In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO

Chapter 48

Thank God that girl knows her place. She doesn’t deserve to sit here.

Skylar entered the bus, using her earphones to cancel all the noise surrounding her.

She was a transfer student, so she didn’t have friends or even anyone to talk to during classes.

This isn’t the university life I was looking forward to. Sheesh… What a bore.

Despite everyone sharing the same bus, their chat group was now abuzz. Lydia had taken screenshots of a university’s forum thread and sent them to the group.

Right before that, Skylar was kicked out of the group.

Lydia: Our class is a hot topic now. University girl becomes a sugar daddy and homewrecker? Check out these pictures! Don’t they look familiar to you guys?

Shailene: Isn’t that Skylar? Well, I’m not surprised. You boys must be devastated to see how trashy your innocent goddess actually is. She was faking it all this while.

Harry: These are fake, aren’t they? Why would Skylar still be using an iPhone 4 if she’s a sugar baby?

Colin: LOL, she’s already upgraded to an iPhone 12. Getting screwed around at this age? That’s disgusting.

Lydia: The medical records say she has a severe case of syphilis. Whoever shares a room with her tonight is going to get infected.

On the other hand, Skylar had been taking a nap and had woken up only when they arrived at North Beach. She had no idea that her classmates had been gossiping about her all this while.

Everyone seemed to cast glances at her when she alighted the bus.

She took a tiny mirror out of her purse. Is there something on my face?

Seeing people stare at her and whisper among themselves gave her a bad feeling.

The university had booked a three-star hotel as accommodation. There were many vacation hotels in this area.

Right next to their three-star accommodation was King Hotel.

Skylar just found out that King Hotel was a six-star hotel under Ford Group, but it wasn’t open to the public.

Only employees were allowed to stay there, and it smelled like nothing but cash just from its magnificent exterior.

Mr. Duggan, the instructor in charge of the trip, began to assign students to their respective rooms and have them put their luggage away.

Skylar heard her name being called. She was to share a room with Lynn Holley.

As she took her room’s key card from Mr. Duggan, Lynn, who was always known for being soft-spoken, suddenly came forward.

“I don’t want to share a room with Skylar, Mr. Duggan. She has a contagious disease.” Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Skylar’s lips twitched. I have a contagious disease that I myself had no idea about?

Some classmates burst into laughter upon hearing Lynn’s complaint.

Some even teased her. “Thanks for sharing a room with Skylar, Lynn! You just saved everyone else from having to do that.”

Lynn covered her eyes with the back of her hand and began to cry, her shoulders trembling.

At that instant, Skylar felt utterly embarrassed. Have I done something wrong?

She even lifted her arms to sniff herself, but all she smelled was a mild fragrant scent. I don’t stink at all!

So why are they treating me like a plague?

Still, she asked Lynn courteously, “May I ask why you didn’t want to share a room with me?”

Lynn looked up with tears in her eyes. “Because you’re filthy. You have an STD!”

Mr. Duggan immediately cleared his throat, feeling awkward to learn about his students’ private matters.

Skylar cursed internally. Who the f*ck’s been spreading such bullsh*t? If I did have an STD, Tobias would kill me!

It’s true that I’ve been doing it more often these days, but it’s not like I’ve been sleeping with more than one guy!

A look of despair flashed in her eyes. “You don’t have to share a room with me if you don’t want to, but why are you slandering me like that? I don’t have any disease.”

Lynn looked completely distraught and began to negotiate with Skylar. “Let me off, please. I don’t want to be in the same room as you. We’re not the same. I haven’t had a boyfriend yet.”

Not wanting to dwell on this matter any longer, Skylar turned to Mr. Duggan. “Can I change rooms?”

Mr. Duggan clapped his hands to get all the girls’ attention. “Any girls here willing to share a room with Skylar?”
