Chapter 239 Unexpected Support

Lilac’s P.O.V

This time around, I couldn't meet Krimson's eyes when I entered the Principal’s office. I couldn’t even imagine how, only a few hours ago, I had been running my mouth, standing up to Krimson for the first time in my life.

But now, with the Principal, Mrs. Addison, and Serena's mother, Mrs. Stonewater’s piercing gaze on me, I had suddenly lost my voice. I hated this feeling of weakness, of being made to feel insignificant and docile. But what choice did I have? My life was literally on the line at this moment…and this meeting would be the deciding factor of what happened to me from now onwards.

"You!”

My head snapped to the side as the sting of the slap registered.

I hadn’t even noticed when Mrs. Stonewater had risen from her seat and hauled herself in my path, but now that she had me in her grasp, she took every chance she had to vent her anger out on me.
