"Alright, I'm done. Let's go." Queenie held Courtney's hand once again as soon as she sent out the message. "What's going on with you, Queenie?" Courtney curiously asked, wondering why Queenie was acting so mysteriously.

"Don't worry, Court. It's not like I'm going to set you up or something."

As the two ladies chatted with each other along the way, they passed by the table tennis training room, the badminton court, and the gymnasium. A few minutes later, they arrived at the area where all the club activities, including the Student Representative Council, were situated. "Um... Queenie, you do know that this office belongs to some other club, don't you?" Courtney whispered.

"Let's go inside the office." Queenie chuckled. "There it is! We're heading to the taekwondo club's office."

At the mention of the taekwondo club, Courtney was stunned for a second. Meanwhile, a few relevant names flashed across her mind. Taekwondo? The SRC? Calvin? Elaine? Kingsley? In less than two seconds, it immediately dawned on Courtney what was going on.

Soon, she began to recall the fact that the taekwondo club belonged to the Student Representative Council, knowing Calvin was the current and former president of both clubs. Apart from Calvin's persistent efforts to woo Elaine, Courtney soon thought of the fight that he had with Kingsley two days ago, stopping abruptly in her tracks.

"What's wrong, Court? Why are you not moving?" Queenie almost lost her footing when the sudden resistance caught her by surprise.

"No, we mustn't go there!" Courtney said, "This is a trap! Someone is trying to use me to get to Kingsley!"

Queenie asked in confusion, "What are you talking about, Court? Catherine..." She covered her mouth immediately, fearing she would ruin Queenie's surprise, but Courtney had already heard the girl's name. "Catherine?!" Courtney's face changed. "Turns out that Catherine has been working together with Calvin!" As soon as she turned around to leave, she found Catherine, Calvin, and Perry standing in their way. Impressed by Courtney's quick wit, Calvin clapped his hands. "I guess it's true that they call you a beauty with wits around the school, Miss Bullock. I must admit that you're smart for being able to figure everything out in just mere seconds. Unfortunately, it's still too late for you. You can't get away from us now!"

In the meantime, Catherine emerged from behind Calvin and expressed her grudge toward Courtney. "Courtney, you and that idiot, Kingsley, are to blame for causing my breakup with Zeke! My face is now swollen because of you both! For that, I'm going to make sure I get my revenge today. Besides, I want you to act as my dog from today onward!"

Upon hearing her friend's words, Queenie was shocked. "What are you talking about, Catherine? Don't you have a surprise for Court?" she asked in horror.

Nevertheless, Catherine only stuck out her palms with a cunning smile. "Isn't this obvious enough? This is the surprise! Aren't you surprised? Haha!"

"You!" Queenie finally understood everything despite her dim wits. She then pointed at Catherine with a pale look on her face. "You! You're a wicked woman without a heart!"

"Oh, you're about to see something worse!" Catherine shouted and charged at Courtney, grabbing the latter by her shirt. At the same time, Perry joined in the conflict and helped Catherine subdue Courtney and Queenie.

Despite Courtney's brilliance and shrewdness, she couldn't protect herself from the trouble due to her poor physical condition. Furthermore, she was just a defenseless student who was no match for Perry and Catherine. In just a blink of an eye, Courtney and Queenie's arms were locked by their enemies with no chance of escaping.

"Let go of me!" Queenie shouted while struggling to break free from their restraint. "This is a school! Aren't you afraid of getting caught?!"

"Haha..." Calvin laughed gleefully. "Everybody else is busy watching the dance competition downstairs, and I doubt your screams are louder than the music. For that, you can forget about shouting for help. No one will hear you!"

Upon hearing Calvin's words, Courtney and Queenie turned pale in their faces, reluctantly admitting that he had a point. After all, there was no one else nearby on the second floor since they were all watching the dance competition downstairs. Dang it! No matter how hard we scream for help, no one is going to hear us.
