Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Change Your Name to Beatrice Lynn

"Hey, Cecilia Sterling clearly said within a week. How come you’re changing it to three days?"

"Exactly. If we’re going to hold her to her word, it’s only fair to stick to the original terms Cecilia mentioned."

Some students spoke up to support Cecilia Sterling, but others, just loving the drama, egged them on.

"If she really had the means, would three days or five days even matter? It’s just a matter of placing one order, right?"

"That’s right. If you’ve really got what it takes, time is just a number. You could place the order now and have it delivered by tonight."

Hearing this, Beatrice Lynn deliberately raised her voice and looked at Cecilia Sterling. "Just three days. Do you dare take the bet?"

She wanted to humiliate Cecilia Sterling in front of everyone. A week was too long; she couldn’t wait to see Cecilia scurry out of Lorcain Tech with her tail between her legs.

’The very thought is hilarious.’

"Cecilia, don’t listen to her." Shawn Lane saw that the two were actually making a bet, and with Beatrice Lynn being so aggressive, it was clear she wasn’t leaving Cecilia any way out. He shook his head and said urgently, "Without me, how could you possibly..."

"What’s so impossible?" Cecilia Sterling shot him a cold glance and sneered, "Shawn Lane, do you really know me? Am I, Cecilia Sterling, the kind of person who makes empty promises?"

Shawn Lane froze at her words, feeling as if her question had jolted him.

’That’s right. Cecilia Sterling never promised anything beyond her capabilities. If it was something she couldn’t or wouldn’t do, she always refused outright.’

Like the time he asked her to wear black stockings for him.

Cecilia Sterling then turned to Beatrice Lynn. "Forget three days. Let’s make it today."

As soon as she finished speaking, she picked up her phone, called back the delivery driver from just now, and said softly once connected, "Excuse me, could you bring it to the cafeteria entrance?"

Seeing Cecilia Sterling’s actions, a commotion rippled through the surrounding crowd.

"What does that mean? It’s already here?"

"Could be bubble tea she ordered."

"Then what did she mean by ’forget three days, make it today’? It obviously means she’s already bought them!"

"No way! Did Cecilia Sterling really buy them? Four astronomical telescopes?"

Beatrice Lynn couldn’t help but feel a little panicked hearing this, but she forced herself to remain calm, giving herself a mental pep talk. She still said contemptuously to Cecilia Sterling, "Stop putting on an act."

"Heh. If the sky fell, your mouth would be there to hold it up." Cecilia Sterling let out a cold laugh, then turned and pulled Estelle toward the cafeteria entrance.

Seeing this, the surrounding students abandoned their food and followed them. Only those farther away cast confused glances in their direction, clearly unaware of the interesting events unfolding.

At the cafeteria entrance, a crowd surrounded Cecilia Sterling. Following her gaze toward the school’s main gate, they saw an SF Express van slowly driving toward them, led by campus security.

Normally, delivery vehicles like this weren’t allowed on campus; entry was only permitted under special circumstances. The moment everyone saw the van approaching, they grew excited.

’Is that the van delivering the astronomical telescopes?’ Shawn Lane was utterly dumbfounded.

The van slowly stopped in front of the crowd. A staff member in an SF Express uniform got out of the passenger seat and asked, "Which of you is Miss Sterling?"

"I am." Cecilia Sterling walked forward calmly and smiled. "Thank you. You can unload the items right here; this spot is fine."
