Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 65

Ivan had a serious look on his face. Lilly asked, “Are you unhappy?”

Ivan turned around, “No.”

Lilly stopped asking questions and sat in her seat. She put her hands on her knees just like Ivan did.

Animaux Private Academy was the best private academy in Clodston. People who studied in the academy were all from rich families. The Miller family was considered the worst in terms of their financial condition.

Cheryl got off her car and waved goodbye to her mother. She was stiff as she looked around to make sure no classmates saw her going to the academy in a car.

Unlike other academies, the rich students at Animaux Private Academy all took the bus.

The bright yellow bus was covered in thick armor. The driver and teacher on the bus were all ex-Special Operations Forces members to ensure the students’ safety.

The monthly fee for the academy bus was 100 thousand dollars per person. That meant parents had to spend more than a million dollars a year on transportation alone.

Cheryl’s family was not willing to spend that money. Chery was embarrassed because her mother was the one who fetched her all the time.

Cheryl’s mother reminded her to be careful. When Cheryl saw the academy bus arriving, she quickly said, “I know, Mommy! Go home quickly!”

She was afraid that people would laugh at her because she could not afford to take the bus.

Cheryl’s mother wanted to say something, but she drove away instead.

The bus drove slowly inside the academy. Cheryl tried her best to follow it. When she walked with the bus, people would think that she also rode on the bus. It was all part of her plans. When the doors of the bus opened, Cheryl walked slowly. To outsiders, she would look like someone who got off the bus, and to the students taking the bus, she would look like someone who walked past the bus.

Cheryl quickly walked inside the academy when her friends ran over to greet her.

“Cheryl, you’ve just arrived.”

Cheryl nodded and said, “Yes, the bus was a little late today.”

The bus was indeed five minutes late. Her friends wondered why it was late.

Cheryl did not know as well. She shook her head and said, “Perhaps the driver was feeling sick.”

It was the first time that the bus was late. Cheryl was confused as well.

Her two friends looked at her with envy, “It’s still amazing that you get to take the bus.”

“That’s right. Only a handful of people can take the bus to our academy.”

Cheryl said with a smile, “It’s nothing much. Taking the bus is the same as riding a car.”

People liked how humble Cheryl was.

As Cheryl walked towards the classroom, she met more students who were looking at her in a different way.

“Wow, Cheryl! You attended Taylor Entertainment’s ribbon-cutting ceremony, right?”

“I saw you in my brother’s picture on Facebook!”
