Rebirth vs. Rebirth: Tragedy to Triumph

Chapter 237 Highlighter

“He really has bad character!”

“Kaylee stole the money. It’s clear-cut, she was caught in the act. What more is there to say?”

Candy chimed in, “Yes, it’s outrageous. The worst part is she’s still close with Violeta. Stealing from her own good friend-so shameless! Is she trying to harm Violeta?”

Violeta remained silent.

Kaylee immediately shook her head, “I didn’t steal the money. I have no idea why it was in my bag.”

Violeta glanced down briefly, then looked up at Zelena standing in the corner.

Zelena smirked at Violeta.

It was like she was saying to Violeta, “Didn’t expect that, huh? You got Kaylee to mess with me before, and now this is payback for her.”

The counselor frowned. “Kaylee, you’ve got to explain this to me! Otherwise, I’ll have to report this to the school for serious consequences!” Kaylee was at a loss for how to prove she was innocent.

Her mind was a mess.

“I swear I didn’t steal that money. And even if I did, why would I be dumb enough to stash it in my own bag? I’m not that stupid.”

Gillian interrupted her, “Why wouldn’t it make sense? You’re close with Violeta. She wouldn’t think you’d do it, so maybe you saw a chance and took it!”
