She didn’t hold back with Danica.

“Yeah,” Cassia replied.

Danica didn’t expect Cassia to actually answer. She froze and didn’t know what to say next.

Cassia glanced at her sideways and gave a cold little smile.

Please, do you think I can’t see through that?

“Since that’s the case, then, Cassia-” Lilian began.

“Not interested,” Cassia cut in flatly.

She didn’t look at Danica again. Instead, she leaned forward and rested her head on the desk.

Lilian’s smile stiffened; she was speechless.

She knew Cassia’s temper well and didn’t dare to push her.

Last time, when Alfen signed Cassia up for the volleyball camp without asking, Cassia almost got into a fight with him.

Cassia’s refusal made some classmates unhappy.

“It’s just singing. What’s so hard about that?”

“Yeah. No team spirit at all!”

Rosalie spoke up for Cassia. “Oh, please. You all ignore and exclude her every day, and now you talk about team spirit? Singing is easy, right? Then go up there yourself!”

The class monitor hit the nail on the head. Even though some students were annoyed, they only dared to complain under their breath.

So what now? If Cassia didn’t go on stage, their class had nothing impressive to offer.

Students whispered and argued among themselves.

Cassia acted like none of it concerned her. She lay on her desk and played on her phone.

Just as the mood in the classroom grew tense and awkward, Sacha slowly raised her hand, shaking a little.

“Um, Ms. Reed, I…” she said.

“Hmm? Sacha, do you have a suggestion?” Lilian asked, surprised. Sacha was usually very quiet and easy to miss.

“I can sing too.”

Lilian remembered now. Sacha liked singing. In 11th grade, she had even won an award in the campus “Top Ten Singers” competition.

But Sacha rarely stood out. Her grades were average, and she kept to herself, so Lilian hadn’t paid her much attention.

“Then you’ll do it,” Lilian said. Cassia didn’t want to perform anyway. And Lilian had never heard Cassia sing, so she didn’t know her level. At least Sacha had won an award before.

Once the performance for the Spring Gala was decided, Lilian started the lesson.

Danica stared at Cassia, grinding her teeth. Just wait, I won’t let this go so easily.

At noon, while having lunch with Draven in an office inside the administration building, Cassia scooped up a piece of meat with a fork and mentioned it casually. “There’s a carnival at school on Spring Gala.”

“Mhm. Mr. Burton told me about it,” Draven replied. “He said it’s a tradition at this school.”

Why did the girl suddenly bring this up?

Cassia poured the meat and its sauce over her ride.

“They said the Spring Gala is only fun if you go with someone important.”

Someone important?

Draven’s hand paused midair as he picked up food. He looked up at Cassia.

After a brief second of silence, he asked, “Do you want to go?”

Cassia remained silent.

She stirred her food and glanced at Draven for a second, then lowered her head again.

She felt a little shy, but Cassia wasn’t used to lying.

“Yeah.”

Draven normally had no interest in events like this. He always thought they were childish.

But if she wanted to go, he could give it a try.

“Alright,” he said. “I’ll go with you.”

He agreed?

Cassia suddenly looked up.

The sharpness in her eyes was gone. The cold distance she usually carried had softened.

For the first time, there was a gentle warmth there, mixed with emotions that were hard to explain.

She kept looking at Draven until his ears turned red, and he ended up eating three full servings of pasta.

December 31st arrived; the Spring Gala was finally here.

As night fell, Zrario High was lit up with colorful lights. The whole campus buzzed with joy and celebration.

Ethan wasn’t a student at Zrario High, but thanks to one of his buddies, he managed to join.

More importantly, that buddy had just told him there was a girl at Zrario High named Cassia.
