Bianca watched his disappearing figure, her eyes filled with resentment. She raised her hand to wipe away her tears, trying to muster the courage to stand. But the sharp pain in her foot caused her to sink back to the ground again.
Looking at her swollen ankle, she felt a strange mix of helplessness and anger wash over her.
As despair set in, a hand reached out to her, and a gentle voice asked, âDo you need help?â
In that moment, hope flickered within her. Bianca lifted her gaze to the girl, but her expression darkened as realization hit her. It was Emma, Justinâs childhood friend, the belle of Milton School.
Bianca had envied Emma before, wondering what made her so special, especially when people referred to her as âthe belleâ.
Her title as Justinâs childhood friend felt like a painful reminder.
Bianca recalled how often Emma visited Class 1, sweetly calling Justin over and over, which only fueled her irritation. However, when she saw Justin had no interest in Emma, Bianca felt a sense of relief and learned to ignore Emmaâs presence.
It didnât matter if Emma was his childhood friend or the belle. To Justin, Emma was still nothing. As negative rumors began to swirl around Emma, Biancaâs disdain only grew stronger.
Yet today, she was completely surprised that Emma, in her moment of need, would offer her help. A whirlwind of conflicting feelings surged inside her.
Reluctant to accept Emmaâs aid, she knew there was no one else who would help her.
As she looked at the hand still reaching toward her, she battled internally for what felt like forever before finally stretching out her own hand to rest in Emmaâs palm.
Emma smiled gently, âIâll help you to the infirmary.â With that, she helped Bianca to her feet.
From a distance, Natalie and Mia rushed over to offer their support. They originally had no intention of coming. After all, it didnât matter to them as long as they achieved their goal.
But Emma said that Bianca was hurt because of them, and she felt guilty. They felt Emmaâs kindness became her weakness.
Natalie and Mia didnât understand Emmaâs true motives; she just wanted to look good in front of others.
After quickly transporting Bianca to the infirmary for some bandaging, they brought her back to class. Upon entering Class 1, they unexpectedly ran into Justin. Emmaâs eyes lit up as she called out, âJustin.â
Hearing that made Bianca feel a chill run down her spine. Even though Emma had just helped her, the way she called out to Justin made her uncomfortable.
Bianca quickly said, âJustin, my foot is injured. Would you be so kind as to help me inside?â
Turning to Emma, she added with a sweet smile, âThank you so much, Emma, but since Justin is here, it would be lovely to have his support.â
Justin frowned slightly, glancing at her injured foot, hesitating for a moment. âJustin, will you help me?â Bianca looked at him, innocent and a bit needy.
Justin cast a brief glance toward the classroom before reluctantly raising his arm, signaling for Bianca to lean against him.

Chapter 152 Seeing this, Biancaâs heart soared, but she hid her joy. She turned to Emma with a bright smile and said, âThank help today, Emmaâ With that, she leaned against Justin.
for Emma perceived that smile as nothing but mockery, watching Bianca bask in her victory and wishing she could tear Biancal apart in her anger.
But this was a public place; she had to keep her cool. Even though she disliked Bianca, she couldnât show it. Once her emotions settled, she turned to Justin in a calm tone and said, âPlease take care of Bianca, Justin.â
Bianca rolled her eyes at Emmaâs facade. To anyone else, it would seem like Justin was just doing Emma a favor by helping Bianca.
Emmaâs words struck her as particularly absurd. If it werenât for Emmaâs earlier help, Bianca would have found the whole situation much more tolerable.
âWe should go.â Justin said to Bianca. Emma felt a bit awkward. As she watched the two head into the classroom, a spark of anger flickered in her eyes, barely contained.
As Bianca and Justin entered, their classmates raised their eyebrows in surprise at the sight. However, seeing her limping quickly overshadowed their initial surprise.
Even though Justin often seemed aloof and unapproachable, deep down, he had a kind heart willing to help.
At that moment, Bianca settled into her seat, surrounded by concerned voices.
âBianca, is your foot alright?â
âItâs nothing serious.â
âBianca, can you still throw the baton with that injury?â
Hearing this triggered alarm bells in Biancaâs mind; she had nearly forgotten about her commitment.
She thought, âWith my injury, what will happen to my ability to throw the baton? After all the effort I had put into preparing, would it all just fade away?â
The thought ignited her anger towards Thorne; if only her family had been able to stand up against the Ludwig family, she would make sure Thorne paid for what he did.
âBianca, the student union members are here.â
The words snapped Bianca back to reality. âHas news of her injury spread so quickly? Their visit can only mean they knew about her situation.â
As she thought about this, Elena walked in first, flanked by two student union leaders. Spotting Elena sent panic racing through Bianca; she had worked so hard for the Winter Sports Event, and giving up was not an option.
Elena approached her desk and looked at her injured foot with a worried frown. Bianca said, âElena, although Iâm injured, itâs fine. I can still hold the baton and lead, itâs no big deal.â
The head of the etiquette department said, âBianca, I know youâre hurt, but you seriously canât throw the baton. Itâs not a joke.â
Bianca quickly replied, âI can still do it. Please trust me.â
âItâs not that we doubt you, but the facts are clear. Youâve been injured.â
2/3 16:21 Fri, 14 Feb M G Chapter 152 The head of the academic department said, âBianca, I really hope you understand that you canât risk further injury, We offered you a chance before, and you didnât take it.
âPlus, your injury complicates our plans. Weâve decided not to hold this against you, so consider yourself lucky.â
Hearing those words made Biancaâs heart sink. âIs there really no chance left for me?â She glanced at Elena beside her, hoping she would not dismiss her.
