Five Years of Marriage to Mr. Bradford (by Koi Fish) novel Chapter 719

Chapter 719

In the end, Fabio couldn’t stop Rebecca and Hazel from calling the police.

Hazel dialed the number right there in the office.

The police arrived quickly, and the boys went back to class, leaving the bulletin board clear. By the time the officers finished collecting evidence and taking statements, the first class still hadn’t ended.

Fabio’s sharp gaze spoke volumes. If Hazel were in the ruming for a professional title promotion this year, her chances woul be all but ruined.

“Mr. Pearson, I’ll take Rebecca back to class now. Thank you for your time,” Hazel said, taking Rebecca’s arm.

Fabio didn’t say anything else. Once they left, he called the academic affairs office and asked them to contact Rebecca’s paren

Jethro scratched his head, recalling how she had been crying in front of Vance and the whole school not long ago.

That afternoon, Darren was indeed absent, and so was Vance. In fact, he had been missing all day.

Rebecca and Jenny went to the cafeteria for dinner, naturally flanked by the group of boys. Once they finished eating, the two girls prepared to head over to the showers.

At this point in time, the school campus hadn’t been expanded yet. The dorm bathrooms were still the old communal style with individual curtained stalls.

The two girls carried their shower supplies, then turned around to see the boys still following. Rebecca was amused. “You’re going to follow us into the shower, too?”
