Sierra let out a short laugh and didn’t bother arguing. Instead, she took out her phone, pressed play, and let the room fill with the recording of her conversation with Denise just moments ago.

Denise’s face changed slightly. She hadn’t expected Sierra to do that.

From the recording, Sierra hadn’t actually done anything to Denise.

But someone still insisted, “It’s still your fault. Denise skipped her meal because she was waiting for you.”

Sierra almost laughed out loud. “Did I tell her not to eat? She had time to wait for me, but not to eat?”

Some students finally fell silent, but a few were still stubborn.

“Denise meant well.”

“So I should have given her my bread? That would have been the right thing to do, huh?”

“If I don’t, I’ve committed some kind of crime, is that it?”
