Darcy paused silently, her lips still, as she carefully contemplated. Her gaze swept around the hall, observing everyone immersed in their phones."Why is everyone so engrossed in their screens?" She repeated her question, yet received no response, only lingering stares at the devices.A wave of disappointment washed over Darcy as she noticed even Hansel, absorbed in his phone."Hansel, what has captured your attention?" She attempted to soften her voice.Upon hearing her inquiry, Hansel lifted his head from his device, offering no verbal response, just a silent gaze.A bad feeling crept in Darcy's mind instantly. She couldn't help but feel that something wasn't right at all. But what could that be?She carefully inquired, while trying to maintain her sweet voice at the same time. “Hansel, why are you being silent? C'mon, talk to me.”She had always made sure to speak all sweetly to Hansel at all times, so acting all sweet wasn't abnormal.The person she wasn't expecting to speak to d

Despite their prolonged scrutiny, they remained unable to unravel Nolan's thoughts completely.Their efforts to comprehend proved futile, leaving them frustrated."Why can't I figure Nolan out?" Xena muttered irritably, delivering a light smack to his own head as he glared at Nolan."Let's just drop it," Chandler suggested, patting Xena's shoulder in resignation."Agreed," Chris murmured, redirecting his attention to the scene.Nolan chuckled at their perplexity, unsure of how to bridge the gap between their perceptions and his own detached mindset.He remained indifferent to the situation between Darcy and Hansel, but their lack of belief left him torn between amusement and despair."Hansel, there's no need for further discussion here. We can resolve everything privately," Darcy hurriedly whispered, her voice trembling.Observing Darcy's distress, the others shook their heads sympathetically.Hansel snorted derisively. "Resolve things privately? That's a joke. You've embarrassed me i

"No, please, no," Darcy cried out, her heart sinking as she watched Hansel depart.Her tear-streaked face soon contorted with panic as she grasped the gravity of the situation.The spectators, unsure whether to laugh or cry, were utterly captivated by the unfolding drama.Some among them might even attempt to mimic the reactions of those who witnessed the scene in the hall."The once admired couple has become nothing but a mockery now!"Internally, they would all be consumed by regret. "If only I had been present!" Those would undoubtedly be the sentiments echoing through their minds.Nolan and the others also left the hall. Meanwhile Darcy was still in her own trance world. Her inside mind was nothing more than panic and anxiousness.She couldn't even think straight when she finally stood up. Without looking at anyone, she sped away from the hall.The puzzle and curious students were all stunned by her action. They didn't want to be left out in the drama, so they also followed Darcy

None of them had expected such a change of situation. They were just having a conversation now, so why did Darcy faint?Vera quickly turned to the others, and inquired anxiously. “What are we going to do? Darcy had collapsed!” Pearl turned to the anxious Vera and rolled her eyes. “Why are you asking us? We're also like you, lost and confused!” She shouted, with a hint of frustration on her face.Vera pursed her lips, feeling wronged. “Why are you shouting at me? I only asked a question, not like I expected you to respond to me.” She retorted,Pearl snorted, before averting her eyes. She turned to face Anna. “Let's take her to the health care room.”Anna didn't think much, before nodding. She knew Darcy's condition wasn't something they could work on. ReedWith that conclusion, Anna and Pearl carried Darcy carefully out of the room, while Vera locked their room.As they sped out of their dorm to the health care room, some students saw them. When their eyes landed on Darcy who was i

Jasper paid no heed to the aggrieved expression on Hansel's face. He reclaimed his composure before speaking. "The news of Darcy's betrayal has spread far and wide. It won't be long before other schools catch wind of it. I suggest you take a step back and let things settle for a while."He offered the only advice he could muster, considering the gravity of the situation, especially for someone as prideful as Hansel.Hansel shook his head, dismissing Jasper's suggestion. "Why should I hide away? I refuse to step back. Darcy is the true culprit, and she must be the one to make amends for her actions!"His eyes were cold, lacking any warmth. How could he entertain Jasper's suggestion? That would only brand him as a coward.Jude sighed, not knowing how to take hold of this situation. “Hansel, calm your temper. Shouting and claiming that you won't mellow won't solve the situation one bit.”Jude had to speak slowly and solemnly just to have Hansel's attention. He didn't know how else to tag
