Leah bit her lip, a subtle sign of her frustration, and pulled at Celeste’s wrist once more. She spoke softly, just loud enough for their small circle to hear. “Celeste, don’t push it. Maybe Charmaine used her connections. Someone must have helped her get back in.”

Her unspoken words were clear: We can’t fight her. Not now.

Celeste’s temper flared at Leah’s suggestion. “That girl? You think she’s using favors to get in here? Not happening.”

Stepping forward, Celeste’s voice was strong and filled with irritation. “Miss, Charmaine hasn’t attended a single class since freshman year. Anyone who fails the finals has to repeat the year. Why is she even in our class?”

Veronica, eager to add her support, quickly agreed. “Exactly. She hasn’t been here for one class. How is she going to keep up with us? Isn’t she just going to bring down our class ranking?”

Eragos University had a unique system. Students earned credits not only for their personal performance but also contributed to the overall grade and class standings. The higher the ranking, the easier the workload, and the greater the chance for scholarships and outside opportunities.

Charmaine’s return was nothing short of a disruption. It would hurt both the grade and the class.

The voices of dissent spread quickly.

“We’ve been in the top three for two years straight. If someone like her joins, we’re definitely going to drop in rank.”

“Seriously, how did she even get in here? She was a disaster in high school! We’re doomed to have her in our grade.”

“Why even bother? Who cares if she’s some fashion genius if she knows nothing about the subject? Why is the school letting her back? How much are they paying her to stay?”

“I’ll double whatever she’s paying to get her out of here!”
