the same personality as Scarlette. She was more introverted. Therefore, Raeleigh didn''t bring
up her past in the orphanage.
"I was wearing red clothes when I was left at the orphanage. Therefore, the orphanage''s caretaker
named me after it. What about you? Does your name mean anything specifically?" Scarlette asked.
Scarlette was the same age as Raeleigh. They were both 19 years old. However, Scarlette seemed
approachable, and she always had a smile on her face when she spoke, which brought a warm
feeling to people around her.
Raeleigh stared at Scarlette and answered briefly, "I''m not too sure how I got my name and I never
asked about it. I think your name is much better than mine. It sounds beautiful."
"I think so, too. Oh, how many people are there in our dorm?" Scarlette put down her luggage and
sat on the bed opposite of Raeleigh. Raeleigh looked around and said, "There were four of us here
and now that you''re here, it will be five of us. I''m not sure if one of us had gotten the wrong dorm
room number."
Raeleigh didn’t think much about it. Since Scarlette was new here, she wanted to help her out.
After all, gaining a new friend was better than gaining a new enemy.
"Do you think I got the wrong one?" Scarlette asked Raeleigh. Raeleigh looked into the room and
said, "The others aren''t back yet and I don''t think they will be back here tonight. If you don''t mind,
then you can share my bed with me tonight. I''ll bring you to the school office and check with the
teacher if this is fine. I have to take a trip there anyway to tell them that the other three students
aren''t back tonight."
"Alright, let''s go then. I''ll unpack when we get back," Scarlette replied. Then, the two of them went to
the school''s office and talked to a teacher on duty about their situation and also about the other
three students.
"You two can take a seat first. I''ll make a call to confirm about the situation." The teacher on duty
turned around and went off to make a call. She returned shortly after.
"Due to Raeleigh''s matter, the school had arranged the other three students to another dorm.
Scarlette enrolledte, so her dorm cement was taken by Raeleigh. Now that the dorm is cleared
out, Scarlette, you may live in the same room. I''ll help you register and Scarlette can move in
tonight. Later, there will be people over to move out the luggage of the other three students. You two
may go back now."
The teacher on duty exined the situation and Raeleigh felt relieved. If she were to remain
roommates with Quirina, then things would only get worse.
"We''ll be leaving then. Thank you, madam," Raeleigh said. Then, she turned around and headed
back to her dorm with Scarlette. Raleigh wondered about how Quirina was doing. The school was
extremely silent and no one was talking about the incident. She wondered if Quirina''s family thought
the incident was too embarrassing and had made sure that no one was talking about it in school.
Regardless, Quirina will eventually return. Even if she was admitted into a hospital right then, she
would be discharged eventually and find fault with Raeleigh.
Raeleigh thought about it as she walked. She waspletely lost in her thoughts and she had
forgotten about Scarlette who was walking alongside of her.
"Here we are." Scarlette reminded her as they reached the dorm entrance when Raeleigh was
about to walk into the door. Raeleigh came back to her senses and looked at Scarlette in a daze.
Then, she turned to the dorm entrance and responded, "Thank you."
"Why are you thanking me? You don''t have to be so polite with me, it feels off," Scarlette said. Her
eyes were glistening like the night stars. Raeleigh wasn''t surprised because she had never been
bothered about what people say about her. It didn''t matter because all she wanted was a simple life.
Her only wish was toplete her studies and work hard to build a happy life for her
grandmother.
"Why don''t you say anything?" Scarlette seemed to have a lot of questions to ask. Raeleigh figured
that she would no longer feel alone.
"I was thanking you out of habit. You might feel slightly weird about it because I have a different
personality from yours," Raeleigh answered calmly. Scarlette replied, "Isn''t this better? It''s better to
talk and get along. Come on, the room is waiting for us. Let me get my luggage, and we''ll get to
know each other better."
"Alright."
Raeleigh and Scarlette headed back to their room and before they stepped in, they could hear
someone in the room. Who could it be at that hour?
The two of them pushed open the door and walked in. They saw a few people inside packing things
up. From their clothes, it was easy to tell they were not from ordinary backgrounds.
The people noticed Raeleigh and Scarlette walking into the room and turned to look at them. One of
them scanned the two of them. She was displeased, but she did not say anything about it.
She was from the Moore family, and she was Quirina''s mother, Meica Wilson.
Meica had seen her daughter before she came to her dorm. Her daughter was beaten up badly and
Meica felt heartbroken.
She was scolded by Yousif due to this matter and he had never treated her this way.
Yousif''s other wives from the Moore family were all bullying her with their positions due to this
matter too.
The Moore family was a ce where one''s family background was highly valued. In the past few
years, she contributed a lot and worked hard. She had helped Yousif a lot. Not to mention, what
right did his wives have to challenge and humiliate her? She was the only one who was helping
Yousif with his business.
In the end, they were all ming her and backstabbing her. Johan had asked Quirina to leave the
Moore family, so that she would reflect on herself.
When Meica saw Raeleigh and Scarlette, she felt a strong sense of hatred in her heart but since
there were other people here, Meica could only force a smile on her face. It was only the beginning
of the show.
"You two must be Quirina''s schoolmates. I am her mother, and I''m here to pack up her things for her
today. Quirina had some conflict with one of her schoolmates today, and she had been admitted into
the hospital. She won''t being to school in the meantime."
"Which one of you is Raeleigh?" Meica asked in a straightforward manner. Raeleigh could sense
that things were not as simple as she thought.
