Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 193

Cecile launched herself at Kerri out of nowhere.

Thud!

A dull sound echoed through the room.

Cecile's arm was seized by Agnes, who flipped her onto the ground with one swift move.

Everyone around was stunned speechless.

Agnes moved like lightning, in one fluid motion, leaving everyone awestruck.

Who could've seen this coming? Agnes, having such a badass move up her sleeve?

Cecile, winded from the throw, lay on the ground for a good while before growling, “Agnes, you…”

How dare Agnes make a fool of her in public!

Struggling to her feet, Cecile spat, “Agnes, do you think you've won? The selection isn't over yet, it's still anyone's game.”

With that, Cecile stormed out of the hall.

“What's she up to now?” Kerri rolled her eyes.

Later in the afternoon, the heads of both drama clubs were summoned to the administrative office by Andrea.

“Agnes, your play was fantastic. And who would've thought that Justin even showed up? It gave our school a huge publicity boost, we even made the headlines. The principal's thinking of rewarding you. So, I'm announcing that your drama club will be in our school culture festival. You've got half a month, so do your best to shine.” Andrea said.

Agnes replied, “We won't let you down.”

Just then, Cecile interjected, “Isn't it a bit early to make a decision? I don't think Agnes' team can pull off the performance!”

Vinson kept his head lowered, his eyes shut and his fingers tightly clenched. All he could muster was a soft, “I'm sorry.”

Cecile, on the other hand, burst into laughter, “Without Romeo, your team can't perform. We'll take your place. Agnes, it seems you've lost the bet after all. According to our agreement, you owe me three slaps. I told you, I won't show mercy.”

Cecile's arrogance was too much. She walked up to Agnes, and right in front of the principal Andrea, raised her hand to slap her.

But before her hand could land, it was stopped mid-air by a force.

“Enough!” Ryder's voice echoed across the room.

Everyone was taken aback.

All eyes were now on the cool-headed guy...

Ryder then coldly declared, "I'll take Vinson's place."
