Noah slumped over his desk, thoroughly defeated.

My bad. I completely forgot I’m the one who sleeps through every class too.

Glaring at Isabella with deep frustration, he leaned in and muttered, “Hey, you seriously don’t want my backup?

“Fixing that tiny deficit on the Powell family’s books is child’s play for me.

“I can easily pull some strings to get you a massive investment.

“That way, you won’t have to take any more crap from the Bexleys.

“I bet your oldest brother ordered you to let Mia and her crew off the hook, right?”

He spoke with absolute confidence, adding, “Just tell me how you got that insane strength, and I’ll make this whole headache vanish.”

His tone carried a distinct, upper–class arrogance.

To a guy with his family background, a corporate bailout really was a walk in the park.

“No thanks.”

Isabella’s face remained entirely serene, her response short and sweet.

“Furthermore, keep your mouth shut. I’m going to sleep.”

At her blunt dismissal, Noah’s face twisted into absolute annoyance.

Unbelievable. Those are literally my exact lines!

While he was privately seething, Mia and her clique trudged into the classroom with incredibly dark expressions.

They locked eyes onto Isabella’s desk, gritted their teeth, and marched straight over to her.

Noah lazily raised his eyelids, a sharp glint in his eye.

Well, well. Looks like I’m getting a free show.

Across the room, Hannah’s eyes lit up with intense excitement as she balled her hands into tight fists, eagerly waiting to watch Isabella get utterly humiliated.

Knowing Mia’s explosive temper, Hannah was completely sure the girl would tear Isabella to absolute shreds with vicious insults.

Yet right as that cruel anticipation peaked, the unfolding scene caused the smug grin to freeze instantly on Hannah’s face.

“Isabella, we are truly sorry.”

Gritting their teeth, Mia and her friends gathered around Isabella’s desk, casting a terrified glance at Noah before hanging their heads in deep submission.

As their muffled voices faded, Isabella slowly raised her eyes and met theirs, asking flatly, “Is that it?”

Her expression remained entirely cold and detached.

Mia and her followers looked completely mortified, their faces burning with shame.

Mia in particular bit down on her lower lip so hard she nearly drew blood.

But left with absolutely no alternative, they followed their families‘ strict commands and forced out another apology, “Isabella, we are so sorry.”

Clenching their jaws under the stunned gazes of the entire classroom, the girls dropped right down onto their knees before her.

They had desperately wanted to pull Isabella out into a private hallway to offer a quiet apology.

But Isabella’s explicit terms required a full, public humiliation in front of the student body.

On top of that, with Isabella sitting right next to the terrifying Noah Wayne, they didn’t possess a shred of courage to ask him to move so she could step out.

Furthermore, the brutal scolding they received from their parents that morning was still ringing vividly in their ears.

Before leaving the house, their fathers had absolutely reamed them out.

“The second you step foot onto that campus, you treat Isabella with the utmost respect and humility!”

“Who the h*ll told you to pick a fight with her? She might have grown up in the backwoods, but she is the legitimate heiress of the Powell family!”

“She is Adrian’s own biological sister!”

“You idiots had to open your big mouths and make a stupid bet, and she caught you red-

“If you hadn’t explicitly promised to kneel, we could have swept this legal drama under the rug.”

“But now our hands are tied.”

“The Bexley Group might have major leverage over the Powells right now, but pushing them past their limit will only backfire on us.”

“You brought this disaster on yourselves, so you’re going to crawl over and beg her for forgiveness.”

“I don’t give a damn about your pride! If our joint venture with the Powell Group falls through because of this stunt, I will personally ruin you!”

Mia’s mind reeled as her father and brother’s furious warnings echoed non–stop.

When Isabella had dialed 911 yesterday, the emergency dispatchers had routed the official inquiry straight to her father’s personal phone.

Upon discovering the criminal investigation, her father and oldest brother had flown into an absolute rage.

If it weren’t for the catastrophic embarrassment of a high–society heiress getting hauled off to a federal detention cell, they would have happily left her to rot in jailand suffer to teach her a lesson.
