Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life

Chapter 1526

At this point, the other three girls couldn't sit still any longer. They might have been students, but deep down, they still had a healthy fear of authority figures.

Patricia gulped, rushed over to Fiona, and pointed a shaky finger at her, panic flashing in her eyes. "Fi...Fiona, quit making stuff up!" Her words stumbled out, her usual flair for speaking nowhere to be found.

Keaton was starting to seriously question what was going on. If these three were the culprits behind all this drama, then Fiona was the innocent one caught in the crossfire.

"Fiona, do you have any proof we did this to you? If you're just throwing around baseless accusations, I'm calling my parents. It's bad enough dealing with this at school, but to be falsely accused too? How am I supposed to face anyone after that?"

"Exactly, Fiona, don't go around making claims you can't back up," Patricia chimed in, quick to latch onto the moment. She clutched the arm of the injured classmate's mom, tears streaming down her face. "Ma'am, you have no idea what it's been like sharing a room with Fiona. It's been a nightmare."

It's only natural for parents to side with their kids, and hearing Patricia's tale, the woman frowned deeply, her focus shifting away from Fiona.

"Sweetheart, tell me what happened," the woman urged, worry etched on her face.

Patricia wasted no time, moving to her injured friend's side and rolling up her sleeve to reveal scars running along her arm, some old and scabbed over. She then lifted her shirt slightly, showing a fresh bruise from when Fiona supposedly kicked her into a metal bed frame earlier that evening.

"See, Ma'am, I'm not making this up. We're good kids, maybe not the top of the class, but we come from decent families. Unlike Fiona, who's just full of lies."
