Chapter 34 - Chapter 34

"Silence students! What Harley told is correct! I was never the type of Mr. Godfrey and Mrs. Poppy Lunaria's type of women wad the only favourite of sir Godfrey!"

This was said by Lucy herself nodding in approval as she said further,"Well... um.. Mr. Harley Sawyer, please tell me, how did you know about that!"

Theair surrounding Harley tensed. He could feel the pressure that was landingright upon his shoulders. But with deep breaths, he relaxed and finally spoke, confidence in his face,"Mrs. Lucy Bourbon, if I can say in one sentence, I would say that I was indeed, informed about it by Mrs. Poppy Lunaria herself!

if I say the whole, then I would like to say, miss Lucy, that aunt.. um sorry.. Mrs. Poppy had told me herself about it! She had told me that Mr. Godfrey's attention seeker would always be miss Poppy herself, even if she would not talk to him!

Also, she had told me once that he even tried to proposeher to become his wife but couldn't muster the courage because he feared that if she rejected him, then their bond as friendswould break in that very momentonly! But he mustered his courage, but soon got the news that miss Poppy would only marry a man whom she likes and he knew he was nowhere on her league and again failed."

This 'long' speech given by Harley shocked everyone, but not Luna and Lucy, because they were aware of the fact. Then, Lisa burst in anger,"What do you think you are, Harley? Did you just say that he married Mrs. Poppy!"

"SILENCE!!! I want silence to be here. And yes, Harley is again correct. The fact that Mr. Godfrey had triedmany times proposing to her and only failed to even say a word is indeed true!

This was said by Mr. Godfrey himself 3 days after the very day where he had brought Mrs. Poppy to prom in a party.

Even though his closest friends had helped him to get them together for the party, but yes, he confessed publicly,without the help of anybody when he couldn't handle the pressure in his heart! But even if this happened, she didn't responded to it but only saying that she felt uncomfortablearound him!"

But then, Harley stood up and said,"Mrs. Lucy, can you please tell me the reason of your visit!"

"Good question, dear Harley! The reason of my visit is to just give some precious time ofmine to the students of the school where me, Poppy, Godfrey, Harley and lastly Friedrik had studied!"

"Oh I see miss!" said Harley, his face relaxed visibly. Then Cassie, who was sitting there, listening to their conversation, finally spoke,"Mrs. Lucy, can you say.. um.. What are the ways to judge a man?"

"What is the reason to judge a man? Is it for marriage, romantic relationship, diplomacy, friendship or what!?" said Lucy as she was caught off guard by the question.

"It is indeed for marriage." said Lisa as she was drinking water from another girl's bottle as her bottle was empty.

Then Cassie said,"It's for... um... mmm.. marria- sorry sorry, for friendship only. Why will I establish romance with a man! Yes it's true that I'm already a fiance of aman. But still.."

After hearing from Cassie, she nodded slightly and then replied"Okay okay, I will tell you. So-"

Then came the talk between Cassie and Lucy. Their discussion and choices and preferencesamong men made the boys realise that they had little or no chance to be atleast a friend of hers, let alone romantic relation with her!

The time passed in a blink of an eye. The students had already percieved that the class, which was originally for their History class had turned to a 'chatting' class, a type of free class where students would talk with popular people, and there was no restrictions on the question types- romance, history, marriage, criminal cases and so on.
