Chapter 141
Today at Westbrook High School, things were anything but calm.
Police officers wereing and going, scaring the students into staying inside their ssrooms, too
afraid to venture out.
In ss Z, everyone was abuzz about the incident
“What’s happening? Why are all the police here?”
“I went and asked.”
The student who had gone to gather the gossip said excitedly, “It seems to be about Aaron from
ss F. He’s been arrested for extortion. The amount involved is quiterge, and he might be
facing many years in prison.”
Everyone here was still a student. While minor mischief wasmon, it was the first time they’d
heard of someone they knew being taken into police custody. They were all shocked
“How could Aaron do something like that? Who did he try to extort money from?”
“Flora, could youe out here a moment?”
Just then, a female voice called from the doorway, and Carina stood there, her expression frosty,
Flora had been sitting in the back row helping Dane and the others grade their work. When she
looked up and saw Carina, she raised an eyebrow
Without moving, she leaned back in her chair, her right hand holding a pen resting on the desk, idly
tapping away, her expression indifferent.
Carina walked in herself.
“Aaron is our ssmate, and you two used to date. How could you scheme against him and send
him to jail? Canina seemed genuinely furious, her eyes red with anger.
Her indignant voice clearly resonated throughout ss Z
All the students in ss 2 looked incredulously at Flora. Was she…the reason Aaron was sent to
jail?
Flora’s hand, holding the pen, paused. It no longer tapped the tabletop with the cap. In the face of
Carina’s anger and questioning, she remained nonchnt. It’s as if Carina was nothing but a joke to
her.
After getting what she wanted, Carina faked a broken heart, hid her face and just walked out.
“Flora, did you really call the police on Aaron? Dane swallowed nervously before asking
When Flora nodded, his expression turned even more horrified.
“Dane, aren’t you afraid shell send you to jail too?” May’s voice wasced with sarcasm,
Everyone fell silent. They all nced at Flora, their gazesplex
Flora’s actions gave them the creeps. What kind of deep hatred does one need to have to send a
high school senior to jail?
After Carina’s deliberate spreading of the story, the whole school knew about Aaron’s arrest and
Flora’s involvement
-1 cant believe that Flora, who’s usually so quiet, could be so vicious. She used to love Aaron, and
now she’s the reason he’s in jail,”
“That’s why they say hell hath no fury like a woman ed. It seems Flora did it because Aaron
didn’t like her back, and out of spite, she framed him.”
“Shh…Flora’s here.”

As Flora strolled down the hallway carrying a kettle, with Kaylee at her side, the bunch of students
who had been chattering away shut up real quick when they saw hering.
“People like her are just backstabbers. No matter how well they study, they’re just society’s trash!
We’re seriously unlucky to be in the
her
same school
Flora never cared about what others said. Facing the diverse gazes, she remained indifferent
However, Kaylee was quivering with anger. Hearing the girl’s words, she roared, “If Aaron didn’t do
anything wrong, thew is just and will prove his innocence. But if he didmit crimes, it’s
everyone’s responsibility to ensure he faces justice. You know nothing and yet stand here on your
high moral ground, using the vilest words to describe a girl. Is this your so–called kindness and
justice?”
She was likely shaking with anger, her voice trembling, with several words nearly breaking.
Flora turned to look at her, genuinely surprised.
Kaylee was usually so timid. She hardly ever spoke up about anything, yet now Kaylee was
defending her so fiercely in front of so many people.
