Catherine’s admission was direct, and not only Isabe but even Beatrice herself was stunned.


    Once Beatrice realized what had happened, she felt secretly delighted. She had thought that Catherine


    was a powerful figure, but it turned out Catherine was just a paper tiger.


    If it were Beatrice, she would never say it out loud. In this world, everyone likes to sympathize with the


    weak. Telling the truth wasn’t necessarily a good thing to do.


    Beatrice sniffled and held Isabe’s hand, knowing that Isabe would definitely help her. “Be, I


    studied so hard to get into Styre University. If I’m forced to drop out, my life will be ruined!”


    Isabe understood what Beatrice meant and sympathized with her plight. She knew how difficult it was


    to get into Styre University. During Isabe’s three years of high school, she didn’t even take a single


    weekend off, all for the sake of sessfully getting into Styre University.


    Earlier, Isabe was afraid of falsely using Catherine, not daring to speak up. But now that


    Catherine had admitted it herself, she naturally had to stand up for Beatrice.


    To avoid conflict, Isabe tried to maintain a friendly attitude toward Catherine. “Catherine, we’re


    ssmates and roommates. That’s fate. I know Beatrice was in the wrong, but expulsion is a bit too


    severe. How about we find a different form of punishment, like having Beatrice sincerely apologize to


    you?”


    Catherine nced at Isabe. Even though Catherine hadn’t done anything, Isabe felt an immense


    sense of shame. Isabe silently lowered her head, not daring to meet Catherine’s eyes. Then, she


    discreetly tugged on Amelia’s arm, hoping Amelia would speak up.


    Amelia had a better rtionship with Catherine than Isabe did, so maybe Catherine would listen to


    her.


    Although Amelia also thought that Catherine’s demands were a bit excessive, her principle had always


    been “Do not advise others on what they haven’t experienced themselves.” She remained silent and


    chose to be a bystander, not getting involved.


    Sensing Amelia’s indifferent attitude, Isabe had no choice but to continue persuading Catherine.


    “Catherine, we’re ssmates after all.


    If you’re not satisfied with an apology, you can make other requests.”


    Isabe, on the surface, was known for her kindness, but to put it bluntly, she couldn’t distinguish right


    from wrong. She tended to believe whatever people said, but deep down, she wasn’t a bad person.


    “Isabe, did Beatrice tell you why her parents came to school today?”


    Isabe was taken aback and looked at Catherine in surprise. “You mean Beatrice’s parents came to


    school?”


    “Humph.” Catherine sneered. “It seems that Beatrice has been keeping a lot from you. Her parents


    came to school today not only to demand a public apology from me but also to persuade the director to


    expel me.”


    If it weren’t for Catherine having a more powerful background, she would be the one facing expulsion


    today, not Beatrice.


    Isabe was shocked. Beatrice indeed hadn’t mentioned this to her. Beatrice only said that Catherine’s


    apology wasn’t sincere and that she had brought this matter to the attention of the president. She also


    mentioned that Catherine had a capable boyfriend who forced her to drop out and made her parents


    beg for mercy.


    However, Beatrice didn’t mention that she had asked her parents toe to school first to teach


    Catherine a lesson and force Catherine to drop out.


    Amelia, upon hearing what Catherine said, secretly felt relieved that she hadn’t interfered. Otherwise,


    she would have been embarrassed now.


    Facing Beatrice’s hypocritical behavior, Amelia couldn’t help butment in a sarcastic tone, “I thought


    she was so pitiful, but it turns out she’s only pitiful because her background isn’t powerful enough! The


    first thing she did after making a mistake was ask her parents for help. How childish! And the most


    embarrassing part is that her parents are not powerful enough, so she ended up begging for mercy!”


    Although Amelia didn’t mention any names, there were only four people in the room. Who else could


    she be referring to?


    Beatrice couldn’t sit still anymore. She stood up abruptly, ring at Amelia and scolding her loudly.


    “Amelia, what the hell is wrong with you? Why do you have to nder me like this? I didn’t offend you.


    Why are you mocking me?”


    “Hmph!” Amelia coldly snorted in disdain. “Then why did you ask me for help? Just a moment ago, you


    sat there crying, begging us to intercede with Catherine on your behalf. I didn’t expect that you were


    the real culprit!”


    Beatrice, despite her arrogance, was left speechless. Amelia’s retorts made her face turn red. She


    decided not to argue with Amelia. Instead, she focused her gaze on Catherine.


    “Catherine, how do you n to resolve this matter? State your conditions, and I will agree to them. But


    you have to guarantee that I won’t be expelled, and that my grandfather won’t find out about this.”


    Catherine sat there, her eyes slightly raised, calmly assessing Beatrice. She couldn’t understand what


    was wrong with Beatrice. How could Beatrice be so foolish?


    At this point, Beatrice still maintained her arrogant attitude, indicating that she hadn’t learned her


    lesson yet. Catherine couldn’t be bothered to argue with her. “You’re not even worthy of negotiating


    with me.”


    After saying that, Catherine stood up and pushed the chair to its original position. She had thought


    there would be an interesting twist of events, but it turned out that none of them were worth her time.


    Seeing that Catherine didn’t fall for her tactics and even ignored her, Beatrice became desperate and


    started crying again.

    “Catherine, why are you so heartless? What can make you satisfied? My death?”


    Catherine opened the window, revealing her beautiful face, her gaze calmly fixed on Beatrice.


    “If you want to kill yourself, go somewhere else. Don’t disturb our sleep.”


    She spoke in the calmest tone, uttering the harshest words.


    Someone like Beatrice would never actuallymit suicide. At most, she would use it as a means to


    threaten others and achieve her goals.


    Even if Beatrice did try to kill herself, Catherine wasn’t afraid. Catherine was naturally cold-hearted, and


    even her own family couldn’t sway her, let alone a stranger like Beatrice who had framed her.


    Seeing that Catherine remained unmoved, Beatrice became truly desperate. Her father had made it


    clear that if this matter reached Conor’s ears, he would disown her and kick her out of the house.


    In her panic, Beatrice thought of someone who might be able to help her ovee this difficult


    situation.
