Chapter 221: You broke a Record.

She stood in front of the classrooms, staring as if she had walked into a place that did not belong to her. Was she dreaming? Nothing made sense and she had no idea how she even ended up here. Her eyes searched the faces around her, hoping to see someone she knew, and relief came when she noticed a few familiar ones.

The halls were alive with movement. Students walked past, some laughing, some deep in talk, others playing without care. The normalcy of it all only confused her more. Angela pushed herself forward and entered the classroom, praying her friends would give her answers. Maybe they could explain what was happening because she could not understand it herself.

It was break time, and Alex sat with Stales in quiet discussion. A smile touched her lips when she saw them, and without hesitation she squeezed into the little space between them. They shifted their seats, giving her room to settle, and she felt comfort simply being near them.

"We are not going to get mad at you no matter what you do," Stales said warmly, his smile soft as he looked at her. "Alex wants to apologise."

Angela blinked, her face full of confusion. "Apologise for what? I don’t remember him doing anything wrong to me." Her gaze moved from Stales to Alex, searching their eyes.

"For keeping something from you," Stales replied, nudging Alex to speak for himself.

Alex finally lifted his eyes, and she saw regret swimming in them. "I am sorry, Angela. I never meant to hide it from you," he said, his voice low and heavy with honesty. She could feel he truly meant every word, yet her heart tightened because she did not even know what he was sorry for.

"I accept your apology," she said carefully, her brows drawn together. "But what is it you are sorry about?"

"It is about Eliza," Alex murmured, his eyes falling to the floor as though he could not bear her stare. "We should have told you. Kaito already explained the story, so there is not much more for me to add. I promise I will not lie to you again."

Angela froze, the words striking her like a blow. "Did he tell me about it? I do not remember." Her hand went to her forehead, pressing lightly, but there was no fever. Her body felt normal, yet her mind seemed wrong. She looked up again and a sudden thought jolted her. "Xavier’s hair... it was auburn when I saw him near the pool earlier. Now it is white. When did that happen?"

"Two days ago," Alex answered, glancing at her with confusion. "Why do you ask? You were there with Taros when he dyed it. Why are you acting like you don’t know?"

Angela gave a small laugh, though it came out hollow, more like disbelief than amusement. This felt like some cruel joke. She had not spoken to Xavier since the race
