Chapter 589


    "I don’t want it!" Ynda''s face twisted with disgust, and her voice was full of hostility. "Don''t bother


    "Here, take this money. If it''s not enough, call me." Yvonne stuffed a few hundred bucks into her


    pocket.


    The money in Ynda''s pocket wasn''t much. Although she thought it was too little, she still epted it.


    "Alright, you better head home now."


    Her voice was stillced with impatience.


    "Call me if you need anything."


    "Mhm."


    Ynda turned to head back to school, only to see Arabe and her gang. Seething with anger, she


    made her way towards Kelly.


    "What''s it to you what goes on between Arabe and me? Are you her little minion or something?


    Always attacking me whenever you see me?"


    "And what are you? A shameless scumbag. Do you have any idea how much Arabe has done for


    your family? And how do you repay her?"


    "What''s it to you how we treat her?"


    "Of course, it matters!" Kelly retorted angrily. "If you mess with Arabe, you mess with me! I''ll teach


    you a lesson if you dare to pull any stunts behind her back. Got it?"


    "Hmmm, don''t get too cocky. Maybe one day, you''ll fall t on your face, too."


    Upon hearing Ynda''s words, it was clear she was now setting her sights on Kelly, ready to seize any


    opportunity for revenge.


    "Tryying a finger on her." Arabe red at Ynda coldly. "Fancy a stint in jail with those two


    heartless people? Go ahead and try."


    "Yoli." Yvonne, who was standing not far away, saw the altercation between Ynda and the group of


    students and wanted to step in.


    "Stay out of it!" Ynda red at her impatiently, then turned to Arabe. "We''ll see about that!"


    "See what? Who wants to look at you? You''re full of yourself."


    Kellypletely dismissed her, but Yvonne, who was not far away, kept watching. When Ynda left,


    she walked over.


    "Auntie, just to be clear, she was the one who came over and started yelling at me. I was just


    retaliating," Kelly quickly exined.


    "She has changed a lot in the past few months, but I hope you won''t hurt her. It was wrong of her to yell


    at you, and I apologize on her behalf," said Yvonne, bowing deeply with a sincere look on her face.


    "I don''t get it. She doesn''t even see you as her mom. She only turned to you because she had no one


    else. She''s just using you!"


    "I know, and that''s okay." Yvonne lowered her head and epted the bitter truth. "As long as she still


    calls me mom, I can''t abandon her in this life. No matter how hard and tiring it gets, I have to ensure


    she has food, a ce to live, and books to read. But she''s been pretty crankytely, so if she offends


    you guys, you can tell me, and I''ll talk to her."


    Kelly was at a loss for words. If talking could solve the problem, things wouldn''t have escted to this


    point.


    "Please." Yvonne bowed again, pleading with them to spare her daughter.


    "As long as she doesn''t start anything, we won''t do anything to her. But we can''t let her off the hook if


    she goes too far. After all, we''re not her mom, right?"


    Kelly bowed and said, "We''ve got stuff to do so that we won''t bother you any longer. Goodbye."


    Watching their retreating figures as they entered the school, Yvonne thought to herself, hoping that Yoli


    wouldn''t make any more mistakes. Kids these days were not easy to deal with.


    "Ynda''s mom is so nice. I just don''t understand why she raised such a terrible daughter," Mya said,


    puzzled.


    Joyce agreed, saying as they walked, "Ynda was just acting sweet and innocent in front of the guys.


    But when she talks to her own mom, her attitude is so poor."


    "That''s because she''s her foster mother," Kelly said nonchntly.


    "What? Foster mom? Where''s her biological mom?" Mya and Joyce asked in unison.


    "In jail."


    Mya and Joyce exchanged nces, surprised by theplexity of Ynda''s family background.


    "So, what''s the deal between her and Arabe?" Mya asked again.


    "It''s a long story. Basically, Arabe has been good to their family, but they repaid her kindness with


    ingratitude and ended up getting themselves locked up. In short, keep your distance if you bump into


    her."


    At that moment, the school''s broadcast station was making an announcement.


    "Noreen, Daryl, Greta, Keely, and others from the surgery ss bullied their ssmates during


    extracurricr activities. They are to write a 3,000-word reflection paper, and the ringleader, Noreen, is


    given a major demerit! This is a public warning for the entire school. All students are to take this as a


    warning. School is a ce for learning, so don''t bring the bad habits from outside here. We hope all


    students will get along, be united and friendly, and gain knowledge and happiness here."


    "Serves them right." Joyce felt instantly relieved upon hearing the announcement.


    "It''s good that they''re being publicly admonished. At least they''ll remember this and won''t dare to mess


    around for a while," Mya agreed.


    But Kelly nced at Arabe. If it had been Arabe who got into trouble today, these students would


    probably had been detained at the police station, let alone expelled.


    Joyce and Mya probably didn''t have any powerful family connections, so the matter was simply


    brushed under the carpet.


    But they didn''t lose out in this incident.


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    "But it''s strange. We clearly taught them a lesson, so why didn''t the school publicly admonish us?"


    Joyce had been puzzled by this question since earlier.


    Mya was also at a loss. She reasoned, "Logically speaking, we were the ones who made them soak in


    water and threw rocks at them. We''re the ones in the wrong."


    When Kelly heard this, she patted Arabe on the shoulder and said, "That''s because your straight-A


    ssmate deleted all the surveince footage of us teaching them a lesson."


    "What?? Can you delete surveince footage? How did you do that??"


    Both girls werepletely stunned. Arabe was with them the entire time and didn''t go anywhere, so


    how did she delete the surveince footage??


    "Arabe, I just realized you''re so amazing. You seem to know everything," Mya said, looking at


    Arabe with even more admiration and curiosity.


    Kelly patted her on the shoulder and said, "Be more confident. You can drop the ''seem to.''"


    Her Be really knew her stuff, man. If there''s anything she didn''t know how to do, it''s probably dating.


    Who knew what she was like when she was dating Romeo? Was she icy or shy??


    "Hey, Be." Kelly suddenly leaned into Arabe''s ear, teasing her quietly, "Your man hasn''t been


    looking for you recently?"


    "Him," Arabe was about to say something when her eyes caught a tall figure in the distance.


    Romeo? What''s he doing at school?
