Chapter 274: Beating

Graeme initially had no intention of getting involved in the dispute, but Kate’s words were too offensive to ignore. Unable to hold back, he spoke up, subtly indicating his support for Peyton. “Kate, why are you resorting to name-calling?” he questioned.

Kate, undaunted, held her head high, her elegant neck connecting to her delicate chin. She displayed an attitude of pride and innocence, as if she had done nothing wrong.

The principal, with his meaty hands, slammed his desk and leaned forward, exuding an authoritative presence.

“Exactly, Kate, you are being too insolent. Using foul language in front of me!” he admonished.

Kate remained unapologetic. “What does it matter if I use foul language? She’s the thief crying ‘Stop thief’. Why can’t I call her out?”

Meanwhile, Peyton, teary-eyed, snuggled up to Graeme, feeling wronged and seeking his support.

“Kate, you said I was the thief crying ‘Stop thief’. Do you have any evidence? I have the receipt from when you bought the alcohol with your name on it, and the owner can testify.”

With all the pieces of the puzzle, including witness testimony, material evidence, and a clear motive, everyone now seemed to believe that Kate was lying.
