At that moment, a long, bony hand reached out from the darkness.


    The man’s hand was light and steady, holding ra’s arm, and with a slight force, the body was steadily fixed.


    The man’s hand touched ra’s cold arm, and his eyes were tossed with a fierce wind and rain.


    “How long has she been sleeping here?”Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Stanley was visibly more upset, and even his tone was much more aggravated, his eyes sweeping over Milo, who couldn’t help but get a chill down his spine.


    “It’s been… more than five hours…”


    Milo lowered his voice and said.


    More than five hours…


    Stanley looked at ra’s quiet sleeping face, but his expression was even more gloomy.


    “Then why didn’t you tell me earlier?”


    Milo couldn’t help but scream when he heard the reproachful words that were clearly implied.


    Ever since ra was framed and fell into the Tiger Garden, Stanley had already had someone protecting ra in secret.


    So just after ra was put into the auditorium, Milo had actually received the news.


    But after all, the situation at the old house can not be distracted, and how can you bother Stanley with such trivial matters, so he took it upon himself not to say anything.


    Until Stanley finished dealing with all the things, he then reported the truth.


    I didn’t expect Stanley to drop everything and rush over without hesitation.


    “You were dealing with the old house at that time, so I…”


    “From now on, you have to tell me the first thing about ra.”


    Milo was hanging his head down, but at this time, he suddenly raised his head.


    The first time? It means that no matter what happens in the future, ra’s affairs are in the first ce?


    He had trouble understanding what that meant, but Stanley had already gently picked ra up across the room.


    The duo walked out of the auditorium without seeing Carson’s clenched fists and indignant eyes behind them.


    ra woke up the next day and found herself sleeping in the school infirmary instead of the cold, dark school auditorium.


    The teacher who came in to check on her saw her and asked kindly.


    “You’re awake? Let me know if you feel unwell.”


    ra looked at the school medical teacher in a daze.


    “Why am I here teacher?”


    “Don’t you know this yourself? You were already in bed when I came in the morning.”


    ra froze and then asked.


    “What about the boy who was with me?”


    This time it was the teacher’s turn to freeze.


    “You were the only one in the infirmary today, there weren’t any boys with you.”


    ra wondered, if it wasn’t Carson, then who could have sent her to the infirmary?


    Instead, her mind suddenly went to Stanley’s angr face.


    She thenughed at herself for the absurdity of the thought.


    Stanley couldn’t have known she was trapped.


    ra’s mind raced and she made up a lie to get past the teacher.


    But the teacher was still not sure about her health, so she took ra’s temperature before letting her go.


    When she left the infirmary and was about to arrive at the ssroom, it was already time for morning study, so ra couldn’t help but speed up her steps and walk towards the ssroom.


    But just as she reached the door of the ssroom, she bumped into Gabri, who had juste to school without any dy.


    Gabri looked at ra’s wrinkled clothes and slightly oily face, and realized that she had really been locked up all night.


    Heartily pleased, Gabri scoffed and spoke up.


    “How about ra, did you sleep in the auditoriumst night and are you stillfortable?”


    ra couldn’t help but frown and asked in a cold tone.


    “You were the one who deliberately locked both doors of the auditorium yesterday?”


    “I was the one who locked the doors, what can you do to me?”


    Gabri was so arrogant that she was about to nose-dived, then coldly snorted and continued.


    “Since you want to hook Carson, you should understand the consequences of doing so! If you know you’re afraid, stay away from him, or next time… it won’t be as simple as locking the doors of the auditorium!”


    ra was speechless, and she suddenly realized something very interesting.


    Did this Gabri not know thatst night she had locked up her man-god all night too?


    She couldn’t help but feel some sympathy for Gabri, so she weighed her words and spoke.


    “Do you really know what you did yesterday?”


    Gabri sneered as she clutched her chest and continued to taunt.


    “Of course I know, that’s why I said it all, it’s a lesson for you! Just stay away from Carson from now on!”


    Gabri was in the middle of her speech, spitting and frothing, when to her surprise there was a sudden murmur from behind her.


    It was a couple of girls who had gone to school together and were passing behind her.


    “Did you hear what happened yesterday? I think it was said that Carson was locked up in the auditorium all night, and the security guard only found it when he opened the door this morning!”


    “Really? This is not too much, the school grass are closed, there is no humanity also?”


    “Yes, the auditorium must be very cold at night, if Carson caught a cold how to do…”


    The girls’ments were unintentional, but they sounded harsh to Gabri’s ears.


    Her face turned pale as she realized what the problem was.


    Yesterday, Carson was there? Wouldn’t she have kept ra and Carson together for a whole night?


    Wasn’t that a disguised way to create a whole night alone for Carson and ra?


    ra watched Gabri’s face-turning show and actually gloated a bit.


    She then had to pretend to pat Gabri’s shoulder sympathetically.


    “It’ll all pass.”


    She walked lightly into the ssroom, leaving only an exasperated Gabri standing behind her screaming.


    “ra!”


    Unfazed, ra went straight back to her seat, and shortly after she sat down, Carson arrived.


    He looked the same as ra’s current state, so to speak.


    He saw ra and gritted his teeth in anger.


    “Where did you run off tost night by yourself?”


    ra got weak without a reason, because she really didn’t know how she left the auditorium.


    But it was indeed a little unrighteous to leave Carson alone in the auditorium by herself.


    “I really don’t know, well, it was just an ident around.”


    ra looked embarrassed and full of guilt.


    Carson’s face was a stinky one, and he was about to get angry when the ss teacher suddenly walked into the ssroom.


    Carson had to sit down first.


    “Today is the art festival.”


    Noel stood at the podium, still with a kind and amiable look.


    “So what, we’ll follow the tradition of previous years. Each ss is going to go up and perform.”


    “Then it’s the charity auction that all the parents have to attend together, andst year our ss was the second ss in terms of auction amount.”


    “This is actually a very difficult achievement, so I hope everyone will still participate enthusiastically this year, but the teachers hope that everyone is well-intentioned and not just doing it to climb thedder.”


    It’s kind of an Oakleaf College tradition to have an auction after the art festival.


    The reason the school holds this charity auction is mainly for the sake of the parents.
