Goldie, smelling a rat, turns in time to see Ryan smiling gallantly on the side.
'Oh no! I knew it!... Ryan is behind this!', Goldie gasps in horrified realisation.
'No! …No no no no no no NO!', Goldie cries within, utterly devastated.
If Ryan was making Cory back out, then there was nothing that could be done about it. This was a hopeless situation.
Goldie's expression was suddenly no longer bright and bubbly as all the joy in her face had wilted away with the realisation that Cory was indeed dumping her, and this did not escape the sharp eye of Mr Ross, the homeroom teacher of Class 12A.
Observing Goldie's troubled demeanour, Mr Ross needed to be extra sure that Cory, Goldie's preferred candidate, was truly not interested in tutoring Goldie anymore. Especially because Cory had suddenly changed his mind out of nowhere.
