Chapter 579 Why So Indifferent
The gazes from the people around made Charlotte feel very uncomfortable.
She knew many people were laughing at her.
Yes, she was the one who rejected Ulysses back then.
But who knew Ulysses' family was actually wealthy?
Probably no one present knew, right?
Even Isadora didn't know.
Besides, Isadora's own family was wealthy, so she didn't care if her boyfriend had money or not.
But she was different.
Given the choice between someone with money and someone without, she would definitely choose the one with money.
That was the primary consideration.
She wasn't like Isadora, who didn't have to worry about these things.
But now that she knew Ulysses had money, she had other thoughts.
If they were all wealthy, she would definitely choose Ulysses first.
After all, she felt regretful when she rejected Ulysses back then.
Ulysses was excellent in every way except for not having money.
But now, he had money!
Seeing Ulysses' grandmother, Charlotte knew she had made the wrong choice.
How could she have misjudged someone with such a good demeanor as Ulysses?
She just didn't know if it was too late now.
Charlotte was never one to be indecisive.
She would definitely do what was beneficial to her.
So, as soon as she left the classroom, she immediately broke up with her boyfriend.
She needed to think carefully about what to do next.
The reason she broke up so quickly was partly because she had confidence in herself, after all, it hadn't been long since Ulysses confessed to her.
Secondly, she didn't think highly of Isadora.
After all, Isadora's personality was not only carefree but also not gentle at all.
Compared to her, her own advantages were very obvious.
Moreover, since Ulysses liked her back then, his preferences couldn't have changed that much in such a short time.
As long as she put in some effort, she was confident she could win Ulysses over.
Of course, she wouldn't be foolish enough to immediately go to Ulysses and confess her feelings.
If she went to him right after finding out he was wealthy, unless Ulysses was a fool, it would only embarrass her.
Ulysses had no idea that Charlotte had already played out a whole drama in her mind.
After sending Nicole off, he went to find Isadora.
Although he didn't know why Isadora suddenly left, he felt a vague sense of unease.
He called Isadora, and she answered quickly.
"Isadora, where are you? Why did you leave so suddenly?"
"My dad called, there's something at home, I need to go back." Isadora said, "We might need to go back to our hometown for a few days. I'll be back in three to five days."
"You're going back to your hometown?" Ulysses said, "Can we meet before you leave? It'll be several days before I can see you again. I'll miss you."
Isadora said, "But I'm already on my way home, wait for me to come back, three to five days will pass quickly. We can call each other!"
"Alright." Ulysses said, "I'll wait for you to come back."
For the next two days, Ulysses could hardly get in touch with Isadora.
She said she had just returned to her hometown and had to meet many relatives, so she didn't have time to check her phone.
Ulysses could only chat with her for a while at night.
But even then, she was constantly interrupted, it sounded very busy on Isadora's end.
Ulysses couldn't help but think of the time during the New Year when many people came to visit his family.
He understood and comforted Isadora, saying it was okay, and that everything would be fine once she came back.
They had been sweet and loving before, seeing each other every day.
Now, suddenly being apart for several days, Ulysses really missed her.
It was the first time he knew what it felt like to miss someone.
But there was nothing he could do; he even thought about going to Isadora's hometown to find her.
But obviously, that would be too much.
Isadora must be busy with things in her hometown, and he would only be causing trouble if he went.
On the weekend, Ulysses went home.
The incident with Nicole going to the school was naturally known to his family.
Ulysses had no choice but to explain the whole situation.
The family sat together to discuss the matter.
"It's not Isadora's fault." Nicole said first, "Everyone at school thought Ulysses had no money, so it's normal for them to think he couldn't afford such an expensive purse. It's normal for them to think it was fake."
"But..." Stuart said, "I still think it's a bit inappropriate."
Josephine said, "You don't know her personality. Ulysses mentioned before that she's very carefree and straightforward. Others might think carrying a fake purse is embarrassing, but to her, it doesn't matter."
Nicole also said, "That's right, I've heard Ulysses talk about their relationship a few times, and that girl is indeed very straightforward. To be honest, I quite like that personality."
Gerald said, "There's no need to keep discussing his matters. It's just a relationship; who knows what will happen in the future? Don't make it such a big deal."
He was never very concerned about Ulysses' matters.
Boys didn't need that much attention, letting them grow on their own was good.
Besides, Gerald didn't think it was a good idea for Nicole to go to the school.
But Nicole was worried about Ulysses, and there was nothing he could do.
Ulysses' former classmates all thought his family was very poor, which was why Ulysses was so keen on working part-time.
Now they probably all knew that wasn't true.
Josephine asked, "Anyway, Ulysses is grown up now, he can make his own decisions about many things. Ulysses, have your classmates' attitudes towards you changed?"
Ulysses said, "Except for a few friends who scolded me and asked me to treat them, nothing much has changed. I don't interact with them much anyway, so I don't care if their attitudes change or not."
"That's true." Gerald said, "You guys are still in college, after all, you haven't entered society yet. Pure friendships are very precious."
"I know." Ulysses stood up, "You guys chat, I'm going upstairs."
They all knew he was going to chat with his girlfriend, teased him a bit, and let him go.
Ulysses went upstairs and sent a message to Isadora, but there was no reply.
He sent a voice message, but no one answered.
This had been the norm for the past two days.
Isadora was very busy, and he didn't know when she would be free.
Ulysses sighed, put down his phone, and went to do his own things.
He didn't know how long it had been when his phone rang. He picked it up and saw it was a message from Isadora.
Isadora: [There are a lot of things today, I'm tired, I'm going to sleep first.]
Ulysses couldn't say why, but he felt a vague sense of unease.
Just like that day when Nicole went to the school, but Isadora left without saying anything.
In his view, Isadora wasn't someone who would be easily embarrassed.
She wouldn't be shy about meeting his grandmother.
Even if she had to leave, she would have said something first.
But she left without a word.
And her attitude had been very cold these past two days.
Ulysses wasn't stupid, he sensed Isadora's indifference.
But why was that?
