Chapter 158
Many students took it home to research and look up information. But this one? She just finished it and handed it back right away.
Nora remarked, “I saw her today. It’s really her, but she’s so different from two years ago. Back then, she was so plain, awkward, and all. Now she’s so stunning.”
Judy echoed, “Yeah, I hardly recognized her. Do you think she spent those two years getting plastic surgery?”
As they whispered, they looked up to find someone waiting for them.
Miranda was leaning against a tree up ahead, looking slightly languid. Her lips were tugged when she saw them. “Long time no see.”
Nora felt a strange sense of fear creep up. “Miranda.”
Judy instinctively took a small step back, feeling an inexplicable unease about Miranda.
“What, what do you want?”
Miranda’s lips curled upwards, lighting up her face.
Ten seconds later.
“Ah, please let me go, it hurts, it hurts!” Nora was writhing in the corner, clutching herself in agony. Judy was in the same state, rolling on the ground as if being gnawed at by something.
Both had a silver needle piercing a point on their bodies.
Miranda sat on the steps nearby, leisurely unwrapping a piece of chewing gum and popping it into her mouth. Before she even spoke, Judy and Nora began confessing everything on their own.
“It wasn’t us who wanted to bully you, it was all Arabella’s idea! She said you were trying to frame her, that you were jealous of her! I didn’t mean to hurt you, Miranda.”
“Yeah, it was Arabella! She led us and others to isolate you. Please, have mercy, it hurts, ah!”
Their pleas for mercy grew more desperate, their faces contorted with pain.
Miranda simply chewed her gum, calmly watching them writhe in agony with an indifferent expression.
Only when they seemed on the verge of breaking did Miranda speak. “What’s the deal with Cathy?”
Judy was quick to answer. “I don’t know exactly what happened with Cathy, but I know Arabella doesn’t like her!”
Nora hurried to add, “Yes! Arabella always encouraged others to bully her!”
Miranda frowned. “Why?”
Nora was struggling to form her words through the pain. “I don’t know. I just heard her say Cathy is a tramp, a siren.”
Judy sobbed, “Yeah, it was likely because Orion had water Cathy gave him during basketball, and then Cathy won first place in the dance competition. Arabella came second and was furious. We suspect Arabella is behind Cathy ending up in a vegetable.”
“Yeah, she hated Cathy so much; it must have been her!” Nora answered through gritted teeth.
Miranda continued to chew her gum. Judging by their reactions, it seemed they were unaware that Arabella was the one who made Cathy a vegetable.
“Arabella is a sociopath. If any girl gets close to her brothers, she isolates them and gets everyone else to bully them.”

“Exactly! If her brothers show any interest in a girl, she doubles down! She always tricks us into thinking she’ll introduce us to her brothers, but we know she never will!”
Miranda pulled out her phone, glancing up to ask, “And what about Sunny?”
At her question, the two girls‘ faces immediately paled.
