A Second Life, A New Power novel Chapter 220

After a brief pause, Luna said, "You'll be very capable if you can get Mr. Charles's help."

She realized that Xendaya, Seraphina, and Rowena were not sincerely apologizing to Demi, and she was disappointed!

"Ms. Lindell, can you ask Mr. Charles for help on our behalf?" Rowena looked at Luna pleadingly.

Then, Seraphina and Xendaya turned their gazes toward her.

Luna shook her head. "That isn't appropriate."

She had already given a reminder and done her duties.

Hearing that, the three girls looked very upset.

…

In the end, the doorbell rang, and the history teacher walked out of the door.

She looked at Ana and the others and asked, "What happened?"

"You all can go in now." Waving her hands, Luna left with the history teacher, whispering to the latter.

After looking at one another, Rowena, Seraphina, and Xendaya entered through the back door.

In the meantime, Charles seemed tired. His back was facing the window while he read "Brotherhood of the Iron Palm".

"Mr. Charles, Mr. Stronghold wants to expel us because we made some mistakes. Can you help us?" Rowena asked timidly.

"No," Charles replied firmly and coldly.

Unbeknownst to them, he was the one who wanted them expelled.

Hearing that, Rowena fell silent.

Seraphina hurriedly said, "Mr. Charles, we used to be classmates."

"Since you bullied others and broke the school rules, you have to accept the punishment. Whenever I was late, didn't I have to run around the track as well?" Though Charles spoke lazily, his tone was cold.

Xendaya kept quiet.

On the other hand, Rowena and the others couldn't betray their conscience and tell Demi that Ana had told them to deal with her.

"Our selfish desires blinded us. When we realized that Ana was unhappy because of you, we wanted to stand up for her and avenge her! We were too stupid and deserved it," Rowena answered.

"Oh."

Demi came to a realization and added, "I got it. But I don't accept your apology. There used to be a trending phrase on the internet—if an apology could help, why would we need the police? This is my answer."

As she spoke, Demi looked at her textbook again.

She was very busy, as there were many things she needed to learn.

Charles straightened up and looked at her.

"We have already admitted our mistakes. Why are you so ruthless?" Xendaya teared up, looking sad and furious at the same time.

It was as if Demi was the one who wronged her instead.
