Chapter 1699
Sophie's invisible pressure made Nichole momentarily struggle for breath.
What's happening...
In just one day, how had the Sophie she knew transformed so completely?
"If you're not willing to hand it over, then swallow it."novelbin
Sophie seemed to have already decided Nichole's fate, casually picking up a handful of crystals from the ground and gripping Nichole's chin.
Nichole felt a sharp pain in her jaw, her face filled with terror as she looked at Sophie in front of her.
"No! No!"
Nichole shook off Sophie's hand, the crystals scattering across the floor.
After breaking free, Nichole tried to run, but the other students in the class had already blocked the door.
A few classmates picked up the crystals from the ground on Sophie's behalf, slowly advancing towards Nichole.
"You're committing murder! This is illegal! Don't come any closer! Let me out! Let me out!"
Nichole struggled, desperate to escape from the classroom.
But there were no exits for her to flee through.
"Are you all going to be villains? You're abetting tyranny! I'll tell the headmaster of Eastwood College, you'll all be doomed!"
Nichole had heard that the rules at Eastwood College were very strict; any student found breaking them would be dealt with severely.
These were children from influential families; any punishment from the school would be a major embarrassment.
Hearing Nichole's words, the footsteps around her halted.
Nichole thought her words had had an effect, immediately saying, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about today, as long as you let me go! And you have to ensure I can attend
Eastwood College next veend
Hearing Nichole's brazen words, everyone burst into laughter.
"Has she lost her mind? She's so naive. Do you really think we'd be scared of you telling a teacher? We're not children. Don't you know school rules are just for show? An outsider like you trying to meddle in our affairs, I guarantee you won't even see the headmaster before being kicked out."
"Even if you did see the headmaster, what then? What's our status, and what's yours? Did you really think telling the headmaster would make a difference?"
"Besides, you stole Mr. Gordon's
bracelet for Sophie, that's a criminal
offense. We could send you straight

to the police. I remember that bracelet is worth eight million, and it's one of a kind. For someone like you clawing your way up, even a hundred years of work wouldn't pay
off that debt."
...
"Stop wasting your breath on her, just shove it in."
Someone interrupted the condemnation, and Nichole's terrified voice filled the classroom.
Ten minutes later...
Suddenly, there was a knock on the classroom door.
Nichole, already tormented beyond recognition, tried to spit out the crystals but to no avail. Her eyes were filled with red veins from excessive terror.
When she saw someone pushing the door open, Nichole felt as if she had grabbed onto a lifeline, immediately lifting her head to look at the person at the door.
A striking man with black athletic wear and fiery red hair stood at the entrance.
His brows were furrowed, his skin tanned, and his shoulders broad.
