Chapter 12 Have I Not Been Patient Enough?

"A thief?!"

"What's happening?"

"Has someone stolen something? How brazen! How dare they steal with so many people around?"

"Anybody who dares to steal something here must be a habitual offender or a new student. They must be punished severely."

"This student is well-dressed and doesn't look like a thief. Could it be a misunderstanding?"

"Oh, please. A misunderstanding? Looks are deceiving. Don't be fooled by her beauty. That's how thieves operate these days. Don't think she can't be a thief just because she's pretty!"

The crowd was engaged in a heated discussion. Some didn't believe that Violeta was the thief, but most did. After all, rumors spread like wildfire.

Zelena seemed willing to publicly confront Violeta to get the photo. She had dropped all pretense and no longer spoke to Violeta affectionately.

"Are you sure this photo is yours?"

"Yes. It's not a photo of me. It's a photo of a girl with a round face and bangs, and it's important to me. Give it back to me!"

Heh. Zelena can even accurately describe the little girl's appearance in the photo. This confirmed that Zelena had intentionally stolen this photo from Violeta in her previous life. The picture was indeed Zelena's stepping stone to success.
