Stanley then let go of Klara, his fingers lifted and gently wiped over the edge of Klara’s lips.
“The injury on your hand, go back to rubbing medicine.”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Milo stayed in the same place for a moment, also busy to follow.
Klara was left alone in the corridor, leaning tightly against the wall behind her, unable to come back to her senses for half a day.
This incident had struck her so hard that she, who had always been careful and agile, hadn’t even noticed.
In the shadow at the end of that corridor, there was a slender teenage figure hiding.
Carson is now in that shadow, his hand still tightly squeezing the phone.
On the screen was the message sent by Ana, who had run all the way here and was now breathing heavily.
He stood in the shadows staring at Stanley’s leaving figure and Klara, who was standing in the hallway, stunned.
His face was cold.
This night Klara basically did not sleep.
As soon as he closed his eyes, all that came to mind was Stanley’s eyes and his shadow or layer of voice saying over and over again in his ears.
“Klara, I like you.”
How does that make anyone sleep?
So the next day, Klara came to school with two big dark circles under her eyes.
Carson was shocked to see her haggard appearance.
“Did you go to the west mountain to dig coal, or to the east mountain to catch ghosts?”
Klara gave him a blank look, didn’t even care about him, sat down and tried to sleep.
Carson hastened to stop her.
“School is not in session today, so don’t sleep, we are going to the rehearsal of the art festival, our prop group is going to be there.”
Klara’s class is performing a song and dance drama, so it will need a lot of props.
But the actresses still cared about the image after all, and the clothes packed up with the high-definition brought by their own families, instead making the props do a somewhat awkward position.
So in the end they just watch the props during rehearsals and don’t lose them.
Klara’s face is not very good, but thinking where to sleep is sleeping, also followed Carson to the school auditorium.
The school auditorium had already been filled with students of all ages, preparing and rehearsing, but to my surprise, it still caused a commotion.
“It’s Carson! It’s really handsome in person, it’s too heartwarming, isn’t it?”
“How come that Klara is beside Carson?”
“The two of them applied for the prop team together, and they were originally at the same table, so of course they were together from everywhere, and you don’t even know that~”
“This woman is not too shameless, so want to pester Carson, even the festival with him to sign up together.”
“Alas, I thought Ana would be able to do it, and give us a chance to take it out. I didn’t think the Perry Family would do anything about it, but something happened again!”
“I thought the Perry Family was just about to turn around, what’s wrong again?”
“You don’t know anything, the Perry Family has really offended someone big!”
“No wonder I haven’t seen Ana in school today.”
“Isn’t this too much? What kind of people are offended to make such a big family disappear?”
Only Gabriela clenched her fists amidst the chatter.
She stood in her class’s area and just watched Klara and her man Carson walk side by side.
She was the lead actress in the class cabaret this time, and for this role she had her costume custom made by her family.
The reason for this is to let Carson see the beautiful side of her.
But now all his eyes are on Klara’s body.
She was furious, but there was nothing she could do, when a girl from the props team came running around.
“Gabriela, this is the necklace you asked me to take! It shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
Gabriela turned her head and saw the dazzling diamond necklace in the girl’s hand.
The people around her couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.
“This diamond is too beautiful! Isn’t this Tiffany’s new model this year, you actually bought it?”
“My uncle went abroad to grab it for me, but he didn’t get it, Gabriela was actually bought by you!”
“This necklace is really beautiful, if you can bring this on stage, you will definitely be the most eye-catching!”
The people around Gabriela were all around to flatter her, which made her feel better, and then she smiled and humbled herself.
“It’s nothing, I said I didn’t need it, but as soon as my mother heard I was going to perform on stage, she paid a high price for it.”
“Your mother is too kind to you, isn’t she?”
“And this necklace looks great on you, you’ll look great in it!”
Gabriela pushed down her joy, but she couldn’t help but look at Carson with the corners of her mouth, hoping he would see her glowing.
But Carson didn’t even look at her.
“Klara, you have nothing to lose by letting me measure you?”
Carson was all smiles, holding a soft ruler to Klara and gesturing around.
“I just want to know how big this black eye of yours really is.”
“Get away.”
Looking at Carson and Klara flirting like no one else, she was so angry that her face was crooked.
She was obviously the prettiest and the best one, so why could he never see it?
Her eyes were already a little red with anger, and when she looked down and saw her overpriced necklace, she felt that even the necklace was sarcastic to her.
So she tried to rip off the necklace, but a plan came to her when she touched the diamond.
Klara really felt so bored, why did such a simple thing take so long to toss around?
She had to crouch down and yawn, wanting to sleep so badly…
Then suddenly there was a commotion.
“Why is it suddenly gone, where did you just put it?”
“Don’t worry, someone will definitely see it, let’s go ask someone from another class!”
“This is a limited edition, what if something so valuable is lost?”
The crowd’s commotion also woke up Carson, who was napping on the sidelines.
Then he grabbed a girl who was in a panic with his sleepy eyes.
“What’s wrong?”
“I can’t find Gabriela’s necklace, it’s a new Tiffany’s, it’s very expensive.”
The girl suddenly spoke to Carson, a moment of surprise and joy.
Klara couldn’t help but frown, there were people everywhere, how could such a big thing be lost.
She was feeling strange in her mind when she saw Gabriela striding over.
“Klara, Carson, have you seen my necklace on your side?”
The two men shook their heads in unison.
“No.”
Gabriela’s eyes reddened for a moment, and then she turned around in a ball of anxiety.
“How could this happen… this necklace is for the performance… what will I do if I lose it…”
She spun around anxiously and then accidentally kicked the girl’s school bag when she passed Klara.
