Chapter 421: Delusional

The lecture ended, and Carl walked away, but not before casting subtle glances in the direction of Nnenna.

It was almost as if his eyes silently told her to come find him later. Then he left swiftly, before anyone could clearly tell who had caught his attention.

Unfortunately for him, almost everyone else followed his gaze, and they all saw the same person: the girl sitting right in front of Nnenna.

The girl’s face flushed deeply, her cheeks and neck turning bright red. Prince Carl had just looked at her! What could it possibly mean?

Whispers and envious stares soon surrounded her. Many envied the girl’s apparent favor, while others began to realize the weight of what had just happened.

Here was a talented scholarship student stepping into the spotlight, clearly making waves among their ranks.

The girl caught the disdainful glance of a high ranking noble’s daughter nearby, who snorted in contempt, obviously looking down on her. But the girl did not mind and just snorted at the noble, if she truly had Prince Carl’s support, what was there to fear?

The noble girl was furious and stood up abruptly, confronting the girl in front of Nnenna.

“How dare you look down on me, Jana! Do you even know who my father is?” she demanded, her voice rising with arrogance.

But Jana, the scholarship student, was no longer the timid girl who used to cower under their stares. She stood her ground confidently.

“You nobles are always trying to bully those you think are weak,” she said coldly. “Well, guess what? I’m not weak anymore. And now that you have seen Prince Carl looking at me, you’re panicking.”
