Mia flashed a slightly awkward yet polite smile. “Compared to your accomplishments, Jeremy, minenovelbin
seem insignificant.”
Ramona couldn’t resist interjecting, “Even if Mia snagged the first prize, what’s the big deal? I heard
she
ditched college for some guy, so now she probably only has a high school diploma.
“What reputable company would hire someone with just a high school education?”
Jolene chimed in, “Exactly. These days, having a solid education is crucial for securing job
opportunities.”
Ramona adopted a seemingly caring tone as she spoke, “Mia, I genuinely feel sorry for you. You had
such good grades back then, even securing a spot in a top–tier university.
“But it’s such a shame that you dropped out for a guy. If only you had a degree from a prestigious
university now, along with this award, finding a good job would be a breeze.”
“Who said Mia only has a high school diploma?”
Just then, Gina barged through the door and confronted Ramona directly.
“Mia has been diligently preparing for her resit examinations on campus. Once she passes her exams
and gets her thesis approved, she’ll successfully obtain her graduation certificate.”
“That’s impossible! Mia dropped out years ago. How can she suddenly decide to return to university
like
this?”
“Just because you can’t achieve something doesn’t mean others can’t. As I mentioned, Mia is back in
college, preparing for her exams.
“Soon, she’ll graduate from Halvard University, a top–tier institution, unlike someone who holds only an
associate degree and still has the audacity to belittle others.”
Ramona instantly became defensive. “Gina, who are you referring to as an associate degree holder?
I’ve been studying abroad for quite some time now. It’s at a prestigious university in Nord City, a place
most people can only dream of.”
Jolene joined in with a boast, “Exactly! Ramona is currently studying abroad as an international
student. Mia can’t even compare to that.”
Gina smirked. “That must have been quite expensive, huh?”

Ramona’s demeanor tensed. “My family is well–off. Are you feeling envious or something?”
Mia immediately tugged at Gina’s sleeve, shaking her head subtly. “Let it be, there’s no need to argue
about this.”
“Mia, I’m just trying to defend you here. Given that you haven’t attended any class reunions in the past
few years, you might not be aware of the rumors and gossip circulating about you.
“Now is the perfect opportunity to set the record straight.”
Visibly agitated, Ramona exclaimed, “Mia, I heard you dropped out of college for a guy back then. Our
class teacher thought it was such a pity. Are you still with him?”
Mia paused before responding, “No, we’re no longer together.”
“Doesn’t that mean you’re divorced now? Unfortunately, second marriages can be quite difficult these
days. Perhaps I should help you find someone,” Ramona quipped.
Mia responded with a wry smile. “That won’t be necessary. We aren’t close enough for that.”
Jolene sarcastically chimed in, “Don’t miss out on this opportunity. Ramona knows some eligible guys.
If
you pass this up, you might regret it.”

and enjoys her life independently.”
After all, as the heiress of the Lane family, did Mia need to depend on any man?
Ramona burst into laughter, covering her mouth. “Well, I half–expected you to say that Mia is now living
the high life with some wealthy older man.
“But let’s be real, that’s not a sustainable plan–Ah! Why did you splash water on me?”

Furious, Ramona rose from her seat. “Mia, do you realize this outfit is designer? Can you even afford to
compensate for it?”
Gina interjected with a cold snort. “Who told you to spread baseless rumors? Getting splashed is just
what you deserve, isn’t it?”
“Where did I spread baseless rumors? Just moments ago, I saw an older man driving a luxury car,
