Chapter 538 Not Powerful Enough
Catherine’s admission was direct, and not only Isabella but even Beatrice herself was stunned.
Once Beatrice realized what had happened, she felt secretly delighted. She had thought that Catherine was a powerful figure,but it turned out Catherine was just a paper tiger.
If it were Beatrice, she would never say it out loud. In this world, everyone likes to sympathize with the weak. Telling the truthwasn’t necessarily a good thing to do.
Beatrice sniffled and held Isabella’s hand, knowing that Isabella would definitely help her. “Bella, | studied so hard to get intoStyre University. If I'm forced to drop out, my life will be ruined!”
Isabella understood what Beatrice meant and sympathized with her plight. She knew how difficult it was to get into StyreUniversity. During Isabella’s three years of high school, she didn’t even take a single weekend off, all for the sake of successfullygetting into Styre University.
Earlier, Isabella was afraid of falsely accusing Catherine, not daring to speak up. But now that Catherine had admitted it herself,she naturally had to stand up for Beatrice.
To avoid conflict, Isabella tried to maintain a friendly attitude toward Catherine. “Catherine, we're classmates and roommates.That’s fate. | know Beatrice was in the wrong, but expulsion is a bit too severe. How about we find a different form of punishment,like having Beatrice sincerely apologize to you?”
Catherine glanced at Isabella. Even though Catherine hadn’t done anything, Isabella felt an immense sense of shame. Isabellasilently lowered her head, not daring to meet Catherine’s eyes. Then, she discreetly tugged on Amelia’s arm, hoping Ameliawould speak up.
Amelia had a better relationship with Catherine than Isabella did, so maybe Catherine would listen to her.novelbin
Although Amelia also thought that Catherine’s demands were a bit excessive, her principle had always been “Do not adviseothers on what they haven't experienced themselves.” She remained silent and chose to be a bystander, not getting involved.
Sensing Amelia’s indifferent attitude, Isabella had no choice but to continue persuading Catherine.“Catherine, we’re classmates after all.If you’re not satisfied with an apology, you can make other requests.”
Isabella, on the surface, was known for her kindness, but to put it bluntly, she couldn’t distinguish right from wrong. She tendedto believe whatever people said, but deep down, she wasn’t a bad person.
“Isabella, did Beatrice tell you why her parents came to school today?”Isabella was taken aback and looked at Catherine in surprise. “You mean Beatrice’s parents came to school?”
“Humph.” Catherine sneered. “It seems that Beatrice has been keeping a lot from you. Her parents came to school today notonly to demand a public apology from me but also to persuade the director to expel me.”
If it weren’t for Catherine having a more powerful background, she would be the one facing expulsion today, not Beatrice.
Isabella was shocked. Beatrice indeed hadn’t mentioned this to her. Beatrice only said that Catherine’s apology wasn’t sincereand that she had brought this matter to the attention of the president. She also mentioned that Catherine had a capableboyfriend who forced her to drop out and made her parents beg for mercy.
However, Beatrice didn’t mention that she had asked her parents to come to school first to teach Catherine a lesson and forceCatherine to drop out.
Amelia, upon hearing what Catherine said, secretly felt relieved that she hadn’t interfered. Otherwise, she would have beenembarrassed now.
Facing Beatrice’s hypocritical behavior, Amelia couldn’t help but comment in a sarcastic tone, “I thought she was so pitiful, but itturns out she’s only pitiful because her background isn’t powerful enough! The first thing she did after making a mistake was askher parents for help. How childish! And the most embarrassing part is that her parents are not powerful enough, so she ended upbegging for mercy!”
Although Amelia didn’t mention any names, there were only four people in the room. Who else could she be referring to?Beatrice couldn't sit still anymore. She stood up abruptly, glaring at Amelia and scolding her loudly.
“Amelia, what the hell is wrong with you? Why do you have to slander me like this? | didn’t offend you. Why are you mockingme?”
“Hmph!” Amelia coldly snorted in disdain. “Then why did you ask me for help? Just a moment ago, you sat there crying, beggingus to intercede with Catherine on your behalf. | didn’t expect that you were the real culprit!”
Beatrice, despite her arrogance, was left speechless. Amelia’s retorts made her face turn red. She decided not to argue withAmelia. Instead, she focused her gaze on Catherine.
“Catherine, how do you plan to resolve this matter? State your conditions, and | will agree to them. But you have to guaranteethat | won’t be expelled, and that my grandfather won't find out about this.”
Catherine sat there, her eyes slightly raised, calmly assessing Beatrice. She couldn't understand what was wrong with Beatrice.How could Beatrice be so foolish?
At this point, Beatrice still maintained her arrogant attitude, indicating that she hadn’t learned her lesson yet. Catherine couldn'tbe bothered to argue with her. “You're not even worthy of negotiating with me.”
After saying that, Catherine stood upand pushed the chair to its originalposition. She had thought therewould be an interesting twist ofevents, but it turned out that none ofthem were worth her time. VisitNovelDrama.Org to read the latestchapter of this novel
Seeing that Catherine didn’t fall for her tactics and even ignored her, Beatrice became desperate and started crying again.“Catherine, why are you so heartless? What can make you satisfied? My death?”
Catherine opened the window, revealing her beautiful face, her gaze calmly fixed on Beatrice.
“If you want to kill yourself, go somewhere else. Don’t disturb our sleep.”
She spoke in the calmest tone, uttering the harshest words.
Someone like Beatrice would never actually commit suicide. At most, she would use it as a means to threaten others andachieve her goals.
