Chapter 423

If Queenie dated him, she might be able to get her happy ending.

Even the most delicious food would turn bland and tasteless when one was at the receiving end of tragic news. Nevertheless, I forced myself to eat as much as possible as I knew a battle. of attrition awaited me. Without sufficient rest and stamina, I wouldn’t be able to last long. I’d be a burden.

That said, I had no idea what I was expected to and should do when I arrived at Lagado. I was going there without a plan.

After being pampered by my parents and Colin for more than 20 years, I had become sheltered and complacent. When things went awry, I did not know what to do except to cry.

Once I found Colin, I had to learn to become stronger and more independent.

The school sent three teachers and three students. The students were all from the student council in the undergrad and postgrad faculties. They were also popular figures on the campus. They were studious and diligent.

Notably, the tall and handsome Winston Moyer was there. He was the champion of the Varsity Bodybuilding Competition three years in a row. And he had once confessed to me on the

Confession Wall.

It wasn’t until Helen told me that he wrote to me on the Confession Wall that I learned that he had confessed to me. There were tons of confessions there every day, so I didn’t think much of it. I let other confessions slowly bury it.

Felix knew that he had confessed to me too. When he saw Winston there, his expression

darkened.

Winston, on the other hand, was easygoing and paid no mind to Felix’s animosity. He sat next to me, like it was something ordinary, and greeted me cheerfully.

I was in a bad mood, and I did not want to talk. I also wasn’t close to him, so I didn’t know how to reply. I just nodded politely.

The flight from Jinovy to Lagado would take four hours. I turned on airplane mode on my phone, wore an eye mask, and decided to get some sleep. I needed the energy for the war later.

It was summer, and the air conditioning was at full blast in this small, confined area. I was only wearing a short–sleeved top and a pair of ankle jeans. I felt sleepy, yet the cold was keeping me awake. I hugged my arms to make myself warm.

Right when I wondered in my half–asleep state if I should get up to retrieve the hoodie from my bag, I felt something warm with a light, citrusy scent on me.

It felt cozy, and I fell asleep just like that. I did not manage to see who put it on me.

I slept deeply and soundly. I was only awake when someone nudged on the shoulder.

“We’ll land in half an hour.”

I opened my eyes and stretched my body groggily. I still felt the warmth, so I looked around but was unable to locate the source of heat. The air conditioning continued to blast cold air at

  1. me.

Huh? Was I dreaming? No way. I smelled the citrusy scent.

I raised my arm and sniffed at it. There was no scent whatsoever. How weird.

If someone had put their hoodie on me, I owed them a thank you.

Well, it couldn’t be helped since I couldn’t replace the kind helper. I shrugged the whole thing off. Saving Colin was my priority, after all.

“What’s the matter?” Winston asked with a raised brow.

“Nothing.”

Winston turned around with a grin, The curves of his Cupid’s bow were mesmerizing.
