The ceremony proceeded smoothly.
One by one, the students walked across the stage while their families applauded proudly from the audience.
When Xylia's name was called, whispers immediately spread across the hall.
Not only because she graduated with the highest honors. But because everyone knew she was Aciel De Silva's fiancée.
Xylia tried to ignore the attention as she walked gracefully toward the stage.
The principal handed her the diploma with a proud smile.
"Congratulations, Miss Antonov. We look forward to seeing your achievements in Rosedale University."
"Thank you, sir."
Flashes from cameras filled the hall as she accepted several medals and awards.
Aciel watched silently as he waited for his name to be called.
Simon sat beside him and smirked. "Your girl is popular."
Aciel frowned slightly. "She's not my girl."
"Really?" Simon chuckled. "Then why do you look like you want to kill every guy staring at her?"
