Chapter 798: Chapter 798

"Yes, indeed we were classmates."

Charlotte Thompson nodded, then stood up.

A person from the production team came over to inform them that the shooting was about to begin.

"Let’s go, Charlotte," Nina Adams said, still by Charlotte’s side.

Charlotte smiled without a word.

Once filming started, Nina introduced herself.

Beyond the official competition and evaluations, Nina kept initiating conversations with Charlotte, drawing the camera’s attention towards them.

Charlotte could well imagine the "Sisterly Love" captions the post-production editing would pair with their scenes.

Furthermore, she figured the hook for this episode’s promotion was probably their reunion as former classmates.

Looking at Nina’s smiling face, Charlotte found herself somewhat impressed.

"Who would’ve thought, Miss Adams and Miss Thompson are so close."

After filming ended, the cameraman commented, the episode had captured many interactions between Nina and Charlotte.

"I was friends with Charlotte when we were at school."

Nina responded so, going back to the dressing room with Charlotte.

Perhaps intentionally, the production team had put them in the same dressing room.

"Charlotte, how about I buy you a meal after filming? We haven’t seen each other for so many years, I have a lot I want to say to you. Thinking that you’re actually the young miss of the Thompson family..."

Just as they entered the dressing room, Nina Adams said to her.

Upon hearing this, Charlotte lifted her eyes, a hint of amusement in her clear gaze.

"Nina, I believe your talent isn’t in design, but in the entertainment industry."

At Charlotte’s words, the smile on Nina’s lips froze. She coughed lightly, discomfort making her avert her gaze.

"Charlotte, what do you mean by that?"

"Nina, you know very well what happened back then. We went to the same school, but we were not on good terms. I can pretend in front of the camera with you, but behind the scenes... there’s no need for such pretenses." Charlotte said frankly. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ NoveI(F)ire.net

She had always been this straightforward, and she was not inclined to indulge in hypocritical behavior with the person in front of her.

Nina walked over and sat down beside the sofa, lifting her head to look at Charlotte as she smoothed out her hair.

"I was wrong in the past, and I apologize to you."

Hearing this, Charlotte wasn’t exactly surprised, she just turned to look at Nina.

From the way Nina repeatedly referenced the ’Thompson family’ and ’Miss’, Charlotte knew.

Nina’s sudden friendliness wasn’t due to guilt for past actions. It was simply fear of her current status.

When Charlotte was studying design and first arrived in her class, everyone was unfamiliar with each other, also Ashton’s discrimination against foreigners was severe back then. Adding to it, all the aspirants in the design course were from influential families, hence being the only Druarus citizen in the class with no ’background’, Charlotte was often isolated.

However, Charlotte was not someone who would let others walk over her. Any instances of humiliation or insult were returned without hesitation.

As a result, over time, fewer and fewer people tried to bully her, choosing rather to isolate her instead.

But Charlotte didn’t come to design class to make friends, so she honestly didn’t care about their behavior.

Likewise, Nina came along later, as a transfer student.

Since they were both from Druarus, Nina stayed close to Charlotte, and they got along pretty well.

It was only after a certain incident did Charlotte come to realize that Nina hadn’t approached her out of any sort of hometown sentiment.

Nina was just helping others plot against her.
