The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday novel Chapter 340

Freya's patience had worn thin when facing another round of persuasion from the school's guidance counselor. She responded coldly, "Look, if I were involved in a fight, then by all means, let the principal call the cops on me. But if this is all about the school's graduation rates, I'm sorry, but that's the school's problem. Why should I bear the consequences?"

"You... you..." Before Sampson could finish, Freya had ended the call.

In her view, the call was pointless from the start. Kieran had probably intimidated the principal, or perhaps Kieran had ordered the principal to deal with her in case it would upset Eloise.

That was nothing new to Freya. She had seen it all before. Especially since Ronan had been away for several days dealing with business at the W Group, the principal probably felt no one would stand up for Freya now that Kieran had dumped her.

At that moment, Luna's call came through. Freya answered, only to hear an anxious voice on the other end. "Freya, did you see our school's group chat? You have to look!"

Freya checked her phone and found it bombarded with hundreds of unread messages from various group chats and a flood of friend requests, all packed with insults.

Some called her a tramp. Others accused her of playing both sides. And some claimed she used her woes to seduce men.

Friend requests and insults came in droves.

The students had even shared a video in the chat — a surveillance clip from the library showing Freya grabbing Jenny, though it was blurred and hard to see clearly.

Student 1: [I was in the library yesterday. I saw Freya start a fight with my own eyes!]

Being expelled would be the least of her worries. She might end up at the police station.

Freya's gaze darkened. She lived by a simple rule, “Don't start none and won't be none.” But they had chosen to come at her with such tactics, trying to ensure she couldn't recover.

Fine. Freya had hoped to graduate without making waves, so she hadn't confronted Jenny the day before. But since they wanted to escalate things, they couldn't blame her for what came next.
