Chapter 668 You Are My Lucky Star

Class Seven had always struggled with literature, but when they were suddenly proclaimed the best class in the grade, they became a popular topic of conversation during recess.

Naturally, not all of them were studious types.

Most were discussing when the girl beside Rowen will be gone.

Celine was thrilled to have ranked first in the literature exam. As her best friend, Harper shared in her glory.

While they were having their meal, Harper was repeatedly lavishing exaggerated praise on Celine.

Already shy by default, Celine turned bright red upon hearing praise like that.

Suddenly, somebody sat down next to them. Turning around, Harper saw Leah, and her expression immediately soured. “Who said you could sit with us, Leah?”

Though Harper no longer had feelings for Rowen, she had other reasons to detest Leah.

Leah is a phony girl. I've suffered too much at her hands.

Alarm bells started ringing in Harper's head at Leah's sudden appearance.

Leah glanced at Harper. “I have something to discuss with Celine.”

Harper became even more displeased at those words. “What could you possibly have to say to her?”

Leah gave a light laugh before turning to Celine. “We've read your essay, Celine, and it's very well written. I'm the vice president of the Novel Club, and I'd like to invite you to join us.”

Celine did not know Leah well, but she knew Harper. The incident that day remained clear in her memory.

“Thank you, but I have no intention of joining a club.”

Leah was taken aback. “Won't you at least consider? Every year, our club selects representatives to participate in the city's competition. There's a substantial cash prize if you win. Additionally, our school's Novel Club collaborates with the Writers Association of Jadeborough. Each year, we'll select ten outstanding stories to be published in a joint anthology with the authors from the association.”
