Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 897

He occasionally glanced at his watch, as if waiting for someone. He was surrounded by students, all holding up their phones and taking pictures as if he were an exotic animal at the zoo.

And a rare species at that.

Everyone knew that Shanley Schwartz was a notoriously private person who rarely made public appearances. Even when he did, he was a world away from ordinary people like them.

To see him in the flesh at the school gate was unbelievable. He was so handsome he didn't seem real.

But what was this titan doing at Eclara University? And why was he waiting at the gate instead of in the president's office?

Everyone was completely baffled.

"I'm waiting for my girlfriend."

Shanley's voice cut through the murmurs of the surrounding students. Instead of being annoyed, he answered with surprising patience.

Girlfriend?

The chatter around him instantly grew more complex.

Mr. Schwartz's girlfriend was a student at Eclara University? Who was she? Did anyone know? Which family was she from? What was her major?

To be Mr. Schwartz's girlfriend, she couldn't be just anybody.

As the end of class approached, the crowd at the gate grew larger. The news that Mr. Schwartz himself was there to pick up his girlfriend had spread like wildfire.

"Girlfriend?" Yolanda's brow furrowed deeply when she heard the rumor. "I haven't heard of any top-tier heiresses attending Eclara University."

In her mind, only a woman from the highest echelons of society was worthy of Eclara City's ultimate prize.

"Is he still at the gate?" Yolanda asked.

"Yes!" her classmate replied, grabbing her backpack and rushing out. "Yolanda, are you coming? If not, I'm going ahead."

Even if she couldn't have this rare swan, she had to at least get a look.

"I'm coming."

Yolanda grabbed her bag and hurried to catch up. She had just been on his mother's variety show; surely Shanley would find her somewhat familiar?
