I’m Someone Else

Irieson’s University of Technology had been elated when they first heard the news of Thomas being the top scorer in his SATs. It had been a long while since Irieson’s University of Technology had any top scorers in their school—many of the talented and smart students had gone to other local universities. Right when Irieson’s University of Technology was celebrating the recruitment of a top scorer, they received the shocking news of Thomas giving up on his opportunity to study. They were devastated to hear that Thomas was going to enlist in the army instead.

Meanwhile, Veronica, who had been in charge of recruiting students, turned into the university’s scapegoat. She ended up being punished by the university for this incident. The university’s harsh treatment left a deep scar in Veronica’s career even until current times. “You b*stard! You’re the reason Veronica was punished by the university, and you’re the reason she hasn’t gotten a promotion in years!” Ophelie grew increasingly emotional as she spoke. She picked up the glass of wine on the table before splashing it in Thomas’ direction.

“That’s too much!” Norman slammed his palm against the table as he got to his feet. His eyes were wide with fury, and he raised his hand up as if he were about to give Ophelie a slap. Ophelie was simply too rude. How could she be so rude to our guest? She’s embarrassing us Pearsons!

“Dad!” Ophelie never expected Norman to get mad at her over someone like Thomas. Ophelie had always been a rather spoiled, entitled character who rarely reflected on her own actions. She put all the blame on Thomas instead. We wouldn’t face so many issues if it wasn’t because of Thomas. If looks could kill, Thomas would’ve been murdered by Ophelie a few days ago. “Hmph!” Ophelie scoffed before she turned and headed upstairs.

“I’m so sorry, Mr. Clifford. My youngest daughter is way too spoiled. I’m going to teach her a lesson later!” Norman hurriedly handed Thomas some tissue, and Thomas merely wiped his face without making any comments.
