If she did like him...
When faced with Roger's pursuit, Stella would only respond with defensiveness and resistance.
Thinking about it, Roger was in for a miserable time.

The next day.
Charlotte went to campus early. She ran into Stella on the way, and they headed to the cafeteria for breakfast together.
It was peak dining hours, and the cafeteria was packed with students.
The two of them grabbed their food and looked around, but there wasn't a single empty seat.
Just as they were about to leave, someone in the crowd suddenly mentioned the name "Charlotte."
In an instant.
The noisy cafeteria fell dead silent. Everyone's gaze simultaneously darted toward her.
The very next second—
"Charlotte, let me carry your tray!"
"Charlotte, sit over here!"
"Charlotte, I'll go get soup for you!"
In a complete daze, Charlotte and Stella were ushered into their seats.
In less than two minutes, the long dining table was completely covered with specialty snacks.
The surrounding students stared at Charlotte with glowing eyes full of pure admiration, looking like they were dying to hand-feed her the food themselves.
The news of Charlotte discovering the cause and cure for the sleeping sickness had already spread across every major university.
Thanks to her, Kingswood University's reputation had skyrocketed once again.
It wasn't just the traditional medicine students. Students from every major walked around off-campus with their heads held high.
They practically wanted to tattoo "Kingswood University" onto their foreheads.
Single-handedly, Charlotte had elevated the prestige of every single program at the school.
With the semester ending soon and freshmen about to enroll, rumors said the admissions office's phone lines were practically melting down.
Because of this...
The students at Kingswood University had secretly given Charlotte a nickname: "The Mascot."
"Charlotte, take your time eating, no rush."
The student who stepped forward to speak was a senior. He turned to the crowd. "Charlotte doesn't like noise. Everyone, keep it down."
