As Adelaide walked down the hallway, lost in thought, she suddenly heard the distant roar of a crowd. She stopped in her tracks, her curiosity piqued. What was going on?She followed the sound to the gym, where she pushed open the door and slipped inside. The noise was deafening, and Adelaide's eyes widened as she took in the scene before her.The entire university seemed to be packed into the gym, cheering and chanting for... someone. Adelaide's eyes scanned the court, and that's when she saw them. Lucas and Mino, standing face to face, their eyes locked in a fierce stare.Adelaide's jaw dropped as she realized what was happening. A basketball game? Between Lucas and Mino? How did she not know about this?She felt a pang of embarrassment and frustration. Why was she always the last to know? She was usually so connected, so in the loop. But this... this was a surprise.As she watched, Adelaide couldn't help but feel a little left out. Everyone else seemed to be having so much fun, che

As the final round of the game began, Mino's eyes scanned the crowd, searching for Adelaide's face. When he finally found her, he was taken aback by what he saw. She was staring intently at Lucas, her eyes fixed on him with an expression that Mino couldn't quite read.Mino's confusion turned to annoyance as he realized that Adelaide's attention was solely focused on Lucas. What was going on between them? Mino wondered. He felt a pang of jealousy, which he quickly suppressed. He couldn't let his feelings get the better of him, not when the game was on the line.Lucas, sensing Mino's gaze, turned and grinned at him. The smirk on his face only served to annoy Mino further. Lucas seemed to be enjoying the fact that Mino was getting worked up.But Lucas had no idea what he was up against. Mino was a competitive person, and he never lost a game that he was determined to win. Instead of letting his jealousy get the better of him, Mino used it to fuel his determination. He was going to win th

Chapter 23

As the sun began to set, Lucas and his team gathered in a quiet, dimly lit room, their faces illuminated only by the faint glow of their phones. The air was thick with tension, and the atmosphere was heavy with anticipation.Lucas leaned back in his chair, his eyes fixed intently on his teammates as they began to discuss their plan. His expression was neutral, but his eyes betrayed a hint of excitement, a spark of anticipation that he couldn't quite conceal."We need to teach Mino a lesson," one of his teammates said, his voice low and menacing. "He thinks he's so much better than us, with his fancy skills and his arrogant attitude. But we can take him down a peg."Lucas nodded, his eyes never leaving his teammate's face. "I'm listening," he said, his voice calm and even.The teammate leaned forward, a cruel glint in his eye. "We can start by sabotaging his next game," he suggested. "We can make sure he doesn't get the ball, or that he gets fouled out early. We can make him look like

The next day, Lucas was driving to university in his sleek sports car, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated after a good night's sleep. As he approached the campus, he spotted Adelaide walking towards the entrance, her long hair bouncing with each step.Lucas's eyes lit up with excitement as he pulled over to the side of the road, expertly maneuvering the sports car to block Adelaide's path. He grinned to himself, knowing that he had her right where he wanted her."Hey, Adelaide!" Lucas called out, his voice smooth and charming. "Want a ride to class? I'm heading in the same direction."Adelaide hesitated, her eyes narrowing slightly as she looked at Lucas's sports car. She seemed uncertain, and for a moment, Lucas thought she was going to refuse.But then, she shook her head and continued walking, her long strides eating up the distance. "No, thanks," she said over her shoulder, her voice firm but polite.Lucas's grin faltered for a moment, but he quickly recovered. He wasn't used to be

Chapter 25

As the days went by, Adelaide found herself growing increasingly annoyed with Lucas and Mino's constant presence in her life. She had tried to be friendly and polite, but it seemed like no matter what she did, they were always there, hovering around her like a pair of pesky shadows.She started to feel like she couldn't escape them, no matter how hard she tried. They would follow her to class, sit next to her in the cafeteria, and even show up at her favorite study spots.Adelaide tried to keep her distance, but it seemed like Lucas and Mino were determined to wear her down. They would constantly try to engage her in conversation, asking her questions and making jokes, but Adelaide just wasn't interested.She would nod politely and make brief responses, but she couldn't help feeling like she was being suffocated by their constant attention. She just wanted to be left alone, to be able to study and hang out with her friends without Lucas and Mino always being there.But no matter how h

