Abstract: We construct a metrizable simplex $ X$ and a Baire-two function $ f$ on $ X$ satisfying the barycentric formula such that $ f$ is not of affine class two; i.e., there is no bounded sequence of affine Baire-one functions on $ X$ converging to $ f$. This provides an example of a Banach $ \mathcal{L}_\infty$-space $ E$ such that $ E_{2}^{**}\neq E_{\mathcal{B}_2}^{**}$.
