Watching xander a retreating back, Milena Elenched hei lists tightly, then slowly covered her face with has hande. Ska ?hmlibet camaron a stumbing, but she didn''t think she was so ugly that Xander would outright ignore her.
Milena had no idea how topletely rece Cameron in Xander''s heart, but no
matter wheat, she wouldn''t let pa of Zaniter as her bint hope.
Before afternoon sses, Elijah asked Cameron, "Did the driving test go smoothly?"
Cameron nodded. "Yeah, perfectly."
"Congrattions," Elijah said, and Cameron smiled at his congrattions.
Elijah asked again, "Where are you going after school?"
Cameron found it strange-she didn''t know why everyone cared so much about where she went after school.
It didn''t really matter where she spent the weekend, but since Pearl was at Silvermoss Castle, she had to go back there.
Cameron simply said, "I''m not going back to Noble Vista."
Elijah narrowed his eyes, then nodded, deciding he wouldn''t go back to Noble
Vista either-after all, without Cameron, it was colder and lonelier than his own icy home.
Cameron said, "Call me if you need anything."
Elijah replied, "Okay."
After school, Cameron went straight to the underground parking lot without returning to her dorm. Bradley was waiting for her there.
On the way, Cameron received a message from Austin. Austin: [Cameron, why haven''t youe back yet? Elijah''s already home. Where are you?]
Cameron: [I went home. Are you waiting for me?]
Austin: [Alright then.]
Cameron: [Is anything something wrong?]
Austin: [No.]
Cameron put down her phone.
Wearing his gold-rimmed sses and watching the road, Bradley asked casually, "Was that Elijah or Austin?"
Cameron said, "Austin."
Bradley said, "Ever since you joined Room 316, Austin''s ''illness'' seems
Cameron fell silent, unsure if Bradley wasplimenting her.
She knew all of Austin''s secrets and would never tell anyone.
Cameron just said, "Maybe it''s because the SAT ising, and he doesn''t want
to miss sses."

Bradley tapped the steering wheel with his fingers and didn''t respond further
When Austin left school, he saw a silver gray Bentley parked at the gate.
Vincent stood beside the car in a suit. Seeing Austin, he bowed respectfully. Mr. Austin Fraser"
Austin nodded slightly, tossed his backpack to Vincent, and got into the back seat.
Vincent got into the driver''s seat and handed Austin a ck, exquisitely wrapped gift box. "Happy birthday
Austin took the gift expressionlessly and said, "Thanks."
He opened the box to find a Patek Philippe men''s watch worth over a million US dors.
Austin nced coldly at the watch and threw it onto the back seat.
Vincent was probably the only person in the world who remembered today was his birthday. After today, Austin would be an adult.
As Vincent watched Austin through the rearview mirror, he asked worriedly, "You seem in a bad mood?"
Looking out the window, Austin smiled bitterly. "When have I ever been in a good mood?"
At this moment, Austin carried a hint of mncholy,pletely different from his docile demeanor in front of Cameron. This was his true self.
Vincent said, "The Fraser family has likely forgotten your birthday-they prepared nothing. If you don''t want to go back, we can skip it today."
