Sugar Dating with CEO-Chapter 69
69 All That Was Fought For, Disappeared
“Can anyone answer?” the female lecturer asked all the students in the class.
Kalea raised her hand, all eyes on her with cynicism and some mocking. Even the lecturer didn’t seem convinced.
“Okay, please, Miss Lovaata.”
Kalea got up from her seat, she walked slowly forward, very carefully because several times there were legs that were intended to trip her. She wrote the answers on the blackboard as she usually did. Then she returned to her seat when she was done.
“Th-thank you, Miss. Lovaata. Your answer is always right,” the lecturer said with a bitter smile. Kalea didn’t feel strange, because she knew that the lecturers were aware of the news.
When Kalea was about to sit back in her chair, she fell down because the chair was being pulled by another student sitting behind her. As a result, she collided with the chair and fell together, causing a loud sound that made everyone in the class turn their attention to Kalea.
Kalea winced in pain, she held her right arm which was directly against the chair support. No one helped her, they just watched with sly smiles on their faces.
“Miss. Lovaata, come with me to the counseling room. Everyone, please study independently first,” the lecturer said, and immediately left the class. The class was not conducive, and she received a message from the lecturer to discuss further the problem of one of the outstanding students, namely Kalea Orlin Lovaata.
“Looks like you’re going to be expelled from campus, bitch,” the man taunted who was the culprit pulling Kalea’s chair.

The girl with the brunette hair ignored it, and with the remaining strength she had, Kalea got up and reorganized her books into her bag and followed the lecturer. She walked sluggishly into the counseling room, trying not to be bothered by the many eyes that looked at her with cynicism and contempt.
When she got there, there were already two lecturers plus the head of the department waiting for her. One of these lecturers is Garren Jarvis. Kalea couldn’t bear to look into those eyes, Garren must have been disappointed in her.
“Please have a seat, Miss Lovaata.” The head of the department invited Kalea to sit in front of them. The girl walked slowly and sat there. She lowered her head, her heart beating fast because really, she wasn’t really ready to face this problem. But rice has become porridge. Whatever the decision later, she must accept it gracefully.
“This morning the news posted on the wall magazine was really horrendous. You knew that too, didn’t you?” the head of the department asked. George, a man in his 40s, is the head of the department and has a professorship.
Kalea responded with a low nod. George handed me several photos that had previously been pasted on several posters, not just one. No matter what it looks like, it really is her. She really wondered who the person who secretly took the photo was, then speculated that the person must have been watching her for a long time.
“Is this true of you, Miss Lovaata? I hope you are telling the truth,” George asked seriously.
Kalea was silent for a moment, her hands clenched and slightly trembling. No matter how hard she tried to calm herself down, she was really scared. The girl closed her eyes and nodded. Admit if the person in the photo is really her. The three adults in the room were shocked and showed faces full of disappointment. Garren was still staring at Kalea as if asking for a further explanation of this. Everyone didn’t expect that a student named Kalea Orlin Lovaata, who excelled and received a full scholarship until she graduated, was polite, and had a very good personality, would turn out to be completely different outside of campus.
If it’s like this, Kalea is not a good example for other students.
George took a deep breath, still not expecting that Kalea, who they had always been proud of, was now so disappointing. “Why is it like this? Can you tell me the reason?” George asked again.
Kalea bit her lower lip, trying her best not to cry even though her hazel eyes were getting hot and teary. “I-I need money, Professor. This is indeed my decision, I’m so sorry to disappoint you all,” Kalea replied so quietly.
“You can do a job that’s safer and better in the eyes of a lot of people, can’t you?” Mrs. Pamela asked, the female lecturer in her class earlier. Kalea smiled bitterly, wishing the lecturer knew she had put in a lot of effort but still struggled to cover her family’s expenses.
“I’ve done it, but my family’s financial condition forced me to be like this,” Kalea replied.
“We can help you get out of a job like that, you are smart, Miss. Lovaata. You can definitely get a better job,” Geroge said, providing a solution. Of course, he felt sorry for the condition of his protege, who was forced to become the backbone of the family at a relatively young age.
Kalea’s heart was getting tighter, and without her power the tears fell on the back of her hand. “Thank you for your kindness, Prof. I’m fine with this condition,” the girl said gently. It’s not that easy to break the contract with Arthur, this is indeed her fault. Lately, Kalea has been too carried away by the pleasures that overflow her, even though what she does is certainly underestimated by the general public.
Maybe she’s getting karma right now. What she has sown, that is what she reaps.
