Chapter 401 Fight Back
However, Cody just looked at everyone with a distressed expression, paying no attention to Pamela.
âHeh! Did you ever consider the consequences while you were busy bullying others?â Christopher scoffed. He then turned to whisper to Isabella, âBella, calling the police might not result in severe punishment. Perhaps we should consider another approach.â
Isabella shrugged nonchalantly. All that mattered was that she could vent her anger on Janiceâs behalf.
Christopher took the pearls that Janice had just picked up and suddenly tossed them into the pool.
âNo need to call the police. You, you, you, you, and you.â
Christopher gestured toward the group that had just bullied Janice, saying. âAll of you, go pick up the pearls. If even one is missing, weâre calling the cops. Donât say we didnât give you a chance.â
In an instant, the faces of those who were singled out became as unpleasant as they could possibly be.
Keenâeyed as she was, Isabella instantly noticed that Christopher had sneakily hidden away a pearl. Goodness! It would be a real surprise if they could gather everything!
When they were bullying Janice, they felt nothing. At that moment, however, they were steeped in deep humiliation.
They wanted to resist because they couldnât accept being treated that way.
However, the first thing Christopher said was, âDamaging other peopleâs property, coupled with the recent group bullying, I think itâs negotiable for your university to expel you. I advise you to recognize the situation. You can still smooth things over now, nut we might not be so lenient later.
â
Finally, the boy who had initially stayed in the pool, intimidated by Christopherâs stare, couldnât hold back any longer. He shouted, âWhat are you waiting for? Get in here now! Weâve already wronged someone. I donât want to get dragged down any further. Just in case this gets to the universityâ¦
Everyone was not a fool. Upon hearing their companionâs words, they immediately backed down.
In the past, people dared to brazenly bully Janice simply because she had no one backing her up.
After all, to everyone, Jaceâs biggest support was her boyfriend Cody. At that moment, however, it was obvious. that Cody was completely suppressed.
What w was truly incomprehensible was that these people, who were seemingly from the Quirk family, were siding with Janice instead of Cecilia. Perhaps it was a case of supporting logic over kinship, or maybe it was the internal power struggle of a prominent family. They certainly didnât want to be the cannon fodders. Naturally, theyâd take any opportunity to gracefully step down when presented with one.
One could only say that these guys had been thoroughly brainwashed, to the point where they hadnât even realized the issue with their identities until then.
In the end, only the leading girl among the students didnât follow along. Instead, she stared at Janice with reil, teary eyes, her whole body trembling âIt seems like itâs your first offense,â Isabella said with a mile. âYour family must be quite wealthy to be able to afford the damages for the bracelet.â Isabella could tell by the girlâs attire that she was clearly from a prominent young lady.
Chapter 401 Fight Back Pamela became even more infuriated when she was accused of being the culprit.
Meanwhile, the companions who were retrieving items from the pool were calling out Pamelaâs name and urging her.
This indeed allowed Isabella to learn Pamelaâs name in an instant.
Coincidentally, Isabella was curious as to why Pamela was so antagonistic toward Janice. Huh? So it was this girl who led the bullying against Janice. Let me see⦠It turns out she and Cody attended the same school. Her family does business with the Simmons family. Sheâs been infatuated with Cody since childhood, and outsiders even jokingly refer to her as the protector of the campus hunk.
She always chased off any girls who got close to Cody. If anyone became too friendly with him, as long as their status was lower than hers, she would rally her group to torment them, always looking for trouble. Janice wasnât the first. She thought Janice wasnât worthy of being Codyâs girlfriend, which is why for over a year, she⦠Wait⦠Let me look further!
Christopher and Rosalie were in the midst of their indignation when they were abruptly interrupted, immediately piquing their curiosity. What else has Bella stumbled upon?
Isabella suddenly turned to look at Cody, her expression shifting several times. Wow! I had a feeling this would happen. Just as I thought, huh? What a b*tch!
Before Isabella went berserk, she asked Pamela, âIâm curious. Why do you despise Janice so much? Has she done anything to hurt you?â
Pamela probably hadnât expected such a sudden question and was instantly taken aback. However, her gaze uncontrollably drifted toward Cody.
Janice naturally understood. She was very perceptive, aware that the other partyâs actions were due to Cody. In the past, she was reluctant to speak out, not wanting to attack another girl in this manner. But looking back, she thought she was really foolish. After all, the other party had been bullying her. I should fight back! I should act just like these people here!
