Selena knew a guaranteed admission slot to Vego University was every student’s dream at Zrario High, and that included Brie Wood–so she said it on purpose to provoke Brie, to make her study harder and fight to take back first place on the next exam.

Sure enough, Brie fell right into Selena’s trap and truly grew anxious and unsettled.

She was afraid Cassia might outshine her, afraid she wouldn’t get the Vego University recommendation, afraid she’d fall out of favor with the Woods.

“Sigh, I’ve said what a teacher should say. I just hope you feel some competitive pressure, double down, and push Cassia down.”

Selena patted Brie’s shoulder and said, “Alright, that’s all. You can head back now.”

Brie answered with a soft “mm,” then turned and walked out of the office.

Her mood plunged to rock bottom, and before she knew it, she’d wandered up to the school rooftop.

Was that Cassia Wood really that formidable? That exceptional? Could she really single- handedly drag the advanced class’s average score up by so many notches?

Brie felt like her lungs were about to explode.

Because it was finals week, students only came to pick up their results; after that, the homeroom teacher would hold a brief class meeting, and then everyone could go home for the break.

Brie set her hands on the rooftop railing, staring blankly at the stream of students pouring out the school gate below; a trace of barely concealed malice flickered across her pretty, well- behaved face.

Cassia–this, all of this, is thanks to you!

Why did you have to show up in this world? Why come back to the Woods? Why block my light? Why can you so easily snatch away the honors that should have been mine?

If only Cassia weren’t here…

If only Cassia were dead…

Perhaps even Brie herself hadn’t realized how dark and terrifying her thoughts and the

expression on her face were at that moment.

Suddenly, the rooftop door clicked open, and Danica Woods came up stairs.

“Brie! Don’t do anything rash!”

At first glance, she saw Brie standing by the edge; seeing the grave look on her sister’s face as she gazed down, Danica’s first thought was, is Brie really going to kill herself because Cassia beat her twice?

Terrified, she rushed forward, hugging Bric and yanking her back from the edge.

“Brie, sob… Brie, don’t you dare, please! You’re my best sister–if you die, I’ll be heartbroken!”

“Uh…”

Brie was startled by Danica’s sudden bear hug.

What nonsense are you spouting? When did I say I wanted to die?

Please, don’t joke like that, okay? I don’t have the slightest intention of that–I’m only thinking about how to make Cassia die!

That was Brie’s truest thought in this moment.

But how could she possibly tell Danica what she was really thinking?

Brie gently set her hand over Danica’s, pried her arms from around her waist, held her hands in her own, and said softly, “Danica, I’m fine. I was just feeling stifled, so I came up here to get some air.”

“Waaaah … okay. You scared me half to death…”

Danica truly had been frightened; her eyes were shimmering, tears brimming in her lashes.

Seeing how much Danica cared about her, Brie suddenly realized this girl genuinely stood on her side.

Don’t forget the true second heiress of the Woods was right here with her.

Heh…

Joy rose in Brie’s chest, and her confidence swelled.

Cassia, with Danica as my trump card, you’re in for trouble.
