Central University 14:
Jeremy ignored everyone's gaze before getting inside the lift. When the lift reached the top floor, he stepped out and began walking towards his class.
When he got there, as usual, he saw two people who had arrived before him. Betsy and Daniel Stone were seriously discussing something, but upon seeing Jeremy Night, they stopped their conversation.
Jeremy walked inside. He looked at them with a questioning gaze before sitting in his seat.
Daniel Stone was the first to open his mouth.
"Brother Jeremy, did you hear the news?"
"Everyone is making fun of you. You declined the challenge issued by Romeo Barrett. Everyone thinks you are a coward," he added with a dejected tone.
"Jeremy, what's the reason for you declining the challenge?" Betsy asked.
She finally failed to control her curiosity. She had wanted to ask yesterday. But she didn't feel it was appropriate at the time.
