Chapter 187: Demon in the Bottle – 26

As I sat alone in the lounge, celebrating the successful completion of the lecture, Karen suddenly approached me.

She came closer and handed me something unexpectedly.

It was an invitation to the freshmen welcome party.

And Maya's name was written as the inviter.

"Why would you have Maya's…?"

She paused for a moment, then poured out words like a storm.

"I was so frustrated watching from the sidelines. Do you know how much Maya wanted to go with the Director? Why don't you show a little favour to Maya this time too? You pamper Ella so much… Even Reyna, who just joined recently, you've been so attentive to her. But why do you treat Maya so coldly?"

Everything was sudden.

But her last words lingered in my ears.

Did I treat Maya coldly?

I pondered deeply.

Perhaps there was some truth in what she said.

Knowing Maya's independent nature, I didn't try to show her more attention than any other member.
