Chapter 316 Meeting her again
"Hi, dear, nice to meet you. I'm Abella's father!"
"And I'm Abella's mother," Mrs. Medici also appeared before them, her smile elegant and charming.
The girls were awestruck by their grace. No wonder they had such a beautiful daughter!
It was clear they came from a wealthy family.
"We're all in the same dormitory by fate. Abella, didn't you bring something to share with your roommates? It's in luggage number nine..."
Before coming, Mrs. Medici had labeled each suitcase with a number and sent a list of the contents to Abella's phone.
Abella opened suitcase number nine and generously offered, "Take whatever you want."
The girls were amazed at the unfamiliar brands of snacks, their packaging alone looked expensive...
And the fruits, several of which they had never seen before...
Undoubtedly, she was from a wealthy family!
Abella thought they were too shy to take anything, so she picked up some snacks and handed them over.
"Here, don't be shy."
"Thank you..."
The girls couldn't help but admire how cool Abella was, even when giving things away. They felt the gap between them and Abella was huge.
"This is your dorm?" Mrs. Medici looked around and nodded, smiling, "It's quite nice, small but complete..."
One of the girls' eyes widened. This dorm already outdid others nationwide, and it was even bigger than her own home...
But to Mrs. Medici, it was considered small??
Oh, how big was their house...
With that thought, the girl felt a blow to her self-esteem.
"Abella, go chat and have some snacks with your roommates..."
Mrs. Medici entered her daughter's room and, with the help of the drivers, made the bed for her...
The girls could tell Mrs. Medici was a lady of leisure, never having to lift a finger at home.
"Mom, leave the luggage. I'll sort it out myself later."
Hearing this, Mrs. Medici felt reluctant, stroking her daughter's head, "If you need anything or lack anything, call me. Come home if you're available over the weekend..."
"Okay."
"Take good care of yourself..." Mrs. Medici's voice quivered with emotion, finding it hard to let go.
The girls quickly reassured her, "Auntie, don't worry, we'll take good care of your daughter!"
"Thank you..."
After the Medicis left, the girls relaxed and chatted with Abella.
"Abella, your family seems very wealthy..."
"It's okay," Abella replied nonchalantly.
"Everyone in your family is so well-mannered... You have good manners too, and your skin is so nice!"
"How do you manage to get perfect grades and maintain such good skin? What skincare products do you use?"
Before they could finish, the door was pushed open.
A particularly confident and beautiful girl entered. Upon seeing Abella, she rushed over and hugged her, "I'm so glad we're in the same dorm!"
She had promised to her grandpa Wilson over and over again that she would take good care of Abella...
And she had fought for this privilege.
"It’s so hot." Abella's tone was slightly disdainful, but her eyes were smiling.
Clare smiled brightly, then turned to the other two girls, "Hi, nice to meet you! I'm Clare, Abella's friend."
The girls didn't expect another eye-catching girl to join them, and she was the top scorer's friend...
"So, your grades are good too?"
"Hello, I'm Josie, nice to meet you."
"I'm Joanna, we're friends from now on!"
...
The four girls gathered and laughed together. After a while, Abella's phone rang.
"Oh my, my dear, why haven't you come yet? My neck's stretching longer than a giraffe's... Are you satisfied with the dorm environment?"
"It's nice." Abella hadn't expected the old man to give her the top floor with a fantastic view, "I'll be there soon."
"I'll wait for you in the principal's office..." Principal Wilson chuckled and hung up.
Abella saw messages from Phillipe and Blake on WhatsApp, all asking about her new college and classmates and if she was settling in well.
Abella snapped a photo of her room and sent it back, adding, "Everything's great."
"How about we go buy some drinks? It's so hot! I saw a lot of shops in the university town, let's go check them out?" Clare suggested.
The other two girls still had to unpack, so they couldn't go.
Clare pulled Abella along, "Then we'll bring something back for you! What do you want?"
"No, thank you. That's okay." The girls were too embarrassed to take advantage of her.
But Clare was generous and didn't care about the small expense.
The university town's commercial street had been refreshed, with graffiti on the walls that looked trendy.
Abella accompanied Clare for a while, and just as they were about to return, she inadvertently spotted a familiar figure.
Clare was surprised, "Isla??"
How could she still dare attend university?
Hadn't the videos leaked online shamed her into suicide?
And why would the college accept such a student with a tainted record?
Isla had noticed them too and stopped.
Her face, which had been scratched by Mrs. Hamilton, bore scars, but they were hidden under her makeup for the moment.
Under the sun, her eyebrows had a cold tint as she approached Abella, her tone filled with hatred, "My parents got life sentences, are you satisfied?"
Abella's cold gaze fell on her, "Not very... After all, they're not dead yet."
Her grandmother was dead, so why should they still be alive?
If it wasn't for wanting to torment them, to make them pay for their sins, she would have sent them to meet the king of hell long ago!
Isla wanted to say more, but Clare stepped forward, "Didn't you get enough of a beating last time? Want to experience it again?"
"You, you just wait!"
"Why should we wait for you? Who do you think you are?" Clare retorted without hesitation.
Seething with anger, Isla turned and left.
Clare watched her leave and couldn't help but say to Abella, "She's still so annoying... Her parents getting life sentences has nothing to do with you. They got what they deserved!"
If they hadn't committed crimes, they wouldn't have been sentenced!
Abella watched Isla's retreating figure and said nonchalantly, "I heard she's back with Daisy now, struggling with a simple life..."
"Just a few days as a wealthy lady and she can't adapt to her old life? Daisy is so foolish, still treating her like a daughter after all she's done..."
"She's got nowhere else to go now."
Surrounded by creditors every day, the school had become her sanctuary.
