Daniel narrowed his eyes slightly. “Celeste, you should watch your words. Don’t invite criticism for lacking virtue and tarnishing the school’s reputation.“.

Celeste’s face immediately soured, her tone turning sharp and sarcastic. “Daniel, I was sticking up for Leah. But the way you’re talking, someone might think you’re Charmaine’s boyfriend instead.”

Daniel’s hand tightened into a fist.

Leah was nearly fuming upon hearing that.

What is she babbling about?

She was still holding back her anger when three tall, handsome young men dressed smartly in white shirts and slacks entered through the classroom door. The logo on their name tags was strikingly recognizable.

The trio knocked politely. “Excuse me, did Ms. Nelson order cakes?”

Celeste’s attention was immediately drawn to them. “Wait, aren’t these the delivery guys from Swan Delights, the hottest bakery trending online right now?”

“Isn’t their cake fully booked at least half a month in advance? Plus, all their ingredients are flown in from overseas. Even their smallest desserts are ridiculously expensive!”

“It is Swan Delights! Wow, Daniel is so thoughtful!”

“This is what it means to be rich and extravagant!”

-Leah beamed and cradled her face in delight. “Daniel, you’re so nice to me.”

She practically fluttered like a butterfly as she rushed to the door to sign for the delivery.

Daniel frowned as an odd feeling crept into his mind.

He wondered if the snacks he’d arranged yesterday were from this bakery.
