Chapter: 1998

“Proceed by all means," Bethany said calmly, her gaze locked on Adele's face. "But don't expect anyone here to comfort you."

“Did I?" Bethany asked with a light chuckle. “Look around. Did anyone actually see me hit you?"

Lillie was quick to support Bethany and said, "I didn't see anything. All I saw was Adele trying to hit me, and Ms. Holt intervened."
