Chapter 637
He looked at Arabella, hoping she could help.
Romeo immediately asked, “Isn’t my fiancée beautiful?”
Did he even dare to look?
“Is my sister someone you can just stare at?”
Jerome screamed, “Help! Can someone save me?”
Then he finally understood why Lieutenant Colonel Capra personally told him to look after Arabella and stressed that he should take good care of her.
He couldn’t offend either the McMillian family or the Collins family.
Just as Arabella was about to speak, one of Chasel’s men recognized Jerome and spoke up for him, “Sir, he’s my friend. He’s gay and has a partner! He wouldn’t have any inappropriate thoughts about Arabella!”
Jerome was a bit confused.
Chasel clearly didn’t believe it. His gaze at Jerome turned even colder. “He’s got a partner and is still holding his sister’s arm?” he thought.
He, as a brother, never even touched his sister’s arm! What gave that instructor the right?
“Sir, Arabella is his student. If something happens, he needs to be responsible. That’s why he impulsively grabbed her arm,” Chasel’s man explained.
After saying that, he looked at Jerome and said, “Your turn! You can’t just let me do all the talking!”
Jerome took over the conversation and replied, “Yes, I was too anxious and didn’t control myself properly.”
While they were talking, Belinda and Noreen were still bowing,
Noreen’s friends were as anxious as ants on a hot pan. They regretted hanging out with Noreen. They thought her family had some influence and was connected to the McMillian family, which would give them some status in Summerfield. They never expected their relationship to be as thin as paper!
Noreen had sincerely apologized, but Arabella didn’t forgive her. She said opportunities only come once or twice. Once they’re gone, they’re gone. What were they supposed to do?
If Arabella didn’t forgive them, they’d be expelled.
No way!
They were reluctant to leave Westerly College. They didn’t want their parents to be involved either, so they apologized like Belinda, one by one, in a humble manner. Just then, another person arrived.
“We have finished the withdrawal procedures!” The director came over with the new documents, appearing more confident. As long as Belinda quickly took Noreen/ and left, that matter could be over, and he wouldn’t be involved.
Belinda took the withdrawal documents and asked in a low voice, “Mr. Collins, now that the procedures are done, can I take Noreen home and teach her a lesson?” Only then did Louisa seem to notice her, glancing at her waist. “Why are you always bending over? You’re not young anymore; it’s not good if you accidentally twist something.”
Belinda knew Louisa was deliberately making her bend over, but she didn’t dare say anything.
“I feel very ashamed for what my daughter has done. How can I have the face to stand up?”
“Alright, since my daughter won’t pursue this anymore, you can go home.”
Upon hearing that, Belinda quickly bowed to Arabella and apologized again before standing up straight and leaving with Noreen.
At that point, Noreen’s friends came forward to apologize to Arabella individually.
Considering that Noreen was the one who drugged the drink, Arabella didn’t make it hard for them. However, Kelly sternly warned them that if they dared to stir up trouble in the future, their fate would be worse than Noreen’s!
The girls hadn’t seen such a spectacle before and nodded quickly, their faces full of gratitude.
Kelly asked them to keep that a secret and not leak any information about that day. The girls hurriedly agreed.
Oh my, they wouldn’t dare talk about such an embarrassing incident.
