Chapter 451 Quiet Schemes

This time, she had fallen behind Kaleb.

Brie stared at the name in second place on the leaderboard and clenched her teeth.

She had promised Vance she would secure the guaranteed admission spot to Vego University. She had to get it.

Cassia was never strong enough to compete for that spot. Brie finally understood. Kaleb was her real threat.

The teachers had said there was only one guaranteed admission spot left for Vego University.

That spot would go to either her or Kaleb.

Brie felt torn inside. At the same time, a strange panic crept into her chest.

She couldn’t let Kaleb get that spot.

The thought suddenly flashed across her mind, and it shocked even her.

She didn’t want to hurt Kaleb.

The anxiety squeezed her chest. Her breathing turned fast. Her heart hurt.

No. If two people were fighting over one spot, even a 50% chance made her anxious.

Only a 100% chance would make her feel safe.

Before she realized it, her feet had carried her toward the principal’s office, seemingly drawn by something unseen.

The next day, rumors started spreading among the teachers. They said Kaleb was boldly chasing after Cassia.

Harold called a meeting with all the Grade 12 teachers.

“Kaleb has already lost conduct points twice. That’s a serious violation of school rules. And he didn’t make the top ten in the Math Olympiad selection, so he can’t represent the school at the Vrastin competition. It looks like the remaining guaranteed admission spot will most likely go to Brie.”

After Harold said that, another rumor quickly spread through Zrario High. People said the school had two guaranteed spots for Vego University, and one of them had already been decided it would go to Brie.

Kaleb was studying quietly in class, but people kept whispering bad things about him.

After Cassia rejected his confession last time, his parents had scolded him harshly when he got home.

After that, he behaved himself. He studied hard. He didn’t do anything bold or reckless anymore. At most, he looked at Cassia a little too intensely.

So, how did the teachers find out about this?

“Kaleb really brought the situation on himself He ruined his chance at Vego University.”

“Brie is the real winner. She and Kaleb were rivals anyway. Now that Kaleb is out, the spot has to be hers.”

“Hey, wait. Doesn’t our school have two spots? If one goes to Brie, what about the other one?”

“No idea. But Mr. Bell already said it won’t go to Kaleb.”

The whispers stabbed at his ears.

Without thinking, Kaleb looked toward Brie. She was looking at him too.

Their eyes met. Brie looked like someone hiding a guilty secret. The moment their eyes locked–just one second–she quickly looked away.

Kaleb said nothing.

He stared at her quietly.

For some reason, he felt like this whole thing had something to do with her.

That night. Dunstino Bay.

After Seven picked Sterling up from school, he went back to his room and played video games for a while.

After some time, he got bored and quit the game. Then he wandered into the living room.

Draven was playing chess in his room.

Ever since the last time Seven accidentally made him lose a match while bringing him coffee, Seven never dared to bother him during chess again.

With nothing to do, Seven lay on the couch and started chatting with the Blackwater team on his phone.

“How’s training been lately?”

Isaiah was in the team training room. He was holding a meeting when he suddenly got a message from the boss.

“Hold on. The boss just texted me.” Hearing that, the players all leaned over to look at Isaiah’s phone.

Isaiah replied, “Everything is going smoothly.”

There was something else he didn’t say. Obscura might be coming back soon.

He didn’t say it because he wasn’t sure she would actually return. If she suddenly changed her mind, it would sound like he had lied to his boss.

Also, Obscura had a strange character. Since she had previously informed Urban about that, she should retur
