Ivy had not expected to be told such a thing and did not know how to respond.
Just then, Robert sent her another message. [You can talk to him if you want. He's not a bad person. | just don't know what to say
to him since he keeps acting like he's being abandoned.]
[Is Layla close to him?] Ivy replied.
[They are friends, | guess! Layla doesn't like him that way. She thinks of him as a friend, but he obviously doesn't think so.]
After giving the matter sconsideration, Ivy texted Robert a reply. [He is outside my university. Since he is Layla's friend, |
guess | can meet him! Let's see if | can convince him to let this go.]
[I felt the sin the beginning, but | soon realized there was nothing | could do! If he keeps bothering you, block his number.]
[Sure. | will.]

An hour later, lvy arrived at the cafe where Andrew was waiting for her. They spotted each other immediately as Andrew was the
only foreigner there and Ivy was the only person who stared right at him the moment she stepped through the door.
He waved his hand at her and she hurried over to him.
"Hi, Ivy. I'm Layla's friend, Andrew. I'm not sure if your sister ever mentioned me," Andrew said with a smile.
Ivy shook her head. "My sister is in Cambrode."
"I know. It's a shame. | really like her, but | couldn't get her to likeback."
"I'm sure you have a lot of admirers as well, but you don't return their feelings, do you?"
Andrew felt as though the puzzle he had been struggling with all along had been solved by her simple statement.
"Do you think | still have hope to win Layla over?" he asked.
She studied his perfect face and said, "I think you already know the answer to that."
He burst out laughing. "You are even more straightforward than your sister."
She blushed sheepishly. "I thought | was already being subtle."
"Your expression is and so are your words, but the message behind it still hits right where it hurts."
"I just hope that | can help you," Ivy said sincerely.

Outside the cafe, someone was standing by the window, taking a picture of the two.
Half an hour later, Ivy ended the meeting with Andrew, and he politely escorted her out.
"It's fine. | don't want to have to explain this to my classmates." She waved him goodbye and hurried back to campus.
In the evening, the photo of Ivy and Andrew at the cafe appeared on the university forum. Ivy's face could be seen in the photo,
but the photo only captured Andrew's back.
Since the start of the semester, there was a poll that was going on on the forum to select the best-looking people from each course
the university had.
Ivy had never been on the forum, so she did not know that she was famous in the broadcasting major and ranked third for her
innocent, angelic looks. Therefore, when the picture of her with the foreigner was posted, the entire forum instantly erupted into
chaos.
