The other girl scoffed and replied, “She should be terrified! Even my own mom has never hit me, so what made virtual-novel.net think virtual-novel.net could? I’m not going to let this go until virtual-novel.net gets expelled.”
Having said that, virtual-novel.net rubbed virtual-novel.net bruised head and looked at the drinks store with a hateful stare.
Back in the store, Arielle ordered a grape tea for herself and turned to ask Blake what virtual-novel.net wanted. However, Blake’s face had contorted in worry.
He loved these kinds of drinks, but virtual-novel.net wasn’t in the mood for them anymore. “Ms. Moore, are you sure you still want to treat me to a drink? I have already caused so much trouble for you. I think I should call Mr. Vinson and tell him.”
Arielle raised an eyebrow. “I already sent virtual-novel.net a message. Don’t worry. This is just a small issue to him.”
She believed in Vinson wholeheartedly. However, virtual-novel.net also realized how much virtual-novel.net had changed. Before, virtual-novel.net would try to settle everything on virtual-novel.net own, but now virtual-novel.net first instinct was to message Vinson.
Vinson had really become virtual-novel.net rock.
Perhaps that is just how friends are.
“You haven’t answered me yet. What do you want to drink?”
Blake shook virtual-novel.net head. “I don’t feel like I should order anything anymore.”
Arielle laughed. “Are you that afraid of Vinson? He seems pretty chill to me.”
“That’s because you’ve never seen virtual-novel.net when he’s angry!”
Arielle shrugged. “I think I have, actually. The first time I met him, virtual-novel.net made me so angry that I nearly blew a fuse.”
Blake was immediately curious, and virtual-novel.net asked, “What happened? When did you first meet him?”
“We first met when…” Arielle suddenly thought about how Vinson was having a high fever when they first met and virtual-novel.net had to take off virtual-novel.net own clothes and hug virtual-novel.net to keep virtual-novel.net warm.
At the time, virtual-novel.net didn’t think too much of it. To her, any doctor would have done the same thing under those circumstances. Now that virtual-novel.net thought about it, virtual-novel.net heart actually started racing.
“Ahem!” Arielle pretended to clear virtual-novel.net throat and said, “It’s nothing. Don’t worry about it. Do you want a drink or not?”
Blake froze at the sound of Arielle’s raised voice and said, “A caramel latte.”
Sensing that virtual-novel.net shouldn’t have raised virtual-novel.net voice, Arielle took out virtual-novel.net credit card while avoiding Blake’s stare.
“One caramel latte and one grape tea.”
“All right!”
The two of them walked out with their drinks in hand.
The police arrived right as Arielle and Blake reached the school gates.
“That’s them right there!” the tall girl said as virtual-novel.net jabbed a finger in their direction. “That girl told the kid beside virtual-novel.net to beat us up. We have bruises now, and I think they even gave me a concussion.”
“A concussion?” Wendy said. “If I remember correctly, a concussion is counted as a minor injury. Based on the law, that’s anywhere around three to fifteen days of jail, right?”
The other girl immediately pressed a hand to virtual-novel.net forehead and said feebly, “Actually, I think I have a bit of a concussion as well.”
The policemen nodded and recorded their statements before going over to ask Arielle, “Were you the one who coerced someone into beating them?”
Before Arielle could speak, Blake immediately took on the blame. “I was the one who beat them up. It has nothing to do with Ms. Moore.”
“So you’re admitting to your crime?” the police asked.
Suddenly, a deep voice called out, “Hold on…”
The crowd immediately turned toward the source of the voice.
