The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Chapter 715

The ex-classmate continued, "And yet, in front of everyone, you're trying to pin all your past mistakes on Annalise? Do you really think that's going to work?"

"Everyone from our school knows exactly what kind of person you were. You threw your weight around just because your family was rich and had connections. If you didn't like someone, you bullied them. It was as simple as that."

"When students complained to the teachers, nothing ever changed. They had no choice but to endure it."

"Since we're talking about the past, why don't we go over all the brilliant things Yelena did?"

"Who was it that kept stealing the awards Annalise earned through her hard work? How did Yelena manage to get the awards when her grades were terrible, and no one wanted to associate with her?"

As more people spoke up, Yelena's expression darkened.

Of course, she couldn't admit to anything, so she quickly tried to twist the narrative. "My grades only went downhill because Annalise hurt me so badly that I lost all confidence in studying!"

"Oh? Then how did you manage to win all those awards when Annalise was still around, but the moment she left, you couldn't win a single one? Meanwhile, Annalise transferred schools and only won more awards."

Yelena opened her mouth but couldn't come up with an answer.
