Chapter 13


    Agnes never fancied high–cor shirts, and Beatrice knew this well. Today she felt weird somehow,


    and it turned out to be a bombshell discovery.


    Beatrice stepped up and yanked down Agnes‘ cor, “Agnes, I’m gonna tell Dad about you messing


    around with some dude! You’ve got a hickey, but you broke up with Elton, so it must have been the guy


    who dropped you off today!”


    Beatrice looked at her with scorn, “Agnes, I never thought you’d be such a floozy. Bet you stabbed


    Elton in the back, and that’s why he dumped you, right?”


    “Beatrice, zip it.”


    “I hit the nail on the head, didn’t I? If you want me to keep mum, hand me the invite and tell Dad


    yourself that you don’t wanna go. Or else, Dad will hear it from me, as well as Elton and his folks.”


    Agnes handed over the invite, not because she was scared of Beatrice’s threat, but because she was


    fed up with hearing Elton’s name.


    After Beatrice took the invite and left with a smug grin, Agnes felt like the world was finally quiet.


    The next day, Agnes got up early skipped breakfast, and headed back to school with her luggage.


    Agnes was a junior journalism major at Lakeside College.


    Just as she entered the school gate, she received a distress message from her roommate, Kerri. The 5


    Bitches had trapped her in the medicalb.


    Upon seeing the message, Agnes immediately tossed her suitcase and bolted towards theb


    building.


    Agnes was in a hurry because she knew this was serious. She had done research on bullying at


    school, and these five mean girls were the main perps. They had formed a group called the Ice Cream


    Club and 90% of the bullying incidents at Lakeside College were rted to this group.


    All the violence was caused by a guy, Ryder Whitfield, a hotshot and a medical student at Lakeside


    College. Some said a pretty woman was a ticking time bomb, but a good–looking guy could stir up just


    as much trouble.


    Ryder was a case in point. He was a straight–A student, attractive, and had a lot of female admirers at


    school. Because he was icy and aloof, his fans nicknamed him Prince Frost and formed a group called


    the Ice Cream Club. The five ringleaders called themselves Ice Cream Princesses, but everyone else


    knew them as the 5 Bitches.


    They ruled the school with an iron fist, picking on any girl who had contact with Ryder. Any girl who had


    written him a love letter, given him a gift, or even talked to him a few times would be targeted.


    Agnes remembered when she was working on a news project, a girl had her hair chopped off by the 5


    Bitches for giving Ryder a love letter. They forced her to strip and posted the photos on the school


    forum. The girl couldn’t take the humiliation and almostmitted suicide.


    Although this caused a huge stir, the school only issued severe warnings to the girls involved.


    This was mainly because the ringleader, Cecile Higgins, was the mayor’s daughter, and the other girls

    also came from wealthy families.


    Faced with money and power, the principal chose to turn a blind eye.
