Chapter 16 Chapter 16 22 : 0 86 155 vouchers All throughout class , Kayla felt an intense stare boring into her back . It was like a thorn lodged beneath her skin , impossible to ignore . She slowly turned her head , following the sensation . Her eyes locked with Marianna's , who was glaring at her with pure venom . At that moment , Kayla flashed a strange , chilling smile . It was the kind of smile that made the air around her feel ten degrees colder . Marianna froze , a shiver running down her spine before she quickly dropped her gaze and looked away . The second the bell rang , Marianna didn't waste a second . She rushed out and waited by the hallway exit , cornering Kayla just as she walked out of the restroom . This time , though , Marianna had learned her lesson . She wasn't stupid enough to drag Kayla into a quiet , empty space again . Kayla glanced at Marianna lazily , folding her arms across her chest . " Back at the restroom again ? What's up ? Didn't get your fill yesterday ? " Her voice was light , but the words were razor - sharp - cutting straight to the bone , dragging up Marianna's humiliation from the day before without mercy . Marianna's lips trembled with rage as she remembered how Kayla humiliated her yesterday . Her eyes flicked toward a figure lingering in the corner of the hallway . Then she quickly turned back , voice quivering with emotion as she blurted out , " What you did to me yesterday was already disgusting enough , but how could you do that to Dav ? " Kayla raised her brows and thought , ' Wow , they are already that close ? I once offered to call him " Dav " , but he wouldn't let me , especially in public . ' But Marianna's been here for a few weeks , and she's already tossing around nicknames like they've been together for years . I really was blind back then . ' She let out a soft chuckle and asked , " Dav ? And who might that be ? " Marianna was caught off guard . " Don't play dumb . You know who I mean . Davon from Class A. " " Ohhh , Davon Ortiz , huh ? " Kayla dragged out the name , her tone smooth but layered with something darker . " Didn't know you two were so tight already . " Before Marianna could respond , Kayla glanced back toward the figure in the corner and gave a mocking laugh . " But who cares ? Did I do anything evil that you had to ambush me over it ? Oh my , don't tell me ... he died , " Marianna's eyes went wide in shock . She pointed a shaky finger at Kayla and raised her voice . " How could you say something so awful ? Last night , because you wouldn't let Day ride in your car , he ..." 010 Tue Oct 14 & Chapter 16 。 She looked around and added . He had to walk home in that rom . He got caught in the rain , got sick , and now he's got a fever He couldn't even focus in class today " Day's one of the top students in the whole school . He's aiming for a top - 10 university You didn't just hurt him . It him the whole school's image , you know ? " Kayla let out a snort , thinking . Davon caught a cold ? Is he so weak ? What a pity no lightning struck him down . Guess roaches really are hard to kill . And now I'm responsible for the school's reputation roo ? Please She folded her arms and tilted her head slightly , looking past Marianna toward the shivering figure in the corner . Her smirk grew wider . With a step forward , Kayla closed the space between them . Her chest brushed against Marianna's outstretched hand as she leaned in , her eyes glittering with disdain . " Just a cold ? It's not like he got diagnosed with something terminal . " And if a little fever's enough to tank his college dreams , maybe he's not cut out for those schools anyway . It's not my problem , okay ?
