All Her Secrets

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 truth wasn’t necessarily a good thing to do.

Beatrice sniffled and held Isabella’s hand, knowing that Isabella would definitely help her. “Bella, I studied so hard to get into Styre 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 Styre University. During Isabella’s three years of high school, she didn’t even take a single weekend off, all for the sake of successfully getting 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. I 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. Isabella silently lowered her head, not daring to meet Catherine’s eyes. Then, she discreetly tugged on Amelia’s arm, hoping Amelia would speak up.

Amelia had a better relationship with Catherine than Isabella did, so maybe Catherine would listen to her.

Although Amelia also thought that Catherine’s demands were a bit excessive, her principle had always been “Do not advise others on what they haven’t experienced themselves.” She remained silent and chose to be a bystander, not getting involved.
