Chapter 155 The Gorgeous Fairy
Eloise followed her gaze and saw that Andrew had indeed arrived. She said while holding her chin, "Maybe Andrew finally compromised?"
Cecilia shrugged. "Honestly, if I had a mother like that, I would have depression."
Charlotte curiously asked, "Why?"
Cecilia thought momentarily and said, "Andrew and I have been classmates since elementary school. I remember one weird thing. In elementary school, it was the time for children to explore their interests. Andrew liked art very much at that time and wanted to be a wandering painter or something. When his mother found out, instead of hitting him, she locked him in a dark room for several days. After that, Andrew never mentioned being a painter again and obediently learned music and calligraphy."
Eloise whispered, "I once heard my mother say that Rachel is not treating him as her son. Some parents who couldn't go to college themselves force their children to go to college. Rachel is that kind of person. She comes from a low background, so she desperately tried to ingratiate herself with Elizabeth and used all means to make her son completely assimilate into our circle. Sometimes...I feel sorry for Andrew. His mother never treated him like a son but rather like some project."
"Andrew has always been an outstanding boy, no matter what he does. But he can't fight for what he likes."
Charlotte bit her pen and didn't know what to say.
Nicholas reached out and took the pen from her hand. "You're still biting your pen at this age?"
Charlotte smiled awkwardly.
Eloise immediately covered her face with her hand. "No! Char, you can't smile right now!"
Charlotte was confused. "Why?"
Eloise said firmly, "Your smile makes me want to kiss you... Ah, you're so beautiful. I'm afraid I'll turn lesbian."
Cecilia held her arm and looked at Charlotte with an examining gaze. Her fair and radiant skin, delicate facial features, innocent and sweet smile...
Cecilia rubbed her forehead and thought, 'What a gorgeous little fairy!'
"Nicholas has seen a lot," Eloise said as she leaned on the table. "Look at him! Not surprised at all!"
Nicholas gave a faint, lazy smile, lips slightly curled. "You think I'm not surprised? What if I'm just not showing it?"
Eloise said, "I believe you're different from a superficial guy like me, Nicholas."
Nicholas replied, "Sorry, but I'm letting you down."
Eloise was left speechless.
Charlotte adjusted her hat and whispered, "Maybe I should wear a mask to school from now on..."
Eloise immediately said, "It's your charming face; why can't you show it? Don't hide it; some people would think they're better looking than you are."
She glanced meaningfully at Cassidy as she spoke.
Cassidy was browsing the Campus Network. Someone had previously claimed that those candid photos were Photoshopped, but those voices disappeared completely after Charlotte came to school today. They were replaced by various open images, with shameless flatterers praising Charlotte's beauty.
Cassidy felt annoyed and restless.
So what if Charlotte looked good? That did not change the fact that she was an illegitimate child. These people were so shallow!
Cecilia had been worried that Charlotte's desk would be filled with love letters. At lunchtime, someone stopped Charlotte and confessed his feelings to her. He finally managed to say "I like you" stutteringly, but before Charlotte could respond, he blushed and ran away.
Charlotte looked at Cecilia confusedly and asked, "Was he asking for directions just now? Why did he suddenly run away?"
