Crowds gathered, and as they witnessed Nola's pale, tear- streaked face, their astonishment was palpable.
Influencers fanned the flames online, transforming the brewing anger into a fiery protest against Harlee, even suggesting it was a matter of national concern.
This was the first tin Nola's life that she had been made a spectacle of. Several times, she nearly rose to leave, but she steeled herself to endure. Surviving today meant not only securing the coveted position but also turning Harlee into a public adversary. Harlee would suffer for her arrogance.

"Fleming, something's happened! The whole of Mechuique is lashing out at Harlee online!" The trending topic dominating every major Mechuique online platform was Harlee forcing Nola to kneel. The comment section was filled with brutal and vicious remarks.
Elva was stunned. Never in her wildest dreams had she imagined that someone as prideful as Nola would actually lower herself like that, kneeling in apology to Harlee. Oh gosh. What in the world had happened? She hadn't seen Harlee for a day, but Harlee had managed to stir up something this explosive! Elva was concerned.

He was bound to cause trouble for Harlee. Moreover, the entire Mechuique intewas in an uproar, cursing Harlee and even turning it into a diplomatic issue. Would Mogluylia's government step in and make things even harder for her? "What do we do, Fleming? What should we do now?” Elva's mind was a complete blank. The only thing she knew for sure was that she had to protect Harlee. However, she didn't know what to do.
