Chapter 455: Hers Tastes Better

A collective gasp ran through the crowd.

The VC paled, sweat springing to his forehead. He looked like he wanted the ground to open and swallow him whole.

But Arthur… Arthur was just getting started.

In that moment, that was when the VC finally realized something painfully obvious, Arthur was still standing.

He jolted, eyes darting around in search of any spare, movable seats. There were only five.

Two were near Jana, one for her and one she had reserved for her precious backpack like it was royalty.

The other three? Already claimed by Nnenna, her bag, and the a girl munching popcorn, Emily.

Jana followed his gaze and immediately assumed Arthur must be referring to the seats Nnenna and Emily had taken. Everyone else assumed the same.

The Vice Chancellor didn’t waste time. He began walking toward Nnenna and Emily, obviously planning to ask them to vacate their seats, for Arthur, himself, and Ava too.

But Arthur’s voice sliced through the moment, calm and sharp.

“Why are you going there?” he asked.

The VC froze.

Arthur casually raised a hand and pointed, right at Jana.
