Chapter 83: Chapter 83: You're Really Not Cut Out to be a Student 

Lily returned to the classroom with a clouded expression. Her somber demeanor deterred her classmates from approaching her with questions. 

"What did Mr. Berwick want with you?" Linda asked with genuine concern. 

"Nothing!" Lily snapped, her current mood making her voice particularly harsh. 

Linda frowned, suppressing her own discomfort, "Who upset you?" 

"It was that wretch!" Lily spat out, her teeth gritted in anger. 

"Who?" Linda questioned. 

Lily opened her mouth, wanting to vent her anger, but held back. She could already imagine the judging stares she'd get from the other students once they found out the truth.

For a while, she didn't dare to speak.

She hesitated, contemplating the idea of confiding in her dad, hoping he might help her skirt the repercussions. 

Ben had wanted to confront Lily when he returned to the classroom. However, seeing Linda gave him pause. After all, Linda, his crush, was Lily's sister.
