CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE

Chris was totally fuming in anger when he got home, he was feeling really angry.

How dare Castillo? The whole issue was baffling him a lot.

Knowing that Ivy and Castillo has really been seeing each other for sometime now, gave him a lot of concern.

Castillo is not a kind of person to be with someone like that. He doesn't even wanna have alone time with his so called Cassie, not to talk of anyone.

The only thing he spends so much time with, is that silly headphone of his. He stays alone with that thing a lot.

But the fact that he spends time with Ivy is giving him concern, and it is not just a rumor. The whole thing was making him worry too much.

Castillo does not even want to deny the fact that Ivy has really been the one stopping him from attending classes and meetings. He doesn't even have an excuse as to why he chose Ivy to take his test for him.

He could have just asked Canice to do that, and Canice would have gladly done that. But no! Instead, he chose Ivy to do that.

And now, just in front of his class he made a very questioning scene with Ivy. A scene which he cannot even explain up until now.

For goodness sake! Why would he touch Ivy like that? And just the other day, his precious headphone which was touched by none, was released to Ivy. What the fuck is going on.

He even forgot to question Castillo about that. He could bet on his life that Castillo would never have had an explanation to that.

But why on earth did Castillo release such possession to her?

And now Ivy's telling him to go and ask Castillo about all this.

But as it is now, he doesn't even care anymore. He would have to force the truth out of Ivy's mouth, since Castillo has nothing reasonable to say.

Chris would never wanna admit now that he loves Ivy, but he was pretty interested in her, and would really wanna get to know her more. As she was the one that captured him at first sight.

That body, eyes, and ears of hers was just so captivating. And she's small, just the way he likes them. Ivy's nothing but a witch, she's locked him up just like that.

And now before he would even get to do anything, Castillo wants to come and take her away. Just like that.

It can never happen! Not on his watch.

Although Castillo is claiming to be ignorant now, he would still have to act fast. He don't even want people to start matchmaking them, just like how they were doing to himself and Cassie. He don't wanted Ivy to be in anyway linked with Castillo, for he is suspecting that Castillo has eye for her.

Leo on the other hand was so angry, ever since he saw that news, he has not been himself. He searched for Ivy all around the school, but could not find her. And then she has refused picking his calls, or replying to any of his text messages.

Something tells him that she was knowingly dodging from him at school today, coz heaven knows she's gonna get an earful from him.

But ignoring his calls and text messages now, he could now tell where all this was coming from. He suddenly began to worry if she was okay.

But what on earth does Castillo want from Ivy? Or what is is that they have? Coz even Ivy herself seems to be hiding something about Castillo.

The credit card he saw in her bag long ago was a first, and then the headphone, which was to his greatest surprise. This test, and closeness these days, was just like a confirmation.

But shit! Confirmation to what? Castillo would never ask her out, the Castillo he knows and hears of would never ask Ivy out.

He has not even asked Cassie out, talk much more of Ivy. Like what's the connection there?

Anyway, he's gonna hear from Ivy tomorrow, there's no hiding place for her.

Madison felt her soul slowly leaving her body, she felt her sanity slowly going away from her when she saw the trending news online.

She had to rub her hands against her eyes severally, to make sure she was not dreaming.

Castillo's hand was really on Ivy's head, and he was looking down at her. Like all his attention were on Ivy.

This means Castillo does know that Ivy exists.

Ivy Crownway her friend, took a test for Castillo, her crush.

Someone she's not even seen in close range before, Ivy's busy going all close to him, in the name of test.

But how come? How did Ivy write a test for him, where did he even see her? Did he ask her to do it? Did he pay her? Like what the hell...how did he even come up with Ivy, and she didn't even know about it all this while.

Ivy did not even mention anything about it to her, just because of that little quarrel they had.

So Ivy has been talking, seeing, and moving with Castillo all this while. Yet she did not even bother to inform her, or even link her up. She just kept her in the dark.

And later on she'll claim innocence, and behave as if she hates the guy. When it's the other way round, she has always loved him.

Madison has always read in between the lines, but she didn't see this coming at all. Like how did Castillo even manage to talk to her? Of all the girls, Ivy?

What Madison could not understand is why Ivy have to be so lucky always, why does she have to be this lucky?

That very thing Madi aims as a goal, and is gonna take maybe a thousand years to fulfill. But in a blink of an eye, Ivy would get there, without stress, and keep pretending like she doesn't care or know.

This was the main reason Madison hated her, for being so lucky and outstanding. Madi hated her even much now, she was feeling so jealous, so jealous.

Like how long has Ivy been in the school before she came? But she's already so popular, and she does things that gave Madison the greatest heart ache. Like talking to Castillo.

Ever since Madison got into this school, Castillo has never even looked at her for two seconds, he is not even aware of her existence. But Ivy; the whole school is already matchmaking them.

Even if it's just a minute glance from Castillo, she would feel so appreciative and fulfilled. But no, she can never get that.

But Ivy's gotten way more than that from Castillo. And to think this girl is her friend, and she's well aware of the feelings she has for Castillo.

Recently, she has been letting go of so many things, but not anymore! She's not gonna let go of this, even if it means for someone to die.

Ivy has to be taught a lesson, her overshadowing character has become too much. And now, she'll happily put Ivy in her place.

She opened her bag pack and brought out the card Cassie had given her days ago. This would be the key to Ivy's downfall, Cassie and her friends would be of great help in taking Ivy down.

And she, she's gonna do anything, even if it means pushing her into the pool again. And she's gonna make sure she dies this time. She's that ready for anything.

She brought out her phone and started copying the number on the card.
