Chapter 523
"Bella, Mr. Bender is just a playboy. Don't fall for his tricks!"
"But it's really funny to see Mr. Bender carrying the pancakes and delivering them to you. He's finally
getting what he deserves."
"Bella, you are the campus belle of Guerrio University. There are plenty of handsome guys in our
school. So even if you want a boyfriend, you should find one at our school."
Arabella sat on the chair and took out her book. She never expected Ernesto to pursue her. Of course,
she would never agree to it.
"Ahem ahem."
At that moment, Mervyn cleared his throat heavily and walked in. He scolded, "Didn't you hear the bell
for class? Is there something wrong with your ears? Hurry back to your seat!"
Everyone quickly returned to their seats with dismissive sounds. Mervyn continued, "The annual
basketball game will be held in a week. In previous years, our basketball team could only reach second
place. Once we went up against Teaganian University, we were sure to be the underdogs. For years,
others have been mocking us as perennial runners-up. We can't excel in academics or even in
entertainment. Teaganian University has taken all the glory. If I were you, I'd have been ashamed to
death. Every time Mr. Hurley saw me, he always mocked me. This bald head of mine is a result of
being frustrated!"
Mervyn was filled with anger when it came to the basketball game. Guerrio University was completely
overshadowed by Teaganian University academically, and even in the basketball game, Guerrio
University couldn't turn the tables. It was infuriating.
Donavan, the captain and key player of the basketball team, immediately said, "Mr. Pannell, our skills
are definitely not a problem, but do you know why we lose every year? It's because we don't have a
good cheerleading squad!"
Donavan's words quickly gained the approval of the whole class, and everyone began discussing it.
"That's right, Mr. Pannell. Look at Teaganian University's cheerleading squad in previous years. The
cheerleader was the campus belle, Liliana. Their cheerleading uniforms were all custom-made short
skirts. Under Liliana's leadership, they swayed their waists and cheered on their seniors. Of course,
their players had the motivation."
"It is said that men and women working together can achieve great things. Just look at our
cheerleading squad. They're not attractive, and their uniforms are plain and shabby. It's really
embarrassing."
"Well..."
Mervyn thought about it and realized that this was indeed a problem. Teaganian University's
cheerleading squad was so impressive. Every year, the squad Liliana led became the most beautiful
scenery on the basketball court. The students at Guerrio University could only envy them and even
their eyes were fixed on Liliana. How could they possibly win the basketball game?
At this moment, Donavan stood up and said, "Mr. Pannell, this year is different. We have our own
campus belle at Guerrio University. Let Bella be the cheerleader and cheer us on!"
All eyes turned to Arabella. "Yes. If Arabella is the cheerleader, we'll promise to move forward and take
first place!"
Mervyn also looked at Arabella and, as he gazed at her small, exquisite face, he was momentarily
confused. He couldn't understand how Townley could have such a beautiful daughter. Was it a genetic
mutation? ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
But Mervyn's eyes lit up because he was also happy inside and thought, "The female students at
Guerrio University are also very attractive, not at all inferior to the ones at Teaganian University."
Mervyn asked, "Bella, everyone hopes that you'll lead the cheerleading squad. Are you willing?"
Everyone looked at Arabella with anticipation.
Arabella thought for a moment and then nodded. "Yes."
Of course, she would. She was now a part of Guerrio University, and she would do her best to fight for
the honor of the team.
"That's great!" Mervyn and all the other students cheered, but soon there was another practical
problem. "Bella, since you're the cheerleader, you'll have to compete against Teaganian University's
squad. We must defeat them. Otherwise, it'll affect our morale. However, it's very difficult to win. Liliana
is in charge of everything in the squad -- their uniforms, dance routines, even hairstyling and makeup.
She's very experienced and has hired Faykarta's best team. Everything is kept confidential until the
basketball game. Liliana is going places."
