Chapter 39 Flatter Him

Kelsey was on the first floor of the cafeteria.

She bowed her head, pushed the crowd away, and ran out with red

eves.

She was a straight–A student, a goddess at Elsa Noble High School, and had always been elegant, gentle, and kind.

It never occurred to her that her persona would get ruined completely today.

Those who had defended her at first all looked at her strangely.

They whispered, “If it weren’t for the exposure of the IP addresses, I would have thought that Kelsey was indeed pretty and kind!”

“What a phony!”

“No wonder she gets kicked out of the Watson’s place. She is so malicious. Whoever lives under the same roof as her will have to look over their shoulders all the time!”

Kelsey put her hands over her ears and picked up the pace.

Carlic was also facing criticism and ridicule, yet she was tough, and she felt indignant for Kelsey.

Carlie thought, “Audrey is the one who brags. So what if Kelsey smears Audrey anonymously? Kelsey is telling the truth!”

She got up from the floor and glared at Audrey, who was slowly continuing to eat.

She then thought, “You stupid fuck. I’ll let you walk around with your head held up high for a bit few more days. I’ll see how you end up after the test results are out!”

After Kelsey ran out of the cafeteria, she went to the dean’s office.

The dean favored obedient students with excellent academic. performance.

Kelsey wept out her grief. He heard her words and pulled a long face. “Who is bold enough to steal school information and compromise. students‘ privacy?”

The dean asked the technician to come over and wanted the technician. to delete the post that exposed the privacy of the students, yet the technician could not delete it whatsoever.

Sweating, the technician said, “The poster is good at this. The forum is locked by the poster, and the post will remain the top post for three days.”

Kelsey heard the technician’s words.

She thought, “In other words, the post can’t be deleted until after the monthly exam.

“I’ve always been the gentle, sensible goddess at school, and I never gossip behind anyone’s back.

“As long as the post is there, my image will be greatly jeopardized!”

She burst into tears, sniffed, and said pitifully, “Dean, why don’t we call the police?”

The dean shook his head at once. “This is the school’s internal matter.

If it gets out and affects the school’s reputation, can you bear the consequences?”

The dean had seen the two most popular posts on the forum and knew the cause of Kelsey’s grievance. He said in a deep voice, “In my opinion, Audrey is the chief culprit. She is with the worst grades, and yet she talks big, and the whole school knows about it. After the exam results come out, I will ask her to write a letter of self–criticism and do some deep self–reflection in front of the whole school.”

There was an imperceptible smile on Kelsey’s face stained with tears after she heard the dean’s words.

She thought, “When the time comes, public opinion will shift, and Audrey will be the object of ridicule again.

“And as long as I seize the opportunity to enter the top three of the grade, I’m sure everyone will gradually forget my remarks this time.”

Mabel was in Class 10’s classroom.

After the IP addresses were exposed, she was the one who was uneasy

the most.

Her family was one of the relocated households, and they got an extra house all thanks to Audrey’s connections.

She had been around Audrey since high school loyally like Audrey’s lackey, and she was always jealous whenever she saw Audrey and Corbin walking side by side.

She didn’t dare speak ill of Audrey to Audrey’s face, but she did say a lot of bad things about Audrey anonymously on the forum.

She didn’t expect someone to expose their IP addresses.

She was terrified that Audrey would come after her after Audrey got back to class.

Yet after Audrey and Patrick went back, they didn’t talk to her at all. They simply tacitly chose to ignore her.

She looked at Audrey several times, and the latter simply looked down to read or did exercises, ignoring her the whole time.

Soon, it was Friday.

Since Audrey ranked sixth from the bottom of her grade on the last. exam, she was in the same classroom as a group of low–achieving students for the exam this time.

Sterling was a transfer student and never took a placement exam, so he was in the same classroom as Audrey.

Coincidentally, he sat behind her.

She took a bottle of milk out of her bag and handed it to him with a sweet smile, saying, “Sterling, this is milk from my grandma’s farm in the countryside. The grass, air, and water there have all passed the organic certification, and the milk is pollution–free, pure, and delicious!”

Sterling looked at the girl who had flattered him from time to time recently. His dark, cold eyes scanned her delicate and pretty face, and he parted his thin l*ps, saying flatly, “What is it? You want to pull the same prank again?”

Audrey was a bit awkward.

The second day after he entered Class 10, she handed him a bottle of milk in the morning, smiling and saying that it was her treat, as he was

new to the class.

He glanced at her and then took the milk.

He took a sip of milk and spit it out in the next second, because she had put nearly 300 grams of salt and essence in it.

“I promise. There’s nothing in the milk this time.”

Sterling squinted and used the tip of his tongue to lick his front teeth. “I hate milk.”

Audrey snorted, “I bet you’ll have at least one sip someday!”

Sterling glanced at her n*eckline, and his Adam’s apple rolled.

Audrey had goosebumps on her arms and thought, “Did he misunderstand something?”
