Jane Sterling watched the man slowly walk up to her, feeling a bit dumbfounded.
'Is this guy here to cause trouble?'
'But that can't be it, right? We only met that one time at Wendell Park No. 18.'
'Besides, he's Jasper Thorne's friend. He wouldn't be so petty as to pick on a young girl like me, would he?'
Under the crushing weight of everyone's stares, Jane Sterling was already starting to break out in a cold sweat.
Her mind raced, coming up with ten thousand different reasons why this man had come to stand before her.
Gideon Kendall stood fixedly in front of her, leaned forward slightly, and spoke with the utmost respect.
"Senior Sterling, I didn't expect you to be here as well. Please forgive my lack of respect."
In an instant, the area fell silent. It was as if everyone had forgotten to breathe.
Jane Sterling was stunned. 'What did Gideon Kendall mean by that?'
'He called me Senior... what senior?'
Bianca's voice rang out in her mind.
