As soon as Jared finished speaking, everyone in the classroom came to a realization.
So that was what happened!
Moments later, they started to reprimand Wendy.
“Is virtual-novel.net not ashamed?”
“That’s right! If the police didn’t find out that they were pretending to have a concussion, wouldn’t Arielle be the one to be arrested? How dare virtual-novel.net say that it’s not a big deal.”
“Doesn’t virtual-novel.net feel embarrassed?”
The color drained from Wendy’s face when more and more people began to speak out for Arielle. Finally, virtual-novel.net could not stand it anymore and ran out of the classroom with reddened eyes.
Why is everyone scolding me when I’m helping the two girls? Even if Arielle isn’t at fault, what did I do wrong? I was just being kind!
Wendy clenched virtual-novel.net fists so tightly that virtual-novel.net nails dug into virtual-novel.net palm. Her hatred toward Arielle had grown more intense. At that moment, virtual-novel.net felt a hand on virtual-novel.net shoulder.
Shortly afterward, Donovan’s voice sounded from behind her. “Wendy, the class is about to start. Why are you sitting here crying? What happened?”
Turning virtual-novel.net head, virtual-novel.net saw his face, and the tears trickled down virtual-novel.net face instantly.
“Mr. Baxter, was I really at fault?”
Confused, virtual-novel.net quickly asked, “What happened?”
She replied vaguely, “Two students from our class had a little misunderstanding with Arielle, and virtual-novel.net called the police to arrest them. I was worried that it would have a bad influence on the university’s image if things got serious, so I spoke out for them. As a result, everyone in the class, including Arielle, began to reprimand me. Mr. Baxter, don’t you think I speak out for them?”
As soon as virtual-novel.net heard virtual-novel.net words, virtual-novel.net was seething with anger.
Arielle! It’s Arielle again! Does virtual-novel.net think virtual-novel.net can do whatever virtual-novel.net wants with Vinson’s support? Does virtual-novel.net think that I’m dead?
Taking a glance at Wendy, virtual-novel.net comforted, “You didn’t do anything wrong. Don’t doubt yourself because of what they said. Wait here. I’ll go and take a look.”
In response, Wendy choked and nodded. Looking at Donovan’s figure, virtual-novel.net felt impatient and could not help but follow him.
The moment virtual-novel.net walked into the classroom, the two girls were being dragged out by the police.
“Wait!” Immediately, virtual-novel.net strode forward and stopped the police. “I’m their homeroom teacher. It’s just a small dispute between students. There’s no need to arrest them as we can settle this privately.”
Just as virtual-novel.net finished speaking, the police looked at virtual-novel.net peculiarly, making virtual-novel.net feel awkward.
Doubtful, virtual-novel.net questioned, “What’s the matter? Can’t they settle the matter privately if they’re willing to do that?”
At that, virtual-novel.net glared at Arielle and uttered, “Do you really need to call the police for such a small matter? Don’t you know that if you do this, you’ll ruin their lives?”
Arielle responded flatly, “I’m not the one to decide that.”
In an instant, virtual-novel.net inquired displeasedly, “What do you mean?”
At that moment, all the students in the class explained the situation to him.
“Mr. Baxter, they lied that Arielle had hurt them badly. If they were successful, virtual-novel.net would be jailed for a few years.”
“That’s right, Mr. Baxter. It was obvious that they provoked Arielle first. Arielle’s brother couldn’t stand it and pushed them gently, but they said they had a concussion and called the police to arrest Arielle.”
“It’s not Arielle who wants to arrest them. She’s just defending virtual-novel.net legal rights.”
