Chapter 353
‘Abigail has to kneel and apologize?‘ the eximed inwardly.
All the students stared at her in disbelief. ‘But she’s Abigail! From Conrad University, the most distinguished family, stunningly beautiful, and her Instagram includes all the top–tier royalty in Crefan! How could she do something like this?‘
Although she always appeared friendly and approachable in front of her ssmates, she was revered and untouchable.
Someone like her would never kneel to apologize.
“Miss Erickson, someone like you who made such a huge mistake should certainly apologize with the utmost sincerity, right?” Lea said with a smile, her face full of genuine praise.
“Exactly, Miss Erickson, I’m sure you would never try to shirk responsibility,” Shannon chimed in with encouragement.
Steve added, “You forced others to kneel and apologize, and now that it’s your turn, you refuse to do it? Could it be that you’re doing this just because your father is a high–ranking official? You shouldn’t be the same as Calvin, right?”
This provoked some students to discuss among themselves.
“Yeah, before this, they forced Lea to kneel and apologize.”
“Lea didn’t actually do anything wrong.”
“It’s Calvin who should be apologizing.”
The students, all brilliant and proud, didn’t care much about Abigail’s background.
The collective sentiment was clear.
Those who had previously supported her now remained silent, and even the few who still supported her felt uneasy but dared not speak up.
“Lea, if Abigail kneels to apologize to you, would you dare to ept it?” Leona stepped forward, standing protectively in front of Abigail. She red at Lea with angry, red eyes, showing a hint of madness.
Lea narrowed her eyes slightly. “This fake heiress is really losing control. She’s not considering the consequences at all,‘ she wondered.
Lea’s gaze shifted, her smile growing more profound. “Of course, I dare to ept it.”
Then she pouted slightly, appearing aggrieved. “What does Miss Erickson’s apology have to do with me and Calvin? Not only did you force me to apologize, but you also used me of ndering and threatening me withwyers. I’m from Vaporleon City, and I’m unfamiliar with Iverton. But you’ve

treated us insignificant people with such disregard. You don’t even show us the most basic respect.”
Shannon turned to look at Lea in shock.
The Lea she knew was fierce and invincible, but this was a side she had never seen before. ‘Lea, you’ve changed.
Steve was momentarily stunned. ‘Are women this unpredictable? It’s frightening.‘
“Abigail, you should apologize to Lea.”
“You went a bit too far this time, and you need to apologize.”
“Apologize now.”
“Quick, apologize.”
The students stepped forward to demand justice.
They all remembered clearly how Abigail and her group had treated Lea.
They had been swayed by their words and joined in the attack, but the reality was they had misunderstood everything.
What Lea had done was actually quite admirable in their eyes.
Seeing Lea’s aggrieved expression, her delicate and stunning face only adding to the effect, the students couldn’t take it.
Abigail had to apologize.
Shannon and Steve were both stunned.
This was how Abigail had previously been treated, and it was clearly effective.
No wonder Abigail and her group liked to use this tactic.
“Lea, I’m sorry,” someone said, kneeling in front of Lea.
The entire room fell silent, with everyone staring in disbelief at the person kneeling before Lea.
‘Are our eyes deceiving us? How did Abigail turn into Leona?‘ they thought.
Lea narrowed her eyes, then nced at Shannon before looking back at the kneeling figure.
Leona met her gaze with a face full of hatred and reluctance.
No matter what it took, she was determined to protect Abigail and get her help. Once she had fully taken control of the Moore family, she would reim everything lost today, and then some.
“Lea, I…” Leona started to speak, but Lea cut her off sharply, not giving her a chance to continue.

Leona, what are you doing?
Tm… I’m apologizing on behalf of Abigail…”
“Apologizing?” Lea interrupted, her tone filled with disbelief.
“This is ridiculous,” Steve said sternly. “This is a matter between Miss Erickson and Lea. What does it have to do with you? You’re just her sidekick, aren’t you?”
“Looks like you’re not justcking in knowledge. You might need to see a psychiatrist,” he added, pointing to his head with a sharp expression.
At Steve’s words, the students realized what was going on, their looks of analysis directed at Abigail and her group.
So, this was the real rtionship among these so–called best friends.
They had always thought these girls were arrogant and unreasonable, but Abigail had always seemed to be the peacemaker, the kind and virtuous one.
Now it was clear…
Their gazes turned to expressions of disgust and disdain.
Abigail clenched her fists, making a cracking sound, her whole body nearly exploding with anger.
She had never endured such contempt.
No one dared to disrespect her, and no one disliked her.
These guys… she fumed.
“Miss Erickson,” Shannon stood up, walking toward her step by step. Her clear, piercing eyes shone with intense light. “Are you not going to apologize to Lea? You forced her to kneel before, and now that it’s your turn, you refuse? Is this your usual behavior?”
Today, Shannon was determined to make Abigail apologize to Lea, even if the Erickson family was a top–tier prestigious family with immense power.
They had spared no effort in trying to destroy Lea, and Lea shouldn’t be treated this
Shannon was determined to see that Lea’s grievance was addressed.
“Abigail, apologize,” Shannonmanded firmly.
way.
Abigail, facing Shannon, was taken aback by the powerful aura emanating from her. Her body trembled slightly.
All the students watched her in silence, their sense of justice and youth creating an invisible but formidable pressure around her.

Chapter 353
Abigail turned her gaze to Lea.
Lea was looking back at her as well.
Though Lea was seated, she seemed to tower above Abigail, who appeared as a lump of mud beneath her.
No. This can’t be happening. I should be the one on top. I should be… Abigail’s chest heaved with anger, her whole body trembling uncontrobly.
Lea was growing impatient, her brows knitting together. “Abigail? Hmm?”
Abigail felt as if Lea’s gaze was a force trying to force her to the ground.
She opened her mouth but found herself as helpless as a fish out of water.
The students stared in wide–eyed anticipation.
She was about to apologize. This was the most incredible thing they had seen since starting school.
Thud!
Abigail’s eyes rolled back, and she copsed to the floor.
“Abigail!” her group of friends rushed to her side.
“Lea, are you trying to kill Abigail?” Leona screamed in a frenzy.
The surrounding crowd became restless.
While they did want Abigail to apologize to Lea, this was too much. Abigail had fainted, and it seemed excessive.
Lea stood up and walked over, looking down at the unconscious Abigail with a cold smile, as if she had anticipated this oue.
“Tsk, Miss Erickson is truly the epitome of a highborndy. She’d rather faint than apologize. Such pride.”
The crowd fell silent, their eyes shifting back to Abigail, who was now being helped by Leona and her friends. Abigail’s face was pale and contorted with pain.
‘Is she pretending to faint to avoid apologizing? Could it be that the lofty Miss Erickson is this shameless?‘ wondered they. Copyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.
Everyone present was stunned.
