Chapter 183
Agnes rushed forward to stop them, “What the hell are you guys up to?”
Cecile walked over and said, “We need to rehearse in the West Hall, so we gotta clear out all the unrelated stuff”
Agnes retorted. “I’ve got the permission slip for the use of West Hall. For the next half a month, it’s ours. Please leave”
Cecile arrogantly replied, “Don’t you know that the drama department gets priority to use the hall? What good does your permission slip do? The teacher helping us rehearse is our department head and the principal’s daughter. Do you really think you can argue with me over the usage of West Hall?”
Kerri chimed in, “Even if she’s the principal’s daughter, she should still play by the rules.”
Cecile scoffed. “Well, why don’t you go and tell the principal about the rules?”
After saying this, Cecile turned around and continued to direct, “Throw out all the remaining props and costumes.”
Agnes’s team wasn’t about to back down. A heated argument broke out and it almost came to blows.
Just then, Ryder showed up with his backpack.
Seeing Ryder, Cecile immediately put on a big smile and went over to him, “Ryder, why are you here so early? I thought you’d only have time to rehearse in the evening”
Ryder, expressionless, asked, “What’s going on?”
Cecile latched onto Ryder’s arm, “Just some people who don’t know how to behave causing a fuss.”
Kerr lashed out, “Cecile, what the hell are you talking about? Ryder, you came at the right time, you judge.”
Kerri explained in detail about Cecile’s attempt to take over West Hall, including how Agnes went to the school early in the morning to apply for the use of the hall and how they had worked hard to move the props.
Kerri said, “You guys are way over the line! West Hall is a public space of the school, there’s no such thing as special privileges!”
Everyone’s eyes were on Ryder, as if waiting for his judgement.
Ryder had great influence, and he was the only one who could control Cecile.
If he decided to back out, Cecile would have no choice but to comply
Agnes’s gaze also fell on Ryder’s face.
Even though Ryder and Cecile were on the same team, Agnes believed Ryder was fair–minded.
Agnes didn’t believe Ryder would agree with Cecile’s actions.
Ryder was silent for a moment, and finally looked at Agnes, coldly saying, “You might as well give up. You can’t possibly win the selection, why bother?”
Agnes didn’t expect Ryder to say this.
Others seemed surprised too.
Regardless, everyone knew that Agnes was Ryder’s aunt.
Even just for that relationship, Ryder should help her.
Cecile was also surprised. She hadn’t expected Ryder to openly support her. Smugly, she said, “Agnes, Prince is right. If you admit defeat now, we can forget about our bet. I you insist on going on, don’t blame me for not showing mercy.”
Agnes retorted, “I won’t give up, and I won’t admit defeat.”
With that, Agnes turned to the others. “Let’s move our things to East Hall.”
As she walked away, Cecile’s triumphant laughter followed her, “I’d love to see how long she can hold out!”
