Chapter 1537
Fiona shut the chat window and instantly saw a message from Allen, but she wasn't in the mood to reply. Allen
was probably itching to figure out who she was, so why stir the pot?
The pings kept coming through the night, and by the tFiona got to school the next morning, she was running
on fumes. Sleeping in a new place always threw her off.
As she plopped into her seat, she caught sight of Jand her crew shooting daggers her way. No need to play
detective-Jwas clearly fuming about what had gone down the night before.
"Fiona's got a real stroke of luck!" Jhissed, practically shaking with rage. Her eyes were filled with such
venom, it looked like she wanted to rip Fiona apart.
"Janet, you wouldn't believe Fiona's connections!" a girl leaned in, whispering conspiratorially. "Did you catch the
news?"

Jblinked, clearly baffled. "What news?"
She'd been dragged back by sthugs last night, expecting to find Fiona in a bad way. Instead, those same
thugs had turned on her.
The slap had left her ears buzzing, and her stomach was still sore from the kicks. If it wasn't for Fiona, she
wouldn't be nursing these bruises. She couldn't wrap her head around how Fiona had managed to reverse the
situation so drastically. That girl was trouble!
"Janet, take a look at this."
Just then, Patricia sauntered in late with another girl, both shivering and sneezing. They beelined straight for
Fiona. With a loud thump, they dropped two heavy books on her.
Luckily, Fiona lifted her head just in time, and the books merely brushed past her. Otherwise, they'd have given
her a real headache.
"What's your problem?" Fiona shot Patricia a sharp glare. "Didn't get enough of a beatdown?"
"Fiona, you've got snerve!"
Patricia jabbed a finger at her,
gearing up to smack her. "If you
hadn't gone nuts last night, |
wouldn't have ended up on a soaked
bed."
Fiona just shrugged it off. They brought it on themselves, and now they wanted to pin it on her? Ridiculous!
Can't solve a problem? Blgravity, right?
"Fiona, don't get too cocky. Someday, you'll be at my mercy, and you'll regret it!"
"Oh, you're dreaming. I'm not gonna end up in your hands. I'm not into women." Fiona smirked, turning back to
her game.
Yel?
"So desperate for a guy, huh, Fiona?" Patricia sneered, her face softening with a mischievous glint. "You sneaked
out for a secret rendezvous last night, didn't you?"
Fiona paused her gfor a beat. A secret meet-up with a lover? Jackson? The thought tickled her. She saw
Jackson more as a brother, though A lover at his age? Maybe a bit much, but not entirely off the table.
QUMS
Spotting Fiona's little grin, Patricia pounced, "So it was a secret fling! Look at you, pretending to be all innocent!"
The next second, Fiona's hand whipped out, landing a crisp slap on Patricia's cheek.
