Chapter: 1490
She sighed, "As for the photos, let's just leave it be. Who knows how many copies they have.”
The thought of her nude photos made her uneasy.
"Norah, when you get home, please inform my parents about today's incident. I don't have the courage to call them."
Her cousin and aunt had only been back for a few days, and already, she had caused so much trouble. Roseanne was terrified of being scolded.
“Roseanne, it's okay. Your parents love you. You should've told them sooner," Norah told her.
She knew her uncle wouldn't let his daughter suffer, even if it meant facing off against the Miller family. But Roseanne had been too timid to speak up when she was bullied.
Roseanne shook her head, distressed. "I just can't bring myself to tell them, Norah. It's getting late; you should head back. I won't keep you for dinner, haha."
She tried to appear relaxed, but the effort fell flat.
Norah patted her head gently, recognizing that Roseanne had done enough for today. There was no need to push her further.
“Alright, call me if you need anything."
Watching her cousin walk away, Roseanne felt a wave of sadness. Her cousin really was kind to her.
When Roseanne returned to the dormitory clutching her teddy bear, her roommates looked at her with admiration.
"Roseanne, you're incredible! I heard you actually stood up to Zendaya and her crew. Is that true?" one asked.
Another chimed in, “They looked so pathetic stumbling out of the bathroom."
A third roommate added, “Weren't you afraid to fight back? What gave you the courage this time? Alas, the Miller family won't let this slide easily."
“And who was that impressive woman with you? She single-handedly took on three people and left them battered!"
Roseanne sat at the table, unzipped the teddy bear, and began pulling out the soggy cotton. The bear was filthy, having been trampled and soaked in dirty water.
However, she was absorbed in her task, carefully removing the stuffing.
She replied to her roommates, “That was my cousin. She visited me at school today. After all the bullying from Zendaya and her crew, why shouldn't I fight back?"
Pausing, Roseanne thought about her nude photos in their possession.
With over two years left at school, how would she face her classmates if those images were revealed?
She had unleashed her anger today, but what about her future life at school?
Her roommates watched her with a mix of curiosity and malice, and she was aware of their scrutinizing eyes.
She reassured herself that the next two years would pass quickly. She couldn't disappoint her cousin.
