Chapter 287 They Shift Their Frustration

Realizing the situation was getting out of hand, Leah quickly tugged on Veronica's arm and said. "Let it go Veronica."

Veronica's anger flared, her eyes blazing with frustration. "You expect me to just drop this?

"It's fine. We can ride with Daniel instead."

After a brief pause, Leah turned to the two girls with a regretful expression. "I was actually planning to give you both annual memberships to Bloomveil Spa as a gesture of goodwill. We didn't have to take the bas we just wanted to be part of the group. But if this is going to be uncomfortable for you, let's forget about it

The two girls hesitated, their faces shifting between embarrassment and regret as they watched Leah and the arrogant Veronica exit the bus.

"A membership at Bloomveil Spa costs at least 30,000.

"It's just an hour and a half ride. Sitting in the back with some exhaust fumes isn't the worst thing

Their expressions clearly showed their regret as they sneaked a glance at Celeste, almost blaming her for interfering and costing them the luxury.

Celeste felt speechless. She wasn't sure who annoyed her more-Veronica and Leah for being manipulative or the two girls for being so easily swayed.

Charmaine leaned in and whispered, "Let's just sit in the back."

They headed for the last row, which was completely unoccupied. Just then, Daniel's sleek Ferrari rolled up beside the bus. Leah and Veronica stepped in gracefully, flashing smug looks at those still inside.

Fuming, Celeste ripped open a bag of chips and crunched into them aggressively. "Ugh, I'm so mad!"

Charmaine, however, remained unbothered. "Getting angry just means you're playing into their hands.

Celeste turned to her, puzzled. "What do you mean?"

Charmaine explained calmly, "Leah knew she couldn't win against you, so she deliberately brought up the spa memberships to make those girls regret their choice and shift their frustration onto you. Do you truly think she was going to give away 60,000 just like that?"

Having known Leah for a while, Celeste understood her stingy nature. "Of course not!"

Now that she saw through the trick, her frustration eased.

Her eyes lit up as she turned to Charmaine and hugged her. "Charmaine, you're a lifesaver for my sanity!"

Charmaine was at a loss for words.

Meanwhile, the class monitor was checking attendance when Daniel, sitting in his car, spotted Cha the back of the bus. His expression shifted.

He turned off the engine, stepped out, and made his way toward the bus.

Leah stiffened. Her hands clenched into fists.

"It's Daniel!"

The students on the bus began whispering excitedly as Daniel approached. "Charmaine, I still have room in my car. Would you-*noveldrama

Before he could finish, Charmaine cut him off without hesitation. "Not interested."

The outright rejection, in front of everyone, made Daniel's expression freeze.

He had invited her, but she remained unfazed.

His gaze lingered on her, a mixture of emotions flickering in his eyes. Without another word, he turned

away.

His retreating figure carried a sense of anger.

Leah called softly, "Daniel ..."

Daniel replied flatly, "Let's go."

Only then did Leah exhale in relief, regaining her composure with a small smile. "Alright."

As their classmates murmured in admiration and envy, Daniel revved his Ferrari's engine and sped off, vanishing in seconds.

The bus rumbled to life, following behind at a steady pace.

A short distance from the campus gate, an old, second-hand Honda discreetly followed.

"Mr. Emyr, is that Rex from Ydris Group?"

Not far away, six black Mercedes-Benz G500s were stationed in secret.

From behind his sunglasses, Emyr observed the worn-out Honda bouncing along the road, his expression unreadable.

"Let's go."

Tad nodded. "Yes, sir."

Around an hour later, they crossed the city limits of Eragos and entered the neighboring region.

Keystone Peak, located on the border, had been turned into a camping retreat a few years ago. A dedicated road led up the mountain, winding through dense greenery.

The previous night's downpour had left the ground damp and slick beneath the morning sun. To ensure safety, the bus driver eased off the accelerator, navigating carefully up the road.
