Lina was dumbstruck, freezing with the lollipop in her mouth for a long time.
Dave continued. “I heard he was recently released. They say he’s skilled in combat. Regular thugs can’t match him,
and he’s doing a great job managing the truck. All the merchandise he delivered has been in good condition.
“But he’s always ignoring people! Whenever someone tries to talk to him, he ignores them, so eventually, people
stop trying. They say he’s either a fool or a pervert!”
He chuckled and added, “Oh, and his name is quite interesting too. It’s Zeke Mason!”
She was shocked. “What?”
“No, no… Zeke Hamerton!”
“Zeke Hamerton…”
Lina shrugged and forgot about the name after finishing the lollipop.
…
It was considered peaceful in school for the next few days.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough she would see Violet every day, they would not stir things up.
It was not the first time there was school violence. The school would side with the students with prominent
backgrounds most of the time. As long as nobody was severely hurt, everyone would just turn a blind eye.
Lina knew that. Knowing that it was futile, even if she told anyone about that, she chose silence.
She was not giving in but waiting for her opportunity.
It was just that Violet got to her before her opportunity came.
It happened at the school party.
Lina did not want to attend, but the counselor had told her that it was mandatory. She sat quietly in a corner when
she arrived.
Violet was dressed up in an exaggerated manner and approached her with a glass of wine.
She said she was apologizing for her bad behavior that day, but Lina merely gave her shoulder. As the saying went:
“One who offers unsolicited hospitality must be harboring evil intentions.”
Lina was sure that something was wrong with the wine.
Violet was pretentious, saying, “Lina, we’re fellow students. Are you really not accepting my apology?”
“Why would you hit me if you’re sincere about apologizing? How about I hit you back?” retorted Lina.
“You…”
Lina scoffed. The venue was a little warm, so she turned around to leave to get fresh air.
Violet stared at her back fiercely.
She had other ways to fight her if she did not want to drink the wine!
Lina stood in the courtyard. Everyone was at the party, so it was quite empty out there. She looked up to the night
sky, happy to have a sky full of stars to be her company.
However, she did not notice the few people approaching her. They had covered her mouth and nose from behind
by the time she found out!
Lina fought with all her strength but soon felt herself slipping into unconsciousness. It felt as if her blood was being
cut off, causing her limbs to go numb. She closed her eyes, surrendering to the fading of her senses.
When she finally regained consciousness, she found herself lying on something soft.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSurrounded by darkness, Lina struggled in vain to move her limbs, but they remained immobilized. A desperate
urge to scream welled up within her, yet she could not open her mouth, stifling any sound that tried to escape her
throat.
At that moment, it felt as if her very soul had departed from her body.
Subsequently, she heard Violet’s shrill and evil voice. “Get up and hit me, b*tch!”
A loud slap echoed!
Upon sensing the pain, Lina’s rage was like a balloon blowing up her heart.
“You’re always pissing me off, b*tch! We must teach her a lesson today!
“You, go get Zeke here!”
“What? Miss—”
“Ha, wasn’t that fool in prison before?” Violet laughed hysterically, “If this b*tch found out that he slept with her… I
wonder how she would feel! Hahaha!
“Oh yeah, you guys!” She added, “None of you should leave. Stay here and film that fool having a good time with
her. You hear me?”
