Chapter 100
| felt nothing but extrawkwardness in the face of their applause.
If I had known I'd be exposed under such circumstances, | would have chosen to reveal my identity right off the
bat. Now, all my efforts were for naught.
| wasted all my thiding away and still got found out. In the end, | could only follow the host and approach the
stage.
The seven donors and their friends were already on stage. Oddly, the ones who were receiving the highest
honor, Georgina and Martin, were shoved to the side. Meanwhile, Louis and Veronica had forced their way to the
center of the stage.
The two could only stare atdumbly, unable to get a word out.
"Excuse me, could you please move aside?" The host furrowed his brows in displeasure upon seeing Louis and
Veronica.
Ever since they got on stage, they had been deliberately pushing others aside just to be in the limelight. The
host was most probably fed up with their behavior.

Now that a bigger fish was onstage, the host immediately used this opportunity to chase them away.
Alas, Louis and Veronica refused to move away. Instead, they continued squishing everyone else aside. That was
because they would be relegated to the edge of the stage if they were to move. Who knew whether their
pictures would be taken then?
Sadly, the students standing next to them weren't about to allow their moment of glory to be taken either. The
tension between students only grew further as none refused to back down.
The host inhaled deeply and finally felt his patience snap. He grabbed Veronica's shoulder and said, "Miss, please
move aside."
Then, he wasted no tdragging Louis out before turning towith a smile. "Mr. White, please stand here.
The certificates will be handed out soon and your pictures will be taken."
| hid the amusement on my face and stood in my assigned spot.
Louis' jaw was slack and his eyes wide as he stood before me. He parted his lips, seemingly about to hurl abuse
at Felicia and me. However, he didn't dare to do

Veronica stood next toand her face was as crimson as a tomato. Suddenly, she whispered meekly, "I didn't
know you donated that much, William. Why didn't you say so earlier? Everyone misunderstood you because of it.
Why don't | treat you to supper to make up for it?"
Then, she whisked out her phone. "Why don't you giveyour number?"
I instantly rolled my eyes at her in absolute disgust. Then, | turned to the host and said, "I see everyone has
brought a friend along. Can my girlfriend jointo receive the certificate?"
The host nodded obligingly. "Of course!"
| swept my gaze across the crowd below.
My head was elsewhere when the host draggedup on stage. As a result, | accidentally forgot about Felicia. |
couldn't help but wonder whether she had left.
Fortunately, | finally found her in the last row after scanning the crowd for a good long while.
The silly girl was still clapping in her seat, her gaze focused entirely on me. When her gaze met mine, we
couldn't help but smile at each other.

| took the host's microphone and said, "Felicia, cup here."
Those words had just fallen from my lips when everyone turned to look at Felicia.
It was obvious that Felicia didn't think I'd invite her on stage. She stared atdumbly as her body tensed. Then,
she slowly got to her feet and walked toward
me.
"Oh, my. Is she his girlfriend? She's gorgeous."
"They're both hotties! They're a match made in heaven!"
"That cute guy totally loves his girlfriend. God, why can't | have a boyfriend like that?"
Shortly after, Felicia made it on stage. She had a bashful look on her face as she appeared before me. Alas, the
spot next towas taken.
The host had no choice but to turn to Veronica and say, "Miss, can you please move?"
Veronica's face went white with embarrassment and frustration. She had put in all the effort just to get on stage
with Louis, even going as far as to fight for the best spot. Yet, she had to give her coveted spot to the person she
envied most.
There was no way she could handle such humiliation!
