Chapter 760

    Taylor''s gaze towards Mirabe was noticeably more polite this time, offering her genuinepliments in a friendly tone.


    Meg watched, her fingers tightening involuntarily. Taylor hadn''t treated her like that just moments ago.


    Mirabe, oblivious to Meg''s reaction, checked her watch and politely said,


    "Thank you, but I really should be heading back to ss."


    After saying this, she nced at Matthew, nodded in acknowledgment, and made to leave.


    Just then, Mr. Hammond parted the curtains and stepped backstage. Seeing Mirabe about to leave, he called out to her, "Mirabe."


    Mirabe stopped in her tracks and turned around, a question in her eyes.


    Mr. Hammond smiled and said, "Don''t rush off after school. I''ve booked a table for us and a few of the seniors to have dinner together."


    "Oh, I can''t tonight," Mirabe replied with a shake of her head. "I have familymitments. Mr. Hammond, you guys go ahead without me."


    She couldn''t miss her brother Zach''s birthday dinner; he''d never let her hear the end of it for the rest of the year.


    Mr. Hammond felt a twinge of disappointment upon hearing this. He had hoped to foster more interaction between Mirabe and the top students from Prestige College, thinking it would benefit her future at the college. After all, having a solidwork can make all the difference.


    But seeing she had priormitments, he didn''t press the matter and waved her off, "Alright then, there will be other opportunities."


    "Sure."


    Soon after, Mirabe left.


    Once she was out of sight, Mr. Hammond turned back to Taylor, Meg, and the others with a chuckle, "Mirabe''s got a great personality. I hope you guys, as her seniors, can look out for her in the future."


    "Of course," Taylor responded readily.


    Matthew nodded in agreement, thinking Mirabe might soon be a junior member of their circle; it was only natural to want to take care of her.


    Meg, who had missed the final part of the speechpetition and was unaware of Mirabe''s status as a direct admit to Prestige College, felt puzzled by Mr. Hammond''sment. Still, she didn''t want to pry and simply nodded along, hiding her confusion.


    Noticing Anthony nearby, Mr. Hammond excused himself to the trio, "I''ve got some things to take care of. Why don''t you head to my office and wait? We''ll go for dinner a bitter."


    With that, he hurried off with Anthony.


    The trio then made their way to Mr. Hammond''s office.


    As they walked, Meg couldn''t help but wonder about the noticeable shift in Taylor''s attitude towards Mirabe upon her return.


    So, she turned to Matthew, "Matthew, was the speechpetition recorded?" Matthew nodded, "Yes, why do you ask?"


    Meg bit her lip, smiling lightly, "Taylor mentioned I missed Mirabe''s inspiring speech. I''d love to check it out."


    Understanding her curiosity, Matthew didn''t think much of it and suggested, "You might want to ask Mr. Hammond about it, but I think the recording will be posted on the Parkside High School forum. Just keep an eye out."


    "Alright," Meg responded.


    "It''s definitely worth watching. Even someone who''s not worried about finals like me felt inspired," Matthew admitted.


    Meg simply nced at Matthew, her expression unreadable. Then, with a sudden thought, she asked, "By the way, when Mr. Hammond mentioned looking out for Mirabe, what did he mean? I didn''t quite catch that."


    After struggling with my writingst night, I, I''m happy to announce it''s double vote month! If you''ve got votes to spare, consider supporting! Goodnight, see you tomorrow!
