Chapter 1823

Caprice quickly picked up her phone.

It was Liam. “Have you opened it?”

Caprice smiled with pride and replied, “I did.”

Liam replied, “Not bad, so that head of yours isn’t just for decoration

Caprice was struck speechless. She brushed it aside, then she grinned from ear to ear and sent another

text “Liam, thank you for the gift!”

Liam asked, “Do you like it?”

Caprice was ecstatic “Of course, | do, | love it!”

Liam sent replied cooly as usual, “Good”

It was immediately followed by another message. “From now on, you are forbidden from going to nightclubs for birthday

celebrations”

Caprice suddenly sat up as something just dawned upon her. He knew that today was her birthday all along. That was why he

had prepared a birthday present for her!

She thought about all the tales she tried to spin up tonight to explain to Heather why she was at the nightclub. To make it seem

like she was a model student, she told her that she was only at the nightclub to celebrate Piper’s birthday Could this mean that

Liam knew she was lying the entire time?

She thought about the stunt she pulled and how she had subtly steered her friends against Heather. What would Liam think of

her now?

She covered her face in horror and accidentally yelped out loud, “Ahh!”

“Caprice, what's wrong with you?”

“What are you doing? Is everything okay?”

“Did something happen?”

Piper, Freya, and Lana all turned to her, completely perplexed by her strange behavior.

“No. Im fine.” With that. Caprice pulled the blanket over her head and hid from the world, leaving only the top of her head bulging

out from the blanket.

After a while, when she managed to calm down, she sent a text to Liam. “I understand. You’re going on a business trip, aren’t

you? Please be careful”

There was no reply from Liam

He must be busy-with Heather.

There was also a chance that he no longer wanted to talk to her, seeing as she and her friends had ganged up against Heather,

the girl he fancied.

Caprice rolled around in bed, feeling overwhelmed. She was in no mood for a shower and was barely in the mood to change her

clothes,

She lay on the bed like a corpse and eventually dozed off into a dizzy slumber

The next morning, she was woken up by the alarm clock. When she took a look at her phone, she noticed that a reply came from

Liam at four o’clock in the morning that read “Alright!

Although it was only a short, stoic reply, she was relieved nonetheless.

He had replied! This must mean that he was not upset at her about what happened with her friends and Heather last night.

She smiled softly.

She could deal with Liam not having feelings for her, but she would fall apart if she knew he felt even the slightest tinge of hatred

against her.

Caprice was a sophomore at Sparkrow University which was ranked among the top three universities in Westchester. Despite

that, it was an entire tier below Aleph University.

Caprice barely managed to make the cut for Sparkrow University during her entrance examination. This meant that the course

she was assigned to at the university was one of the easiest and least prestigious

ones

In other words, her coursework and curriculum were quite easy and manageable.

With the summer approaching, she was about to graduate soon,

There was going to be a job fair going on today Recruiters from all sorts of companies were going to show up to screen the

students to look for suitable candidates. They wanted to look for potential hires to induct into their companies to help them

kickstart their professional careers.

Since Caprice had no classes scheduled today, her friends made her go with them.

Frankly, they were not interested in this job fair. They were only here to gawk at the handsome seniors if there were any

However, they were no good targets to speak of at the job fair. They did chance on Heather who was immediately surrounded on

all sides. She wore a high ponytail and was dressed in a business suit, exuding a mix of professionalism and good taste.

She had always been beautiful, and the fact that she was a top student at Aleph University further boosted her reputation Now

that she was one of the leading figures in the infamous Carter Tech City, her reputation continued to skyrocket to unprecedented

levels

Nearly all of the attendees of the job fair went up to her to greet her.

Even though she was surrounded by a sea of people, she somehow managed to spot Caprice the moment she showed up with

Lana and her friends. She cried out immediately. “Caprice!”

Caprice felt a shiver run across her body

Lana, Freya, and Piper were also taken aback by her greeting.

As soon as Heather’s voice dropped, everyone surrounding her turned to look at Caprice.
