Seeing this, the commoner girl cried out, "My dear, I will never forget you! I love you—" and then jumped off the cliff.

The End.

"..."

Everyone present seemed stunned by this groundbreaking work, falling into an unspeakable silence.

"Was the prince in this story really not mentally unstable when he jumped off the cliff?" Wayne asked, looking completely bewildered.

...Lawrence, did you also attend a course in watching melodramatic soap operas at 8 PM?

"Tsk, this is love, this is romance!"

Lawrence slammed his hand on his manuscript in anger. "What kind of expressions are those? Aren't you moved?!"

"I'm so...touched." The minister burst into tears in an instant.

Seeing that he actually cried, Lawrence felt a little embarrassed.

"No, there's no need to be so touched," he said with a rather smug air.

He even took a handkerchief out of his pocket and handed it to the minister.

Here, wipe it clean.

"Waaah... Thank you."

Wait, she must have been so heartbroken that she couldn't help but shed tears because she thought about how the drama club's activity room was going to be gone!

He didn't even know where to begin criticizing all these flaws.

However, another voice came from beside Wayne.

“Excellent! This story has great potential.”

Wayne was stunned, looking at Chris with a bewildered expression.

Are you serious?

Do you want this earth-shattering, tear-jerking melodramatic love story to unfold in the academy?

"A love story between a prince and a commoner is sure to be a hit! It's guaranteed to be a sensation in the entire capital!" She waved her hand, as if she could see the cheers erupting from the audience.

Commoners...commoners!

Wayne's expression changed, and he glanced at Lawrence.

Sure enough, a smug smile appeared on his face.

"Right! I racked my brains to write this story~" he said proudly.

"—To achieve the best results, it would be best to find a classmate who can play themselves to play the lead role."

Chapter 153 She truly deserves to be called the female lead!

"Oh?"

Wayne asked in a very calm tone, "It seems you already have someone in mind."

“Hehehe, that’s right!” Lawrence crossed his legs. “I think Tasia Louis is very suitable for this role.”

This guy, he definitely has ill intentions.

They make it sound so high-sounding, but aren't they just using the guise of a performance to take advantage of Tasia?

“Acting, understand?” Wayne said speechlessly. “If every performance has to be played by someone exactly like the character in the script, what about all the hard work and sweat that people put in behind the scenes to hone their acting skills?”

"Those people, of course... also have a very hard time."

Despite being interrupted, Lawrence insisted, "However, if it's about playing yourself, of course, the best effect will be achieved by finding the person closest to you to play the role!"

"It was because I kept thinking about Tasia that I created such a beautiful story!"

He made this declaration without the slightest blush.

...The taste...it feels so perverted.

Moreover, that strange "you jump, I jump too" ending is a tragedy no matter how you look at it!

Wayne sighed, expressing his doubt: "Can a story like this really convince Tasia to join the drama club? Don't cause trouble for others."

"...To be honest, I have already gone to see her. But she didn't even look at my story before rejecting me."

After saying that, Lawrence said indignantly, "How dare they look down on my masterpiece!"

He turned his head sharply, staring intently at Wayne and Chris.

"Therefore, this task will be left to you to complete!"

Wayne curled his lip. "Don't even think about it."

"How could you do this! Don't you want the drama club to win a great victory?!"

But apart from him, everyone else had a blank expression on their face.

Chris sat in her seat and casually flipped through Lawrence's manuscript.

"The story is generally quite good, but many details need to be changed."

"You... what did you say! My story is already in its perfect state, not a single word needs to be changed!" Lawrence said arrogantly.

"Oh, I see. In that case, you can go play by yourself."

Chris put down his manuscript and said with a hint of regret, "I was thinking of persuading Tasia to join the drama club, but it seems I won't have to bother."

Lawrence's eyes lit up.

"Are you serious?"

"Isn't this a bit much?" Wayne interjected in a low voice. "Tasia already has a bad relationship with some girls because of Richard. If she acts out a script like this, won't that just attract even more hatred?"

Chris seemed to have a solution to his concerns.

"So, that's why the script had to be revised."

