Chapter 294
Celine snorted derisively when she heard those words. These few days, Melody had been constantly causing problems for Halley, Carly must have had a hand in that too.
They were planning on humiliating Halley tomorrow? It still hadn’t been determined who would be the one humiliated yet,
Celine returned to the females hostel. Halley was just about to go out with Declan’s black jacket in her arms when Celine stopped her.
“Hailey, wait a minute.”
Hailey had been planning on taking Declan’s jacket to the dry cleaners. She stopped in her tracks.
“What is it, Celine?
Celine took out a colorful candy. “Hailey, this is for you.”
Hailey loved sweet foods, so she happily took the colorful candy and put it into her mouth. “Thank yo
Hailey immediately tried to spit the bitter candy out of her montiu
you… Ah! It’s bitter.”
However, Celine covered her mouth. “Don’t spit it out! The most bitter medicine is often the most effective. Quick. Swallow it‘
Hailey could only swallow the bitter candy, “Celine, what’s this? Why is it so bitter?”
Celine looked at Halley’s pretty face under the birthunark and winked mysteriously. “It’s a secret. You’ll find out tomorrow.”
“I’ll get going then” With that, Hailey ran off.
Halley dry–cleaned Declan’s black jacket, folded it, and put it into a bag before going to the classroom to look for Declan.
“Hey there. I’m looking for someone” Hailey stopped a male student.
The student looked at Halley. “Are you looking for Declan?”
Hailey was surprised. “How did you know?” She hadn’t said anything yet.
The student laughed. “Many girls come to our class looking for Declan. We’re all used to
Was Declan that popular?
Even though Declan and Ewan were the two best–loolding men at Yorhine University, Declan was comparatively more under the radar as compared to Ewan. Furthermore, Declan wasn’t seen often in school.
Despite all that, many girls still came to him
“Then is Declan around? I have something for him.”
The classmate shook his head. “Declan hasn’t come to school for a few days. He must have been working.”
Hailey was stunned.
“You should have heard about Declan’s family’s financial status before. His father had passed away a long time ago, and his mother’s blind. He has a younger sister too, who’s just started junior high.
“Declan’s grades are really good. He was the district’s top scorer in the college entrance exam, and Yorhino University only got him because it offered him full scholarship
“However, he still needed to take care of his family, so he stepped into society and started working early on.
“If you’re looking for him, you can try going to his home.”
Hailey had only heard before that Declan’s father was a drug dealer, but she hadn’t known about his blind mother or younger sister,
“Then can you tell me where Declan’s home is?”
“It’s at the Third Shanty.”
“Thank you ”
Hailey planned on going to look for Declan, but before that, she went to the supermarket to buy a few expensive supplements before taking an Uber to
Third Shanty
Third Shanty was leated in the slum area, which was dark and wet. It was Halley’s first time stepping foot in an area like this, as she lived in Mercity’s most expensive housing area, Francis Court. The difference between the two places was like heaven and earth.
Hailey held the luxurious gift box in her hands as she searched for his house according to the address she was given. It had just rained, and the muddy ground of the alleys dirtied the len of her skirt and her leather shoes.
Halley usually kept herself clean and tidy, but she suppressed her urge to wipe the ad ott as
Inally found Declan’s home
