The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday
Chapter 344

"Where's Freya? Tell her to get out here now!" Jenny was storming through the classroom, her eyes scanning for Freya, but she was nowhere to be found.

At that moment, Luna stood up and said, "Hi, we're in the middle of a lesson. What's with the commotion?"

"You think I'm causing a scene? Luna, don't act like you don't know what's going on. I know you're Freya's best friend! And with your family owning that major news outlet, you must've been snooping around for dirt on me to help her out. How could you guys be so heartless!"

As Jenny moved to grab Luna's hair, the teacher, who had been trying to maintain control, finally lost it and slammed a book down on the desk.

The room fell into a sudden silence.

"Which class are you from? Who allowed you to disrupt my lesson like this? Get out, now!" the teacher bellowed.

Still fuming but stunned by the teacher's fury, Jenny shot Luna a venomous look before storming out of the classroom.

"Serves her right!" Luna was aware Jenny had been bullying Freya for some time. Now that Jenny's shady past was the hot topic online, Luna felt justice had been served. She thought, 'If you don't want your misdeeds to be known, don't commit them in the first place.' People like Jenny deserved to get their comeuppance!

Outside the classroom, a crowd had gathered, all eager to see Jenny's downfall. Jenny had bullied many school juniors, and seeing her humiliated brought them a sense of vindication.

"What are you looking at? Scram!" Jenny was past caring about her image. She was determined to wait for Freya and teach her a lesson.

Sure enough, Freya appeared from the school's elevator soon after.

Blinded by rage and not noticing who else was with Freya, Jenny charged forward and slapped her across the face.

The slap echoed, and Freya took it

without a word, causing an intake of breath from the onlookers. Silence enveloped the crowd for a long

moment.

Feeling a sense of twisted

satisfaction, Jenny sneered, "Youet

think you can get me expelled? My dad's on the school board. You can't touch me!"

"Jenny! What have you done?" A deep, stern voice cut through the air, freezing Jenny in her tracks.

"Dad?"

Besides Jenny's father stood several men in suits, all exuding an aura of power and authority. They were unmistakably business tycoons.

Jenny quickly recognized many

faces in the crowd as the school's

investors, senior leaders from

Summit University, and even

officials from the education department. The principal was there too and none of them looked pleased.

Jenny was suddenly at a loss. What was happening?

"Today was supposed to be an inspection day. What are you doing causing such a scene?" Jenny's father stepped forward, his grip firm on her arm, as confusion swirled in Jenny's mind.
