Chapter 170

Merry had become the center of everyone’s attention at school. Whispers swirled in the corridors and classrooms, leaving no corner untouched by the rumors.

So when she stood on the school field, it was as though all eyes were magnetically drawn to her.

Some had been skeptical at first, but after overhearing a conversation with Leila, they were convinced. If Leila, Merry’s own sister, said it was Merry in those photos, how could it be otherwise?

With friends like these, Merry refused to show weakness. She faced Leila squarely, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Leila was relentless, but the commotion on the stage at the end of the field suddenly drew everyone’s attention.

So when a disturbance erupted on the stage, it instantly captivated the

Four figures in police uniforms marched purposefully up to the stage, their presence commanding. They stood before the microphone.

From a distance, Cordelia recognized Skyler, who seemed to be leading the group. He approached the microphone with a bashful charm, “Geez, speaking in front of such a crowd really gives me the jitters.”
