In the afternoon, Maxwell Peary went to the Company for work, leaving Nia Mitchell under doctor's orders to rest at the Villa.
But she was completely well!?
Lying bored on the couch, Nia suddenly received a call from her class monitor, Ralph Perez.
"Hello? Monitor."
Nia sat cross-legged on the sofa, scratching her tousled hair.
"Nia, we're having a class gathering this Sunday."
Ralph Perez was in his dormitory, busy informing everyone one by one.
Nia was taken aback; only then did she remember. Ralph had mentioned this gathering back at School, and she had asked him to inform her when the time came.
The only reason those people wanted to meet was because they'd heard about Hendry Hampton and wanted an opportunity to humiliate her. Who could blame them? Hendry Hampton's pursuit of her at University A had caused such a stir.
"I know, I'll be there. Where is it?"
On the other end of the phone, Ralph Perez hesitated.
