Ivy remembered her mother mentioning that they would not close the boy's factory down.
[Why are you asking? Are you going to do something to our factory again? I've already apologized! | uploaded your photo on the
foreigner!]
Furious, Ivy shivered and gritted her teeth.
Layla had always told her that she was too soft-hearted and that people would bully her for it.
Ivy realized that the only reason that the boy had been this daring was that she had been too kind. She took a deep breath, took a
screenshot of her conversation with him, and posted it on the group chat. She included a message along with it.
[If I'm really capable of closing down a factory, | would never have been harassed by this guy to begin with. This is over, and | want
to remind everyone to watch who you are friends with.]

After sending the message to the group chat, Ivy felt much better. However, she hesitated when she was about to delete the boy's
number.
She had thought that he would shout at her after what she said in the group, but to her surprise, he did not utter a single word.
Everyone in the major department knew who he truly was and might hate him for it, but he had asked for it.
Ivy had regained herposure by the tshe got home, and since she had resolved the matter, she did not intend to tell her
parents about it. Since Elliot and Avery were not in the habit of checking the university website, they would not find out about what
had happened.
"lvy, are you hungry? Dinner is ready." Avery hurried over to take Ivy's bag from her.
Avery would always ask if she was hungry every tshe returned home.
"A little. We had gym class today."
"Okay. Let's start without your dad, then." Avery pulled Ivy into the dining room.
"Is Dad working overttonight?"
"I called him just now, and he said he just needs to handle a few things. He won't be out for long," said Avery. "How's school
today?"
Ivy proceeded to describe everything that happened that day to her mother.
The two would share conversations like this every tshe returned hfor dinner. Ivy enjoyed every moment of it and felt
encouraged because she got to revise what she had learned that day while talking to her mother.
A while later, Ivy's phone rang, and she noticed that it was from her department head.

Sensing that she was contacted to discuss matters concerning the forum post, she said, "Mom, | need to answer this call. It's from
my lecturer."
Avery nodded and Ivy walked to the living room to answer the call.
"lvy, about the university forum. | immediately briefed my superior on the incident, and they found the students who posted the
inappropriatements. We have contacted them and warned them respectively.
"As for Mr. Marcus Whitney, we have given him a stern talking to, and he has reflected on his mistakes. He will apologize to you
soon. We've also adjusted his schedule so you won't have to see him again. I'm sorry about this! If another boy harasses you again,
you can tellright away, and | will deal with it."
"Thank you!"
"It's fine. That's our responsibility as university management. Have you told your parents?"
"No. There's no point to let them know now that it's resolved," Ivy said when she saw Avery walking over to her.
