Vance felt extremely embarrassed.

Earlier, he had spoken to Harold with full confidence. Now it turned out Brie had completely misunderstood the situation.

The emotional swing hit harder than a wild roller coaster ride.

Suddenly, one of the male teachers standing in line asked, “Mr. Bell, why exactly did us all here?”

“Mr. Wood thinks one of you is dating his daughter. He wants answers today.”

As soon as Harold said that, all the male teachers exploded with complaints.

“I thought this was something important. You called us in just for that?”

“Yeah! I just got home and hadn’t even rested yet.”

“If this were work, calling us during vacation would make sense. But over something so small? That’s just selfish.”

Vance’s face burned. He had been certain it was a teacher.

He never expected Brie to have gotten it wrong.

It felt like a disgrace in front of everyone.

“Sorry for the trouble my daughter caused you…” Vance kept bowing as he apologized, his face burning with shame.

“That’s enough. Everyone can head home now,” Harold said, dismissing the teachers and giving Vance a way out.

As the male teachers left the office, their complaints continued.

After apologizing to Harold several more times, Vance grabbed Brie and Danica and rushed

out.

“Dad, I…” Brie lowered her head, following behind him awkwardly.

He was walking so fast that she and Danica struggled to keep up.

“Don’t ever bring this up again!” Vance snapped. He yanked open the car door, got in, and slammed it shut loudly.

Danica and Brie fell silent.

It’s way too embarrassing in front of so many people!

Still fuming, Vance realized his daughters weren’t in the car yet. He rolled down the window and leaned out impatiently.

“What are you standing around for? Get in! We’re leaving!”

Startled like two frightened birds, Brie and Danica hurriedly got in.

The car sped down the road.

Inside, neither of them dared to speak.

Back at home, Alfen sat on the couch and turned on his favorite sports channel.

As he watched a volleyball match, his mind drifted back to Cassia’s powerful block on the beach that day. The more he thought about it, the harder it was to let go.

He had missed the perfect chance in Harold’s office. He should’ve talked to Cassia’s father then.

He grabbed his phone, called Lilian to get the Woods‘ contact info, and then dialed the number.

Vance, Danica, and Brie were still on their way home. Geneva was busy cooking, so Victoria answered the phone.

Seeing a call from Cassia’s school teacher, Victoria immediately assumed Cassia had messed up again.

“Hello?”

“Hello, this is Cassia’s P.E. teacher, Alfen Hoge.”

“Did Cassia-”

“Yes, it’s about Cassia!”

Victoria frowned deeply.

After the computer password incident in Cassia’s room a few days earlier, her attitude toward Cassia had softened a bit.

Hearing her name come up again made Victoria’s head ache.

What did Cassia do this time?

“During winter camp, I organized a beach volleyball match for the 12th grade. Cassia’s team took first place in the entire grade. That’s when I realized she has amazing athletic talent, especially in volleyball.”

He continued enthusiastically, “I can guarantee that if she starts proper training early at a volleyball training camp, she’ll bring honor to our country someday!”

Victoria was completely stunned.

“You mean Cassia? Not Danica or Brie?”

Her question made Alfen pause.

“Yes, Cassia. Not Danica, and definitely not Brie. Danica has always been athletic, but Cassia? I’m not exaggerating–she’s a rare genius. A once–in–a–decade talent. I’ve been encouraging her to join a volleyball training camp and represent Zrario High in the city volleyball tournament, but she keeps refusing.”

The more he spoke, the more excited he became. “If she does well at the camp and wins the city tournament, she could even get guaranteed admission to Vego University!”

The longer Victoria listened, the more confused she felt.

She seriously doubted the “once–in–a–decade genius” he described was the same Cassia she knew.

In her memory, Cassia had always been hopeless.

“Mr. Hoge, are you sure all of this is true?” Victoria felt like she was stuck in a fog.

Alfen found her question odd. “You didn’t know?”

“How would I know? You’re the one who just called to tell me,” Victoria replied, just as confused.
