âYou shouldnât be apologizing to me.â
Wilsonâs voice was icy. His gaze was cold and fierce, making everyone even more terrified.
âMr. Quinnâ¦â Nora tried to suppress her fear and spoke again, trying to look as pitiful as possible.
âYouâve misunderstood. It was Yvette who hit me first and caused all these injuries. My father was just angry and wanted to defend meâ¦â
As she spoke, she tearfully lifted her shirt to reveal her bruises. âMr. Quinn, youâre of great standing, but I believe youâre also just and fair. You wouldnât abuse your power to protect someone unjustly.â
She was flattering Wilson, implying that if he continued to side with Yvette, heâd be abusing his power.
Noraâs eyes darted around. She had to make Wilson see Yvetteâs true, malicious nature. Only then would he stop being deceived by that wench. Her family might still have a chance to tum things around as well.
As this thought crossed Noraâs mind, she eagerly continued, âMr. Quinn, look at what Yvette did to me. Iâm the victim here. If you keep protecting her, it will harm your reputationâ¦â
âExactly!â Andrew chimed in, his tone humble. âMr. Quinn, weâre not at fault here. We donât even want an apology now. We just hope youâll show us some mercyâ¦. Î Wilsonâs eyes turned a shade colder as he listened to their pleas. A chilling aura surrounded him.
âSamuel, show them the surveillance footage.â
He didnât care about his own reputation, but he wouldnât allow anyone to misunderstand Yvette.
âYes, Mr. Quinn!â Samuel responded immediately.
Knowing that Yvette had been called to the deanâs office, Wilson had ordered Samuel to retrieve the classroomâs surveillance footage to prevent Nora from falsely accusing Yvette.
Upon hearing that, Nora turned pale instantly. Before she could protest, Samuel played the video in front of everyone.
In the video, Nora was seen placing ice water on the classroom door when there was no one around. She even had a sinister smile while triumphantly muttering, âHaha! Yvetteâs getting it this time.â
âTurn it off⦠Turn it off!â
Noraâs face tumed even more ashen. She struggled to reach the monitor, but a group of bodyguards blocked her..
âWho did you say was at fault here?â Wilsonâs cold gaze fell on Andrew, his chilling presence making everyone shiver. âYouâve wronged my dear Yvie.â
Andrewâs legs weakened under his terrifying gaze. If he hadnât held onto the wall for support, he would have collapsed. He hurriedly grabbed Nora and slapped her hard across the face.
âHow dare you do something so disgraceful and try to frame your classmate? You deserved to be beaten up! Now, apologize to Yvette immediately!â
Within minutes, Noraâs face became swollen. She looked somewhat amusing Despite her burning hatred, she suppressed her humiliation, bowed toward Yvette, and apologized to her. âYvette, Iâm sor Sorry.
×× It was all my fault. Please forgive me just this onceâ¦â
Yvette was only this arrogant because she had Wilsonâs backing.
Nora thought inwardly, âJust wait until Wilson gets bored of her. She would be nothing then!â
She had to endure it for now. Later, she would inform Yasmin about what happened. Yasmin would surely find a way to deal with that wench!
