Chapter 6: They come to teach you!

The following morning, as Ella Lacey left the mysterious castle, she felt a deep sense of reluctance.

Even while sitting in the classroom, her mind was still filled with the vivid European style of the ancient castle; the gorgeous colours, the rich textures, which were much more beautiful and romantic than the castles of the Snow White she had imagined as a child.

How wonderful it would be if she could hold her own wedding in the ancient castle in the future.

If the groom is -

A certain person, she would wake up laughing from her dreams!

She covered her mouth, the more she thought about it, the more excited she became, with her little heart racing fast...

As a result, Ella spent the whole day in this beautiful expectation and fantasy.

Whatever the teacher was talking about in class, it just went in one ear and out the other, she had absolutely no idea.

On the contrary, since Ella came first in the previous test, the teachers had looked at her differently. They considered her distractedness throughout the day as a sign of deep thought, which they were very pleased with!

From time to time, they would praise her and ask the other students to learn from her.

After school, Ella stepped out of the school gate, looking left and right, trying to find Arthur Lindsey's luxurious car, but there was no trace of it.

But wasn't it agreed when he dropped her off at school this morning that he would pick her up on time after school?

She hated people who didn't keep their word!

Did he go on a date with his lover?

At this thought, Ella's good mood for the whole day plummeted instantly.

At the same time, she regretted not secretly asking the servants in the castle last night whether there have been other women in the castle.

As she drooped her head, intending to take out her phone to call Arthur Lindsey, a girl in ripped jeans suddenly stood in front of her with arrogant provocation in her eyes.

"Ginny Harl, what are you doing?" Ella sensed trouble from her.

But she normally had no interaction with Ginny, who was a school-wide celebrity, known for smoking, drinking, fighting, and womanizing, and she spent more days in motels each month than she had periods.

She was a total punk girl.

"What am I doing?" Ginny flicked the lit cigarette in her hand, sneered lightly, "I fucking hate the sight of you!"

She threw the half-burnt cigarette butt fiercely to the ground, and three lewd boys hiding in the corner came out, snickering and laughing.

Instinctively, Ella took two steps back, clutching her school bag tightly across her chest, calming herself, "Ginny, we're classmates. We don't interfere with each other. What did I do to offend you?"

"You did more than offend me, you offended our whole class! Especially those low-performing students! I'm going to teach you a lesson on their behalf. Don't think you're so great just because you came first! It's all copied!"

Ginny stood with her hands on her hips, looking very disdainful. With a wave of her hand, those tall and burly boys approached, getting closer and closer to Ella.

"If you have the skills, why don't you rank first?"

Ella tried to show courage, but her legs involuntarily backed away until she hit a wall with a "clang". Rubbing her head, she laughed awkwardly, "Want to come first? Study hard and aim high every day."

Ginny just snorted coldly through her nose, not even looking at Ella. The fists of those boys were clenched, their veins bulging, and in the next second, they would smash onto Ella's head.

"Stop!"

A very sharp voice rang out.

"It's the goddess Sally Jefferson!" Those boys saw the newcomer, and like infatuated fools, they froze on the spot.

Ella took off the school bag she had been holding over her head, jogged over to Sally, and laughed as if she had been saved, "Sally, you came just in time!"
