Soon, a crowd of students gathered around.
“Someone’s fighting!”
Alina immediately felt a rush of fear. Fights at school could result if a formal reprimand, and the worst part was, she was the one getting hurt–and it really hurt, too.
Throughout the entire altercation, Alina had been pluned to the ground by Halsey. Although a few other girls were also attacking Halsey, it didn’t make any difference.
Halsey was relentless. All Alina felt was a searing pain all over her body.
Finally, she managed to shove Halsey off her. “Halsey, just you wait! I’m gonna get help and teach you a lesson!” With that, Alina grabbed her friends and fled.
Halsey, though she had also taken a few hits, was unfazed. Her clothes were torn, but she picked up her handbag from the floor and made her way to the changing room. She needed to change into something else; she couldn’t go out looking like this.
She wasn’t at all regretful about the fight with Alina. People who had nothing nice to say didn’t deserve her patience.
While Alina went off to gather reinforcements, Halsey waited.
She pulled off her top, hissing in pain as she winced. Her body was marked with many red scratches from the fight. She hadn’t felt them earlier, but now the pain was hitting her all at once.
Just then, her phone rang, its sweet ringtone cutting through the silence.
It was Wendy calling.
Halsey answered the phone, and Wendy’s clear voice immediately filled her ear. “Halsey, where are you? I heard you got into a fight!”
Wendy had been waiting in the dorm for Halsey, but a student had just run by, saying they saw Halsey in a fight.
Halsey held the phone to her ear. “I’m fine. I ran into Alina, and overheard her and the other girls talking badly about Dwight.”
“So, you fought them because of Dwight?” Wendy asked, surprised.
“Yeah, they were five or six against me, but I held my own–ouch.”
Halsey hadn’t even finished her sentence before she accidentally brushed one of her wounds, and tears welled up in her eyes from the pain.
“Where are you? I’ll come find you,” Wendy said, her concern clear.
Halsey gave her the location, and Wendy quickly hung up.
Wendy wasted no time heading to the changing room to find Halsey. It wasn’t long before she spotted a familiar figure–Dwight.
He was at the school today.
He was dressed all in black as usual, with a black shirt open to reveal a white undershirt beneath. His black pants and tall, lean frame made him stand out as he moved with confident strides. His short, neat hair and strong

Jawline gave him a sharp, bugged look, and his cold, distant mura made him seem untouchable.
The very qualities that made him so aloof only added to his allure, especially for wealthy, well–behaved girls at this school.
Wendy immediately stepped forward and called out to him “Dwight, please wait!”
Dwight paused and turned his head to look at Wendy, his expression neutral. “What is it?”
“Hi, I’m Halsey’s best friend. Do you remember Halsey?” Wendy sald.
Dwight didn’t answer the question. Instead, he timed to walk away.
Wendy blinked, not knowing how to handle his coldness, Sle quickly stepped in front of him, blocking his path.
“Halsey just got into a fight because a few girls were talking badly about you.
Dwight glanced at Wendy but said nothing. He started to walk again.
“I’moot trying to guilt–trip you, but she really appreciated what you did for her last time. I know your

to get involved with her, but the more you avoid her, the more she wants to see you. So… Could you please spare a few minutes to meet her?” Wendy continued.
