68 The Secret Is Leaked
Arthur took the elevator again to the top floor, where his sugar baby was. He looked fine, even though he had dumped a woman before. Arthur even hummed happily, in a good mood because he had kept away the pests that had previously been bothering the man’s life.
“Lea,” Arthur called with a big smile when he saw Kalea coming out of the bathroom wearing only a bathrobe. Ah, his sugar baby is really sexy. He walked closer as he spread his arms so that Kalea fell into his arms.
“If you want to come, please let me know first,” Kalea said while hugging the man.
“You knew it would be useless. What’s wrong? Are you planning on masturbating again?” Arthur teased mischievously as he poked the brunette haired girl’s chin.
“N-nothing like that anymore!” Kalea argued, her face immediately flushed red because she was reminded of the humiliating historical incident in her life.
Arthur chuckled in amusement and tightened his embrace, tight but not hurtful. Undeniably, he missed this unique girl.
“Arthur,” Kalea called.
“Hmm?”
“Get your naughty hands off my ass.” Kalea’s face was very flat, she knew the hands would continue to touch against her body if they weren’t stopped early.
.....
“Oops, sorry.” Arthur smiled broadly and then slapped the girl’s round, chewy lump, causing Kalea to scream. Arthur ignored the sugar baby’s annoyed face, he kissed the pink lips gently. Kalea was carried away and a little disappointed when Arthur only kissed her briefly. “I miss you.”
“Not usually.”
“I don’t know, maybe he misses you,” Arthur said, pointing at the manhood.
Kalea rolled her eyes lazily, she walked away from Arthur to the wardrobe room.
“You just rolled your eyes in front of me? How rude!” Arthur followed the girl, and without her consent, he lifted Kalea’s body and carried her to the bed.
“W-what are you going to do?!” Kalea screamed, tightening her bathrobe so she wouldn’t be forcibly released by the beast in front of her.
“I will punish you,” Artur said as he unbuttoned his shirts one by one.

Arthur raised an eyebrow, then said, “what’s wrong?”
“I have something to do and I can’t delay.”
“You worked somewhere else again?”
“No, that’s not it. There is a vacancy to be a teaching assistant, and I want to try it,” Kalea replied with a stiff smile, the girl tried to sit up and leaned her body on the headboard. Kalea’s answer made him even more clueless.
“Didn’t you do it already? With that professor named Garfield.
“Garren, not Garfield.”
“Yes. Whatever it is, I don’t care.”
“There’s nothing wrong with being an assistant to two lecturers. I want to get a lot of experience while I’m studying. I’m only busy with college right now, so I want to maximize my education.”
“Your business is serving me, Lea,” Arthur said, looking dissatisfied and disapproving because the job to satisfy him was not mentioned.
“Yeah, yeah, that’s included too.”
Arthur sighed and nodded. He couldn’t stop what Kalea was doing for her future. After that, he let his sugar baby put on clothes in the wardrobe, while he was lazing around before checking his cellphone which might have something interesting on there.
They seem busy with their respective activities. Kalea was busy with her campus activities, and Arthur was busy replying to many women’s messages after he finished taking a shower. “Lea, isn’t it after you’re done with your busyness that we can do it?” Arthur asked as he took a sip of his Americano.
“Aren’t you tired?”
“I never get tired of doing that.”
Shit, Kalea forgot.
“I’ll be waiting for you,” Arthur said, and then returned to his phone.
***
The next morning, Kalea rechecked the files that she would send for the application to become a lecturer assistant.
“Ah! I forgot to tell Mr. Garren, I should have done it yesterday,” Kalea muttered as she grabbed her cell phone and pressed the call button on the lecturer’s contact. Waiting a little longer, Garren finally picked it up.
[Yes, what is it, Miss Lovaata?]
“Good morning, Mr. Garren. Sorry to disturb you.”
[No, take it easy. I’m not busy yet, what’s wrong?]
“Um, well. I want to try to apply to be a teaching assistant again, is that allowed?”
[Oh, who’s the lecturer who opened the vacancy?]
“Mrs. Patricia.”
[I see. I really don’t mind if you can divide the time. Do what you want as long as you are responsible for the decisions you make.]
“...thank you very much, sir. You’ve helped me a lot.”
[Haha, I’m the one who should be saying that.I still need you, you know. So don’t turn your back on me.]
Kalea laughed softly in response to the young lecturer’s words. “I’m just at the stage of collecting files, not necessarily will be accepted, sir.”
