11:30 AM.
More and more guests poured into the banquet hall.
Clara stood by the entrance in her casual clothes.
Yet, positioned beside the lavishly dressed Serena and Vera, she wasn't overshadowed in the slightest.
Having been outplayed, the mere sight of Clara infuriated Vera. To keep from losing her temper in public, she pivoted and headed inside to entertain the guests.
Clara and Serena stood on opposite sides of the grand entrance.
A charter bus pulled up to the curb. It was Clara's classmates from the Honors Class.
The students from Springfield First Academy were mostly from ordinary families and had never set foot in an elite establishment like this.
As they filed off the bus, they looked intensely nervous.
Seeing the other guests strolling by in tailored tuxedos and glittering gowns only amplified their anxiety.
"Hey! Chelsea! Over here!"
Clara greeted them with a radiant smile.
Seeing that the guest of honor was wearing nothing but a shirt and jeans, a collective sigh of relief swept through the students.
"Clara, your family is so rich..." Chelsea murmured. "My dad came here for dinner with his boss once, and the meal cost over five thousand dollars."
The class president cleared his throat. "We felt a bit awkward crashing such a fancy party for a free meal, so we all pitched in and got you a gift."
He handed Clara a surprisingly heavy box. "It's a custom plaque wishing you academic success. You can hang it in your study. Here's to hoping you get into your dream college."
"The entire class signed the back."
