Chapter 282
Melody whipped out her phone and dialed Carly’s number. When the latter heard about Hailey getting stood up at the cinema and even rushed back in the rain, she burst out laughing.
“This is so funny. So what if she’s the daughter of the Lamberts? It’s her fault for being ugly. Melody, you’re amazing. Ewan has absolutely fallen for you.
Melody smirked. “Relax, Carly. There Il be more interesting stories tomorrow.”
Carly commented, “Serves Hailey right for hanging out with Celine and getting in our way. This will teach her a lesson.
“I’ll be waiting for your good news, Melody.” “All right, Carly.”
Celine got back to the dormitory late that night. The room was pitch black. Thinking Hailey had not returned, Celine assumed Hailey was having a great
time
When Celine reached out to turn on the lights, she spotted a figure curled up on the bed. Hailey had returned and was already asleep.
Perplexed, Celine said, “Hailey, you’re back. Did you have fun with Ewan?”
With her back facing Celine, Hailey answered, “I did. I’m tired, Celine. I’m getting some sleep first.”
Placing the blanket properly over Hailey, Celine said, “All right. Good night.”
With that, Celine picked up her pajamas and left to take a shower. Meanwhile, Hailey remained curled up in bed, her face wet with tears.
By the time Hailey woke up, Celine had already left. The former cried so much that both her eyes were swollen.
When Hailey got up from the bed to get washed, someone rapped anxiously on the door.
“Coming,” Hailey said
The second she opened the door, she froze. Standing at the door was Ewan. He had come to the female dormitory to look for her.
Hailey wondered if he was there to apologize because she was not planning on forgiving him.
“Why are you here?” asked Hailey,
Eyeing her with a grim expression, Ewan questioned, “Why did you send people to beat Melody up?”
Hailey was stunned. “Melody was beaten up?”
“Yes. They beat her up and even warned her to not mess with you next time,” said Ewan.
Snapping out of her shock, Hailey replied, “I didn’t send anyone to beat Melody up.”
Refusing to believe her, Ewan scolded disgustedly, “I can’t believe you’re so evil. I’m warning you, don’t you dare mess with Melody again in the future.”
Hailey let out a bitter laugh. She thought Ewan had come to make it up to her, but he was only there to seek justice for Melody.
Hailey never sent anyone to beat Melody up. The only possibility was that Melody planned all that to frame Hailey. However, instead of believing Hailey, her fiance was siding with Melody.
“Ewan, you never liked me, right?” Hailey finally asked.
Staring at Hailey’s birthmark, Ewan said, “Look in the mirror. How could I like a face like that? You’re not worth comparing to Melody.”
Hailey felt as if her heart were tearing into pieces. Both Ewan and Melody were the most popular students in the university. They were practically made for reach other. Hailey did not understand why Ewan still pursued her.
“Ewan, you pursued me first. You were the one who said I was pretty-
Ewan instantly interrupted her with a disgusted tone, “Don’t be so naive, Hailey. Did you think I’d say that if you weren’t the daughter of the Lamberts?
“It’s my parents who want me to marry you. In reality, I don’t even like you. But thanks to you, I can’t even pursue the woman I like. You’re just an ugly
