Jonah cut in abruptly, "You''re part of the Quinn family. You don''t owe her anything whatsoever. Don''t say that again."
Lily nced at Scarlett with concern, her expression genuinely moving.
Scarlett was filled with disgust. She gathered her textbooks, shot a cold look at her old ssmates, and said, "There''s no need to force me out. I''ve been wanting to leave this ssroom for a while."
The homeroom teacher seemed delighted as if a long-held dream had been fulfilled. He promptly informed the teacher of the ss for underachievers that he intended to transfer Scarlett to their ss.
At their school, there was one ss A, five regr sses, and four sses for underachievers. In her past life, Scarlett had been ced in ss F due to her beingbeled a "thief" in her previous life. In this life, even though she was innocent, the ss A homeroom teacher still assigned her to ss F.
This was because the ss F homeroom teacher, a young man who enjoyed challenges, was the only one willing to ept her. The other homeroom teachers disliked Scarlett, viewing her as an underachiever.
Scarlett exited the ssroom with her textbooks in hand. Her stride was steady, and she held herself with straightposure, showing no signs of being pushed out. As she had mentioned before, she had been looking forward to leaving that ssroom for quite some time.
Growing increasingly frustrated by her calm attitude, Jonah suddenly said, "Scarlett, standing out in ss F won''t be simple. If you want to get back to ss A, you''ll need to plead with me."
Scarlett paused and sneered, "Don''t worry. Even if you pleaded, I wouldn''t return."
Jonah was seething, his handsome face clouded with rage. He couldn''t understand where Scarlett found the nerve to address him this way. Didn''t she realize that her attitude only deepened his disdain for her?
Lily was delighted. She wished Scarlett would keep up her arrogant behavior. Once in the ss for underachievers, what could Scarlett possibly learn? Even without tampering with Scarlett''s grades, Lily knew Scarlett had no chance of sess!
She turned to Jonah and gently reassured him, "Jonah, don''t be upset. Once Scarlett spends some time in the underachievers'' ss she''ll understand that you had her best interests at heart. When she recognizes her error, she''ll definitelye to seek your forgiveness."
Jonah remarked irritably, "She''s beingpletely irrational. If she believes she can catch my eye like this, she''s delusional!"
Meanwhile, it was already midday. The bell sounded, and students hurriedly exited the ssroom, making their way to the school cafeteria.
Lily and her best friend Nadia Hayman were strolling arm in arm toward the cafeteria when their roommate, Joanna Walter, dashed over, panting heavily. "Nadia, you need to get back to the dorm quickly and see this!" she eximed.
"Scarlett''s gone mad! She switched her bed with yours, and now your bed is piled with trash!"
By this time, Scarlett was back in the dorm room, enjoying a bowl of instant noodles while sitting on the bed.
Nadia stormed into the room and yelled, "Scarlett, get off my bed!"
When Scarlett remained still, Nadia became enraged and lifted her hand to strike her. Nadia understood that, despite Lily appearing to look after Scarlett, she actually despised her the most. This unspoken approval from Lily allowed Nadia to continue tormenting Scarlett.
However, when she swung her hand, it missed Scarlett and instead hit the instant
noodles Scarlett was holding. The cup of noodles flipped over andnded squarely on Lily''s head as she entered the room. Soup and noodles sttered all over Lily.
The entire dormitory was left in shock. Lily stood there, motionless. Having been spoiled since she was young, she had always looked down on junk food like instant noodles. Yet
now, this very junk food
her from top to bottom. Lily snapped and released a heart-wrenching scream.
