"Why wouldn't I be?" Faye demanded loudly, looking at Rhiannon. "Right, Rhiannon?"
Rhiannon felt incredibly confident, trusting that Uncle Gordon wouldn't lie to her. "Exactly. I was the one who called her here."
Faye looked down her nose at them. "Did you hear that? If you're still in denial, we can just ask Ashmere ourselves on the night of the festival."
Claire had never seen anyone so shamelessly thick-skinned in her life.
Juno gently held her back, her eyes curving into a slight smile. "Perfect."
Seeing that expression sent a chill down Faye's spine. She muttered under her breath and walked away. "I don't know why you're being so stubborn."
Claire was still fuming. "Are we really just letting this go?"
"Of course not. The bigger the spectacle, the better."
Thanks to Faye's loud mouth, nearly everyone following the campus forums knew about the drama.
The festival kicked off at 7:00 PM. The lights were dazzling, the venue was massive, and the stadium was packed shoulder-to-shoulder.
Thanks to the massive investment from Celadon Holdings, this year's event was grander than ever before.
Rhoda showed up too, keeping a low profile in sunglasses, taking the seat right next to Juno.
"Can you even see anything with those on in the dark?"
Rhoda looked around suspiciously. "You don't get it. I can't let people recognize me. Do you have any idea how much chaos that would cause?"
Juno's mouth twitched. "Relax. No one knows who you are."
Rhoda pulled down her sunglasses, exposing half her face. Realizing that absolutely no one around her was screaming, she shrugged. "Fair enough."
"By the way, some guy from Gordon Corrington's camp called me last night, offering a high price for Ashmere to perform here. I told him she was already booked for it."
She paused, thinking it over. "I've been reading your school forums. That Faye girl keeps insisting they were the ones who invited her. Why haven't you cleared it up?"
Only Juno had the patience to endure something like that.
Juno's voice was steady. "Why explain? Isn't it more fun to smile and watch them dig their own graves?"
The moment Ashmere stepped on stage, the crowd went wild.
Her first song completely set the stadium on fire.
