As Raven arrived at the base of the president's office building, she spotted Marisela approaching with a girl who had an air of cold indifference, Lilian

Hartman.

Lilian glanced at the new clothes Raven was wearing, which Ruth had picked out for her, and a look of clear disdain flickered across her face.

Marisela, however, didn't notice Lilian's expression. Instead, she smiled at Raven.

"There's a party tonight at Century Globe Hotel. A girl is hosting it, and she's planning to confess to Cassian in front of everyone. Come with us," Marisela

said as soon as she saw Raven.

Raven gave her a neutral look, her expression unreadable. "Cassian? A confession?"

Cassian was exactly the person Raven had been looking for.

'So that's why he's going to be at the party tonight? Someone's planning to confess to him,' she wondered.

Hearing the confusion in Raven's voice, Marisela nodded. "That's right. Aside from the Hottest Five, the most well-known guys in the college are Preston and Cassian. And tonight, Isla, one of the Hottest Five, is going to confess her feelings for him."

After

that, Marisela suddenly seemed to remember something. She quickly glanced at Lilian beside her before turning back to Raven. "Oh, by the

Lilian shot Raven a glance, her expression neither warm nor cold.

"Let's go." Without waiting for Raven to respond, Lilian turned and walked straight toward the parking lot.

Marisela, feeling slightly awkward, turned to Raven and said, "Raven, that's just how Lilian is. Don't take it to heart. Let's go."

Raven nodded without saying much.

A free ride? Works for me,' she thought.

Thirty minutes later, the three of them stepped out of Lilian's luxury car and stood in front of the extravagant Century Globe Hotel.

It was still the afternoon, and with nearly two hours left before the party started, there weren't many people going in and out of the hotel.

But just as they were about to enter, a stylishly dressed girl with above-average looks, Clara Monroe, happened to walk past.

Lilian spotted Clara and immediately stepped forward with a smile. “Clara, hello."

Clara lifted her gaze, giving Lilian a brief, indifferent glance before giving a slight nod in acknowledgment.

She was about to head into the hotel when, suddenly, her eyes landed on Marisela.

"Wait a second. Aren't you that bitch who tried to seduce Preston?" Clara said. Maricela's expression darkened instantly.

But the memory of how she had offended Raver yesterday was still fresh in her mind. She didn't dare lose her temper outright, so instead, she looked over at Lilian.

Sensing Marisela's gaze, Lilian quickly stepped in. "Marisela, this is Clara Monroe, President Monroe's only granddaughter."

Marisela instinctively sucked in a sharp breath.

'Thank God I didn't act impulsively,' she breathed a sigh of relief and wondered.

Marisela knew full well that the president of Regalhold University held absolute

power over the students.

If she offended his granddaughter, not even Raven might be able to save her. 林家61%合

Seeing the color drain slightly from Marisela's face, Clara lifted her chin arrogantly

before issuing an order. "Once you're back at the college, stay away

from Preston.

"If I hear so much as a whisper about you trying to seduce him again, you can forget about staying at Regalhold University. Understood?"

Marisela nodded immediately. "Got it."

She had already decided to stay away from Preston, so agreeing to this condition wasn't difficult for her.

Satisfied with Marisela's submissive attitude, Clara gave a slight nod.

Clara tilted her head slightly and casually issued a warning to Raven and Lilian. "And you two, stay away from Preston as well."

Lilian immediately forced a smile. "Clara, how could I possibly dare to steal the guy you like?"

Clara gave a faint smile before turning her gaze to Raven.

When she saw Raven's calm and composed eyes, her brows slowly furrowed. "Did you not hear what I just said?" Clara asked.

Lilian quickly tensed and urged, "Answer her."

But Raven ignored Lilian completely. She simply looked at Clara and asked, "Is there a rule at the college that forbids students from approaching certain people?"

"You must be new here." Clara's lips curled slightly. "Listen to me. What I say is the rule."

Raven let out a soft chuckle. "Oh? And what if I choose not to follow this so-called rule of yours?"

Clara's expression instantly darkened. "Then all three of you can pack your bags and get out of the college."

Lilian's heart clenched on the spot.

Marisela had worked hard to get into Regalholdcity. She had no intention of getting expelled before the semester had even begun.

However, Raven completely ignored Lilian and Marisela's anxious expressions.

Instead, she looked at Clara with an indifferent gaze and said, "Expel me? I'm afraid you don't have the authority to do that."

Clara was stunned.

How long
