In an instant, dozens of eyes turned in unison.

The classroom fell into a sudden hush.

Asher had been quietly reading when he heard Sofia’s voice. He couldn’t help but lift his head, his gaze landing directly on Jean, who stood at the classroom door.

Jean hadn’t come to school for several days again.

She’d been taking sick leave one after another. No one knew what kind of illness she’d had….

Asher’s fingers instinctively tightened around the pages of his book, and a faint crease appeared between his brows.

At the same time, Lacey was also watching Jean.

Her gaze was cold and distant, and for a moment, a flicker of disdain flashed in her

eyes.

That annoying girl came back to school again. What an eyesore.

Lacey once again regretted not using a higher dose when she poisoned her. She should have. made that girl suffer for a good ten days or more–kept her out of her sight.

Jean suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.

Her eyes were slightly narrowed, sharp like frost, glinting with a wintry chill. “I came to school. today just for you.”

Her voice was soft, like rain falling on a winter night–cold, distant, without warmth.

The moment those words left her lips-

All eyes turned toward Lacey.

Sitting at her desk, and facing Jean at the door, the two of them instantly became the center of everyone’s attention.

The whole class watched as their gazes shifted back and forth between the two girls.

No one had any clue what was going on-

But it felt like a war was about to break out. The air was thick with tension.

Lacey’s expression didn’t change.

What for more accusations, more nonsense about poisoning?

Thinking about it made Lacey’s expression darken. A sharp glint flickered in her eyes.

This girl had no proof. Aside from more false accusations, what else could she do?

Disgusting.
