RANG!!
Everyone in class loosened up when the first bell for recess rang. Lily perked up excitedly, eyes blazing as she turned on Penny’s desk. But just as she did, Penny already stood up and walked away.
"Penny?" Lily called when Penny was close to her desk. "Penny, where are you going?"
Penny just smiled. She would have to save a soul, was what she wanted to say. "I need to do something."
"All alone?" Lily’s face formed into a puppy about to be abandoned. "I need to talk to you about the fan club."
At this point, Penny was already allergic to the word fans club.
"I’ll talk to you in a bit. This is just a bit important."
The moment those words flew out of Penny’s mouth, she also bolted away like a flash of lightning. Only the faint gust of wind was what Lily could catch because of how fast Penny was.
"But... this is also important..." Lily muttered to herself, and then she sighed sharply. "Well, I’ll just tell her about when the official assembly would be."
Lily didn’t think much of it anymore as she happily turned in Ginnie’s direction. "Ginnie~!" she called excitedly and jumped away from her seat, ready to talk about the fans’ club the two of them founded.
Patricia who was watching this, scoffed in dismay. "Nina, look at those losers."
"Patricia..." Nina chuckled weakly as she looked at her friend. "Don’t bother with them anymore." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
"Mhmp!" Patricia crossed her arms. Of course, she couldn’t be bothered anymore. ’That stupid Lily! Of all the people she could be friends with, she chose to mingle with peasants like Ginnie and Penny.’
Patricia hated to see this friendship because, in her eyes, it was strange. Lily was obviously not on the same level as Ginnie and Penny, but those two peasants talked to Lily as if they were equals. Even so, Patricia couldn’t meddle. As much as she hated it, she couldn’t fight Lily since Lily’s family was also influential and Patricia didn’t want to put the Miller Family in a terrible plight.
"Patricia," Nina pursed her lips, waiting for Patricia to look at her. "That keychain I lent you... do you still have it?"
"The keychain?" Patricia tilted her head to the side. "Did you give me any keychain?"
"Yes. The one I got when I officially became a member of Ray’s fan club."
Patricia furrowed her brows and pondered. "Well, maybe I forgot about it. I’ll look for it."
"Thank you." Nina smiled in satisfaction before she glanced at the door nervously. ’Did Penny go to the headmaster’s office?’
Nina balled her hands into a tight fist, secretly clenching her teeth. She then glanced at Patricia once more.
’Even if she gets angry, I have no choice,’ she told herself. ’I can’t just fall when everything is already falling out of my hands. Patricia will surely get saved because she’s from the Miller Family. She’d surely get a lighter punishment if she took the fall.’
Once Nina convinced herself to make herself feel better, a relieved smile turned up on her face. As long as she could continue going to this school and as long as she could defend herself, there were more chances of discrediting Penny.
If Patricia took the fall, everyone would think Penny was just stirring trouble for her. If everyone would see this, her parents would lift her ban from the Bennet Mansion. They’d feel sorry for her as well.
