Chapter 456 An Old Misunderstanding

Wrenna couldn’t remember how she got home.

Just when she arrived at Jackdaws Mansion, she received a call from Xandra.

“Wrenna, haven’t you finished your discussion? Why aren’t you back yet?”

When Wrenna was silent for a long time, Xandra realized that something was amiss.

She asked anxiously, “What did that woman say? Wrenna, where’s your spine? How can you let a few words from her get you down? Don’t forget that you’re Mrs. Quigley. You have to be stronger than this!”

Filled with tears, Wrenna cried into the phone. “No, it’s not like that. Xandra, you don’t understand.”

“You’re damn right that I don’t. So, explain to me what actually happened!”

All Wrenna did was cry.

Xandra grew concerned. “If you’re not going to tell me about it, I’ll tell Damian and have him question Stella about what she said.”

“No, don’t.”

Overwhelmed by emotions, Wrenna stopped Xandra at once, fearing that she would call Damian.

“Don’t Xandra. I don’t want Damian to know. Really, I beg you. You cannot tell him. You really can’t.”

Xandra sighed. “Fine, I’ll not say anything to him. However, you have to get a grip of yourself and come back for the afternoon’s class. Didn’t you promise our teacher that you will be disciplined in your studies because of Stella? Or else, it will be a disgrace if you are held back for a year. No matter what, don’t let your studies slide. I’ll give you half an hour to return at once.”

After ending the call, Wrenna sat in the living hall and gradually stopped crying. Getting to her feet, she went to see Cora before leaving.

She knew that Cora would definitely inform Damian about how she cried in the day. To avoid that scenario, she had to talk to Cora and think of an excuse for her not to.

After that, Wrenna returned to her dorm. There, Dora regretted why she had even liked Stella in the first place. Time and again, Stella would hurt Wrenna. It was now evident that Stella was a malicious person.

Just when Dora was cursing Stella, Wrenna walked in.

Everyone felt bad for Wrenna when they saw how swollen and red her eyes were.

Dora walked up and gave Wrenna a hug. She then comforted her by patting her on her back.
