Chapter 54

As class time drew near, the classroom quieted down.

Noreen, having composed herself, walked in. She was t looked up at once, their gares snapping to her

up for class the very best day after everything happened, completely ignoring at the rumors flying around

No one expected Noreen to show sp

Edath was a bit surprised, too. When this happened to her in the previous life, she had locked herself in her room for dozens of days, not wanting to go anywhere because she didn’t want to face the strange looks from everyone around her.

Even though she didn’t like Noreen, she had to admit that Noreen was braver than she ever was

Halle was the first to stand up. She hurried over and hugged Noreen’s arm. She said, “floren, are you okay! I’m really sorry about what happene yesterday. After class, let’s go shopping, okay! You can get whatever you want my treat.

“just want to see you happy”

Everyone in the class was secretly impressed by Halle. They thought, ‘No wonder Hallie is the campus belle she’s pist too kind. Noreen must have saved the galaxy in her previous life to have a friend like Hallie

But Noreen suddenly shook Hallie off She shot Hallie a furious glare and snapped, “Don’t pretend to be my friend. I don’t have disgusting friends like you. Hallie, from now on, we’re not friends anymore.”

Hallie’s eyes went wide in disbelief, bears rolling down her cheeks. She choked out, “Noreen, how could you do this to me?

“Sure, what happened last night was my cousin’s fault, but if you hadn’t asked him to go to the movies, making him think you liked him, he never would’ve crossed the line like that”

Noreen exploded, “Are you freaking kidding me? When did I ever ask your cousin to the movies? Don’t you dare try to pin this on me.”

Halle didn’t say a word, just covered her face and cried.

She was the campus belle–gorgeous as ever–and when she cried like that, looking all delicate and pitiful, a bunch of guys in the class who had a crush on her instantly felt their hearts ache for her.

One of Hallie’s simps quickly handed her a tissue and shot Noreena glare. He snapped, “You were the one who messed up–how can you turn around and blame Hallefor?”

Another guy jumped in. “Halle was being so nice, trying to comfort you, and you still want to cut her off? Seriously, you don’t know what’s good for you.”

A third one snapped, “Hallio already apologized–just what else do you want from her?”

Noreen was about to lose it. She always thought Hallie was so fragile, so she used to stand up for her against Edith. But now, for the first time, she realized just how powerful Hallie’s tears could be.

Just cry a little, and suddenly right and wrong were flipped, and Hallie could throw dirt on anyone she wanted.

Noreen glanced around the classroom. Everyone was just silently watching the show–nobody was on her side. She remember defend Hallic, she had offended all the girls in the class.

And as for the guys in class, at least two–thirds of them were Hallie’s fanboys. They certainly would take Hallie’s side.

when she used to

Noreen almost wanted to laugh at the irony of it all. She’d stuck her neck out for Hale, and in the end, it was because of Hallie that she ended up like this. She thought, ‘Maybe coming to school today really was a mistake”

Just then, Edith glanced up indifferently and said, “The real victim isn’t even crying. So why are you, the one who started all this, putting on a show?“,

As soon as she spoke, the class went dead silent. They didn’t know why, but when Edith spoke up, nobody dared to offer a wond

Edith said, “Let me tell you a story. A sheep goes out to graze and gets caught by a wolf for lunch, are dying, thờ thong ach replies, “You were right in front of me who else would I eat?”

“Word spreads among the flock, and from then on, whenever a sheep gets eaten, the others just say, “Well, you shouldn’t have wandered i woll Serves you tight,”

“If something like this ever happens to your mother or your sister, let’s see if you can say the same thing.”

As soon as she finished, Hallie’s three simps hung their heads in shame. They weren’t dumb after all, they made it into the top high school and Cle

It just took them a moment, but now they were finally snapping out of it and realizing what was really going o

The three of them glanced at Hallia, wanting to say something but holding back. Then they turned to Noreen, stammering out an apology before quickly returning to their seats.

Hallie just stared blankly, her eyes wide and unfocused. She never imagined things would spiral this far out of control.

In the past, all she had to do was cover her face and cry, and the guys in class would instantly rush to defend her. She didn’t even have to do anything— whoever tried to mess with her would end up leaving in frustration.

But today, all those guys who used to have a crush on her had fallen completely silent. And everyone else in the class was looking at her with nothing but blame and disapproval in their eyes.

Unable to stand the weight of those stares, Hallie bolted out of the classroom, crying,

Edith curved her lips in a faint smirk, then lowered her head and went back to her practice problems.

Noreen walked over to Edith’s desk. Her voice was low and with a bit of attitude as she said, “Don’t think I owe you a thank you just because you stepped

She thought, “Edith had a hand in what happened to me last night. I would never forgive her for that–not in a million years.

‘But if she hadn’t stood up for me today, maybe I would be the one running out of the classroom in tears right now. So, should I thank her?

As Noreen was still tangled up in her thoughts, a mechanical voice suddenly chimed in Edith’s mind.

The System said, [Host, you have gained sincere gratitude from another. Affinity +1.|

Edith glanced up and said flatly, “Don’t bother thanking me.”

Noreen grumbled inwardly, I didn’t even say thank you. Seriously, who does she think she is, assuming so much?” with a butt, she flung her hand and marched back to her seat.

Edith couldn’t care less about the whole drama–she just kept working on her practice problems like nothing happened.

At first, she used to rack her brains over every question, but now she was breeding through them like it was a piece of cake. And ich one she nailed, the wealth points she earned just kept shooting up.

The whole morning passed in a blur, and by ngon, it was time for piano practice again

After lunch, Edith packed up her stuff and headed over to the music hall

The performance was set for Thursday night, and one could practically feel the nerves in the air–everyone who was going to be on stage was busy

The department head was mainly here to discuss the National Piano Competition.

The National Piano Competition was a major event on a nationwide scale. In addition to the spots rained through the preliminary rounds, each major music academy could also recommend its candidates for the competition.

Colleges usually got more slots, and for high schools or middle schools, even getting one was a big deal.
