Chapter 429
The next morning, Kingsley received a message from ine around 9.00AM. ''Why haven''t youe
to school, Kingsley? My dad is already in the office." Staring at the message, Kingsley found himself in
a dilemma with no idea how to reply to the innocent girl, for he couldn''t forgive her father for having
gotten his parents killed. After all, not only was ine Courtney''s best friend, but she had also stood up
for Kingsley once in the past.
Hesitant and confused, Kingsley struggled to figure out how he should respond to ine. He then
rubbed his temples, wishing ine was his enemy—just like how Caleb, Nichs, and William were.
That way, he wouldn''t have much to worry about when dealing with Vincent. Upon knitting his eyebrows
for a while, Kingsley replied to ine, ''I was nning to meet Professor Albright tomorrow during his
new bookunch."
''Yeah, that seems like a better idea. For a second, I was worried that you''d show up at my dad''s office
all of a sudden and end up getting chased out of there.'' ine responded not long after that, whereas
Kingsley put his phone down and started nning for his retaliation the next day.
Meanwhile, Courtney was sitting in her bedroom at Block Jasmine, wearing a pair of ck-rimmed
sses while rapidly typing on her keyboard. Soon, Queenie opened the bedroom door and walked in
with a smile. "Have you heard about the dancepetition that the dance club is holding at the
stadium, Court? Do you want to go there and watch it with me?"
"Nah, I''ll pass." Courtney didn''t even bother to turn around. "I''m not interested."
Queenie leaned in closer, trying to change Courtney''s mind by tempting her. "Court, are you sure you
don''t want toe along? There are plenty of hot guys in the dance club. Are you sure you don''t want
to see them for yourself?"

"Hot guys?" Courtney was stunned for a while just as Kingsley''s silhouette shed across her mind.
"Haha! Kingsley is the most handsome man there is in the world. I won''ty my eyes on anyone else
besides him."
"Come on, Court. Come with me, won''t you?" Queenie seized Courtney''s arm and shook it, begging
thetter. "Where is the fun in sitting in front of yourputer all day? Come with me to the dance
competition. We''re just going to take a glimpse of it! We have ss at 1.00PM anyway, so we could
swing by the stadium and take a peek at what''s going on before heading over to E.E. Block."
Tired of Queenie''s begging, Courtney sighed and gave in. "Fine. Should we wait for ine toe
back before going?"
"She has her ss in the morning, so we should go first." Queenie was excited after hearing
Courtney''s agreement. "That''s not a bad idea, though. I suppose she could get us something to eat
after her ss when she meets us at the stadium."
"You have a point." Courtney nodded her head and turned off herptop, whereupon she left the
bedroom with Queenie.
When the twodies arrived at the stadium, they were greeted by the sight of hundreds of students who
were enjoying the thrilling dance performance on stage. While most of the audience were female
students, they were seen cheering for the guys they had crushes on while blushing heavily.
On the other hand, more than a dozen guys were wearing fashionable outfits on the stage. As they
stood with their teammates on opposite ends of the stage, it appeared that the two teams were ready to
compete with each other.
In the meantime, Courtney and Queenie quickly found a ce for themselves to sit as soon as they got
to the stadium. Then, Queenie pointed at a guy with long hair in excitement, her cheeks turning red.
"Look, Court. That guy is my crush! I hope he is going to be the champion!"
Courtney reluctantly nced at the guy Queenie was referring to and calmly said, "Nah, he needs to
man up a little more. After all, that''s what makes a man look charming." At the same time, she was
once again reminded of Kingsley''s handsome look and buff figure.