Chapter 26

As the minutes ticked by, the chaos outside the room only grew. Lucas and Mino were frantically searching for Adelaide, but no matter where they looked, they couldn't seem to find her.Their friends and classmates were all joining in the search, asking each other if they had seen Adelaide. But no one had any idea where she was.Meanwhile, inside the room, Adelaide was trying to catch her breath and calm down. She was still leaning against the door, her ears ringing from the chaos outside.Just as she was starting to feel a bit more composed, she heard the door handle turn. Adelaide's heart skipped a beat as she wondered who it could be.The door creaked open, and a girl student walked in. She was a bit on the nerdy side, with thick glasses and a book clutched tightly in her hand.As she scanned the room, her eyes landed on Adelaide, who was still standing by the door. The girl's eyes widened in surprise, and for a moment, Adelaide thought she was going to scream or something.But inst

Chapter 27

As they caught their breath and composed themselves, Adelaide and Elma carefully emerged from under the table. They looked around the room, making sure that Mino was really gone."I think it's safe now," Adelaide whispered, her eyes scanning the room.Elma nodded, her face still flushed from their narrow escape. "Yeah, I think you're right."As they stood up and brushed themselves off, Adelaide couldn't help but giggle again. "That was so close!" she exclaimed.Elma grinned, her eyes sparkling with amusement. "I know, right? I thought for sure we were going to get caught."Adelaide shook her head, still chuckling. "I don't know how you stayed so calm," she said. "I was totally freaking out."Elma shrugged, her smile faltering for a moment. "I'm just used to being invisible, I guess," she said. "People often overlook me, so I'm used to flying under the radar."Adelaide's eyes widened in surprise. "Invisible?" she repeated. "You're not invisible, Elma. You're just... observant."Elma ra

Chapter 28

As Adelaide walked to the campus the next day, she noticed a crowd of students gathered near the entrance. Her curiosity piqued, she walked towards the crowd to see what was happening.As she pushed her way through the crowd, her eyes widened in shock at what she saw. Elma was standing at the center of the crowd, her uniform and face covered in flour and egg yolk. The once-pristine white shirt was now stained and discolored, and Elma's hair was matted with egg yolk.But what struck Adelaide the most was Elma's expression. She was silently crying, her eyes fixed on the ground as if she was too ashamed to look up. The crowd around her was laughing and jeering, taking pictures and videos with their phones.Adelaide's heart went out to Elma as she scanned the crowd, her eyes searching for the perpetrators. That's when she saw Lucas and Mino, standing at the edge of the crowd, their eyes fixed on Elma with a mixture of amusement and curiosity.Adelaide's anger flared up as she wondered if

Chapter 29

As the evening sun cast a warm glow over the city, Lucas and Mino walked into the VIP room of a luxurious restaurant, surrounded by their friends. The room was filled with the sound of laughter and clinking glasses, as the group of friends indulged in fine wine and gourmet cuisine.As they took their seats, Lucas's eyes scanned the room, his gaze lingering on the familiar faces of his friends. Mino, on the other hand, seemed more subdued, his eyes fixed on Lucas with a hint of annoyance."So, Lucas, I heard you're friends with Adelaide now," one of their friends said, a mischievous glint in his eye. "What's up with that?"Lucas shrugged, his expression neutral. "We're just friends," he said, his voice devoid of emotion.Mino snorted, his eyes flashing with disapproval. "You're friends with her?" he repeated, his voice laced with disdain. "Lucas, come on. She's friends with Elma, of all people. That's just... wrong."Lucas raised an eyebrow, his gaze meeting Mino's. "What's wrong with

Chapter 30

Mino's face turned beet red with anger, his eyes blazing with fury. He seemed to be seething with rage, his body tense and rigid. But he remained silent, his lips pressed together in a tight line. Lucas, on the other hand, seemed to be enjoying the situation. He leaned back in his chair, a mischievous glint in his eye. "I'm really worried about Adelaide, guys," Lucas said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "I mean, she's so innocent and naive. If she finds out that Elma's been playing her all along, she's going to be devastated." Mino's eyes flashed with anger, his face turning even redder. He seemed to be on the verge of exploding, but he still remained silent. Lucas continued to talk, his voice light and carefree. "I mean, can you imagine? Adelaide's been thinking that Elma's this poor, nerdy girl who's been bullied and ostracized. And all along, Elma's been manipulating her, playing on her sympathies. It's like a bad soap opera." The group laughed, but Mino's face remained ster
