The Returned Heiress Who Had It All (Cassia) novel Chapter 419

Chapter 419 Persistent

Selena’s chest rose and fell with anger, but she couldn’t argue back.

Because Lilian wasn’t wrong. Dating would deduct a large amount of conduct points, and without passing conduct, there was no meeting Vego University’s recommendation requirements.

Brie and Kaleb had practically already secured those recommendation spots, and now, this stunt put everything in jeopardy.

And it was all because her two star students had decided to date at school.

They had completely humiliated her.

Selena slammed her hand against the desk.

“You two were dating? Did you think you could fool the teachers forever? This is outrageous! Do you even know how many conduct points you’ve lost? Huh? Do you still want that Vego University recommendation or not? No wonder your grades haven’t improved. So this was the reason!”

In reality, both Brie’s and Kaleb’s grades were steady. They were consistently in the top three of the entire grade, neither rising nor falling. But Selena was furious, and her words were fueled by anger.

Brie and Kaleb stayed silent.

The two of them stood side by side with their heads lowered, enduring Selena’s scolding.

Ten minutes later, Selena finally ran out of steam.

“I’m so mad I could explode! Since you’ve already broken up, we’ll leave it at that. But there’s only one Vego University recommendation spot left now. I expect you both to work harder!”

What? Only one spot left?

Brie and Kaleb both snapped their heads up.

Weren’t there supposed to be two recommendation spots? Why is there only one now?

Who got the other one?

They wanted to ask, but one look at Selena’s furious expression, and the question died in their throats.

After leaving the office, the two of them walked down the hallway one after the other, both looking grim.

Each were lost in their own thoughts.

Kaleb’s mind was filled with Cassia’s face, while Brie thought to herself, Even with the conduct points deducted, that Vego University recommendation will still be mine. All I’ve done is date someone. Compared to Cassia, my conduct score is still much higher.

Besides, May is coming soon. I will be heading to Vrastin to compete in the Olympiad math competition.

I don’t need first place. As long as I make the top ten, my chances at the Vego University recommendation are still strong.

After school at noon, Cassia headed toward the office building as usual.

Chapter 419 Persistent

Draven stood in front of the floor–to–ceiling window in his office, arms crossed, gazing out at the field.

“Boss, staring at Ms. Wood again?” Seven pushed open the office door, walking in with takeout from Atelier Zrario in hand.

Sterling followed him inside.

After setting the food down, Seven walked over to Draven’s side.

The moment he arrived, he saw Draven’s brows knit together, a shadow of cold irritation gathering in his eyes.

For the heir of the Greys–who could remain calm even if a mountain collapsed in front of him–to show that kind of expression, there was only one reason. Cassia.

Brie was already publicly humiliated that morning. What set him off again now?

Curious, Seven followed Draven’s line of sight.

Oh.

So that’s it.

Cassia was walking beneath the shade of green trees lining the campus path. Kaleb was walking toward her and stopped directly in

front of her.

“Something you need?” Cassia didn’t stop walking. She merely glanced at Kaleb with detached indifference.

Other students passing by slowed their steps, gradually drifting closer.

More drama.

Seven felt lucky. From this high office building, with such a clear view, even if a crowd gathered below, Draven wouldn’t miss a single second of Cassia.

Honestly, Mr. Grey sure knows how to pick a spot.

Seeing Cassia continue walking, Kaleb had no choice but to walk beside her. “I’m sorry,” he said.

Cassia’s delicate brows furrowed slightly, and she finally stopped.

She genuinely didn’t understand what he meant.

The surrounding students were equally confused. Why is Kaleb apologizing to Cassia out of nowhere?
