Andrea was so shocked that she forgot to squeeze out her fake tears, just gaping at Tobias, who was ridiculously handsome, way beyond what she'd expected.
She thought, 'Wait, it's him? The guy who picked up Kaia at the school gate that day. It's actually him!'
His looks could make the sun and moon pale in comparison, and that commanding presence? No way was he some gigolo. He was on a whole different level.
The people who had been badmouthing Kaia just a moment ago suddenly went quiet.
They thought to themselves, 'This is the gigolo Andrea was talking about? When did gigolos start wearing designer suits? Since when do they have this kind of aura and presence?'
'And let's not forget this is the Splendor Hotel. The people who dine here are either loaded, powerful, or well-connected. There is no way a gigolo would ever show up at a place like this.'
'So... we've all been played by Andrea? She was just trying to smear her sister's name?'
'Damn! If that's true, that's just evil! A woman's reputation is everything, and she just slandered her sister in public. Good thing someone spoke up, or Kaia would've been gossiped about everywhere she went.'
With that, everyone looked at Andrea with disgust and contempt. Some people couldn't stand it anymore and started calling her out right there.
Andrea was so anxious that she was practically jumping around like an ant in a hot pan. Louis, standing beside her, turned and said, "What you said earlier was way out of line. You should apologize to her."
He said this partly because Andrea had gone too far, and partly because the tide had turned against her.
Andrea bit her lip hard, her eyes swollen and red as she looked at Kaia. "I'm sorry, Kaia. I acted rashly just now. Please don't get me wrong. I really didn't mean to slander you. I was just too worried and panicked, and in the heat of the moment, I forgot where we were. I'm sorry! Kaia, can you forgive me, please?"
Kaia was absolutely repulsed by Andrea's performance.
"You never change, always putting on a show, Andrea. Let me tell you—don't think everyone's a fool. Just because you're good at acting doesn't mean everyone's buying it."
When the people around heard that, their gaze toward Andrea grew even more strange and uncomfortable.
"Kaia, I'm really sorry. If that's not enough, I'll even get down on my knees for you. I..."
Before Andrea could even kneel, Kaia turned to Stephen. "I remember she said she wanted to work hard to get into the institute, but honestly, I don't think we should let someone like her in. What do you think, sir?"
Hearing Kaia use that formal "sir" again, Stephen felt even more out of place, and he started sweating even more.
But after all, he was someone who'd weathered plenty of storms in his life, so he managed to keep his cool.
"You're right. Even if she were some kind of genius, our institute wouldn't touch someone like her. Besides, her so-called talent? It's nothing to write home about."
Stephen's words struck Andrea like a thunderclap from above, leaving her completely shattered and pale as a ghost.
Kaia couldn't be bothered with her anymore. "Professor Weaver, I have something else to take care of, so I'll head out now. Thanks for all your guidance and advice today. I did learn a lot."
Stephen and the other professors awkwardly kept up the pretense.
They freaked out. "No, no need to thank us."
Kaia didn't bother with the formalities anymore and simply walked away.
She had barely stepped out the door when she realized Tobias was right behind her.
