The entire room sat in focused silence, scribbling down notes diligently, even those who believed they stood no
chance.
Among them, Cedric was also seen jotting down notes with unwavering concentration.
In stark contrast, Alexander and Keith remained seated upright, showing no interest in taking notes.

“Cedric,” Lillian said as she handed him a thick notebook.
“Daniela gave it to you.”
