CHAPTER 45: CHAPTER 45: LET’S SEE IF THEY’RE UP TO IT

The next day, both the medical and music departments had a P.E. class in the afternoon, and the two classes met on the sports field.

As soon as Yara Shawnessy saw Cassia Everett, she immediately turned into a sycophant and exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Oh my God, Cassia, you look so beautiful today! Director Farber is here today; he’ll definitely choose you for that role!"

Hearing this, Cassia Everett felt extremely pleased inside, but she still modestly said, "Alright, Yara, keep your voice down; everyone looks pretty today. It’s not necessarily me who’ll be chosen!"

Not knowing when Director Farber would arrive, Cassia Everett dared not rest for a moment, constantly making sure her makeup was intact to leave a good impression on him.

At the same time, she wanted to prove to those who said she wasn’t as pretty as Serena Everett, that she was indeed more beautiful and that she was the only suitable campus queen at Imperia University!

People are visual creatures, and with Cassia’s gentle and humble demeanor, it was hard for everyone not to feel a bit more fondness towards her, prompting them to speak up.

"Cassia Everett is not just beautiful; she got into Imperia University by her own merit, unlike those who came in through connections. The campus queen could only be her!"

"Exactly, I seriously doubt the eyes of those who say Serena Everett is prettier than Cassia. Cassia is clearly more beau—"

They didn’t finish before Serena Everett strolled over, her delicate porcelain white face unadorned, skin whiter than snow, especially with her stunningly attractive fox-like eyes.

The words claiming Cassia was prettier than Serena suddenly couldn’t be spoken anymore.

Seeing everyone’s attention shift to Serena, Cassia’s expression turned completely sour. She had dressed up meticulously today, yet Serena’s mere appearance stole all her thunder!

Noticing Cassia’s unhappy look, Yara Shawnessy cautiously spoke,

"Don’t worry, Cassia. I’m doing everything you said. Now, our whole class dislikes Serena and no one will talk to her. In a few days, I’ll lead in isolating and boycotting her. She won’t last at Imperia University for long!"

After all, no one’s mental resilience is strong enough to endure being isolated and boycotted by the whole class. This tactic had already driven away countless people Cassia disapproved of, and it would surely drive out the country bumpkin Serena too!

Hearing this, Cassia’s expression finally relaxed a bit, and Yara, seeing this, hurried to continue with the flattery.

"Besides, once Director Farber comes to the university to pick someone, and you get chosen, you’ll be a big star. That country bumpkin Serena from the countryside is no match for comparison with you!"

This statement perfectly hit Cassia’s soft spot, but she still found Serena’s face increasingly annoying.

She leaned towards Yara and whispered in her ear, and Yara immediately nodded repeatedly, "Got it, Cassia, I know what to do now!"

Trying to scheme against her?

Serena Everett keenly sensed the malicious intent from Cassia and Yara, her crimson moist lips curling up in a mocking arc.

We’ll see if they have the capability.

With many people on the field, Cassia and Yara stealthily mixed into the crowd and neared Serena, then the two simultaneously stuck out their feet stealthily.

Cassia’s lips curled into a cold smile; no matter which way Serena went, she would trip. A fall could result in a serious injury; it’d be great if Serena’s face got disfigured!

Just as Cassia was gloating, she suddenly felt a strong force from behind pushing her forward, and Yara felt the same. Before they could cry out for help, they instantly fell into a heap.

Yara’s head harshly struck Cassia’s face, knocking out two of her teeth, making the scene both comical and pitiful.

The audience was in an uproar, and upon regaining their senses, soft laughter erupted.

They knew they shouldn’t laugh out loud, but they just couldn’t help themselves...

Listening to the laughter, Cassia’s face turned extremely unpleasant, and she immediately took out a small mirror from her pocket.

Her teeth...

How could she attend Director Farber’s audition looking like this now?!

Cassia couldn’t handle her now ridiculous and comical appearance, almost passing out from anger. But seeing Serena standing lazily aside watching the scene, the venomous resentment in her eyes almost overflowed.

Falling to such a sorry state, Serena wouldn’t have it easy either!

Cassia’s mind spun, and she immediately started crying pitifully, only her missing two front teeth made it seem all the more ridiculous and laughable.

"Sister, why did you purposely trip me? Making me fall into this state..."

Serena looked down at her, speaking carelessly, "Do you have any proof that I tripped you?"

With that one sentence, Cassia’s prepared words were entirely blocked, her face instantly stiffened.

She indeed had no evidence; she only felt a strong push from her back, causing her to collide with Yara, but there was no proof.

"Accusing someone without proof?" Serena’s tone remained casual yet inexplicably oppressive.

The crowd couldn’t help but chime in.

"Yeah, accusing without evidence is slander, isn’t it?"

"Right, it seems like she’s deliberately accusing Serena. Aren’t they sisters? How could someone do that to her sister..."

Hearing the queries, Cassia’s face immediately changed. She couldn’t let the gentle and kind image she had built at Imperia University crumble!

"Sister...you misunderstood me, I didn’t mean that..."

Serena gave her a lazy glance, speaking in a tone laden with derision.

"Your speech is leaking air, you’d better keep your mouth shut."

Nothing could beat such a stabbing remark.

The people couldn’t help but laugh again.

Cassia was truly driven to tears from anger, wishing not to stay at such an embarrassing place, she scrambled off the ground, covering her mouth, and rushed forward.

Yara too felt thoroughly shamed, covering her head injured by Cassia’s teeth with an unpleasant expression, "Clear out, clear out...no more watching!"

Soon, the crowd dispersed, leaving just Yara and Serena.

Her eyes, like they were dipped in poison, stared menacingly, "I know it was you who pushed us, Serena. Just wait and see; I’ll make you pay!"

"Oh." Serena replied nonchalantly, "I’ll be waiting."
