Rebirth vs. Rebirth: Tragedy to Triumph

Chapter 225 The Neon Bar Confrontation

Violeta was the only exception over the years, and she might be the only way in.

“If you want to convince Jasper to come, you might have to invite Violeta. If she goes, there’s a good chance all four of them will come,” Casey suggested. Lucy pressed her lips together.

She didn’t like Violeta.

Maybe it was because Violeta’s mentor, Grace, was a rival to her own teacher.

Or maybe it was because Violeta had managed to do what no other woman could: forcefully join the group of four guys and become the exception.

Ultimately, it might just be that Lucy was jealous of Violeta.

This jealousy prevented them from becoming friends, making them enemies instead.

But Lucy would never admit to being jealous of Violeta.

The idea of inviting Violeta to her birthday party was something Lucy just couldn’t bring herself to do.

She thought about it some more…

“Is there no other way?” Lucy asked.

“If you want Jasper to come, besides asking Violeta, the only other option would be Hayden,” Casey replied. Lucy fell silent.

That was out of the question.

Hayden was so aloof that she couldn’t bring herself to approach him.

If she upset Hayden, it would be a big problem, and even her grandfather would have questions for her.

“Let me think about it some more,” Lucy said.

“Alright,” Casey agreed.
