''From the moment she followed me to school, I repeatedly reminded her not to wander off. After all, the school was unfamiliar to her. What if she gets lost? Even though she promised me she wouldn''t, she seemed to have forgotten about it the moment we reached my school.''


    "Gah! Forget it. Maybe this is all a misunderstanding on my part!" said udia out loud with a frown.


    Just then, her friend sent her a screenshot.


    [Take a look at this. Isn''t this your sister? Why is she being discussed in our school forum?]


    The figure in the photo was not very clear, but udia immediately recognized Thalia because she was wearing the same outfit. However, what caught udia''s attention was the sarcastic title of the post and the person standing beside Thalia-Lucas.


    [What''s your opinion of a girl from another school confidently confessing her feelings to our school''s heartthrob?]


    Most of thements below were mocking the girl in the photo, and udia felt extremely ufortable reading them. Thus, she told her friend that the girl in the photo was not her sister.


    ''But when did Thalia meet Lucas? If they didn''t know each other, how could she be confessing to him like this? Could it be because of this incident that she went into hiding?''


    udia felt a mixed bag of emotions for a brief moment. She still did not understand why Thalia would lie to her and her father.


    "Sigh..."


    Originally, she did not want to dwell on this matter, so she pretended not to have seen the post in the forum. The situation would only escte if she were to argue with thementers. Thalia was not even a student at their school to begin with, and udia was confident the news would eventually die down, especially with so many people confessing to Lucas. However, no one expected that her other friend would send her a photo of Thalia feasting outside. She zoomed in on the picture, almost unable to believe her eyes.


    ''Didn''t Thalia say she waited for me in the library? Then who was this person dining outside?''


    [Is this your sister? I went to dine at this restaurant after rehearsal. Just checked the photo and realized there''s a person who looks a lot like your sister. Weren''t you looking for her? Have you found her yet?]


    udia replied with a bitter smile, [I''ve found her. Thanks for the photo. I appreciate it.]N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    [It''s no big deal. I''m just d you''ve found her.]


    As the pieces of evidence piled up one after another, udia knew she could no longer turn a blind eye. She took her phone and knocked on Thalia''s door.


    Thalia stopped rolling around her bed and looked towards the door before calmly tidying herself up and letting udia in.


    "udia, why are you here at this hour? Don''t be mad at Dad. He was just worried about me," Thalia said with a pleasing smile. Her eyes were red, making her look even more pitiful as if she had indeed waited for udia at the library all day.


    However, her smile only chilled udia to the bones. She could not understand what was going on with her sister, why she had to pretend in front of her like this. Just what was she trying to achieve by doing so?


    "Did you really wait for me at the library all day today?" udia asked.


    Thalia smiled weakly. "udia, it sounds like you''ve already made up your mind not to believe, so what''s the point of me repeating the truth? But it doesn''t matter since I''m safely back at home. I promise I won''t cause you any more trouble or step foot in your school again


    udia smiled wryly. "Is that so? Could you really bear to stay away from my school?"


    "What?" Thalia asked as if she had not heard clearly, then repeated, "What do you mean by that?"


    "What do you think it means?"
