Chapter 665: Chapter 665

Chapter 665 A wave of hushed whispers started to circulate.

“Did you hear? The top scorer is being kept by someone.”

“Really?”

“Somebody saw her kissing an older man at the school gate last night.”

“I heard she’s got a powerful background, and she’s the one who got the two Winters girls kicked out of school!”

“What? Aren’t the Winters family buddies with the McMillians? How strong must Arabella’s background be to not even fear the McMillians?”

“After Noreen left, Enid also bailed. I heard they’ve already processed their drop–out papers.”

“Who’d have thought this academically outstanding student could be so petty? She can’t stand others. Could it be because Enid and Noreen are so attractive, threatening her position?”

Myrna turned to look. Four girls in uniforms were heading towards the school supermarket, probably to grab something.

One of them, a long–haired girl, said, “I heard she used some dirty tricks to get into the Collins family. She even bullied Serena!

So annoying! If it weren’t for Serena’s kind parents, she’d have been kicked out long ago.”

Myrna couldn’t hold back anymore. She quickly walked up to them and said, “Hold–up”

The four girls turned around, puzzled at Myrna’s pretty but slightly angry face.

“What’s up?” they asked.

“You just said Arabella used tricks to get into the Collins family? What’s that about?” Myrna was slightly irritated. “You can’t just say whatever.” “Are you a friend of Arabella’s?” Delia Higgins couldn’t help but furrow her eyebrows. “How do you know I’m just blabbing? If you’re here to defend Arabella, you’ve got the wrong person and the wrong place!”

The other three girls also backed Delia up:

“Do you know who Delia is? Ever heard of the Higgins family? The mayors have to be polite in front of her dad!”

“How dare you talk to Delia like this? Who are you? What does your family do? Do you dare to tell us your name?”

“I suggest you apologize to Delia, let’s just let this slide.”

“Oh.” Myrna thought it was some famous person, but it turned out it’s not even that. “You know all about Bella’s family? And you just spout nonsense, we can sue you for defamation!”

“Arabella is no good!” Delia was furious, and she didn’t expect this pretty girl to protect Arabella so much. What’s so great about Arabella?

Myrna was angry. “Is the school’s education meant to produce trash like you?”

“I didn’t make things up. Serena told me herself! Arabella only got the opportunity to study because of the Collins family’s support so her top scores are because of the Collins family’s sponsorship!”

After Delia said this, she realized she’d said too much and covered her mouth. But then she thought there was no need to keep Serena’s secrets anymore, given how she’d been bullied. She had to let it out, let everyone know the real Arabella!

She continued, “Arabella, with her good looks and excellent grades, took advantage of the kindness of Serena’s parents and convinced them to adopt her. She became their adopted daughter and moved in with the Collins family. How else do you explain her being called Arabella Collins?”

Myrna couldn’t help but laugh. “So you’re saying Serena told you Arabella is a sponsored student of the Collins family, and because she’s eloquent and charming, she became the Collins‘ adopted daughter? Is that really it?”

“Isn’t that the case?” Delia was puzzled by her question.

“How do you figure Arabella is the type to play mind games and sweet–talk people? She’s always straightforward in handling things, nothing like your roundabout ways.”
