Felicia picked up the hat that had fallen on the ground and handed it back to Carmen. She said in a gentle voice, “It’s windy on the rooftop. You shouldn’t come up here next time.” “It’s none of your business.” Carmen took the hat and turned to leave.
Felicia wanted to say something more, but Carmen glared at her and coldly warned, “You’d better stay away from me, or you’ll regret it.”
Her tone was fierce and threatening, leaving no room for approach.
Felicia could only smile helplessly.
Just then, the campus intercom crackled to life, announcing that all freshmen were to gather at the field for an urgent meeting regarding an important announcement. What was this about?
Felicia frowned, speculating that it might be some event like a freshmen welcome party or a celebration.
However, when she arrived at the field and looked up, she saw Arnold standing next to the college director. An uneasy feeling welled up in Felicia.
On the stage, Blake cleared his throat and held the microphone. “I have good news to announce Mr. Lawson has generously sponsored one million for our college to cover the costs of this year’s freshmen training!
“So, in addition to the freshmen training, we’ll also have a voluntary rural teaching and donation activity!
“Coincidentally, this year marks the centennial anniversary of our college, so the college will also allocate another one million to purchase books, stationery, and other supplies to donate to schools in the impoverished areas we’ll be serving!
“This training will last for half a month, and of course, the chosen areas for teaching are very poor and backward, so you all need to be mentally prepared!
“So, are you guys interested in participating?”
As Blake announced the news, gasps filled the crowd. The moment he asked the question, the field erupted in cheers!
“Woohoo! We’re in!”
No one wanted to miss out on this opportunity.
This was the first time the college had organized such a training activity, which broke away from tradition. It all sounded exciting!
Blake nodded in satisfaction and continued, “Our vice principal and Mr. Lawson will lead this training. You guys must obey the rules; no mischief allowed!” The announcement was made, and the departure was set for early the day after tomorrow.
The surrounding cheers grew louder, but Felicia’s brows furrowed deeper.
In her previous life, there hadn’t been such a training activity; there had only been the centennial celebration ceremony.
During that ceremony, she had
already been engaged to Arnold but could only watch helplessly as he danced with Kayla under the spotlight. The two received
everyone’s envy and admirael

After that, the bullying directed at Felicia only intensified.
What about this life?
Felicia felt a strange sense of foreboding as if some events were slipping out of alignment, yet within that disarray, everything seemed to follow the original storyline. As she pondered, her gaze collided with Arnold’s from a distance.
Even from afar, amid the throng of students, she felt the intensity of his gaze. It was hot and piercing, filled with… hatred.
Since the engagement party had
been ruined and Matthew had been hospitalized, Felicia was under no further pressure to marry. It seemed as if the engagement had been set aside.
However, Felicia felt something was amiss. Matthew, who was determined to ensure she and Arnold were together, would not easily give up.
So what did Arnold’s strange behavior mean? Was it directed at her?
