Chapter 144 

“If you’re unhappy with how I’ve handled this, you’re welcome to bring it to the principal,” Chara said calmly. 

“But let me warn you. Right now, this is nothing more than a small conflict between two kids. If you choose to escalate this into a case of fighting and demanding compensation, the consequences will be entirely different. 

“If we proceed according to official procedures, Harvey was face a disciplinary action from the school. This record will remain in his permanent file. Do you understand what that 

a disciplinary record made her 

Her words stunned Susan. She hadn’t gone to school much herself and didn’t know how these things worked. Hearing that Harvey might get a di hesitate. 

But she still felt aggrieved. She glared at Clara as she snapped, “How dare you threaten me! Believe it or not, I’ll make sure you can’t stay in this school” 

“Be my guest,” Clara replied indifferently 

Fed up with her unreasonable behavior, dara brushed past her and walked straight toward the school gates. 

“Hey, don’t go!” Susan tried to stop her. 

Harvey, sensing that Clara was truly angry this time, quickly pulled Susan back. He worried things would escalate further. 

As Clara stepped out of the school gates, she could still hear faint sounds of arguing behind her. She didn’t look back, giving them no chance to pursue her further. 

Dusk had settled, and the bicycle shed was nearly empty, leaving only her lone bike. She pulled it out and mounted it. As she did, she noticed a woman’s hurried silhouette disappearing down a small path nearby. She didn’t give it much thought. 

The road back was deserted. The cold winter wind stung her face, and ahead stretched a long downhill path flanked by open fields on either side. 

At the bottom of the slope, on the right hand side, was a man–made fish pond dug to raise fish 

As she coasted down the slope, the bike’s speed picked up. She instinctively squeezed the brake lever but suddenly realized it was jammed and wouldn’t budge. 

In that instant, a flash of unease streaked through her heart. 

Behind her, blinding headlights pierced the darkness. She glanced back, but the blinding headlights forced her to squint in pain. She couldn’t make out the car’s shape. All she could tell was that it was spending straight toward her. 

Alarmed, she quickly turned her head forward, but her eyes stung from the brightness, and tears welled up uncontrollably. Before she could recover, the car closed in on her, deliberately forcing her toward the edge of the road. 

Achran down her spine. 

He bike suddenly jolted, as if it had run over something Losing control, it veered uncontrollably toward the pond at the bottom of the slope.
