Juliette’s constant questions made Jamila mutter curses under her breath. How could Juliette be so oblivious to the subtle cues?

Didn’t she see that Jamila didn’t want to talk?

Could Juliette possibly admit openly that the real daughter of the Huerta family had returned?

Besides, what did the Huerta family’s matters have to do with Juliette’s family?

Jamila suppressed her anger and pretended to be tired, saying, “It’s just a relative visiting for a few days. You wouldn’t know, of course. In families like ours, we have standards for our guests. Only social elites are permitted. If just anyone showed up at the Huerta family’s banquet, it would be embarrassing for us.”

The implication was clear. “You upstarts have no place among us. You’re not in the same social class as us, and you’re not qualified to inquire about our private lives.”

Jamila was distinctly displeased. Juliette gave an awkward smile and said, “I see. You’re right. You have so much on your plate. I had intended to discuss the arts festival with you, but since you’re clearly exhausted, you should rest. I won’t disturb you further.”

Juliette waved her hand reluctantly and awkwardly said goodbye to Jamila.

Upon watching Juliette hurry away, Jamila’s bad mood improved a little.

She leaned her head on her hand and stared out the window, looking

serious.

Actually, Jamila had already planned for Fiorella’s transfer.

If her parents persisted in bringing Fiorella home, Jamila would counter with the argument that Fiorella might struggle to adapt to life here, suggesting a transfer to stop her from moving in.

Then, while Fiorella was struggling to keep up with the Experimental Class after the transfer, Jamila would seize the opportunity to move ahead and secure a spot in the top ten of the class.

She wanted to show her parents how outstanding their adopted daughter was.

In contrast, Fiorella, their biological daughter, would completely be overshadowed by her.

In terms of both knowledge and manners, Jamila was far superior. So, she should be the heiress of the Huerta family.

Not only could she humiliate Fiorella, but she could also make Fiorella realize the gap between them and leave voluntarily.

However, she didn’t expect that her father would suggest it first and even place Fiorella in a regular class different from hers, completely ruining her plans.

Jamila frowned deeply.

Not only had her plan failed, but the incident yesterday had also made her grandfather favor Fiorella.

Even though the school was her domain, she couldn’t act with

impunity.

Angering her grandfather would only cause trouble for herself.

With Fiorella in a regular class, she couldn’t easily make a move.

Jamila felt annoyed when she noticed the promotional poster on the wall.

In colorful letters, it announced, “Sports and Arts Festival.”

Jamila then remembered that the Sports and Arts Festival was approaching soon. Every year, the school organized this event to help students with sports and artistic talents find opportunities. Everyone valued this chance because if academic performance was poor, this seemed like the only alternative.

Those who excelled in sports could become athletes.

Those who could sing had the potential to become singers.

Those who could dance might become dancers.

At the very least, if they were good–looking, they could pursue acting.

Anyway, their families were wealthy, and someone would support

them.

Fiorella was exceptionally skilled in hockey, and it was possible she might catch the attention of the National Team.

However, even with just her hockey skills, she would attract a lot of attention. After all, hockey had become a popular sport in recent years. Having such a talent would surely please the principal.
