Chapter 665


    A wave of hushed whispers started to circte.


    "Did you hear? The top scorer is being kept by someone."


    "Really?"


    "Somebody saw her kissing an older man at the school gatest night."


    "I heard she''s got a powerful background, and she''s the one who got the two Winters girls kicked out of


    school!"


    "What? Aren''t the Winters family buddies with the McMillians? How strong must Arabe''s background


    be to not even fear the McMillians?"


    "After Noreen left, Enid also bailed. I heard they''ve already processed their drop-out papers."


    "Who''d have thought this academically outstanding student could be so petty? She can''t stand others.


    Could it be because Enid and Noreen are so attractive, threatening her position?"


    Myrna turned to look. Four girls in uniforms were heading towards the school supermarket, probably to


    grab something.


    One of them, a long-haired girl, said, "I heard she used some dirty tricks to get into the Collins family.


    She even bullied Serena! So annoying! If it weren''t for Serena''s kind parents, she''d have been kicked


    out long ago."


    Myrna couldn''t hold back anymore. She quickly walked up to them and said, "Hold up."


    The four girls turned around, puzzled at Myrna''s pretty but slightly angry face.


    "What''s up?" they asked.


    "You just said Arabe used tricks to get into the Collins family? What''s that about?" Myrna was slightly


    irritated. "You can''t just say whatever."


    "Are you a friend of Arabe''s?" Delia Higgins couldn''t help but furrow her eyebrows. "How do you


    know I''m just bbing? If you''re here to defend Arabe, you''ve got the wrong person and the wrong


    ce!"


    The other three girls also backed Delia up:


    "Do you know who Delia is? Ever heard of the Higgins family? The mayors have to be polite in front of


    her dad!"


    "How dare you talk to Delia like this? Who are you? What does your family do? Do you dare to tell us


    your name?"


    "I suggest you apologize to Delia, let''s just let this slide."


    "Oh." Myrna thought it was some famous person, but it turned out it’s not even that. "You know all


    about Be''s family? And you just spout nonsense, we can sue you for defamation!"


    "Arabe is no good!" Delia was furious, and she didn''t expect this pretty girl to protect Arabe so


    much. What’s so great about Arabe?


    Myrna was angry. "Is the school''s education meant to produce trash like you?"


    "I didn''t make things up. Serena told me herself! Arabe only got the opportunity to study because of


    the Collins family''s support so her top scores are because of the Collins family''s sponsorship!"


    After Delia said this, she realized she''d said too much and covered her mouth. But then she thought


    there was no need to keep Serena''s secrets anymore, given how she''d been bullied. She had to let it


    out, let everyone know the real Arabe!


    She continued, "Arabe, with her good looks and excellent grades, took advantage of the kindness of


    Serena''s parents and convinced them to adopt her. She became their adopted daughter and moved in


    with the Collins family. How else do you exin her being called Arabe Collins?"


    Myrna couldn''t help butugh. "So you''re saying Serena told you Arabe is a sponsored student of the


    Collins family, and because she''s eloquent and charming, she became the Collins'' adopted daughter?


    Is that really it?"


    "Isn''t that the case?" Delia was puzzled by her question.


    "How do you figure Arabe is the type to y mind games and sweet-talk people? She''s always