“Well, Miss. Lovaata. The news of this has shocked the whole campus. Because of this, it is possible that your scholarship will be forcibly revoked and you will have to stop being Mr. Garren’s assistant,” George said, explaining what the punishments were for Kalea.
She wasn’t surprised anymore. Kalea knew something like this would happen if her secret was exposed. However, still. It was as if she had just been struck by lightning after hearing those words come out of the mouth of the head of the International Relations department.
“I will report this to the rector, and I suggest you better apply for six months of leave, until things get back to normal,” George continued to advise. The suggestion came after hearing Mrs. Pamela, about how is Kalea treated by the children in the class. So worrying. Of course, the condition of the class will not be that easy to return to calm if the trigger figure is still there.
Kalea quickly shook her head disapprovingly. “N-no, Prof. I will continue to study as usual, I want to graduate soon,” Kalea whispered with a sad look on her face. Anyone who saw it would not have the heart to want to embrace that weak body.
George turned to Garren, who was still silent, even though the student in front of the man was currently his assistant. “Mr. Garren, are you all right? Miss Lovaata must stop being your assistant,” George said.
Garren’s gaze never left the girl with the brunette hair, who looked down more guiltily. To be honest, his heart also hurt and he was very disappointed after hearing the news. He even postponed some of his academic activities outside and immediately rushed to the campus to check the condition of his assistant, whether the news was true or just someone’s slander. Kalea is a good girl, whatever Kalea’s reasons, Garren believes his assistant must have gone through a lot of hard things to be forced to choose such a job.
“I ... actually don’t mind if Miss. Lovaata stays as my assistant. She’s really very helpful,” Garren replied, making Kalea touched. “Even though Miss. Lovaata confirms that the person in this photo is her, my gaze on Miss. Lovata is still good.. That’s why I don’t have a problem,” the young lecturer continued with a warm smile.
Even though Garren was disappointed but still giving Kalea a chance, the girl seemed to want to cry out loud.
“But unfortunately, it will be difficult. Rules are rules. If Miss. Lovaata is still allowed to be a teaching assistant, but other students will think badly of her. They may think that Miss. Lovaata has seduced you,” George said there was a point. Mrs. Pamela nodded in agreement. “That will only make things worse.”
Garren fell silent, confirming it in his mind as well. He should have thought about what would happen in the future. Garren closed his eyes for a moment, he should have known. It’s not like his usual self.
“Then Miss. Lovaata will really stop being my assistant, huh.”
After discussing the matter, Kalea needed to wait for further information after Prof. George reported it to the rector. And after that, she really became an ordinary student. Coming out of the counseling room, Kalea became more lethargic than before, even she was like a zombie.
Though today she wanted to collect files to be another teaching assistant. However, let alone adding work, she actually lost everything. She got the job of being an assistant to Mr. Garren, and got her full scholarship until she graduated from college. Everything she had worked so hard for, disappeared in an instant in just six hours. Now she didn’t know what to do. Just to go back to class, her footsteps were so heavy. The place was getting more and more unpleasant because all of her classmates were really like demons.
So tired, she wanted to go home. Kalea tightened her backpack and decided to head back to the apartment.
“Lea!”
Kalea looked up, she knew the voice. Her best friend’s voice! “Luna ...” Kalea said very slowly and wanted to cry.
With a gasping breath, Aluna immediately hugged Kalea tightly. They poured out their sadness about the problem that had just confronted the girl with hazel eyes. “Sorry, I’m sorry for not helping you in class!” Aluna said in between sobs.
Kalea just shook her head, she was crying silently. She had thought that there was no one beside her, but it turned out that Aluna was still her best friend.
“They told me not to be friends with you anymore, I was forced to remain silent when you were bullied by them. I’m sorry,” Aluna mumbled as she let go of her hug. The look on her face really implied that the girl was really suffering seeing Kalea’s condition.
“It’s okay, Luna. Maybe we should keep our distance for now,” Kalea replied as she wiped the tears that were running down her cheeks. Even though in her heart, she was very hurt. It turned out that Aluna was forbidden to be friends with her again.
“But I can’t stand it like that! You’re my best friend, we’ve been together much longer. I can’t be silent when you’re down.” Aluna held Kalea’s shoulders, her gaze was very serious. “Everything will go back to the way it was. You’ll be fine, Lea. It’s only a matter of time, right?”
Kalea smiled bitterly, she knew Aluna just wanted to cheer her up. However, not everything will really return to the way it used to be. She lost everything she fought for all this time, and she will never be able to achieve it again because the secret that she is a sugar baby has been revealed.
