Chapter 1866

“It‘s not like I need the money.”

“She‘s the reason that you were in pain. You would usually make her pay.” Waylon‘s eyes were filled with
purpose.

Colton turned away. “There‘s no need for me to be petty.” Waylon chuckled and said, “It‘s not like you‘re
not usually petty.”

Colton was rendered speechless.

“Freyja is a good person.”

Colton suddenly looked at him. “That‘s your opinion about her?”

Waylon smiled but didn‘t answer.

After being quiet for a moment, Colton looked away and said, “What do you think about her?” Waylon
squinted and asked back, “What do you think?”

Colton said in a low voice, “I won‘t agree if you want to make her my sister–in–law.” Waylon‘s eyes
darted before he suddenly laughed. “I‘m not going to steal my brother‘s girl.” Colton was startled and
explained, “I didn‘t say that she was mine. I just think that she‘s not good enough for you. She doesn‘t
have the potential to become my sister–in law.”

Waylon‘s smile grew wider. He could see what was going on, but he didn‘t want to say it out loud. “If I
meet someone I adore, I will lower my standards. There‘s no such thing as being good enough or not. I
don‘t care about the rules.”

Colton choked. “But she‘s off limits.”



Waylon smiled. “How will I know if I don‘t try?”

Colton took a deep breath and asked, “What you said just now was all b*llshit?”

Waylon nodded and said in a serious tone, “I won‘t steal my brother‘s girl, but is she your girl?”

Colton didn‘t know what to say to that.

The next day, Colton was discharged from the hospital.

Spencer, the spiky – haired friend , went to pick him up. Once Colton got into the car, Spencer clicked his
tongue.“ I heard that that woman pushed you down the stairs. That was too much. How could she injure
you like that?” Colton hated the smell in his car, so he lowered the window. “Who said she pushed me?”

“That‘s what everyone in the college is saying. Freyja pushed you down the stairs and intentionally hurt
you.”

Colton frowned. “Who spread that rumor?”

“The girls next door. They said that Freyja confessed her feelings to you, but you rejected her. Thus, she
pushed you down the stairs.”

Spencer looked at him and smiled. “You know some of the girls have a crush on you. Freyja kept coming
over to see you previously and even brought food and drinks. When you fell, Freyja was there, so people
speculated.”

Colton rubbed his temples while his breathing became heavy. “Get them to shut up.”

Spencer shrugged. “So what if they shut up? You‘re a notable person, so the professors must be aware
of your injury. They probably are speaking to Freyja right now.”



Meanwhile, at the college administrative office...

Freyja stood in front of the table where the professors and vice principal were.

The vice principal knocked on the table with a stoic expression. “Ms. Pruitt, there‘s a rumor going around
that you‘ve intentionally injured a student. Coleman Goldmann from the business school is hurt and in
the hospital now. What do you have to say about this?”

Freyja looked down. “I‘m sorry, I didn‘t mean to.”

Seeing that she had admitted and looked sincere, he didn‘t make it difficult for her. “You‘re
temporarily suspended because your actions caused harm to another student. Usually, this would
warrant an expulsion , but since you‘ve admitted to your mistake, we won‘t make it hard for you.
Unfortunately, we still need to punish you. You may return when we inform you about it.”

Freyja nodded. She left the office while Colton walked toward her.
