Chapter 179


    Agnes saw the final results and was pretty chuffed.


    Mr. K is really something else.


    Keeping a one-vote lead must be tough, and just this one vote might already have Cecile blowing a


    gasket.


    Even though victory is within arm’s reach, it always seems to be trailing by one vote.


    Cecile was obviously fuming. She knew this was Agnes hitting back.


    The next day, Cecile dragged Agnes to the Dean’s office. She used Agnes of rigging vote, therefore


    her first ce should be revoked.


    Dean was nning to confirm the cast and arrange rehearsals.


    She’d also heard about the “one vote difference” incident on the forum.


    Agnes said, “Yeah, I rigged the votes, but I reckon I’m not the only one doing it. Andrea, you should


    look into it. I suggest disqualifying all those involved in vote rigging”


    Cecile was gobsmacked.


    So that’s what Agnes was up to! She tantly rigged the votes to force the school to investigate and


    get her punished too.


    But how could Andrea not see through this?


    In a public vote, vote rigging is bound to happen.


    Especially with the two girls in front of her, one the mayor’s daughter and the other the most popr


    rising star.


    The school had already made up its mind. They saw Agnes’ poprity and thought she could benefit


    the school.


    But, dealing with Cecile isn’t a piece of cake either.


    Now, both of them rigged the votes and their poprity is sky-high.


    If they disqualified both, it’d be a massive loss for the school.


    Andrea thought for a moment and said, “Both of you are pretty popr. I’ll give you both the script, and


    you can form your teams and rehearse. In half a month, you’ll perform in front of the school. The more


    audience, the higher your poprity. Then, I’ll select the more popr team for thepetition. Is that


    fair?”


    Andrea thought, this way, everyone will rehearse, no time will be wasted, and they can promote within


    the school. Plus,petition between them would spur improvement. Both agreed.


    As they left the Dean’s office, Cecile said to Agnes, “Agnes, let’s make a bet, see who gets picked in


    the end, you or me.”


    Agnes said, “Alright, what’s the stake?”


    Cecile said, “If I win, you let me p you three times, how’s that?”


    Cecile seemed smug, as if she could already see herself pping Agnes.


    Agnes said, “Fine, but if I win, you have to announce to the whole school over the PA system that your


    previous posts were all lies, and you have to personally apologize to


    me!”

    Cecile agreed, “Deal.”


    Agnes headed home with the script.


    Now she agreed to this, she needed to start preparing.


    The reason she made a bet with Cecile was to leave herself no room for retreat.

    This was her only chance to prove her innocence, she couldn’t give it up easily.


    If she doesn’t take a firm stand this time, there will be more false usations in the future. Agnes was


    already fed up.


    Agnes approached Kerri Bradford to discuss strategies.


    Kerri said, “Finding actors won’t be hard. You’re the president of The Journalism Society, there are


    bound to be many willing participants. But I must remind you, Cecile is a performing arts student, a


    teacher’s pet. The performing arts department will definitely help her rehearse to grab this opportunity,


    that’s her big advantage. Plus, they have many popr, talented actors. If you want to beat Cecile, the


    only thing you can do now is to find a partner who is more popr than the performing arts students.”


    Agnes and Kerri thought of the same person and almost at the same time said, “Ryder Whitfield!
