Lily arched her brow. She then swiftly dashed to Shannon and dragged Shelby out. Holding Shrby by the collar, she turned to snap at Shannon, “Do you really think I’ll do anything for your sake?
Shannon’s expression soured, but she did not retort because she sensed that her classmates were judging her in a different light. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Lily ignored Shannon and shifted her focus to Shrby. “No one has dared to go back on their word in my life, but you have, and I’ll make you pay the price. That’s how I play.”
“W–What are you going to do?” Shelby struggled to break free, but her attempts were futile because Lily held onto her with great strength.
Lily lifted a finger and pinched Shelby on the arm. They heard a crack of the bone, followed by Shelby’s agonizing scream.
Next, Lily tossed Shelby onto the ground. She stared at her victim emotionlessly, “You have Jason Martinez to thank.“”
With that, Lily left. She merely broke Shelby’s arm without crippling it permanently, and she spared Shelby from that fate for Jason’s sake.
The Class 18 students left with Lily in high spirits. They felt satisfied for successfully defending their honor. After they were looked down on for their poor academic performance and losing fights to Class 17 due to Jack’s threatening presence, they relished this sweet victory against Class 1.
Joseph arrived at school early in the morning. His first agenda was to summon Corvina Frias, Head of Student Affairs, to look into the school forum post mentioned by Loid. Corvina was well–informed about everything that happened on campus. She logged in to the school forum and immediately got an idea of the situation.
She confessed, “Ah, these are just some rumors created by the students. I saw the post a while ago, but I didn’t take any action because the post mentioned the Martinez family,” “The Martinezes?” Frowning, Joseph ordered, “Show me that post.”
Corvina handed her phone to Joseph. His face tell after reading the post. Before this, he had heard of the arranged marriage between the Lauriers and the Martinezes without knowing the particulars.
His interest was piqued when Corvina mentioned the Martinezes. After reading the post, he put on a troubled look. “How did Lily get involved in this drama?”
“Haven’t you heard about it? There were rumors of Loid Laurier of Bridgeport’s engagement to a Martinez, but it somehow ended with him getting engaged to Lily Brooks.” Corvina stole another look at Joseph before adding, “Later, someone claimed that it was Lily who stole Shannon Martinez’s fiancé There are multiple versions of the story, didn’t look into it.”

Joseph nearly laughed at the absurdity of the motion. He thought, “Lily Brooks stealing Shannon Martinez’s flance? Are you serious? Lily will never do anything like that. She never covets anything that isn’t hers.”
He sighed heavily before issuing a firm directive to Corvina, “Please remove this post immediately and issue a warning to the responsible student. Then, make a public announcement stating that any students found spreading falsehoods on the school forum will face expulsion”
Stunned, Corvina gasped. “Mr. Woodley, you never used to care for these matters. What’s gotten into you?”
“Just do as I said!” Joseph rubbed his temples. “If we don’t take action, Ember Creek High School will risk being taken apart.”
Trembling in fear, Corvina hurried out to execute the task.
