My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 133

Apart from the Fletchers, she was probably the first student who did not receive any negative reviews.

The class representative sighed. Upon hearing that, the excited discussion earlier ceased and everyone suddenly became silent as they remembered Sophia. It was almost time for the lecture to start, but she was nowhere to be seen. What’s wrong? Has she been expelled?

The classroom, which was loud earlier, suddenly became deadly silent.

Suddenly, a voice rang. “What’s wrong? Why isn’t there any sound?”

Everyone rushed to her. “Sophia! You’re here!”

“Gosh, Sophia, this isn’t a dream, is it? You’re indeed here!”

“Where have you been for the past few days?”

Upon facing everyone’s questions, she did not reply to them and merely said, “Don’t worry, I haven’t been expelled. I’ll be studying with you in the future!”

As everyone surrounded Sophia, they began to chat with each other happily. The cohort seemed to have experienced a unity that never existed before. When everyone gathered, there seemed to be no difference between an average student and an elite student. At least they were one in that moment.

“Here, Sophia, this is for you.” The class representative passed the last copy of Company 49’s group photograph with Michael to Sophia. Looking at the image of her being edited into the picture, a warm feeling flowed through her heart.

News of her return spread like wildfire around the campus and everyone came to their lecture hall to take a peek at her before a live video soon appeared on the university’s forum.

Everyone knew that Sophia had received a military credit score of 0. Even though they would never be able to know the military credit score, they were aware that it would not be long until she was expelled due to her actions of offending the Edwards Family.

Some of Faye’s classmates had mentioned that she was not recovering well. Of course, she would not reveal the fact that Faye was undergoing a rhinoplasty to fix her crooked nose as a result of being punched. The surgery was rather difficult and on top of that, it was not done in Cethos, so she had to fly abroad for the procedure.

That piece of news had been exaggerated to the point where it sounded like Faye was on the brink of death and could die at any moment. However, regardless of that, the Edwards Family would never let Sophia off the hook.

In a nutshell, Sophia had landed herself in big trouble. Sooner or later, she would be expelled and the public was merely waiting for the time to arrive.

Xyla also never expected that Sophia would still show up on campus and deliberately called Faye to report this and test her reaction.

On the other side of the phone, Faye was heartbroken, yelling, “Sophia Edwards! I will never forgive her! Never! I want her to disappear from this world, sooner or later!”

Xyla had no idea what had exactly happened between them, but judging from Faye’s tone, she could not wait to devour Sophia alive. No matter what, Sophia can’t escape this time!

Everyone had been saying that Sophia would not be able to be in Bayside University for a long time. However, as the main character of the rumors, nothing seemed to have affected her. She continued to attend lectures on a daily basis and ride away on her Yamaha bike once classes were over.

Michael’s filming at Audistin had already concluded, but he went to different locations to film other scenes. Since he wouldn’t be returning home for some time, she lived like she was a free bird.

After returning to campus for a few days, her tanned skin was as fair as snow again, making her stand out from the crowd. On every occasion that she appeared, there were guys who looked in her direction.

However, no one dared to date her since she had many troublesome issues. Whoever became involved with her would be dragged into the mess as well.

Sophia was a loner in university as well. Occasionally, she would be seen hanging out with Nathan, but apart from him, she was never close with other guys.

As for her ex-boyfriend, Richard, everyone had noticed his actions—but in a different way.

She was constantly alone whereas Xyla and him were always together. They would arrive on campus together and head home together. No matter what class they had enrolled in, they clung together like a pair of Siamese twins.

As Kayla had broken her leg, she had been recuperating at the hospital, so the promised charity birthday party organized by the Harper Family was postponed.

A few days before her birthday, he went to Sophia’s lecture hall everyday to wait for her with Xyla accompanying him.

The weather in November had gradually turned cold. Wearing a white sleeveless top made from rabbit fur, Xyla held onto Richard’s arm as she spoke.

Even though he had now been waiting for Sophia for a few days, she was nowhere to be seen. Hence, he became impatient and annoyed, but Xyla said in a kindhearted yet naive tone, “Richard, let’s wait for a while more. The incidents that occured between the three of us were rather unhappy, so we need to straighten things out with her. Otherwise, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life. Since we’re getting engaged soon, without Sophia’s forgiveness, I really can’t be engaged to you.”

Richard touched her nose lightly with his insides becoming as soft as a marshmallow. “You are always so kind,” he said lovingly.

Moved by her, he couldn’t help himself but to hug her. Then, he said gently while caressing her long, soft hair, “It’s my greatest pleasure to meet a kind girl like you.”

“Richard, you are the best present that God has given me.”

When the crowd heard Xyla’s words, they thought, How disgusting!

Suddenly, a beautiful figure passed them by and he quickly took a few steps forward. “Sophia!”

Sophia had been revising for an entire afternoon, so she looked exhausted with her bare face. She looked at them as if they were strangers and simply asked, “What’s up?”

Xyla started to speak first. “Sophia, it’s our fault—mine and Richard’s—for everything that happened during the military training. I’m sorry for causing you to be grounded and expelled…”

Sophia was very busy at that time. As she slung her backpack over her shoulders, she wore her helmet for the bike. “Alright, I understand. I don’t blame you guys. I’m quite busy now, so I have to leave soon.”

Richard walked forward and grabbed her arms. “Sophia, can you give us more time? We need to clear some things with you.”

He could no longer tolerate her little plans. During the military training, she seemed to have created some rumors of them reconciling, making Xyla distrust him.

For example, Sophia’s hickeys that night. After knowing that he was in the medical bay, she had also deliberately stayed there for a night to intentionally create rumors to make Xyla sad. He knew that Sophia’s action was intentional and the reason why she did it was to reconcile with him.

He knew that she still wanted to be with him, but he was unable to stomach her tricks. She would run away everytime he and Xyla wanted to talk it out. To him, she was trying to create opportunities to hurt Xyla and destroy their relationship.
