No longer a pushover

Chapter 242

Noelle hacked into Samantha's phone and, as expected, found the nasty comments Samantha had made about her in the business school group chat.

She quickly skimmed through them, then dug deeper and discovered an encrypted document. When she unlocked it, she found a disturbing collection of photos and videos related to the bullying of girls.

She clicked on one of the videos, watching as a girl was humiliated and verbally abused.

Noelle had only seen this kind of bullying on TV. She never imagined it could happen in real life. But worse still, the bullying didn't stop even after the girl took her own life. The cycle continued, with another girl replacing the previous victim and enduring the same torment.

It was no wonder Samantha had been so skilled at isolating her and turning the entire class against her. She was a repeat offender.

Noelle copied all the images and videos before taking control of Samantha's phone. She uploaded them to Instagram with a single defiant line.

"Yes, I bullied her to death. Come and catch me if you dare!"

Once everything was posted, Noelle logged out of Samantha's phone and wiped all traces of her activity. Since Samantha was so arrogant, Noelle might as well give her a final push. After everything was done, she lay down and went to sleep. The first thing Noelle did the next morning was scroll through Instagram.

The post she had made from Samantha's account had already been deleted. But others had saved the videos and photos, and people were still buzzing about it online. It seemed like the Merlocks had acted quickly, but the internet would never forget—those videos and photos would be around forever.