She patted Wayne on the shoulder and said, "Let me tell you a corny joke—"

"One day, the king and prime minister of a certain country summoned a minister together in the garden. The king said to the minister: We are prepared to kill 100,000 people from a neighboring country, as well as a carriage repairman."

The minister asked in astonishment: "A carriage repairman? Why kill a carriage repairman?"

The king turned around, patted the prime minister on the shoulder, and said: "See? I told you no one would care about those 100,000 people from the neighboring country!"

Then, she looked at Wayne with a wise and meaningful gaze.

"..."

Wayne was defeated by her. "Whatever makes you happy."

Lawrence, who also heard Chris's words, looked bewildered: "What do you mean by repairing carriages? What do you mean by 100,000 people from neighboring countries?"

Wayne cleared his throat dramatically and translated for Chris: "It basically means that they want to use other, more attention-grabbing stories to cover up the inequality in status between commoners and princes."

Seeing that he had perfectly understood her meaning, Chris nodded with satisfaction.

“Wayne, you’re ready to graduate.”

……

Chris refused Wayne's attempt to probe about how to make the changes, citing the need to keep it a secret for the time being.

"You'll find out when Tasia joins the drama club and rehearsals begin."

She seemed very confident.

The perfect opportunity for the two of them to persuade Tasia was a weekend trip.

Early in the morning, the two packed their belongings and took a carriage to Tasia's bakery to pick her up.

However, on the surface, it appeared that only the two of them and a driver had set off; in reality, there were two other groups of people hiding around providing them with protection.

To put it simply, Wayne and Chris are cicadas, the members of the Joint Investigation Team are mantises, and the Winchester family's squire magic corps are orioles.

It would be fine if those rebels didn't show up this time, but if they did, they would probably be trapped with no chance of escape.

Before their departure, the Duke of Elliott had already informed them—

"Stay alert, but don't panic."

Ah, it's so comfortable to have someone to rely on!

Wayne turned his gaze from the window to Chris.

Today she wore a very soft white dress, with a delicate vest over her waist that accentuated her beautiful waistline.

Both elegant and skillful.

Chris noticed Wayne's gaze and raised an eyebrow: "What are you looking at?"

"Look at you."

Sitting opposite her, Wayne was still not satisfied and bent over, wanting to switch places and sit next to Chris.

A soft "thump" was heard.

Chris, quite unladylike, raised her leg and braced it against the car door.

This also blocked Wayne's path.

“No, this position belongs to Tasia,” she said with a half-smile.

Seeing her looking like she was plotting something shady, Wayne had nothing to say and could only obediently sit back down in his original seat.

Before long, they arrived at Tasia's house.

To express their gratitude, Tasia's mother and daughter made a lot of snacks to give to Chris and Wayne so they could take them on their journey.

"Thank you, Auntie. We'll take Tasia with us now and bring her back before dark," Chris said with a sweet smile.

Her friendly tone made the woman, whose face looked slightly weathered, lower her guard a little.

"Please be careful on the road," the woman waved.

Tasia also stuck half her head out of the car window to say goodbye to her mother.

Across from the carriage, Wayne looked at Tasia with a smile.

I always feel a sense of warmth just watching the protagonist do these ordinary things.

As expected of the true leading lady, Miss Tasia.

Wayne was suddenly kicked in the shin.

"hiss--"

He gasped, his expression changing.

Oh no! I've gotten a little too carried away in this atmosphere that feels like a class field trip.

Beside Tasia, Chris was staring at him with a warning look.

Chapter 154 How dare you flirt with another woman right in front of me?

Isn't that a common saying?

If two people go out to eat together, the closest seats are not actually directly opposite each other, but to the left or right.

Wayne sat across from them, further away, watching Chris and Tasia chatting and laughing.

The carriage traveled smoothly on the paved road, with silvery laughter occasionally emanating from inside.

Only Wayne propped his head up, looking resentful.

He used to genuinely like stories with two female leads!

But why does he feel like he's eating a lemon right now?

When the three arrived late, Gavin and Molly were already waiting for them at the agreed meeting point.

Wayne saw from afar that Gavin was trying to say something to Molly, but Molly looked annoyed.

Just then, Molly inadvertently turned her gaze and happened to see the carriage bearing the Winchester family crest.

"Lady Chris!" she cheered and came forward.
