Chapter 840 The Encounter


    Deanna heard that the Harvey Group was about to hold a car designingpetition and it was held in


    Elkton University. She was intrigued to join but she stood by the entrance hesitantly.


    "What''s wrong?" Zorion asked. Zorion didn''t go to school for the past two days and stayed at home to


    apany Deanna because he was afraid that she would feel upset.


    However, ever since Deanna got a call from Paige, she wasn''t feeling emotional anymore and insisted


    on going to school.


    "Zorion." Deanna ran towards him with a smile when she saw him. She hugged his arm, like a child


    asking for attention.


    Zorion and Deanna were open to each other about everything. If there was one thing that Zorion


    couldn''t live without, it would be his sister, Deanna.


    "What are you so happy about?" Zorion asked as his eyebrows lifted.


    "Zorion, did you hear that the Harvey Group will be hosting a car designingpetition in Elkton


    University? You''re so good at car designing, so why don''t we sign up for thepetition?" Deanna had


    long ck hair, and she was wearing a white dress. She had big eyes, and she looked like a life-size


    doll. Zorion couldn''t say no to her.


    Zorion reached out to rub Deanna''s head gently. Her smooth ck hair moved under his touch.


    "If you want to join it, then I can help you sign up for it, but I''m not keen to join myself." Zorion had


    always disliked huge events, and therefore he rejected the idea.


    Deanna agreed. She didn''t want to force Zorion because he had always disliked meddling in anything


    rted to the Harvey Group. Zorion could do anything he wished. She got what she wanted, which was


    to join the car designingpetition.


    There were more than five hundred people who signed up for thepetition, but it was quickly filtered


    down to not more than seventy people. Although thepetition was open to everyone in school, they


    had to pass different stages. The first stage was a test of the participants'' knowledge of cars.


    Therefore, not many were left topete.


    After passing the first stage, Raeleigh went to ss. She and Scarlette both got pass the first stage


    sessfully.


    There was nothing wrong with that and they didn''t think it was a huge deal.


    After their afternoon sses and lunch, they went back to their dorm and worked on theirpetition


    design.


    They were the only ones in their dorm room and it was quiet. Raeleigh quickly finished her design, kept


    it, and started reading.


    Scarlette, who was sitting opposite her, looked up and said, "Howe you''re done so quickly?"


    "There are so many people in thepetition and I may not be able to make it to the finals. Therefore,


    I don''t n to waste too much time on it. I''ll just leave it at that." Raeleigh decided on the thought that

    there were too many people in thepetition, and she wouldn''t know if they had an unofficial winner


    beforehand.


    "You''re not even putting in any effort," Scarlette said as she cleared up her things.


    "Are you done with your design as well?" Raeleigh didn''t see Scarlette draw her design.


    "I don''t feel inspired right now. I''m going to y games for a some time. Who knows? Maybe I''lle


    up with an avant-garde car design," Scarlette said. The truth was she had no idea how to design cars.


    ...


    The two of them ditched their designs and started ying the game. Around ten o''clock at night, they


    managed to find a huge treasure chest. The two of them obtained it together without anyone else, so


    they earned a lot from it. Scarlette sold the treasure and split the money evenly.


    Raeleighy down in her bed shortly after.


    She chatted with Scarlette for a while and then fell asleep.


    The next morning, Raeleigh heard that Deanna and Quirina were also in thepetition.


    Many people have their bets on Deanna winning thepetition. On the other hand, nobody had


    hopes on Quirina because she hardly paid attention in ss.


    Raeleigh was walking within the universitypound when she was surrounded by a group of girls.


    "Raeleigh, we meet again," Quirina said as she had a few of her followers with her. Raeleigh and


    Scarlette were surrounded by them. Quirina had a hat on. It was obvious that she hadn''t fully healed


    from her injury the other day.


    Raeleigh wasn''t afraid when she saw Quirina and just said, "Whatever happened was never my


    intention. It wouldn''t have happened if you guys didn''t cross the line."


    "Such high and mighty words. Raeleigh, let me tell you this. Only one of us can remain in this school. If


    you want to live, then I think it''s best for you to remove yourself from Elkton University as soon as you


    can. You hurt me, and I''m never letting you off."


    Quirina spoke as she approached Raeleigh. She lifted her hand and pushed Raeleigh. Scarlette


    grabbed Quirina''s hand and pushed her back as she cried, "What are you trying to do?"


    "What am I doing? What do you think I''m doing? Can''t you see it for yourself?" Quirina sized Scarlette


    up with an evil gaze.


    Scarlette moved towards Quirina, but she was held back by Raeleigh. "Forget it. Don''t bother with


    them."


    "That''s right. You don''t have to bother with us. Are you going to seduce Mr. Harvey right now?" Quirina


    was getting meaner with her words. Soon, there was a crowd around them.


    "Everyone! Take a look at this shameless wh*re. She seduced Mr. Harvey and still dares to show up in


    school! Let''s teach her a lesson!" Quirina hated Raeleigh. She wasn''t going to admit defeat, and she


    wanted Raeleigh dead. Despite her mother, Meica''s reminder to reflect on her behavior and not act


    impulsively, Quirina was unable to hold back.


    Raeleigh looked at the people who had crowded around them. "It doesn''t matter what you will do, I''m


    not going to leave Elkton University. I''m studying here and so are you. I don''t have a reason to leave,


    and you don''t have a reason to chase me out."


    "Chase you out?" Quirinaughed. The few people behind herughed along too.


    Suddenly, Quirina stoppedughing and said, "That is exactly what I want to do. If you don''t leave this


    ce, then I''m going to make life hard for you here."


    Raeleigh didn''t want to say anything else, and she was about to pull Scarlette away. There was no


    point in continuing this conversation with them.


    "Stop right there! Can''t you hear me?!" Quirina yelled as she saw that Raeleigh was about to walk


    away. Quirina pulled Raeleigh and stopped her from leaving. Raeleigh turned around and tried to break


    herself free from Quirina. Just as Quirina was about to hit Raeleigh and Scarlette was about to take


    action, a voice could be heard from not far away. The owner of the voice sounded upset.


    "Stop everything." Everyone was stunned, and they followed Raeleigh''s gaze towards the perimeter of


    the crowd. It was the Atkinson siblings. Zorion was walking behind Deanna. Deanna hurried towards


    Raeleigh and pulled Quirina''s hand away from her.


    Then, Deanna used her body to shield Raeleigh.


    "What are you doing?" In Elkton University, everyone was afraid of Quirina but Deanna and Zorion


    were not. Deanna had heard all about Quirina in the past, about how Quirina bullied everyone in school


    and was also a bad student in ss.


    Before Deanna attended Elkton University, she had already heard about Quirina. Since she came here,


    she also heard a lot about Quirina bullying the other students. Paige had exined about Raeleigh''s


    matter with Deanna and Deanna thought it was lucky that she wasn''t in that situation that night.


    "Deanna Atkinson?" Quirina took a few steps back. Quirina knew who Deanna was and Deanna''s


    father was Rhys Atkinson. He was a well-known man in Capital City. Her father had told her before that


    Rhys was bing more influential in recent years. He also said that if it weren''t because of Quirina''s


    identity, he was hoping to arrange a marriage between her and the Atkinson family.


    Quirina recalled it and turned to look at Zorion.


    Zorion''s gaze was cold as he swept his gaze across the surrounding people. His neck was long, and


    he had a ssy appearance. Although he was only neen years old, one could tell from his gaze that


    he was much more intelligent and gracefulpared to his peers.


    He walked in front of Deanna.


    Once his cold gazended on her, he shed her an indulgent grin.


    It was full of love for his sister.
