Chapter 25: Evangeline’s Dirty Tricks

"What are you doing here, anyway?" he asked as he leaned back on the chair. "And why were you in the library earlier?"

"Why do you ask? Because if I hadn't arrived, you would've continued what you were doing? I won't let that happen." She smirked before handing me a violation form. "I'll be the one to transfer it to the logbook later. Just to make sure you won't do any dirty tricks to avoid your suspension."

"She knows. Don't worry," he explained as he gave me a reassuring look. "I told you that we saw you earlier, Rose."

I rolled my eyes, and Ash laughed because of it.

"I should just get a warning, right?" I asked as I tried to negotiate.
