The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 157

Arabella’s face stiffened. She averted her eyes, avoiding Vivienne’s piercing gaze.

Regardless of her evasions, the school’s students hadn’t forgotten about the disgusting things she’d done before, and they started to chatter. “Yeah, Arabella loves to frame people repeatedly.”

“First, she almost killed Faye from Class Eighteen by giving her the wrong treatment, then when Ms. Vivienne stepped in to save her, she accused Ms. Vivienne of stealing her credit.”

“She falsely accused her foster father of assaulting her when she was young. I think that’s the worst thing anyone can ever do.”

“Exactly. I bet this time she’s trying to frame Coral.”

“She must be seeking revenge because Coral testified for her when she falsely accused her

own foster father.”

Arabella trembled with anger, but Tristan misinterpreted her reaction as sadness and fiercely

defended Arabella to Coral.

“Even if Arabella did frame you, it must have been your fault. You must have done something

to upset her!”

The surrounding students fell silent, taken aback by his outburst. They wondered if this guy was out of his mind.

According to him, even if Arabella hurt someone else, it was their fault. Arabella was completely blameless. Was he crazy?

Vivienne had had enough of Arabella and Tristan’s drama. She turned to Coral and said, “Tell me in detail what just happened.”

Coral had been biting her lip and holding back her tears without anyone to support her. But now that Vivienne had stepped up, she finally had an outlet for her grievances, and her tears started to flow uncontrollably.

“I was just going upstairs back to class when Arabella suddenly ran past me, fell down, and then accused me while crying.”

“You liar!” Tristan clearly didn’t believe her and moved to slap Coral again.
