Chapter 330

Carmen stood frozen in place, her cheek still burning from the stinging slap. Her eyes glinted with malice, and her features twisted in fury. If she didn’t need Aubree’s help, she couldn’t possibly have let Aubree humiliate her like this.

Carmen seethed inwardly, thinking, ‘Just you wait, Aubree. Once the art exhibition is over and my reputation is restored, I’ll make you pay with your life!

Those students were tight–lipped. Even though they failed, they didn’t say who put them up to it. They just said they had a grudge against Aubree and wanted to teach her a lesson.

Since Aubree hadn’t suffered any actual physical harm, Rithol University downplayed the incident, merely requiring the students involved to submit a written reflection, and the matter was quietly put to rest.
