Alpha's Rejected Mate Returns as Queen

Chapter 264



Monday.

In my mind, I was only a short summer vacation away from school, but the reality was rather unfamiliar to me. What kind of place was this classical and gorgeous Baroque-style building complex?

Was this the Sivir Academy? What about those ordinary green academic buildings?

Dorothy said confidently, putting her arm around my shoulder, “I had the same reaction as you at the beginning. You’ll get used to it.”

“No, we didn’t come to the wrong place, right? The Sivir Academy has been acquired and transformed into an elite academy?”

“Of course not, have you forgotten? Adele and her plant army had destroyed the original school. For safety’s sake, the construction team decided to demolish the entire academy and rebuild it. Not only that, His Majesty has also specially approved a piece of land from the royal family’s property to be incorporated into the academy’s territory. Now, the entire academy is twice its original size!”

“A royal land?”

“Yes, it’s the property of the two Majesties. Although our academy is still quite far from the city center, the land price isn’t considered cheap.”

“Are the natives willing to leave their homes?”

“Of course, no one would be willing if there were no diseases or disasters, but there was a witch invasion here, and there are even remnants of the light cocoon’s magic power. The residents are all trying to avoid it. Not to mention that the compensation is generous enough, and you can also get a discount from the real estate company belonging to the royal family. If it were me, I would also be willing to move.”

This kind of wealthy and overbearing posture was inexplicably very fitting for the royal family.

There were less than two months left until graduation. At this time, one could clearly distinguish which students were about to graduate and which were still struggling in the sea of learning. No matter which department’s graduates they were from, they were all unusually relaxed and happy. They were often not holding computers or books in their arms, but all kinds of magazines, folders, or even all kinds of snacks and desserts.

The folders were mostly filled with academic plans or personal materials, while the magazines were mostly about fashion and parties. Those who were holding snacks and desserts were the happiest, which meant that they had finished all the complicated affairs and could begin to enjoy the long holiday happily.

In such a youthful environment, I couldn’t help but smile.

My return wasn’t very grand. Other than a few close friends, no one else was alarmed.

“Selma! I’ve missed you so much!” Avril hugged me warmly, lifting me off the ground with her strong arms.

Mara hugged me from behind, and with Dorothy, the four of us formed a ball.

My friends’ enthusiasm touched me, but I also had difficulty breathing. Fortunately, Perrin suggested, “Alright, girls. You still have a lot of time to catch up. Don’t be so anxious. Selma is about to suffocate.”

We had a small party at Mara and Avril’s dormitory.

After the baptism by the army, Avril became stronger and stronger, while Mara quickly became a qualified director under the influence of art. The collision of rules and romance erupted in a wonderful chemical reaction in the small dormitory. The neat rules and the casual disorder, disharmony, and order were in good order.

“Sorry, guys,” Mara said, a little embarrassed. “I worked until midnight last night, so I needed more time to clean up the room.”

“Not only last night, ” said Avril. “Mara’s lamp is always on until midnight every day. In the past few years, what I’ve been most worried about isn’t my grades, but the fact that I’m afraid that I’ll wake up one morning and find my friend suddenly dead in a pile of draft papers.”

“It’s not as exaggerated as you say. I also had a good rest!”

“Yes, yes. If a person who usually goes to bed at two in the morning suddenly goes to bed at midnight, she is considered to have had a good rest.”

The two of them fooled around for a while. Seeing Perrin’s helpless bitter smile and Dorothy’s ‘see what I said’ look, I chuckled.

The quarrels between my friends reminded me of our relationship three years ago. There was no estrangement, no distance. It was great.

After three rounds of drinks, when we were all flushed, Avril made an announcement.

“We’re getting ready to get married.”

She held Perrin’s hand, and they looked at each other. They smiled shyly.

Now, no one cared about the alcohol in their cups. We were extremely surprised. Even Mara, who was closest to Avril, couldn’t believe it. “You guys are getting married? When did that happen?”

“In July, a month after graduation.”

“No, I mean, when did you guys decide? Who proposed? Where?” Mara crossed her arms and said in dissatisfaction, “We agreed to help each other plan a surprise marriage proposal, but why didn’t I hear anything about it? Don’t tell me it was just a spur-of-the-moment thing between you two!”

Avril rolled his eyes at her question. “Be real, little girl. It’s a proposal, not a marriage. There’s no such thing as planned. Everything just happened naturally.”

“Naturally?” Mara looked like she was about to faint. “You sound like a scumbag. Did you propose first?” she asked.

Perrin laughed and said shyly, “Actually, I was the one who proposed to her first. On the day Avril retired from the army, I proposed to her at her house.”
