“ Rowena , you … you’re lying ! That’s not what happened ! You’re lying to me ! I heard your mom- Elysia began , her voice shaking with disbelief and 

Before she could finish her sentence , a sharp screams cut durough the air .

“ Ah ! What are you doing , Elysia ? “ 

Suddenly , Rowena collapsed to the ground , her body trembling violently as if she had been deeply wronged .

Her eyes welled up with tears , and she shook her head in exaggerated distress , sobbing uncontrollably 

“ Elysia , I’m sorry , I can’t cover for you anymore .

Skipping school is wrong ! How could I lie to the teacher and say you were late because you were sick like me Howena cried , her voice choke with enantion .

 

Hysia’s eyes we 

went wide in disbelief as she stared at Bowent on the ground .

She had no idea what was going on , but after everything that had happened before – those lies and accusations – her instincts sold her something was wrong .

 

Immediately , she bend down to offer Rowena a hand , thinking she might be trying in pull some kind of scam again .

 

But to her surprise , Rowena grabbed both of her hands and yanked them toward her neck , clutching her throat as she wailed .

“ Elysia , please , don’t choke met I really .

I can’t lie for you … 

Her voice was full of sobs and coughing , sounding heart – rending and fragde .

Her eyes too reflected terene and helplessness , making it seem as though Elysia was really hurting her .

 

“ What are you talking about ? Les go of the Elysia yelled , trying to pull away .

 

As Elysia struggled in bacak free , a middle – aged man with glasses suddenly appeared behind her .

With a swift somewhat clumsy move , he grabbed Elysia and pinned her down .

 

In that awkward position , she found herself face – to – face with own , who was still lying on the ground .

 

But instead of the expected pain or distress , Howena’s face was all smiles – morking , defiant , and scornful .

It was as if she were saying , “ I’ve won 

Then a booming voice rang out in Elysia’s ears .

“ How dare you bully a classmate in broad daylight ? This is outrageous ! Do you really think 1 , David Jones , amesomeune pourran mess with ? 

“ I can’t believe it ! Not only are you skipping class , but you’re abo bullying a student ” 

His voice echoed in her car , the volume making her head spin .

The force of his words felt like they were trying to shatter her eardrums .

No matter how land Elysia struggles , she combly’t break free from his grip .

 

The forcer , bent over position made her feet salfocated , and the unrelenting scolding was starting to push her to the brink She felt like she was about to snap 

Unable to take it any longer , Elysia did the only thing she could think of She sank her teeth into David’s thick arm , and for the first time , the grip loosened enough for her to pull away .

 

Rowena , for a moment , seemed surprised by the sudden resistance .

But her eyes gleamed with satisfaction .

Her smile widened , and she muttered under her breath .

“ How stupid .

She actually dared to resist David .

Now she’s rrally in for it .

Maybe she’ll even get expelled ” 

Elysia overheard her muttering clearly and couldn’t help but clench her fists .

She thought , ‘ Expelled ! No ! That can’t happen ! This is the one chance I fought so hard for – to go to schoolf

In a panic , Elysia hurried over to David’s side , bowing awkwardly as she apologized .

Tm sorry ! I’m so sorry , Mr.

Jones ! I didn’t mean to , I just … I just .

.

” 

It’s too loud , too overwhelming But she couldn’t bring herself to explain the real reason – she was terrified that it would only make David angrier .

Desperately , she searched for anything she could say to fix the sination 

“ You can hit me , or scald me – just please don’t send me home ! I really want to stay in school study hard .

I promise … Please , can I say ? ” she 

asked .

 

David nanowed his eyes , surprised , thinking .

This rebellious student , so quick to apologize I have never seen anything like it .

But after all the trouble she has caused , simply apologizing won’t cut it .

I need to call her parents in ‘ 

“Which grade and class are you ind ” be asked .

 

Rowena hadn’t expected the usually stern David to soften so quickly .

Soring her chance , she quickly interrupted , her voice trembling with emotion , “ Mr.

Jones .

I’m in Class 2.

Grade 1.

This is … my sister , Elysia 

“ But … since she didn’t want to go to school before , Dad had no choice but to put her in the same clay as me .

“ What ? ” Elysia’s eyes widened , and she immediately protested , “I didn’t refuse to go to school ! It was Althea who wouldn’t let me study ! ” 

Before Flyxia could say more , Rowena darted forward and grabbed David’s sleeve , continuing with tears in her eyes , “ No , Mr.

Jones , you’ve misunderstood ! My sister didn’t skip school , she’s just … she’s just sick , like me .

 

“ We were ju 

were just fooling around earlier .

She didn’t mean to hurt me , and she didn’t mean to bite you either .

Please .

Mr.

Jones , don’t punish her .

” 

David , who had softened a little , immediately hardened his expression again .

“ Enough .

Stop making excuses for her .

I can see exactly what she’s done .

Don’t think I’m blind .

Get your parents in here ” 

At that moment , Elysia felt like an invisible hand was tightening around her chest , squeezing her heart and lungs .

She felt every breath become more painful .

She parted her lips , but no words came out 

The live – streaming screen now flashed with comments .

 

[ Wait wasn’t it just mentioned that David personally caught Elysia skipping class ? Is that him ! ] 

( My poor Elysia is bring completely wronged Watching her rush all the way to school just breaks my heart , and now they’re accusing her of skipping claws and hitting people ? ) 

[ When I heard her say she’d rather disfigure herself to stay in school , I thought it was just an act .

But now it really seems like going to school is .

everything to her ] 

( I can’t watch this anymore .

If Rupert shows up , 

up , how much more humiliation is Elysia going to have to take ! 

[ Well don’t jump to conclusions yet .

There are cameras at the school gate , right ? They can’t just punish Elysia without checking the footage first , can they ?!
