The Mafia Heiress's Comeback: She's More Than You Think novel Chapter 267

Chapter 267 Ignorance

Adolescence was a time when inquisitiveness flourished, especially among young minds intrigued by the opposite sex. Among them, Maren stood out–striking beyond messure, edlipsing both her peers and the

teachers.

The boys froze in awe, momentarily spellbound Bot Maren remained composed. The confidant bear the sight of Isla being bullied.

Without hesitation, she raised her leg and unleashed four rapid strikes

The quartet of bullies hit the dirt, their bodies twisting midair from the sheer impact of her assault.

“Maren! Violence isn’t the answer!” Olivia exclaimed, rushing over.

The uproar quickly attracted a growing crowd.

“Isn’t that Colt Davidson? The one who’s always putting on airs and acting like he’s some big deal with his crew? He’s got a whole entourage, doesn’t he?”

“Yeah. Why is he flat on the ground now, stomped by a girl?”

“Dang, don’t you think she’s got serious style?”

“Style, yes–but have you seen her face? She’s stunning, Honestly, she outshines even our favorite teacher

A crowd of students had rushed over to witness the scene, most of the boys spellbound by Maren’s

commanding presence.

Even the girls couldn’t help but shriek, their voices tinged with admiration and envy.

“Maren!” Isla cried, hurrying to her side the moment she caught sight of Maren

Despite the pain, Isla hadn’t shed a single tear.

“If you’ve been having trouble at school, Isla, why keep it quiet? Why not go to the staff? Where is Stormclaw? Does he know?” Maren’s voice burned with anger.

She had only dropped by the school on a whim and ended up stumbling onto this scene.

What else had Isla endured when no one was watching?

“It’s not like that. It’s just that I arrived too suddenly, and some don’t like me,” Isla explained.

“I can confirm that. These jerks are just targeting her because she’s new,” said the short–haired girl

So they bullied Isla just because she was new?

“Why would they target newcomers like this?” Maren asked, eyes narrowed.

The short–haired girl’s voice was laced with contempt. “Their families made big donations so that they could

study here. And when Isla joined the school, they thought it was unfair that her family didn’t have to donate.”

“And because Isla keeps a low profile and doesn’t show off flashy brands, they figured she was from a humble ground and was an easy target?” Maren asked.

“Bingo,” the girl answered, nodding vigorously.

This was the kind of world they lived in—where if you didn’t flaunt your power, people assumed you had none.

Well then, Maren figured it was time someone set the record straight.

“Ow! You lunatic! You actually hit me? Do you have any clue who I am?”

Colt Davidson, the one leading the group, hollered as he clambered back to his feet, stunned by Maren’s raw

force.

He’d actually thought she was kind of impressive–until her foot landed squarely in his chest.

The other three boys were fuming with anger too.

They formed a circle around Maren, tension rising.

“Are they going to fight? Four guys on one girl? Isn’t that overkill?”

“Relax. That woman’s no pushover!”

A larger crowd was forming, mostly students who had been doing P.E.

“I’ll back you up!” the short–haired girl offered eagerly, already stepping forward with fire in her eyes.

Maren hadn’t expected it. The girl struck her as dependable. She appreciated her loyal to friends, grasping Isla’s reason for forming a bond with her.

“No need for that. Just stay put and enjoy the show while I teach them a lesson,” Maren told the girl, her tone

gentle.

“Seriously? But there are four of them.”

She feared Maren might be outmatched–both in sheer numbers and the natural advantage the boys had in terms of strength.

“Relax, Adela. Maren’s no pushover.”

No one understood Maren’s capabilities more than Isla. Within the Sovereign Underworld, her name had once stirred anxiety in countless hearts.

Being near Maren had always made Isla feel deeply protected.

In the end, the girl, Adela Moore, placed her trust in it.

She respected Isla’s sincerity and modesty; those traits had been the foundation of their friendship. If Isla claimed Maren was powerful, then there had to be truth to it.

“Hey! I’m talking to you! Are you even aware of who I am? You’re completely brushing me off!”

Colt was livid that Maren was conversing with someone else, saying she was going to teach them a lesson.

At that age, adolescents were particularly touchy about being disrespected. He couldn’t remember ever being
