30 Chapter Thirteen: Dropping Out
Jessi Whitman looked truly pitiful right now, stirring compassion in the people around her.
“She’s so vicious! She dared to attack in front of so many people, when alone, would she
kill someone?!”
“No, I’m going to report this to the school. I demand that she be expelled!”
“Expulsion is a must!”
Just as the crowd was calling in unison to kick Xaviera Evans out of the school, a male
voice came from the doorway…
“Who are you planning to expel?”
The crowd turned around instinctively and immediately found their backbone upon seeing
who
the speaker was.
“President, you must stand up for Jessi!”
Gaby Rome, the president of the student council, the most handsome guy of Libanan
University, and also the only son of a school trustee, held an
30 Chapter Thirteen: Dropping Out
extraordinarily high status at Libanan University.
Gaby Rome looked directly at Xaviera Evans: “Evans…I mean Xaviera, what happened?”
He had a harmless looking face, although he was a year older than Xaviera, he looked like
a younger brother.
Someone stood up to explain: “President, this Xaviera Evans attacked Jessi Whitman
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbackstage and now Jessi can’t move. Mag Evans just called an ambulance. Now, we all
protest and refuse to be in the same school as Xaviera. People who freely attack other
students are too terrifying.”
“Oh? Attacking for no reason?”
Gaby Rome glanced at Jessi Whitman lying on the ground and then at the calm Xaviera.
Suddenly, he spoke: “Xaviera, aren’t you going to explain?”
Xaviera rolled her eyes: “Are you blind? Look at what’s in her hand.”
“Alright, I will take a look!”
Gaby Rome friskily trotted over and crouched down by Jessi Whitman. Upon hearing
Xaviera’s words, Jessi

clearly panicked and began looking for a place to hide something.
Gaby Rome didn’t entertain her and spread her hand open with no gentlemanly manner,
revealing a sharp little blade used by Design College students to cut threads from
clothing.
Gaby Rome’s face suddenly dropped, his round eyes full of coldness: “Jessi Whitman, may
I ask what this is?”
The students around him were stunned.
They looked at Jessi and then at Xaviera, a clever student hesitated a bit and said: “I
remember that Jessi
was going to scratch Xaviera’s face with this exact hand, right?”
That attack was directed towards Xaviera’s face.
If Jessi’s hand, with a blade in it, would have landed on Xaviera’s face…just thinking about
that scene, the
students present couldn’t help but shiver.
Jessi intended to disfigure Xaviera!
“No, no…I didn’t…”

Jessi’s defense was rather weak.
Gaby Rome dusted off his pants and got up: “Guards, Jessi Whitman intentionally tried to
intentionally harm a fellow student during school hours. The severity of her actions calls
for expulsion as a warning to others; all students should abide by the law and the school
rules, and should not do anything that would shame Libanan University or violate its
rules.”
Hearing this, Jessi completely broke down.
“No, no, no, you can’t!”
“Mag, Mag, save me! I don’t want to be expelled!” Unfortunately, her struggle was futile in
the hands of the security guards, and she was soon dragged away. Gaby Rome secretly
observed Xaviera’s expression, but her face had remained expressionless all this while, he
couldn’t tell whether she was satisfied or not.
Mag watched as Jessi was taken away, her red eyes welling up as she tried to intercede:
“Gaby, Queena didn’t mean to, expulsion is too harsh. Could you…”
“Wait a minute, who are you calling Gaby? I don’t know you that well!”

Gaby Rome took a step back, hiding behind Xaviera with righteous words: “And you’re
saying that Jessi didn’t do it on purpose? Did the blade grow legs and walk into her hand?
Also, if I recall correctly, Xaviera is your family member, she’s your sister. Jessi almost
ruined your sister’s face, but you’re not worried for your sister, instead, you’re concerned
about the
person who almost hurt your sister. What kind of logic is that?”
Caught off guard, Mag responded: “But Xaviera wasn’t injured, right?”
Gaby Rome chuckled: “That’s an interesting
statement.”
Mag also realized that what she had just said was somewhat inappropriate, so she quickly
tried to make up for it: “I just think it’s too cruel for Jessi. Being expelled from Libanan
University, her life will be
ruined…”
Finished speaking, she pleaded towards Xaviera:
“Sister, can I apologize on behalf of Jessi? Could you ask Gaby…I mean, could you ask the
president to revoke Jessi’s punishment?”

Xaviera lazily adjusted the fishtail braid on her chest:”
Get Gaby Rome to revoke the punishment? Do you think I, a country bumpkin, can do
that?”
Gaby Rome:“??”
A country bumpkin?
Has his brother Evans‘ taste changed? How come he likes such quirky nicknames?
But… even a country bumpkin can command him!
As long as Evans gave the order, he would immediately call Jessi back!
