The other trust-fund kids, spurred on by Max Garcia, turned to look at Alice (47) “So “this” is the chick who

dissed our business school? Brave girl,” sneered Chad (one of the rich kids), adjusting his designer sunglasses.

“Ugh, total country bumpkin, chimed in Brittany (another rich kid), sniffing the air disdainfully. You can practically

smell the ramen noodles on her.”

Max, a queen bee in a designer dress, sashayed up to Alice. “If you kneel and apologize right now, “in front

of everyone", we might consider letting your off the hook.

Across the hall, Chloe () smirked, delight dancing in her eyes. Alice had just ticked off the entire business school

school that accepts students who scored zero on the SATs is lowering its standards.”

Chloe's jaw dropped. This little nobody was actually “fighting back”?

Chloe, trying to salvage the situation, piped up, “Alice, you can look down on me, but don’t disrespect the

business school!”

Max, her voice dripping with arrogance, announced, “Everyone saw what happened! Freshman Alice just

The other students instantly scattered, creating a wide berth around Alice. Her roommate, Chloe (E), pulled her

Alice’s eyes were glacial.”l don’t care.”

She turned and walked away, completely ignoring them.

This unexpected act of defiance stunned everyone. Who would have thought she was so gutsy? She didn’t even

Max gritted her teeth, fury bubbling in her chest. She glared at Chloe and Chloe. “You're roommates with her,

right? Stay away from her, or I'll make your lives hell.” Chloe nodded frantically.

Chloe, feeling compelled to speak, stammered, “Alice... her parents died when she was young. She’s an orphan.

That's why she’s... like this.”

“So what? | gave her a chance! She blew it. Whose fault is that?” Max had never been treated with such

Chloe looked at Chloe in surprise.“Alice’s an orphan? So she'd truly cut ties with her wealthy family.

Chloe feigned a sigh.” Alice was always like this in high school. Always isolated. But she got away with it because

Noah's face paled.“Chloe? What are you doing here?”

Chloe's face flushed crimson.“Noah? What are “you” doing here?”

Chloe stammered, “My older brother... he said | didn’t need to retake the test. He said it's better to make
