Chapter 81Finally, the D-Day for Liam's final exams arrived and he was up as early as he could to make a final preparation and that was a final review of his notes. Done with it, he proceeded to gather the materials he would be needing for his exams and after one final check, he slipped into the bathroom to take his bath. Now in the bus station waiting for the bus, he was scrolling through his phone with his earpiece plugged in when Jake arrived, breathing heavily like he was being chased. “Why running? Is there a problem?” Liam asked, searching his face with a raised brow. “I overslept.” He gasped, trying to steady his heavy breathing while Liam stared at him with his hands wrapped on his chest. “I asked you to quit pulling an all-nighter. Even if you want to attempt it, it's best if you do that in school, there are bathrooms everywhere where you can clean up before the exams commence.” He chided, looking him over with his brow scrunched up in anger.Jake was an average student

Chapter 83For more than three minutes, the trio remained in the office waiting for the final verdict which was taking an eternity to be passed out. Deep down, Liam was muttering supplications to his maker. If he gets expelled from the school either discreetly or not, news was definitely going to go out and then his reputation would be spoiled. “Please do this for me. I will work on finding out if it really happened or not.” Turning towards Liam once more, he grabbed his shoulder more tightly, “But I bet this is all a conspiracy, right?”To this, Liam couldn't provide an answer, he was dazed as he stared into space with his hands resting on his thigh.“Fine, you asked for a second chance, I will give that to him but it shouldn't exceed a week.” Professor Davis finally said and Liam, who had his head bent to the ground all along, snapped it upwards..He didn't know how to react to the news and so he was wearing a blank expression. “Thank you, this is definitely going to be the last

Chapter 85During her therapy session, Rose couldn't help but think about her meeting with Naya earlier. She was glad that she wasn't like Lily who was self centered, rather, she genuinely cared. “At last, Liam found himself a supportive girlfriend.” She muttered, her lips parting into a bright smile. Smacking her lips she returned her attention to nurse Lila who was now scowling with her hands resting on her waist. “Are we going to spend the whole day here?” she asked, trying to act sternly only to burst into laughter the next minute because of the expression on Rose's face. After leaving the ward, Naya made her way towards the elevator with her phone against her ear. Just like she said the previous night, she was already working on how to give Lily her bitter pill to swallow. “Hey Dave, any update? Were you able to ascertain if she was the culprit or not?” “Lily Davidson, I guess.” The person on the other end snorted. “That wasn't the answer I expected though.” She rolled he

Chapter 87Returning his gaze to the examiners in front of the hall, Liam dug his hand into his hair and then began to tug on it. Blinking his eyes rapidly, he tried to concentrate on the paper in front of him as he gripped his pen tightly but everything in front of him was blur.“We are sorry to interrupt your exams, we got a report that the paper was leaked before the exams and so we have to come investigate.” The team leader said and then nodded. At once, his subordinates who had followed him filed into the hall and then began to search the students. They were so meticulous in their search, making sure to take note of every single thing so they wouldn't miss out. While all these were going on, Liam felt uncomfortable since he had forgotten to search himself properly before the exam. He had been doing this since Lily told him she was going to have a pound of her flesh. A few minutes into the search which only two students were involved in, someone walked into the hall and at on

Chapter 89In order to stop her from doing something stupid, Lily was detained in the school cell which was more like a classroom as investigations were carried out. Several times she had tried to scream out her lungs but even when she parted her lips to perform that action, only air would come out, leaving her frustrated. “This wasn't what I bargained for. I haven't failed before, why am I failing now?” She muttered, darting her eyes around as she tried to keep her heart steady. With beads of perspiration gathered on her forehead, she was breathing heavily as fear coursed through her veins. Rubbing her palms together, she tried to keep still but she just couldn't. The only remedy right now was to rewind everything that had happened but that was just a vivid imagination. With her head now buried in her palms, she muttered, “I should have just slipped the materials into his bag when I arrived earlier. Why did I decide to hold onto it until after the exam so I would raise an alarm.”
