Only Claire was alone.
On this campus, Claire did not have a single friend, so best friends were nonexistent in her books.
The culprit of it all was Asher.
She was an exception in the finance unit. She never stayed back after class, and she never skipped class either. A luxury car would always drop her off and pick her up, while all her clothes and bags were limited editions of luxury brands that ordinary people would never imagine owning. Even when the principal ran into her by accident, he would greet her with a kind smile.
Gradually, people started gossiping that Claire was probably a mistress who was hidden away.
News spread like wildfire. Soon enough, the entire school knew that the finance unit had a girl like her.
As stubborn as Claire was, she chose to say nothing and explained nothing. She just carried on by herself and soon, no one bothered to approach her.
It was simply because she had nothing to explain.
