"What's wrong with Isabel's outfit? She's wearing a sweater and high-waisted pants-perfectly fine. Now, look at yourself. Do you really have the nerve to criticize her? It's the middle of winter, and you're wearing a knit top with cutouts! The holes are so obvious that even

"And that tight mini skirt? It's so short it's barely covering anything. Dressed like that, how can you even comment on Isabel? Are you picking on her because she doesn't have any friends? Or is it because her stepmother's awful and her dad doesn't care about her?" A classmate stepped in to defend Sofia, saying, "Yvette, is it really necessary to be so harsh?"

Yvette scoffed, "Oh, so now it's a group effort to gang up on Isabel, is that it? You can say whatever you want to her, but I can't stand up for her? Spare me the 'we're all classmates' lecture. Where was that sense of camaraderie when you were all tearing Isabel down just moments ago?"

Yvette regretted her decision-she should never have brought Isabel along.

These people weren't classmates; they were ruthless, heartless bullies. All they did was say cruel words without a care for Isabel's feelings, tearing her down without hesitation. It was beyond infuriating.

Clenching her jaw, Yvette took Isabel's hand. "Isabel, let's go. Being stuck with these people as classmates must be the unluckiest thing to ever happen to us!"

Isabel let out a sarcastic laugh, matching Yvette's tone. "You're right. This is nothing like the friendly class reunion I imagined. Instead of celebrating Logan's promotion, it feels more like a personal roast session for me. If I'd known it would turn out like this, I wouldn't have come at all."

Her words, along with Yvette's, left the other classmates looking visibly uncomfortable.

At that moment, Logan stood up, his gaze shifting toward Sofia and her group, his expression anything but friendly.

Isabel noticed Sofia's deliberate glance in her direction. To Isabel, the ones with the least money were always the loudest in showing off. As for her, the fact that she had a mine was something only a few close people, like Beowulf and a couple of others, knew about. "Sofia, that comment really struck a nerve," the female classmate said, her eyes fixed on the watch on Sofia's wrist, her gaze filled with envy and a touch of bitterness. "Your boyfriend's rich, handsome, and so good to you. I wish I could find a man like that." Before