[I believe you can, you are very competent, Miss. Lovaata.]
“Thank you, Mr. Garren.”
After there was nothing more to talk about, the conversation on the phone was cut off. Kalea gasped in surprise when she realized that Arthur had been watching her all this time.
“Who was that? Garfield?” Arthur asked with his arms crossed over his chest.
“Garren, Arthur. I asked him for permission to be another teaching assistant,” Kalea replied as she cradled her backpack.
Arthur didn’t ask further and put his arm around the girl to immediately go to campus.
Arriving at the campus, initially Kalea walked as usual until finally she realized that many eyes were looking at her with contempt and were whispering something that was not very audible to her senses of hearing.
“Hey, is she the whore taped to the wall?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Ugh, isn’t she very smart?”
Kalea suddenly stopped in her tracks when she heard the words of the two girls who had just passed by her. Whore? Kalea’s hands trembled, and her mind began to wander and speculate if her secret was out. However, was it really meant for her? Could it be for someone who is nearby? No, she clearly realized that everyone’s scornful gazes were now on her.
Did someone see her somewhere with Arthur? Ah, she was just delivered by that man. Kalea found it difficult to think clearly, even walking was heavy as if the road she was about to take was a sharp, hot, rocky road filled with deadly animals.
However, she still had to go through it. Kalea saw the many people gathered in front of the wall. Her eyes were fixed on something they kept staring at and she gaped in disbelief. Two very clear photos show her stuck on the wall! A photo of Kalea’s geeky appearance, as if she is not good at dressing up and her appearance outside of campus who often wears sexy and seductive clothes.
Plus the words ‘sugar baby’ and other harassing writings. Kalea stared blankly at the photo, she sank into the crowd of people who were curious about the news and immediately pulled out the two photos.
“Hey, what are you doing?! This is news- Oh, aren’t you the one in the photo?” one student asked. Kalea didn’t answer, she crumpled up the photo and put it in her trouser pocket.
“Wow, really very different. To think that behind her ugly clothes there are two big mountains,” another man sneered, followed by laughter from the many people who were there.
“You’re the smart Kalea student that the lecturers are proud of, right? Wow, this is what your job looks like from the outside, huh.” One of the students pushed Kalea’s shoulder, causing her to take a few steps back.
“Sorry, I have to go to class.” Kalea tried to break through the crowd of people, but absolutely no one gave her way.
“Explain that photo first.”
Kalea glared at him, they all had absolutely nothing to do with him. Why should she bother explaining it to them? Kalea’s sharp gaze made them even angrier because she thought that Kalea still dared to put on an annoyed face at them.
Kalea was still trying to break through, even though it was very difficult. She took a deep breath, all she had to do now was get out of the demon society that easily berated someone just because of the little information they had. Without giving up, Kalea tried to get out of the crowd with such force that the two girls fell backward. She didn’t care, Kalea kept running until she was finally in class.
However, it turns out her suffering didn’t stop there. The hateful gazes turned to Kalea from her class. She swallowed hard saliva, then looked for her friend but she couldn’t find her in the room.
No one defended it, as if everyone really believed the news.
Kalea lowered her head, trying to ignore the painful gaze that was directed at her. She stopped when she realized that the chair she had always sat in was now occupied by someone else. All the seats at the front that even the class had avoided, were now fully occupied and there was only one seat in the back. Kalea couldn’t do anything, so she walked languidly towards the remaining seats.
She was silent, her eyes stared at the table full of scribbles of insults that were clearly aimed at her. Kalea could hear faint laughter from some of the others, even loudly calling herself a whore and easily tempted by money. Kalea didn’t want to reply, she decided to sit on the chair, hoping the lecturer would come soon so that everyone wouldn’t focus on her.
Kalea wanted to cry, this wasn’t the first time she had been bullied. However, for some reason, it hurts more now than it used to. Even though she knew, things like this would gradually happen. Kalea closed her eyes, holding back her angry and sad emotions when someone threw paper at Kalea several times.
Until finally, the lecturer entered the class, slightly stopping Kalea’s suffering, or rather postponing it. Her eyes glanced at Aluna, who had just arrived and sat down in her chair. Even Aluna still had time to laugh and joke with her friends without any worries about Kalea’s condition.
Did Aluna not know the news about Kalea? Aluna should have known better because the news was so shocking. She didn’t even see Zeline in her chair. Where’s the blonde girl?
Kalea realized that she was completely alone in this world.
