Chapter 106 

Anna was detained. 

Inside the auditorium, Cherise finally walked slowly down from the stage. 

Shirley saw Cherise coming down and ran over to her. 

Looking seemingly upset, Shirley said, “Cherise, won’t you forgive Anna? She’s just too young and naive. 

“She’s the Sanders family’s only daughter. If she gets arrested, imagine how heartbroken her parents would be. Shirley said. and started sobbing again. 

Some of the students began to whisper among themselves. 

Someone commented, “Shirley truly has a beautiful heart to match her looks. Now, she’s still pleading with Ms. Leach on Anna’s behalf.” 

Another one said, “She’s always been so close with Anna. I can’t believe Shirley didn’t know about all this.” 

“Maybe she didn’t. You could tell from Shirley’s expression when everything was exposed earlier, remarked a male student. 

A female student expressed, “Anna isn’t naive at all! Ms. Leach is just 20 years old, and the online ridicule wasn’t targeted at Shirley, so she didn’t care about how much Ms. Leach has suffered. 

That’s why you guys have trouble reading the room. Shirley’s clearly manipulative. She studies art, right? What is she best at? It’s obvious.” 

Another student stated, “Well, let’s just hear what Ms. Leach has to say!” 

Cherise descended, her already tall stature further accentuated by the high heels, which added to her imposing presence. 

Staring down at Shirley, Cherise said, “Quite a performance!” 

Seeing Shirley frozen in place, Cherise added coldly, “Don’t preach goodness unless you’ve experienced the same struggles 

as others!” 

After speaking, Cherise looked towards the Arts Department and said, “Don’t forget, you all owe me an apology and a ten- lap run around the track. 

Shirley quickly chimed in, “Cherise, that was just a bet between you and Anna. The rest of us didn’t agree to it. How about letting it go? 

Cherise scoffed, “With so many of you there, not a single one wanted to quit. Now you’re just looking for excuses, aren’t you? 

“I mean, isn’t that behavior a bit too disgusting, huh?” 

Shirley’s lips twitched, and she thought, As sharp–tongued as ever! 

The next moment, someone from the Arts Department stood up and said, “Ms. Leach, we really owe you an apology. We shouldn’t have believed the rumors and slandered you. I realized today just how foolish we were, and I apologize to you” 

After that, the rest of the students in the Arts Department stood up as well. 

Shirley’s eyes widened, her face turning pale with disbelief.

But with all of Betrico University’s faculty and students present, Shirley had no choice but to face Cherise as w

“We’re sorry, Ms. Leacht Over a hundred students from the Arts Department bowed in apology

Cherise showed little change in expression, keeping her cool demeanor as she said, “T’ll accept the apology. Think before you act in the future. 

“Go for a run, and don’t even think about skipping a lap. I hope the other students can help me keep an eye on you” 

After that, Cherise left the auditorium without a backward glance 

Shirley remained there, gritting her teeth in frustration. 

Anna’s parents, Jake Sanders and Luna Sanders, rushed to the Chambers residence after learning that Anna had been taken away by the police. 

Luna cried anxiously to Jemma, “Jemma, Anna is our only daughter, and you watched her grow up. We couldn’t bear to see even a single hair on her head come to harm, and now she’s been caught. What should we do?” 

Jake chimed in. “Jemma, I’m begging you. She’s so young. How can she handle such hardship?” 

Jemma was worried too,ince Anna was her own niece, whom she’d watched grow up. 

But no matter how much Henry tried to pull strings, the law enforcement just wouldn’t relent, let alone release Anna. 

After a while, they heard a noise and saw Henry and Jeffrey walking in, and quickly went up to greet them.
