Chapter 292
What a massive turn of events!
They had initially been under the impression Wynona was the victim, but it now appeared to them that it was not the case. A few girls felt pity for Wynona when she had told them that she was bullied and beaten by a newcomer the other day, but now they felt she had brought it on herself after learning the truth.
Since she had the nerves to do something like that, it went without saying that she could make up the whole thing about this newcomer.
All colors were washed from Wynona’s face, and she stumbled a few steps back. The people around her were no longer looking at her sympathetically. Instead, they were pointing fingers at her, showering her with all sorts of criticisms. “Maisie, how… How could you!?” she shouted hysterically, her voice laced thick with sobs.“ How could you do this to me!?”
“How about you?” Maisie asked in return, her face stern, “How could you do this to me? I’ve forgiven you again and again, but look at yourself. You’re the one who brought this upon yourself.
“Didn’t I tell you before? One must face the consequences for their own deeds. Since you have the guts to do it, then you need to have the guts to admit it. Besides, who gave you the right to defame me in front of so many people?” If she let her go again this time, how was she going to shake off that baseless “infamy” of hers?
This was something Wynona did not expect. She did not think that Maisie would expose her in front of everyone. None of the onlookers came forward to speak for her, and no one even showed sympathy for her. Unable to accept it, she squatted down and cried. Maisie did not look at her anymore and walked past her. When she went near Raven, she stopped and said with a smile, “I thought we could become friends. I also told you I couldn’t tell because I had my own reasons, yet you still chose to believe them.”
After Maisie finished speaking, she left without turning her head.
Raven’s shoulders quivered, and her eyes turned red around the rims. Fransisco was standing not far away, so he had seen everything that had transpired just now. H e had not even stepped forward when Maisie was under attack, so he did not have the guts to face her right now.
He loosened his knuckles slowly, turned around, and disappeared into the crowd.
