The Queen They Buried

Chapter 106

Chapter 106

Fresh off her post-competition interview, Aubree got a text from her teacher. She was expected back in class the next day.

Aubree let out a scornful laugh. “If the principal can still keep his job after that investigation, I’ll eat my hat!”

While Aubree was riding high, the Wilson household was drowning in misery.

Ronald had gone all out booking a luxury venue, expecting praise and admiration. Instead, he got nothing but utter humiliation.

On the sofa, Carmen sat with her face buried in her hands, sobbing, while Alice sat beside her, gently comforting her, her heart aching for her.

Ronald, irritated by Carmen’s crying, snapped, “Stop blubbering! Just look at the mess you’ve made, you’ve completely disgraced me!”

Ronald was obsessed with his reputation and desperate to save face among his friends. Once news of Carmen’s cheating scandal at the competition broke, it spread like wildfire. Internet sleuths quickly identified her, and with her previous viral scandal, everyone realized it was the same girl again.

Before Carmen even arrived, the scandal had already spread.

Ronald’s rage kept building as he remembered the awkward, mocking looks from his friends at the hotel. He snapped at Carmen, “Weren’t you supposed to be good at art? Don’t you always get top marks? How could you be so stupid as to get caught?”
