Julian, are you busy?” Eleanor asked.

Julian immediately put away her phone and explained. “I’m about to intern. I don’t have the ability to compete like you. I can only submit my resume everywhere and talk to HR.”
“Okay. Let’s go.”
Eleanor did not ask further and continued forward.
Julian went forward to hold her arm and probed, “The competition is about to begin. Do you have any ideas for the design?”
Eleanor smiled at her. “Don’t worry. I designed it long ago. It’ll definitely be foolproof.”
“Really?” Julian pinched her fingers thoughtfully.
“What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”
“No, I just think you’re amazing. You’re not like me. I’m still so ungifted in design even after four years of hard work. Julian lowered her eyes and looked pitiful.
In the past, Eleanor would have comforted her.
Now, she couldn’t be bothered to waste her breath.
“Then work harder in the future,” Eleanor said.
Julian’s expression froze. She bit her lip and did not say anything.
After eating, Eleanor said to Julian, “I have something to do tomorrow. You don’t have to eat with me.” Julian’s lips curved slightly. “Okay.”
The next morning.
Eleanor’s roommates had gone out for an interview early in the morning. Only Eleanor was still asleep.
There was a knock on the door. She rubbed her eyes and got up.
She opened the door and saw Lily standing outside with a bag.
Lily asked, “Still sleeping? What time is it? Aren’t you going to get up and dress up?”
“Nine o’clock. Eleanor smoothed her messy hair and did not want to move at all.
She had stayed up all night yesterday and really did not have the strength to move.
Lily was disappointed. She dragged Eleanor to wash up and looked at the palm–sized bathroom in disdain. “I told you to find an apartment outside, but you insisted on living in the dormitory.”
“Mom, do you know how expensive apartments in Eureka are? Do you want me to be accused of having a sugar daddy?” Eleanor slowly washed up.

Lily saw through her thoughts. “Are you stalling for time with me?”
Eleanor shut up.

Lily stared at Eleanor as she washed up. After Lily was satisfied, she led Eleanor to the school gate.
“Lily, here.” A hearty male voice sounded.
Eleanor was not used to high heels and missed a step. Fortunately, a pair of hands held her up.
“Are you all right?”
“No…” Before Eleanor could finish speaking, a mocking and cold gaze landed on her.
Sensing the gaze, Eleanor turned her head to look.
It was Elijah.
He was dressed in a cold and solemn black suit. His slender fingers were pressed against his forehead, and his blood–red thumb ring carried a hint of bloodthirsty coldness under the sunlight.
Zoey was leaning against him.
Zoey seemed to be saying something. The two of them were very close to each other. The expression on Elijah’s face was also faint and gentle.
Eleanor retracted her gaze and pretended to be calm as she lowered her hand.
“Thank you,” she said.
“You’re welcome.” The man looked over. “That’s Elijah, right? He really dotes on his fiancée. He actually picked her up personally”
Yeah.
Everyone could see the preference of Elijah for Zoey.
Only in her previous life, she was like a fool, waiting for him and loving him.
Eleanor was about to nod when Lily pulled her back.
“Since we’ve bumped into him, go and greet him now, Lily said.
“I’m not going. Eleanor shook off her hand and pretended to leave.
“You…” Before Lily could finish, she was interrupted by Zoey’s sudden voice.
“Lily, Eleanor. What a coincidence. This is…” Zoey held Elijah’s arm and sized up the man beside Eleanor.
Lily already felt that Zoey was a hypocritical bitch. After the Davis family’s incident, she was even more certain that Zory had ill intentions.
She walked to the man’s side and bragged, “He is the heir of the Jenkins family, Mateo. He’s a good–looking man. We’re all very satisfied.”
The two words “we have a deeper meaning.

It was too late for Eleanor to stop her. Eleanor instantly felt Elijah’s gaze darken.
Mateo stepped forward in a gentlemanly manner. “Mr. Davis.”

Elijah did not look at him. His gaze casually landed on Eleanor, and his lips curled into a mocking smile. “We?”
In the end, he glanced at Mateo ambiguously. “What a handsome man.” “Eleanor’s back stiffened and his palms were covered in cold sweat.
It was an understatement, but it made her feel suffocated.
Zoey glanced at Mateo with disdain.
This kind of man was nothing compared to Elijah.
But he was more than enough to match Eleanor.
However, Zoey did not show it. Instead, she had a gentle smile on her face. “Mateo is so good. Eleanor, you have to be with him. The most important thing is to live a stable life. Don’t always think about nonsense.”
