"Catherine Stewart, stop!"

Everything was packed. Elliot walked to Catherine and invited her to have dinner together, though she had already run away.

​​

The louder Elliot's voice was, the faster Catherine ran.

Elliot was angry and thought to himself, "What's the matter? Doesn't she want to see me? Why? I am popular, and many girls love you, but she doesn't want to see me. Why?"

It was a real blow for Elliot. He couldn't believe Catherine hated him so much.

"Why do you run away?" asked Elliot.

He caught up with Catherine and grabbed her thin arms.

When Elliot touched Catherine's skin, he was stunned all of a sudden.

"Senior Elliot, what's the matter?" Catherine pretended to smile and asked.

"I had texted you. Do you receive it, don't you?"

"I saw it. But I am busy."

"Busy? You are a freshman, and you have no classes at night. What are you going to go now?"

"It is none of your business, senior Elliot."

Elliot was speechless and then shouted, "Have dinner with me."

"I have an appointment tonight."

"With whom?" asked Elliot angrily. He looked very terrible.

"It is none of your business."

"What?"

Catherine pretended to smile, but her smiling face was just like the sun for Elliot.

"I didn't promise that I would have dinner with you. What is in your mind?" said Catherine.

Elliot was an arrogant person. He thought Catherine would agree if he invited her.

Catherine thought to herself, "Elliot is so arrogant in front of girls, and few girls will refuse her."

"My roommates are waiting for me. I have to go."

"Catherine Stewart!"

"Let's talk when I am free. Sorry, I have to go."

Elliot thought to himself, "I don't want to force her to have dinner with me. It is cheap. I don't want to do that. Catherine did hurt my self-respect. No girls refuse me except her."

"Cathy, what did senior Elliot tell you?"

"Nothing. Elliot is full of himself. Just a kid."

"A kid?" three of them were speechless and thought to herself, "Elliot is older than us."

"Just a naughty kid."

Before rebirth, Catherine died in prison until she was 29 years old. Thus, although Catherine was just 19 years old, her mental age was more than 19 years old. She was mature, and she thought Elliot was just a kid.

"By the way, I have something to do. You can go back first," said Catherine.

"Have a date with Professor Blair?"

"No. Something else."

Catherine returned to the gym.

As she walked into the gym, Catherine saw Pearl, and Iris kept following Ken. Iris handed him water and a towel. Ken had no reactions, but people took up the chant.

Dale and Dave also stood there.

Catherine looked at them, wondering whether Ken accepted or refused Iris and Pearl.

Ken seemed to have not seen Iris as if she were air.

When Dale handed him a towel, Ken took it, wiped his sweat, and then turned and left.

"Good. As expected, Ken has the backbone."

Iris was the mayor's daughter and looked pretty. Her big brother was a respected figure in the army, and her younger brother was an important person in the business. Although she had a bad temper, people can benefit more if they make friends with her.

Iris was honored and popular. Unfortunately, she loved Ken.

Catherine didn't know the background of Ken, but she believed Ken must be poorer than Sean.

"Iris has good taste. Although she doesn't know how to choose good friends, she knows men very well. Ken must be a great man."

"Ken Hosk," shouted Iris.

Iris felt so embarrassed when Ken left, "Stop! Ken Hosk."

But Ken didn't stop. He kept moving forward.

When Iris wanted to add something, Pearl interrupted, "Ken Hosk. I have something to say. It is crucial. About your future."

Ken didn't turn around and said coldly, "I am my own boss. It is none of my business."

"Don't you want to have a better future? I'll give you an opportunity."

Few people stayed in the gym. Only Iris and Pearl were still there.

"Stay away from me. I want to say something to Ken," said Pearl.

Iris knew Pearl wanted to talk something to Ken about designers, so she just stood aside.

Dale and Dave went out and saw Catherine, asking, "You haven't left yet?"

"Yes. I have something to ask senior Ken."

Dale said with a smile, "Ken is lucky. As one of the most beautiful students from Kings College, you and Pearl all come to find him. And Iris also loves him too. How lucky he is! I wish I am as lucky as him."

Catherine smiled and said, "I don't love him. I have something to ask him."

"We won the game today. We are going to celebrate now. Would you like to go with us?"

"Thank you. I won't go with you. Have fun."

"Fine. We are leaving."

In the gym, Ken was looking at Pearl coldly, "I have nothing to talk to you about."

Pearl was peaceful and said, "You can get everything you want in Tylor Inwood, whether it is money or high social status. As long as you join us, you must be the director of design."

"I am not interested in it."

"Be patient. You don't have to refuse now. You study clothing design because you love it. Right? Do you want to design the most beautiful clothing, don't you? Of course, you can work for a small company, but it is not a good platform for you. Tylor Inwood is your best choice."

Since Tylor Inwood was in trouble, Pearl wanted to hire Ken as soon as possible so that Ken could make her company better.

Pearl knew Ken was intelligent, and he must be a great man in the future. Pearl didn't want to miss it.

"You haven't graduated yet, but you can work during vacations and weekends. Besides, I can also pay your tuition fee if you want to learn more."

All of the conditions that Pearl was able to provide were good and attractive. Since Tylor Inwood was a famous company and they were good at designing clothes, many graduates wanted to come here to work. However, Ken didn't care about it.

"No, I don't need," said Ken.

"I can give you anything you want. Just say it," said Pearl.

Pearl didn't believe Ken would refuse her and thought to herself, "He is just a junior student. It is enough for him."
