“Roommate?” Natalie lowered her gaze in thought before realization finally dawned on her, her eyes lighting up. “You’re Hannah!”
Hannah crossed her arms arrogantly and stuck her chin out. “Uh-huh.”
A smile crept across Natalie’s face, but the smile never reached her eyes. Sizing Hannah up, she nodded and replied in a courteous manner, “Yup. It came to my mind after you reminded me about us being roommates. You’ve changed a lot.”
So you were my roommate when I was a freshman at J University. She majored in art as well, but we weren’t close to each other. Hannah’s family was not well-off, so she was rather gloomy and had low self-esteem. Therefore, she did not mix well with other coursemates, especially me. For some inexplicable reason, she hated my guts. That was why I was rather shocked to see her greet me just now.
“Of course. I’m a famous model now,” she bragged, unbearably smug.
Knowing that she was showing off to her, Natalie’s lips twitched in response. “Oh, I see. You have a great body. It definitely suits you. Congratulations.”
“Thanks.” Hannah casually touched the designer bag on her shoulder. “What about you? What are you doing now? Are you still working as a costume designer?”
“Yeah.” Natalie nodded.
Hannah stifled a scornful smile. “Seems like you’re not doing that well.”
“Oh?” Natalie raised an eyebrow. “How so?”
“You’re not popular at all. I’ve never heard of you in the fashion industry.” Hannah walked around her, sizing her up condescendingly. “How does the once gifted fashion design student of J University become a lowly designer now? Perhaps you should beg me until I’m satisfied, and maybe then I’ll help you to find a renowned designer to guide you.”
She fixed her eyes on Natalie as she waited for her to answer.
I could finally trample on the dignity of the girl whom I’ve been jealous of since years ago.
Knowing that Hannah was looking for trouble, Natalie’s gaze turned cold.
