Chapter 255 Different Sisters
Catherine lay lazily on the bed, staring straight at the white ceiling above. Her bright eyes were distinctly black and white. Looking closely, one would notice a trace of coldness mixed within the bright black pupils. It was chilling to the bone.
“If Korbin didn’t provoke me and let the matter pass, considering Grandpa and the blood relation between me and Korbin. I wouldn’t let him suffer and allow him to live with dignity. “But If he continues to cause trouble, don’t blame me for being merciless.
“Don’t mess with me!
“No matter who he is!
“Seriously, if they’re going to annoy me, even if he’s my father, I’ll show no mercy. “He had never taken care of me even for a day. Why should I care about family relationships?” thought Catherine.
Ronin hung up the phone quietly as he noticed the prolonged silence from Catherine’s end, wanting her to have a good rest. He had been following Catherine since he was a child and had grown up alongside Catherine.
It was Catherine who rescued him from the evil hell. Catherine was everything to him. He would make whoever dared to harm her pay a painful price, even if it would cost his life. The following day.
Catherine arrived at the classroom at the very last second. If it weren’t for Branden knocking on her door in the morning, she would’ve overslept.
“Looks like that candy Branden gave me has more than a glucose-boosting effect. “There must be other benefits, too. I’ll have to find time to get these candies tested!” thought Catherine.
The class was buzzing with non-stop discussion and chatter. As soon as Catherine sat down, Ronin approached her.
“Boss, wanna grab breakfast?”
It was the same sentence every day. Catherine felt that Ronin never tired of asking it, but she was tired of hearing it. Before Catherine could respond to Ronin, Bryan joined the conversation.
“Boss, the school announced something important today. The top three winners in the school’s celebration gala will get to represent our school in the national league. If we win the league, we’ll have priority for admission to top universities and get some awesome prizes. Nowadays, it’s not just about grades. They’re looking for all-around talents.”
Bryan heard this news from David in the morning and immediately reported it to Catherine. David was well-known for being a big gossip. There was not a single piece of news at school that he wasn’t aware of.
Since he dared to confirm this news, the news must be true. Hearing the new information relayed by Bryan, Catherine coldly rejected, ” I’m not interested!”
After speaking, she lazily slumped back onto the table and sprawled like a soft- bodied creature. All other body parts were in standby mode except for her brain working. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for many people.
“My boss is truly different from the average people.
“A great opportunity that ordinary people envy seems less important than the evening news and is easily dismissed by her,” thought Bryan.
However, Bryan could understand her. After all, Catherine had good grades.
“As long as the boss is willing, she can get into any university. “Why compete with other schools for this opportunity?” said Bryan inwardly. Except for them, every team that showed outstanding performance got bonuses after the last celebration gala.
Some groups had even been noticed by entertainment companies and signed contracts. As soon as this semester ended, they could go straight to art school and make their debut after training. Only Catherine’s group remained utterly silent after the celebration gala.
There were many speculations about them from the outside. Some people even mocked them for lacking business savvy and not knowing how to fight for success.
“These brainless fools. Ronin’s email is flooded with collaboration requests. How could nobody want us?
“It’s simply that we have no interest in it at all!” said Bryan inwardly. Catherine couldn’t care less about any college league. Her mind was filled with blueprints of chip architectures, with no attention to spare for such matters.
Therefore, despite the lively discussion between Bryan and David, Catherine remained expressionless and uninvolved throughout the process.
“Do not bother me with such trivial matters!” thought she. The classmates around noticed this and whispered to each other.
Classmate A said, “Catherine doesn’t even care about this stuff. I heard from David that there are plenty of people trying to get in touch with her since she got famous. I even heard Terry promise to write a recommendation letter for her to Ealsmen Conservatory!”
Student B replied, “Is it true? Ealsmen Conservatory! That’s like a music dreamland for so many people. Wasn’t Liana always aiming for that school? She didn’t even have a chance, and now Catherine has the opportunity? Aren’t the two sisters quite different?”
Classmate A added, “Who knows? But the two sisters are really different. I originally thought that Catherine wouldn’t know anything because she grew up in the countryside, but now it doesn’t seem to be the case!”
Classmate B answered, “Exactly!”
Even though the conversation between the two was not loud, Liana could hear it clearly as she had been paying attention to them.
The pencil that she had in her grasp was snapped in two by her during the conversation. The sharp pencil tip stabbed into her soft palm fiercely, but there was no sign of pain on her face. Her eyes were burning with intense fury as if she wanted to incinerate everything around her to ashes.
Her life had been smooth sailing, and she had never experienced such great humiliation. She was staring closely in the direction where Catherine was, her pitch-black eyes filled with endless hatred.
Everyone now knew that she was not as good as Catherine, and Catherine was way better than her. “Catherine must be feeling so smug right now.
“Why could she get Terry’s recommendation?
“I have been tirelessly striving to gain admission to Ealsmen Conservatory. Why did Catherine get the chance to attend it so easily?
“That jinx should stay in the countryside and struggle with poverty for the rest of her life.
“It is destined that she is ill-fated. She is doomed to be unlucky in her life.
“Why did Grandpa have to bring back this jinx?
“She destroyed everything! “Why did my parents not drown her in the toilet when she was born but instead abandoned her in the countryside?
“If it weren’t for the presence of Catherine, this unfortunate series of events would not have occurred. “Outside of school, I will still be Miss Liana Swann of the esteemed Swanns, commanding the admiration of others.
“At school, I will be the model student and the campus belle everyone loved.
“Because of Catherine’s appearance, everything went to shit.
“It’s all because of that jinx, Catherine!
“It can’t keep going like this. I have to kick Catherine out of Casier for good,” said Liana inwardly. Her mind was occupied by the conversation she had heard at the study room door that night.
She knew that her father was already wary of Catherine. As long as Catherine misbehaved, her father wouldn’t tolerate her.
All she had to do now was give it a bit of a push to get things going faster. She would never have a peaceful day if she couldn’t get rid of Catherine.
“Catherine Swann! She’s a total disaster and must disappear!” thought she.
