At Echo City University, Leland's status meant he could rule the roost. But where were they? They were in the heart of high society, where even setting foot inside required pedigree.
Yet, Leland had brought along a bunch of his middle-class mates. Such disregard for the occasion had rubbed the elite the wrong way.

The Ramsey family was already on their way over. Seeing Violet running toward them with her hair in a mess, Mr. Ramsey's face turned stormy.
"Freya! You traitor!" Already detesting Freya, Leland was furious at her for ruining his moment.
