She’s Back, and Hell’s Coming with Her novel Chapter 80

The girls across the room averted their eyes, each one stubbornly refusing to apologize.

Lacy’s mother snapped, her voice sharp and commanding, “What are you waiting for? Apologize. Now!”

As the queen bee of her clique, Lacy had always been on the receiving end of apologies—never the one to give them.

It hadn’t even been her who threw the punch; Sabrina was the one who’d gotten hurt.

And now she was supposed to apologize? Not a chance.

Lacy shot back instantly, “I nearly got my face wrecked, and I’m the one who has to apologize? Are you kidding me?”

She couldn’t understand why her own mother was taking the other girl’s side.

Her mother scowled. “You think you’re in the right? You said those nasty things—did you think anyone would just sit there and take it? If someone talked about you that way, would you?”

Lacy was momentarily stunned into silence.

If anyone had said things like that about her, she’d have pounded them, no question.

But facing Sabrina, she still refused to back down.

As far as she was concerned, all those rumors about Sabrina were true; everyone at school knew it, and the stories were all over the news online.

She’d only spoken the truth. How could that be wrong?

But under her mother’s fierce glare, Lacy finally gave in.

She walked over to Sabrina and muttered an apology, stiff and reluctant.

The other girls, though clearly seething inside, shuffled forward one by one and mumbled their own forced apologies.

The parents followed suit, approaching Samuel to offer their apologies as well.

Samuel’s expression didn’t soften for a second.

He stared them down, cold and unreadable.

After what they’d done to his niece, he found it laughable that they thought a quick “I’m sorry” could fix everything.

These kids were out of control. If someone didn’t put them in their place, they’d never learn respect.

He knew one thing for sure: if it had been up to him, he wouldn’t have let them off so easily.

There’s a saying—“Good people get taken advantage of.”

But did good deeds ever really get rewarded?

Not always.

Show a hint of weakness, and people will walk all over you. Bullies always prey on the vulnerable.
