Chapter 894
Chapter 894
It was always the words unspoken that hurt you the most. What occupied Katie's head all day long was Serena, her imaginary enemy, making her restlessly thinking about a way to cope with her.
Even if she was not as excellent as Serena and was not as good-looking as her, she should at least have noticed her, granted that she was always one place behind her on the test result each time.
Katie's mind was filled with only test results. How could she have known that Serena didn't care about the results at all?
As a girl from an ordinary family, what she had in mind was that she had to study hard to get into a good college so that she could graduate only to get into a good company with a good salary.
For Serena who was born in a rich and powerful family, she didn't need to think about her future at all.
Going to school was only what she had to do at her age, and she didn't have to get any achievements.
What Katie held most valuable and significant was nothing but a day-to-day life for Serena, hence her total negligence for Katie.
"I'm Katie Parry, you don't know me?" At this moment, Katie would rather Serena scold her. Even that would be better than the confused look on her face right now.
"Katie? You are not in my class and I don't think I've ever seen you. Why did you put the nail in my shoes?" Serena found it somewhat hard to believe that such a simple and plain-looking girl would've done that. She suspected she was simply a scapegoat.
Upon seeing Katie's outfit, she was different from Anabel and the others. She was wearing a very plain shirt and a pair of large glasses, the stereotype of a good girl.
It was really hard for Serena to associate her with a bad girl. The only thing Serena was reminded of upon looking at her was her reading a book by the lamp in the middle of the night.
"I'm jealous of you!" Katie gritted her teeth. She did not expect that the opponent that she had been thinking about for such a long time would not even know her at all.
At first, she thought that despite the fact she could not catch up with Serena for the time being, at least she could pose some sort of threat to her, giving her motivation.
Who knew that Serena did not care about her at all? It was like she was competing with the air after working so hard for so long.
"Why?" Serena felt puzzled. If it was Addilyn or Anabel, they might have a reason, because they had feelings for Avery.
But the girl in front of her didn't strike her as someone who would care about anything other than her studies at all.
Serena tried hard to search for whether she and had anything to do with her before. Or maybe she had done something to annoy her.
After thinking about it carefully for a long time, she still couldn't figure it out. "What on earth did I offend her for?"
"That's enough, Katie. Shut your mouth!" Thinking about what Adam and Tracey had done to him before, and the fact that the two of them cared so much about their own daughter, Tegan knew what would befall them if they were to find out about the truth.
"Dad, what's wrong with your face?" Katie was about to tell the truth when she found that Tegan's face was swollen.
"I'm fine. Go back to the sports meeting. I'll take care of other things." Tegan wanted to carry all the consequences alone.
Adam and Tracey were experienced people as well. Although Katie didn't look like a bad person, they couldn't let her off so easily if she really was the one who did it.
"It's not up to you to decide whether she leaves or not. Since she's your daughter, you should be very clear about the whole thing. Now, I advise you to start talking."
Katie met Adam's gaze and her heart was filled with fear. She didn't expect Serena's father to not be a janitor as was rumored to be.
"Serena, I'm just jealous of you. You can easily get the first in all classes without much effort every day."
"I noticed you at the first entrance exam of the school, and I swore that I would never suffer that humiliation ever again."
"I worked so hard, so hard that I didn't even know I could push myself to that limit. But I was still dozens of points behind you in the first monthly test. But I still told myself that all I had to do was to work a little bit harder."
"For the month that followed, I never went to bed before two in the morning. I was never good at Spanish so I worked my head off, determined to surpass you in mid-term." "But you still were better than me! I couldn't live with it! I worked so hard. I was studying every single second but it was still no use!"
"Why did I still lose, and lose so badly? If you work hard like me, I don't think it's a big deal."
"But you never do! You even have a boyfriend! How can someone like you be better than me? It's not fair!"
Serena was confused. She didn't know she had this so-called rival for so long at all.
"Just because my grades are better than yours, you're jealous of me?" Serena was completely dumbfounded. This was the first time she had heard of such a weird reason.
There were so many outstanding people in the world. If everyone was jealous of others because they were more excellent than themselves, what kind of life would they have to live?
"Yes, why is God so unfair? He has already given you a good face, why should he give you such a smart brain?
I've worked very hard, and you've defeated everything I worked for effortlessly. I've been living under your shadow all the time.
Every time I wanted to have a good rest, I would be wakened up by the fear that you would be working on your studies.
I've been going crazy these days. Anabel is my cousin. I saw her hair cut like that by you.
Whether it is for her or myself, I had to take it out on you. I knew you signed up for the marathon so I wanted to get back at you with the nail. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
But I didn't know Avery was really your boyfriend and how would I know that he'd question every girl that appeared in the footage on by one?
I was terrified that he would find out that it was me who did it. I could only beg my father to get you out of the school so that this could be over.
I didn't expect that it would be so serious that even your parents would be summoned here."
Serena looked at the little girl. Her seemingly simple face actually contained such an evil soul.
Just because she was better than her, she had to do such a thing to her. Serena's view of the world was shocked by how low a human being could stoop to again.
"It was Katie who did it! God! Can you believe it?"
"Of course not. How could you expect someone that innocent-looking to have done such a thing? She must have mustered the courage to do that just because her dad's the director."
"I can't believe I thought Serena was the bad person before. She must have suffered a lot."
Katie's words were broadcast through the radio, which was still one, to the whole school, revealing the truth of what had happened to every student.
It turned out that Serena was so pitiful.
