Chapter 148 Compromise
Angie was holding onto Willow's hand so tight that it was as if she was holding onto her last
hope. Willow wasn't pleased. What is she doing? Does she need to do this? Why should I clean up
the mess she has made in another school?âAngie, I believe I've done my part. Back then, you were
the one who uploaded the photos on the forum, so it has nothing to do with me. I've already
helped you, no? Why are you taking advantage of my kindness?â Willow pulled her hand away from
Angie and warned, âI'm warning you. Don't ever show up in front of me again. Otherwise, I'm going
to teach you a lesson. Also, watch your mouth. I'm sure you know what not to say.âAngie stared at
her in disbelief. If she didn't send those photos to me, how would everything happen?âWillow, if I'm
going down, I'll be sure to drag you down with me. You'd better find another school for me.
Otherwise, I'm going to come after you. Mason doesn't know about your misdeeds, right? Do you
think you would still have a chance with him if he finds out about this?â With that, Angie turned
around and left.So, this is Willow's true self. She's such a disgusting woman.After Angie left, Willow
leaned against the wall and took a deep breath. Now, Mason is already treating me with such a bad
attitude. If he finds out I was involved in those incidents, he'll never forgive me.Jipsdale is a huge
place. I'm sure the Tanner family has the ability to make a small fry like her vanish into thin airlA
chilling glare flashed across Willow's eyes when she murmured to herself, âAngie, you'd better
watch what you do. If not, I won't show you mercy."Willow couldn't help but feel troubled when she
thought about Mason's attitude toward her. That manâs heart must be made of stone. How has he
not softened up after all the time I've spent with him?When Willow got out of the alley, she bumped
into her followers."Willa, what were you doing in the alley?â one of them asked. Apparently, that
alley was the place where most of the bullies in the school would settle their disagreements
privately. What was she doing there alone?âIt's nothing. Stop asking me about it,â Willow
answered."Willa, I saw Angie just now. What is she doing back here?"âHow would I know? Do you
think I have the time for that?â Willow didnât want the conversation to continue, and she just wanted
to get out of there. When she arrived at the school's entrance, she saw Angie there, staring back at
her.Willow's heart skipped a beat. F*ck! Why is she still here?Right then, Sophie and Ysabelle
appeared at the entrance. Seeing that Angie was about to approach Sophie, Willow immediately ran
toward Angie and grabbed her hand before dragging her out of there.âWilla?" Her followers were
stumped. What just happened? Where did she go?After that, they started talking among
themselves.â"What's going on? Why did Angie look for Willow?"I heard Angie was having a tough
time at her new school. Not only was she constantly bullied by the other girls, but they had also
stripped her naked in public.â In fact, Angie's life in her new school was far different from when she
was in Jipsdale Premier High. There, the students would fight very often. Obviously, that wasn't an
environment that a goody two shoes like Angie could survive."Is it really that bad?"âOh, yes. It's that
bad. However, how does any of it have to do with Willa? Although Willa is a kind person, what can
she do to help?"âCould it be that Angie is bullying Willa?"The conversation went on.Unsurprisingly,
Sophie and Ysabelle had spotted Angie earlier on. Besides, they also heard the conversation
Willow's followers were having.âServes her right! That's what she gets for talking sh*t about you.â
Ysabelle had no sympathy for Angie at all. Since she dared to hurt Soph, she deserves every bit of
hardship she gets.Sophie, on the other hand, didnât have anything to say.That was because Angie
was not anyone important to her. If she didn't show up in front of Sophie that day, Sophie would
have already forgotten about her existence.âAngie transferred to Jipsdale High. That's the worst
school in Jipsdale because most of the students there are gangsters,â Ysabelle added.âI'm not
interested.â Indeed, none of those so-called gangsters could compare to Sophie.âAll right. Let's just
forget about her. Whatever it is, she deserves it. That's what she gets for getting into bed with
Willow.â Ysabelle then went into the school with Sophie."Ysabelle, are you all right?â Ysabelle didnât
seem like her usual self that day, and she didnât eat much for dinner.âI'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?
Don't worry, okay?â Ysabelle didnât want Sophie to worry about her. Well, it's not like anyone can
help me with what I'm going through.Sophie walked up beside Ysabelle and put her arm over her
shoulders.Suddenly, Ysabelle felt aggrieved. âSoph, do you know that if I could choose my own
destiny, I would rather be born into an ordinary family? In that case, I can do what I like."Her father
was livid because of the video taken in the karaoke bar. He thought she had done it on
purpose.Sophie patted her shoulder and said, âEven if you are a Lombard, you can still do what you
like. You have my support.â No matter what the others had to say, she would still support
Ysabelle."Okay.â Ysabelle was touched.After the self-study session, Sophie received a call from Arius,
and she wanted to look for him right away. However, she saw Tristan waiting for her outside the
school when she was leaving."Why are you here?â Since she was busy, she wouldn't leave with him
even if he was there to fetch her.Upon hearing that, Tristan furrowed his brows. She doesnât seem
like she wants me here. Otherwise, why would she have that expression on her face?"What's wrong?
Are you busy?â Judging by the look on her face, Tristan could tell that she wasn't planning on going
back to Wisteria Apartments.âYes. I need to pay someone a visit. Hence, whatever you came here
for, could we leave it for tomorrow?â Sophie thought she had made herself clear.Felix didn't dare to
utter a word after he saw the look in Tristanâs eyes. Felix was there to apologize to Ysabelle because
he was the reason the video went viral. However, he got a feeling that it was a mistake to go
there."Can I leave now?â Sophie glanced at Tristan.Tristan nodded. What else can I say? She's always
so busy, and she has a lot of people to meet. I bet I don't even matter much to her.Sophie felt bad
when she saw the look on his face.That being said, she was dealing with something that concerned
Josiah. Hence, it was very important.â"How about this? Go over to Wisteria Apartments to wait for
me, okay?â Sophie had done something she had never done in her life. She had compromised
because of how sad Tristan looked."Okay. No matter what you're going to do, take care of yourself.â
Tristan was happy with her suggestion.
