It was near impossible for Janet to apologize. Meanwhile, Janet raised her eyebrows at Emily as if she was up to something; this confused Emily even more. As such, Emily decided that she had to find out why Janet was here. For one, she might even be here to really offer her apology. At this point, Emily slowly got up.
“Emily?” Madeleine grabbed Emily’s hand. “What are you doing?”
“Janet is here to look for me!” Emily grinned mockingly as she said this—loud enough for everyone in the classroom to hear. It was indeed her intention that everyone would hear that so they would know that Janet came on her own volition to offer her an apology.
Just as they heard that, a discussion began to take place. “Emily, are you serious? She’s so desperate; she could do anything to you.”
“That’s right. Don’t go. It’s better to stay safe.”
“Janet is such a b*tch. She even has the audacity to come here and pick a fight with Emily.”
“Fortunately we weren’t friends when she was still in Class A. Otherwise, I would’ve regretted being her friend. It’s so embarrassing.”
“Emily, you should record your conversation later. If anything happens, we’ll definitely seek justice for you from the school.”
At this point, Emily cracked an understanding smile. “Don’t worry, guys. I’ll stay safe! Please don’t look at Janet any differently. She’ll change for the better.” The moment she uttered these words, her classmates began to sigh.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Why are you still defending her?”
“Emily, Janet’s completely hopeless. Would you please stop defending her?”
“Yeah. You are such a saint for defending her right now.”
“Oh, guys, stop it.” Emily let out a gentle smile before heading outside the classroom while the rest of the classmates broke out in a cold sweat as they watched her go. After coming to the hallway, Emily realized that it was rather empty. Perhaps it was the perfect opportunity for her to confront Janet.
“What’s the matter?” Emily sounded rather disgusted and contemptuous.
Janet responded, “Should we go somewhere else?
Emily’s countenance turned slightly gloomy as she let out a sarcastic smile and looked somewhat disgusted. “Oh, you have something to say to me?” It looks like public pressure has really defeated Janet for her to come here and apologize to me. If I can see her humble herself and speak to me, that’d be exhilarating. She’s always been arrogant and has never once respected anyone.
At this point, Janet looked somewhat embarrassed and downcast as she forced a smile. “Uh-huh. I do.”
“You can just say it here.” Emily crossed her arms as she stared at Janet delightfully. Since they were not too far away from Class A, the entire classroom could hear what Janet would say as long as she spoke up just a little. In fact, Emily did want everyone in her class to see how Janet would lower herself and beg her. That would be a fascinating scene to watch.
At this point, Emily’s sense of vanity began to increase.
“Are you sure?” Janet’s voice was unemotional and she sounded like nothing was unusual. Besides, she even had a hateful look in her eyes as if she was not happy with this request. Of course, for someone as proud as her, she would never want anyone to see her lower herself.
Emily sneered. “You aren’t happy with that? Or is there something that can’t be heard by others?”
Janet squinted her phoenix eyes and gave Emily a glance before responding calmly, “It’s up to you whether or not you want to come with me.” As she finished, she left with hands in her pockets. She reckoned that she had given Emily ample opportunity, but who knew that the latter didn’t know what was best for her. She’s such a drama queen.
Emily’s countenance dropped as she watched Janet walk away. You b*tch. What kind of attitude is that in giving an apology?
Having said that, there was no way Emily would pass this up. She had to witness how Janet would lower herself and apologize to her.
