Chapter 51

Olivia took the subway to school the next day and received a call fromSophie on the way.

“Olivia! Check the school forum now!” Sophie sounded anxious, andOlivia wondered what had happened.

As she was about to log into the campus network, she received a textthat left her frozen: “So shameless!”

Staring at the message, Olivia had a sinking feeling that something hadgone wrong. Logging into the forum, she saw a headline that alarmedher.

“Tide University's student is allegedly a sugar baby! Check out thepictures!”

With trembling hands, she clicked into the photo album.

The pictures showed Tyler dropping her off at school, and they were ofhigh quality. Olivia's face was clearly visible, but Tyler was not seen inany of them, as he always remained inside the car.

The only evidence of his presence was a photo of his hand, wearing awatch, holding onto Olivia's wrist. However, it was enough proof that itwas a man's hand, not a student's.

Sophie continued to panic on the phone. “Say something, Olivia!What's up with the news?! Who was the man in the car?!”

Olivia couldn't regain her composure as she stared at the headline.She felt like she was standing on the edge of a cliff, ready to fall at anymoment.

“Olivia? Are you still there?”

It took her a while to snap back to reality. She blinked and responded,“I'm listening.”

Sophie bombarded her with questions. “Who was that? How did youget photographed ? Didn't you say that you've been staying at home?Why did a man send you to school?”

Olivia was overwhelmed by the questions, not knowing where to beginwith her answers.

“Your reputation will be ruined if this blows up, Olivia!” Sophie warned.In response, Olivia simply said, “I know, Sophie,” and hung up. Peoplearound her were staring and discussing the news.

“She's the sugar baby. I'm shocked,” she heard from the whispers ofher classmates.

Closing her eyes, she clutched her phone tightly, as if it could relievethe pressure building within her.

She walked away from the prying eyes, intending to go to class as ifnothing had happened. But the stares continued, and she couldn'tescape the whispers.

After walking for some time, Sophie caught up with her and stoppedher. “What exactly happened, Olivia? Tell me.”

Olivia didn’t say anything, unsure of how to explain.

Sensing that something was amiss, Sophie grabbed her arms andshook her. “Is he really your sugar daddy?”

“N-No,” Olivia denied.

“Then who was the man in the picture?” Sophie asked, growing moreanxious.

Olivia's lips moved, but she hesitated to speak.

Sophie stared intently at her until Olivia finally admitted, “It's Tyler."Chiches
