All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 538 Not Powerful Enough

Catherine’s admission was direct, and not only Isabella but even Beatrice herself was

stunned.

Once Beatrice realized what had happened, she felt secretly delighted. She had thought

that Catherine was a powerful figure, but it turned out Catherine was just a paper tiger.

If it were Beatrice, she would never say it out loud. In this world, everyone likes to

sympathize with the weak. Telling the truth wasn’t necessarily a good thing to do.

Beatrice sniffled and held Isabella’s hand, knowing that Isabella would definitely help her.

“Bella, I studied so hard to get into Styre University. If I’m forced to drop out, my life will

be ruined!”

Isabella understood what Beatrice meant and sympathized with her plight. She knew how

difficult it was to get into Styre University. During Isabella’s three years of high school, she

didn’t even take a single weekend off, all for the sake of successfully getting into Styre

University.

Earlier, Isabella was afraid of falsely accusing Catherine, not daring to speak up. But now

that Catherine had admitted it herself, she naturally had to stand up for Beatrice.

To avoid conflict, Isabella tried to maintain a friendly attitude toward Catherine.

“Catherine, we’re classmates and roommates. That’s fate. I know Beatrice was in the

wrong, but expulsion is a bit too severe. How about we find a different form of

punishment, like having Beatrice sincerely apologize to you?”

Catherine glanced at Isabella. Even though Catherine hadn’t done anything, Isabella felt

an immense sense of shame. Isabella silently lowered her head, not daring to meet

Catherine’s eyes. Then, she discreetly tugged on Amelia’s arm, hoping Amelia would

speak up.

Amelia had a better relationship with Catherine than Isabella did, so maybe Catherine

would listen to her.

Although Amelia also thought that Catherine’s demands were a bit excessive, her principle

had always been “Do not advise others on what they haven’t experienced themselves.”

She remained silent and chose to be a bystander, not getting involved.

Sensing Amelia’s indifferent attitude, Isabella had no choice but to continue persuading

Catherine.

“Catherine, we’re classmates after all.

If you’re not satisfied with an apology, you can make other requests.”

Isabella, on the surface, was known for her kindness, but to put it bluntly, she couldn’t

distinguish right from wrong. She tended to believe whatever people said, but deep down,

she wasn’t a bad person.

“Isabella, did Beatrice tell you why her parents came to school today?”

Isabella was taken aback and looked at Catherine in surprise. “You mean Beatrice’s

parents came to school?”

“Humph.” Catherine sneered. “It seems that Beatrice has been keeping a lot from you. Her

parents came to school today not only to demand a public apology from me but also to

persuade the director to expel me.”

If it weren’t for Catherine having a more powerful background, she would be the one

facing expulsion today, not Beatrice.

Isabella was shocked. Beatrice indeed hadn’t mentioned this to her. Beatrice only said that

Catherine’s apology wasn’t sincere and that she had brought this matter to the attention

of the president. She also mentioned that Catherine had a capable boyfriend who forced

her to drop out and made her parents beg for mercy.

However, Beatrice didn’t mention that she had asked her parents to come to school first to

teach Catherine a lesson and force Catherine to drop out.

Amelia, upon hearing what Catherine said, secretly felt relieved that she hadn’t interfered.

Otherwise, she would have been embarrassed now.

Facing Beatrice’s hypocritical behavior, Amelia couldn’t help but comment in a sarcastic

tone, “I thought she was so pitiful, but it turns out she’s only pitiful because her

background isn’t powerful enough! The first thing she did after making a mistake was ask

her parents for help. How childish! And the most embarrassing part is that her parents are

not powerful enough, so she ended up begging for mercy!”

Although Amelia didn’t mention any names, there were only four people in the room. Who

else could she be referring to?

Beatrice couldn’t sit still anymore. She stood up abruptly, glaring at Amelia and scolding

her loudly.

“Amelia, what the hell is wrong with you? Why do you have to slander me like this? I didn’t

offend you. Why are you mocking me?”

“Hmph!” Amelia coldly snorted in disdain. “Then why did you ask me for help? Just a

moment ago, you sat there crying, begging us to intercede with Catherine on your behalf. I

didn’t expect that you were the real culprit!”

Beatrice, despite her arrogance, was left speechless. Amelia’s retorts made her face turn

red. She decided not to argue with Amelia. Instead, she focused her gaze on Catherine.

“Catherine, how do you plan to resolve this matter? State your conditions, and I will agree

to them. But you have to guarantee that I won’t be expelled, and that my grandfather

won’t find out about this.”

Catherine sat there, her eyes slightly raised, calmly assessing Beatrice. She couldn’t

understand what was wrong with Beatrice. How could Beatrice be so foolish?

At this point, Beatrice still maintained her arrogant attitude, indicating that she hadn’t

learned her lesson yet. Catherine couldn’t be bothered to argue with her. “You’re not even

worthy of negotiating with me.”

After saying that, Catherine stood up and pushed the chair to its original position. She had

thought there would be an interesting twist of events, but it turned out that none of them

were worth her time.

Seeing that Catherine didn’t fall for her tactics and even ignored her, Beatrice became

desperate and started crying again.

“Catherine, why are you so heartless? What can make you satisfied? My death?”

Catherine opened the window, revealing her beautiful face, her gaze calmly fixed on

Beatrice.

“If you want to kill yourself, go somewhere else. Don’t disturb our sleep.”

She spoke in the calmest tone, uttering the harshest words.

Someone like Beatrice would never actually commit suicide. At most, she would use it as a

means to threaten others and achieve her goals.

Even if Beatrice did try to kill herself, Catherine wasn’t afraid. Catherine was naturally

cold-hearted, and even her own family couldn’t sway her, let alone a stranger like Beatrice

who had framed her.

Seeing that Catherine remained unmoved, Beatrice became truly desperate. Her father

had made it clear that if this matter reached Conor’s ears, he would disown her and kick

her out of the house.

In her panic, Beatrice thought of someone who might be able to help her overcome this

difficult situation.
