"There were only eight spots, and she took one of them. It's only natural that we are all upset! We wouldn't say anything if she has
what it takes, but she doesn't and yet she dares to take a spot away from someone who does have what it takes! How shameless!"
the person said before leaving in frustration.
Meredith picked up her phone and saw Ivy's reply.
[I will work hard.]
"It looks like there really is more to the story," Meredith thought. "If Ivy isn't explaining how she got into the internship program, it
means that she is feeling guilty about it as well."
Just then, she recalled that her aunt had once tutored Ivy and worked at the television station, so her aunt might know more about
it.

Meredith immediately sent her aunt a message, asking if she knew anything about it as this was the first tthe station had ever
selected a first-year student as an intern.
Her aunt replied right away. [I don't know much about this! Had you not toldabout it, | wouldn't even know that she was
selected. Letask my friends in the station.]
Sometlater, she received another message from her aunt. [| asked around, but no one knows what is going on.]
[Maybe you can ask lvy.] Meredith suggested.
[She didn't say anything to me, so | don't think | should pester her about it.]
[You can congratulate her! If she is willing to tell you the details, that's great; if she doesn't want to, it's fine as well. All students in
the broadcasting major are going crazy right now. You know Ivy. She has an accent, so how can she work in the TV station?]
[She does have a bit of an accent, but it's not that bad. She is hard-working and passionate when ites to learning. She is also
very bright and can grasp any concept immediately once taught. | know how much she has progressed since then, but if she has
been working hard, she should be able to intern at the TV station without an issue.]
Meredith felt much better after talking to her aunt.
Ivy had hired her aunt as a tutor so that she could progress in her studies and that meant that she cfrom a wealthy
background, or that she was willing to place her resources in her education.
Ivy did not go to campus that day as the semester had ended, and after the exams, the winter holidays would begin.
Layla was going to move into Eric's house, so lvy called in sick to help; in truth, she was also curious about Eric's house.
Once she knew where Eric lived, she would be able to visit Layla whenever she wanted.

Layla had plenty of personal belongings, so she simply hired a mover service.
Once the movers transported her belongings to their destination, they would categorize the items and separate them, so all Layla
needed to do was supervise them.
Ivy stood next to Layla and watched the movers.
Two hours later, everything had been moved in, and the staff left after Layla paid them.
The house instantly fell into silence, and Ivy said with a smile, "Eric has a nice house."
"Are you busy today? You kept looking at your phone," Layla said.
"The list of interns accepted has been announced, and since | am the only first-year student who was selected, everyone is talking
aboutat school." Ivy thought that she would be able to ignore all the gossip on campus, but in the end, it still affected her.
"Don't care about what they say. The winter holidays areing, right? Once you start the internship and everyone sees what you
are capable of, they will shut up. | believe in you," Layla said.
