It was a French kiss.


    My eyes widened and I shoved Crystal away from me.


    Although she stumbled from the impact, Crystal didn''t seem annoyed. Instead, she licked her lips, seemingly savoring the kiss just now. Her provocative action made me flush.


    She was too brave!


    "Crystal, you''re too..."


    Shameless.


    If our genders were swapped, I could''ve pped her for that kiss. Yet, she was a woman. I couldn''t make myselfy a hand on her, so I turned and left.


    After handling the scapegoated boy, I began fretting over Felicia yet again. How was she doing on the cruise? I tried to call her.


    No one picked up. Just then, I remembered the custom of getting phones taken away when boarding cruises. This was to prevent people from filming the filthy activities taking ce on the cruise. If it got out, their reputation would suffer.


    What should I do now?


    It was toote to head to Pock City now. The cruise would have left the dock by


    now.


    I sighed. It was Felicia''s first performance but I couldn''t be there for her, nor witness it firsthand. It left me in low spirits.


    Thankfully, the party would onlyst for a day and a night. It will be over tomorrow and I will see her then. This time around, we were going to go all the way no matter what happened.


    I couldn''t stand it anymore.


    Since I couldn''t support her at her performance, I would surprise her when she got back.


    My n for now was to take her to the Pgos Estate in my V8 Koenigsegg. We would spend a few days in our own little world.


    In order to ensure this n would be executed smoothly, I got people to clean the mansion up. Then, I bought some fresh flowers, before getting the florists to put up a massive flower arrangement in the mansion. They would roll out the red carpets and stuff delicacies in the refrigerator.


    Then, I went to the jewelry store and bought her a six million dor ne. Everything was in order. The pce awaited the arrival of its queen.


    Yet, while I prepared for our getaway excitedly, I had no idea about the horrible day Felicia had had.


    I only heard about it from Travis after the fact. ording to him, she had been viciously bullied on the cruise.


    Everything stemmed from the band that bullied her.


    Initially, the people who would make it into the band had been fixed. Although Hailey was dissatisfied with one of them, nothing could be done about it due to theck of a suitable recement.


    Coincidentally, Hailey ran into Felicia and brought her into thepany to rece


    her.


    Initially, the members got along swimmingly. After learning about this, they stewed in injustice for her. However, they couldn''t change anything. Instead, they could only watch as their best friend was kicked out of the band and eventually out of thepany entirely.


    In order to avenge her, they began bullying Felicia. It began with simple verbal insults. However, Felicia was a brave girl. Their mocking did nothing to her. She was set on practicing dancing every day.


    Thus, they levelled-up their bullying and did all sorts of things behind her back.
