Shelia nervously nudged Carrie. "Come on, stop talking


    Carrie shrugged it off.


    Debra didn''t even notice Shelia at first. She saw an empty spot and took it.


    As she passed by them, Debra noticed Shelia deliberately keeping her head down.


    Carrie stood up, blocking Debra''s path.


    "Do we know each other?" Debra asked in a pleasant tone, but there wasn''t a smile on her face.


    "I naturally know you, call girl. Everyone else here does Carrie raised her voice, making sure everyone around could hear.


    The scandal on the bulletin board had caused quite a stir, and most of the students had learned about it. Unperturbed, Debra waited for Carrie to finish speaking. "Someone like you, who climbs thedder using her looks and connections, should leave Arcane Academy. This isn''t your ce! Don''t bring shame to our school!" "Yeah, if this gets to the Education Bureau, you will be done for. Even those you bribed will be held ountable!" Wendy echoed.


    Shelia''s heart was pounding in her chest.


    Debra raised an eyebrow, ncing at Shelia, who sat silently in her chair,


    If the others didn''t know her, Shelia surely did.


    Under such scrutiny, Shelia felt guilty and spoke up, ''Carrie, you can''t use others without evidence."


    "Shelia, stay out of this!" Carrie proimed herself righteous, sneering, "Women like her who snatch boyfriends and look for sugar daddies don''t deserve our kindness!" "Oh?" Debra nced at Shelia, whose face instantly turned ashen.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.


    Snatching boyfriends, looking for sugar daddies... It was the first time Debra had beenbeled like this.


    "Carrie, please stop." Shelia was on the verge of tears, but to Carrie, it looked like she was deeply hurt by Debra''s presence.


    "Don''t be afraid, She! With me here, she won''t dare touch you!" Carrie red at Debra. "Do you think I don''t know why you''re here at this school? I won''t let you hurt my friend."


    Themotion attracted a crowd of onlookers.


    "What''s all the fuss about?" A cold voice cut through the chatter.


    Debra saw the surrounding students parting to make way. She turned around, surprised approaching.


    to see Jordan


    This was amoner''s cafeteria, mostly attended by students of modest means. Despite Arcane Academy being prestigious, there were different tiers, and students like She, with little ie, could


    only afford this high-value canteen.


    Those wealthy students rarely frequented this ce.


    That was why Debra was so surprised to see Jordan there.


    She had been keeping a low profile, trying to experience life. ''Is it the same for Jordan?


    She didn''t think so.


    "J-Jordan?" Carrie couldn''t believe her eyes.


    When she confirmed the fact, she instantly lost her confidence.
