Chapter 108 Jenny couldnât help but scoff, âThereâs no need to be polite with you.
âJenny, I was wrong. I wonât complain if you blame me. But this time, I genuinely want to apologize to you.... Will you forgive me?â Claraâs tears streamed down her face.
Tiffany tugged at Jenny, who reluctantly sat back down.
âYou both know that the school has revoked my scholarship. My life is really difficult right now, and I canât always rely on my boyfriend... Iâm paying for this meal with my own hardâearned money,â Clara said. She bit her lip, looking extremely aggrieved.
Tiffany and Jenny had also heard about Claraâs scholarship being revoked. Their expressions softened slightly.
âIâll do anything you ask if you can forgive me. Jenny, I know youâve been through a lot lately. Iâm willing to tell the director that it was me who spread rumors on the bulletin board, and it had nothing to do with you. I just hope you wonât ignore me,â Clara pleaded.
Jenny turned her head away, perhaps because Claraâs words had moved her. After all, their relationship had been the closest over the past three years. They wouldnât have ended up like this if Clara hadnât thrown her under the bus in front of the program director last time, confirming her as the one spreading rumors.
âClara, weâll forgive you if you really go and tell the director that it was you who spread the rumors,â Tiffany said. She was more practical, and wouldnât just listen to Claraâs hollow promises.
Clara seemed determined and said, âOkay, Iâll go tell the director it was me who did that. I just hope youâll forgive me.â
The two stopped their sarcastic remarks after seeing Claraâs serious expression. Maeve couldnât help but raise an eyebrow as she witnessed this scene. It seemed that Clara still had some tricks up her sleeve. But lies were lies after all, and they would eventually be exposed.
Maeve asked with great concem, âI heard thereâs a jewelry banquet hosted by the Hacketts tonight?â
âYeah, seems like ke it,â âSheldon was indifferent to these events as long as Levi was in charge.
âI remember Jenny and Tiffany, their families own small businesses, right?â
âNot sure, Iâm not interested,â Sheldon said nonchalantly. He continued asking only because Maeve seemed interested in the matter, âAre you planning to investigate them?â
âNot really, I want to ask for your help,â Maeve said.
âYou need my help?â Sheldon rolled up his sleeves and asked, âDo you want me to stand up for you, or...?â
âI need you to have someone help me deliver two invitations.â
Sheldon was caught off guard, he frowned slightly, âJust that?â
âJust that.â
Maeve felt satisfied with this meal. Sheldon, on the other hand, felt extremely frustrated. As the second son of the Hacketts, he was asked for help just to deliver two banquet invitations?
Though it sounded that way, Sheldon had someone efficiently handle it in the afternoon.
In the evening, Maeve intentionally chose an evening dress for the banquet. The burgundy dress she wore wasnât extravagant or luxurious, but it was certainly eyeâcatching.
