Cassia looked at Alfen, her furrowed brows radiating an aura that said don’t mess with me.

“Did I agree to this? What gives you the right to make decisions for me?!”

Alfen met Cassia’s cold, irritated face and felt a chill run down his spine.

Thinking back on what he had just said, it seemed he really hadn’t asked for Cassia’s consent before making the decision for her.

But he had been too anxious. The roster for the volleyball tournament had already been submitted. According to the rules, the number of registered participants couldn’t be changed.

Danica’s hand was injured and she couldn’t play. They couldn’t just give up on the tournament because of that, right?

“Cassia, you’re a member of this school. Now that Danica is injured, since you can play volleyball, you have an obligation to step up for our school.” Lilian saw that Alfen had been shut down by Cassia, so she had no choice but to step in herself, keeping her tone as soft as possible.

Danica was her student, and so was Cassia. Even if Cassia had a lot of flaws, she couldn’t play favorites too obviously.

The moment Lilian finished speaking, Cassia put her head down on the table and went to sleep.

Well, this was awkward.

Rosalie and Sacha didn’t think Cassia was being disrespectful to Alfen or Lilian. What Alfen had said earlier really was out of line…

Even though Lilian had tried to smooth things over with a gentler tone afterward, that didn’t mean what Alfen said before could just be ignored.

It was like making a mistake. Admitting it showed honesty, but an apology didn’t erase what had been done.

And Alfen hadn’t even apologized.

Rosalie slowly raised her hand.

“Mr. Hoge, Cassia has an obligation to help our school, but she also has the right to refuse. I’ve

competed before too. I’ll do it.”

Cassia lifted her eyelids and glanced at Rosalie.

Lilian and Alfen thought the first part of what Rosalie said was fair enough, but…

It wasn’t like Alfen hadn’t seen Rosalie play volleyball.

“No. You’re not as good as Cassia. You can’t replace Danica!”

A wave of murmurs rippled through the crowd. For the first time, Rosalie felt what it was like to be singled out.

Was this what Cassia went through every day?

She had only been dismissed by a teacher and laughed at by classmates once, and she already felt like the sky was falling. But Cassia…

Rosalie’s fists trembled as she clenched them tight. She bit her lip and stood there stubbornly, feeling like she had been abandoned on a deserted island in the middle of the ocean, completely alone.

Tch! Whatever!

Cassia stood up abruptly and walked toward Danica.

What was she doing?

Before Danica could react, Cassia grabbed her right hand.

“What are you doing?”

Danica was startled by Cassia’s sudden move. She struggled, trying to pull her hand back.

But Cassia’s grip was shockingly strong. Her hand was like a crab’s claw, locking Danica’s right hand in place so she couldn’t move.

Unable to break free, Danica tried to use her left hand to pinch the back of Cassia’s hand and pry it off.

But before she could move, she saw the sharp, icy glare Cassia shot at her.

She froze.

Cassia looked at Danica’s hand and pressed her thumb against the center of Danica’s wrist,

applying light pressure.

No redness. No swelling. The bones weren’t out of place either.

There was no sign of pain on Danica’s face.

She wasn’t injured at all.

Cassia stared into Danica’s eyes, her gaze frosted over with cold, making Danica’s scalp tingle.

“Cassia, what are you doing? Danica’s hand is injured!” Brie was afraid Cassia would figure out the truth, so she quickly cried out in alarm.

Her outburst triggered a wave of complaints from the other students, all grumbling about how Cassia had no sympathy.

“Danica’s hand is hurt that badly, and she’s still grabbing it!”

Cassia held onto Danica’s right hand, staring her down, and said coolly, “Her hand isn’t injured at all.”

She said it loud enough for everyone present to hear.

What? Not injured?

The teachers and students stared wide–eyed.

Danica’s scheme had been exposed. She wanted to crawl into a hole.

“You … you’re not a doctor. What makes you think my hand isn’t injured?”

Cassia found it amusing.

She was a medical prodigy. How could she not tell?

“I can see it.”
