Chapter 231 Turning Down Invitation

All eyes in the classroom turned towards the door, where Lucy appeared.

Zelena was the first to greet her. "Lucy, what brings you here?"

There were only two people in the class who were members of the dance club, Zelena and Hattie. Zelena

thought without a second thought that Lucy had cto find her. Lucy walked into the classroom under the

gaze of everyone present.

Violeta had been standing in the middle of the classroom. Now that Zelena's matter was resolved, she continued

walking towards the back row.

Unexpectedly, Lucy suddenly called out from behind. "Violeta."

Huh?

The students in the class were all very surprised.

Zelena was also taken aback. Could it be that Lucy didn't cto see her but to find Violeta?

Impossible ...

Violeta turned, her gaze steady. "What's up?"

Lucy hesitated for a moment before speaking. "Are you free this Saturday?"

"Why?" Violeta asked.

Lucy was direct. "I'd like to invite you to my birthday party this Saturday."

Everyone was taken aback.

A second later, the entire class buzzed with astonishment.

"I can't believe it. Lucy personally cto invite Violeta to her birthday party?"

"Who was it that said Violeta wasn't worthy of an invitation before? Now Lucy cin person."

"This is unbelievable."

Zelena's expression froze.

Hattie frowned, finding it all quite unbelievable. Why would Lucy personally cto invite Violeta?

They told everyone about Lucy's birthday party through the club announcement, so why the special treatment

for Violeta?

Violeta looked puzzled and surprised.

She hadn't expected Lucy to invite her personally, considering they were not friends.

Sure, Lucy's birthday party might be a "high-end party" at school, but honestly, Violeta wasn't feeling it at all.

She didn't want to attend this so-called "high-end party." Besides, if she did go, it would only be fun if she went

with close friends. Even if Violeta agreed to go with her, it would definitely be awkward tomorrow. She wasn't the

type to willingly put herself in an uncomfortable situation just for appearances.

"Sorry, I'm busy tomorrow."

Everyone was taken aback, again.

With that, Violeta turned away and continued towards the back row, showing she meant it.

Lucy was left standing there, taken aback. She had expected Violeta might say no, but she didn't think Violeta

would flat-out refuse without a second thought.

Accompanying Lucy was Casey.

Seeing this unfold, Casey stepped up beside Lucy and called out to Violeta's retreating figure, "Hey Violeta, Lucy

cover herself to invite you. You're not showing much appreciation!

"So many people at school want to go but can't. She gives you a face, but you don't want it. What are you so

proud of?"

Casey couldn't stand Violeta's indifferent attitude, but she felt helpless.

Violeta turned to glance at her. "You're askingwhat I'm proud of? Hmph! Having Lucy cto invite me

personally-isn't that something to be proud of? Stop asking such brainless questions in the future." Casey

retorted, "You! Who are you calling brainless?"

Violeta mocked, "Who's brainless? It's you."

Casey's face flushed with anger, about to retort, but Lucy pulled her back.

"Forget it. Let's go," Lucy said.

Casey felt embarrassed, and Lucy felt the same.

The two left the classroom.

Violeta headed to the back row and left the classroom with Kaylee.

Zelena and Hattie looked very upset.

They had been boasting in class for a long tabout how they were going to Lucy's birthday party, and they

were so proud of it.

They had mocked Violeta earlier for not being able to go, but now the tables had turned so quickly!

Lucy actually cto the class personally to invite Violeta, and got rejected!

What was going on?

Hattie felt very unfair about it. If she had known from the beginning, she would never have boasted with Zelena

about Lucy's birthday party.

Violeta left the classroom with Kaylee.

Kaylee, puzzled, asked Violeta, "Vio, why didn't you go to Lucy's birthday party?"

Violeta replied, "People who go to Lucy's birthday party are all connected to her. We're not on good terms, and

going might just cause more trouble. And Lucy probably didn't genuinely want to invite me. She must have had

other motives."

Even before Lucy's birthday party rumors started spreading at school, she had gone to invite Jasper.

But from Jasper's attitude back then, it seemed he wasn't interested and didn't want to go.

So when Lucy cto invite Violeta, maybe she had ulterior motives, trying to get Violeta to attend the party. If

Violeta agreed, maybe Jasper and his friends would also end up coming along. Violeta disliked being schemed

against.

If she and Lucy were close, she might help her out this time.

But she didn't get along with Lucy, so why should she do what she wanted?

Kaylee nodded. "Yeah, not going is probably for the best."

Soon, word spread around the school that Violeta had turned down Lucy's birthday party invitation.
