After some digging, Wendy discovered that Kade, who had been fired, was now reduced to working as a violin instructor at a children''s music center.
A former Luna Orchestra violinist was now teaching little brats.
To make things worse, just yesterday, she had been dragged into an online scandal and publicly mocked. The humiliation was suffocating.
Kade forced a fake smile as she dealt with two relentless parents. However, in her mind, she was cursing them to hell and back.
Then she turned back to the ssroom. Facing a group of hyperactive kids, she couldn''t help but mutter under her breath, "Damn brats! What are you even learning violin for? Go learn to dance and break your legs instead!"
Just then, a colleague stepped in, blocking her path. "Kade, someone''s looking for you outside."
Kade''s face soured. Irritated, she waved dismissively. "Who the hell is worth my time? Just bring them in."
"But..."
"But what? Do you know which orchestra Ie from? And where did you evene from-some nameless institution? Who are you to question me? Just do what I said!"
She shot the colleague a cold re.
Her colleague flinched, muttering under their breath, "She looks like she''s here for trouble. But hey, if you''re that eager to let her in, then deal with it yourself."
The moment the door opened, Wendy burst in like a wild horse. Before Kade could react, she was tackled to the ground.
A sharp pnded across her face.
"You lied to me! What Luna Orchestra violinist? What expensive private lessons?
"After taking your damn sses, I couldn''t even score above half the points in the Javerton City Violin Competition! I didn''t even pass the threshold!
"You fraud! Give me back my money, or I''ll break your hands myself and make sure you never touch a violin again!"
Wendy pped her twice more, grabbing Kade''s arm with all her strength.
Kade had already been bottling up her anger. After getting pped, shepletely lost it. With a sudden burst of strength, she broke free from Wendy''s grip and kicked her hard in the back.
Wendy was sent rolling into the corner.
Kade rolled up her sleeves, eyes zing. "I haven''t gone to look for you, yet you have the nerve toe here demanding a refund?
"If I hadn''t wasted my time teaching a useless idiot like you, I wouldn''t have been kicked out of the orchestra!
"Talentless fools like you shouldn''t
even be learning the violin-you should all just drop dead with these damn brats! Teaching you was
"And don''t think I don''t know! I told you to deal with Ruth, and you went andnded her in the hospital!
"You wanna y this game, huh? l''H find evidence and send you to jailt You want a refund after you hit me? In your dreams! You should be paying me instead!"
She stepped on Wendy''s hand, leaning down with a menacing re.
"I''ve already lost everything anyway. So why not drag you down with me? Let''s spend the rest of our lives rotting in prison together!"
"You little―" Wendy''s eyes widened in horror. Then, ovee with rage, she flipped Kade over and grabbed her by the throat.
"Rot in prison? You and your whole family should rot in prison! I''ll tear your filthy mouth apart!"
"Help! She''s trying to kill me!" Realizing she couldn''t break free, Kade wed at Wendy''s hands and screamed for help.
Her coworkers, who had suffered
velbet
under Kade''s bullying for some time,
stood back while recording
everything on their phones with
great enthusiasm.
The two brawled for a while before the center''s management finally rushed over and pulled them apart.
But by then, the children had been traumatized, and Kade''s words had been heard by everyone.
To make matters worse, her colleagues uploaded the videos online. Soon, angry parents flooded the center, surrounding itpletely.
Wendy, fearing things would spiral further, clutched her bruised arm and stormed out. However, before leaving, she red viciously at Kade.
"Kade Winter! You''re a fraud! I won''t let you off!"
Kade also wanted to flee.
