Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: I'm Getting Engaged

The Film Academy that Summer Sutton attended was the best in the nation. When she entered, she did so with the top school ranking, having put in a lot of effort in preparation.

Now, however, Gina Sutton talked about transferring like it was nothing.

Such is the power of capital!

Yet, the school Summer Sutton attended was notoriously difficult to get into, and even harder to graduate from.

"I hope you can graduate smoothly as well!" Summer Sutton's reaction was minimal.

Gina Sutton's face froze.

Transferring midway and changing her major, graduating would not be easy.

Summer Sutton didn't plan on chatting much with her and turned to leave, but Gina Sutton called her back, "Summer Sutton, I'll probably be getting engaged soon."

She spoke with pride, her chin held high, and it was clear that the family background of her fiancé must be very powerful, otherwise, she wouldn't be so smug.

Summer Sutton didn't know who her fiancé was, nor did she care to show interest.

"Really? Well, congratulations!" She offered a perfunctory congratulations, her gaze drifting towards where Adrian Walyon was.

Adrian Walyon was far away, also looking at her at this moment.

Summer Sutton, unable to escape under his scrutiny, dismissed the idea of leaving the store and pretended to browse intimate wear inside with her head down.

She just wanted to keep a low profile, but unexpectedly, Gina Sutton kept chattering in her ear, "Aren't you curious about who I'm about to get engaged to?"

"Sorry, I'm not curious." Summer Sutton replied without lifting her head.

It's not her getting engaged, what was there to be curious about?

Gina Sutton laughed lightly, fiddling with the diamond pendant on her chest, "Well, these things aren't something you can envy your way into, being curious won't help."

Summer Sutton was stifled by her words.

What was there for her to envy?

Gina Sutton circled around her, looking her up and down, and suddenly noticed the card in her hand.

A black card, given to her by Adrian Walyon earlier.

A black card, the most prestigious type of card, issued by banks that require at least a billion in deposits to have one.

Gina Sutton had always known Summer Sutton's situation.

Ever since their grandfather passed, no one had cared for Summer Sutton, but over the years, she not only continued to live well, but could always afford tuition, and now had such a luxurious card.

Who was she living with now?

Seeing her expression, Gina Sutton went directly to the wrong conclusion.

"Summer Sutton!" She grabbed her hand, wanting to question her situation, but Summer Sutton shook off her arm and left the store along with a few female customers who were also exiting.

She walked briskly, dodging, as if escaping from something.

Summer Sutton was actually avoiding Adrian Walyon, but again Gina Sutton misunderstood.

Running away even before she questioned? Could she be feeling guilty?

She must have someone supporting her, right?

Surely!

Gina Sutton was convinced she had guessed correctly, feeling an additional layer of contempt for Summer Sutton.

She's a disgrace to the Sutton Family!

After leaving the store, Summer Sutton quickened her pace.

Adrian Walyon was still waiting for her, and if she didn't appear for too long, he would surely come looking for her.

The floor had two sets of elevators, one being the lift and the other the escalator where Adrian Walyon stood.

Summer Sutton found the lift, got in, pressed the button for the first floor, and headed straight for the street after exiting the mall.

"Take me to the Film Academy!" She hailed a taxi, got in, and gave the address. The driver took her towards the school.
