Chapter 383:

Melinda arrived at the scene unnoticed. Stepping forward, she embraced Zuri and began to weep. “Zuri! Oh, my poor Zuri! Why did you keep silent even when you were bullied? Some might think I’m a pushover and that’s why they targeted you. This is all my fault.”

Zuri clung to Melinda, both of them crying. They appeared pitiful, as if they were the ones wronged.

Evelyn regained her composure and glared at Kallie with clear dissatisfaction. “Are you happy now, with things ending up like this?”

Kallie laughed scornfully. “Need I remind you who started this scene? Who unjustly wanted to kick my daughter out of here without figuring out the truth, calling for just one side of the story?
