Chapter 865: Is It Him?

Aveline's frown deepened. "No," she replied firmly.

Dorian's hand froze mid-air, his expression turning awkward.

"Dorian, let me take it for you," a girl nearby offered quickly, easing the tension.

Just then, screams erupted from the high school girls' crowd. Aveline caught a familiar

name.

"Orion is the hottest!"

Orion? It couldn't be him, could it? Definitely not. He was supposed to graduate this year, and with such a prestigious private school, his parents would never allow him to transfer on a whim.

It must just be someone with the same name. Still, when Aveline thought of the rumors about a handsome, mixed-race student, her heart became restless.

All eyes turned in the direction of the commotion. Aveline's usually calm face began to betray her emotions.

The first thing that caught her attention was a pair of long, toned legs. The loose basketball uniform couldn't hide his model-like physique.

Then her gaze landed on his face, and she froze.

Orion! It was really him.

So, the mixed-race heartthrob that everyone had been talking about was him!

He'd transferred to her school's high school division. She recalled the disappointment in his eyes on the day she told him she was enrolling at Cherrywood.

She liked him, but it was the kind of affection one felt for an older brother, wasn't it? She was still so young. How could she possibly understand the complexities of romantic feelings? That was why she hadn't responded to his feelings.

His soft blonde hair swayed gently in the breeze. His handsome face and those amber- like eyes-features she had known since childhood-seemed to shine even brighter now. Seeing someone she'd grown up with make such a grand entrance caused her Heart heart tryuicRETT

In the past, if Orion spotted her, he'd run to her like an overgrown puppy wagging its tail. But today, he only glanced at her briefly before looking away.

Was he angry? Angry that she had transferred schools without telling him?
