Leanna By Miu 97 Chapter 42: Unsheathe

"Oh my G.o.d! I can't believe that the Jansen's family Princess is also attending our university!"

"I'm so glad I decided to enroll here."

"Wait till I messaged this to my friends. They'll be so jealous they wish they could transfer schools."

Whispers resounded, but Emery appeared not to hear anything. With her grace and poise, she swayed inside the hall.

"I wonder if I can just have an ounce of her grace. . . I'll be accepted . . . ," Zoe mumbled. She said it so low, but my ear still caught a bit of it.

I pretended I didn't hear anything and strode inside the hall. Zoe quickly followed behind.

Murmurs, buzzing noises and unfamiliar varied crowds greeted us in the large hall. I roamed my eyes and spotted Holley, Sophia, Nixon, and Rowan together with the other students surrounding Emery.

I s.h.i.+fted my gaze and swept another area.

. . .

. . .

None.

I was hoping to find a familiar face, but all I saw were children of influential politicians, celebrities, tyc.o.o.ns. Some who were ordinary were circling at the far corner of the room. They were easily distinguishable with all the rich kids forming their own cliques and circles.

I guess no one knows how to discriminate themselves than the ones being discriminated.

"Do you know anyone here?" I asked Zoe.

"Yes, but I'm not exactly close to them," she admitted, head lowered a little.

I frowned. "You know. You can be yourself if you're with me. No need to act all goody-goody with me. It just makes me s.h.i.+ver with all the awkwardness."

Zoe's eyes zeroed on me, expression solemn. She grinned, showing her canines, and shrugged her shoulders. Her whole demure aura faded, replaced by a wild, untamed lioness.

"You know; Nick broke our engagement last night," she said, voice flat.

I didn't respond.

"We found him and that wh.o.r.e together in the upper toilet. He was brought to the hospital saying he tripped and fell badly and needed some time to recuperate. While I was worried about the a.s.shole, he dropped a bomb at me and broke our engagement. He said it would damage my reputation if we announce it at the start of school, so we'll wait for a month to break the news. That b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" she said in one breath.

I snickered. "And what do you think?"

Zoe face twisted like she ate something rotten.

"I think that a.s.shole just wanted to save his face. Announcing the broken engagement right after the people saw him and that s.l.u.t together all alone in the toilet? Who do you think he's kidding?!"

"Did you cry?" I teased.

Zoe wrinkled her nose. "I want to, but the tears practically won't shed no matter how hard I wanted them to fall. At first, I thought I was in love with him, so I became everything he wanted me to be. I even grew my hair long! Urk! Thinking about it, I was so stupid."

Zoe stuck her tongue out in disgust. "Now, I only feel regret that I wasted too much time on him."

She crossed her arms and sighed. "I'm curious as to why now though. Why would he break the engagement if he doesn't want to announce it yet?"

Instead of answering her, I brought out my phone. "Give me your email."

Zoe gave me a confused look, but she still typed her email on my phone. She then checked her mail when her phone vibrated.

She shot me a face full of surprise and amazement. Her grin was so wide it would probably rip her lips apart.

"Do whatever you want with it," I said, uninterested.

Her lips tug in a wicked smile.

"Ooohh~ Sweet revenge!"
