Chapter 81
"What do you mean?" Natalie sounded puzzled.
She didn't understand why Tobias would mention her sister.
"Those photos, she forged them," Tobias' tone was indifferent.
Natalie's hand froze with her phone still in her hand.
She couldn't believe that Queenie was the culprit. Although she had her suspicions at first, she was still disappointed when she knew that Queenie was indeed guilty.
She had created those photos to frame her, and then she had sent a man to r*pe her. Queenie wanted to ruin her life.
"I'm going to get even with her!" Natalie suddenly declared after a short silence. She was about to hang up the phone.
Natalie was never the type to stir up trouble, but it did not mean that she was afraid of doing so. If Queenie played tricks behind her back, she would never spare Queenie.
"Wait." Tobias suddenly replied in a calm tone, "How are you planning to get even with her? Are you going to have a feud with her like the Desperate Housewives or have a joust one on one?"
Natalie was stupefied.
"You don't have to look for her yourself. As long as I'm here, you have nothing to worry about." Tobias' said composedly, with a kind of calming force. "I will help you."
A faint warmth flowed into Natalie's heart, slowly permeating through her body.
Back when she was bullied as a child, she always endured it and hid under her quilt to sob in secret.
As she grew older, she learned how to stand up for herself and fight back, but her efforts were mostly futile.
For example, in the Godfrey family, Natalie would stand up for herself when Queenie scolded her. After that, Madison and Brayden would join the bullying, turning it into a fight of three against one.
No matter how capable Natalie was, she would not be able to defeat three people.
Even if she tried to fight back, she would always end up getting beaten into a pulp.
But now, someone told her that if she faced any struggles, she no longer had to go through it alone. He would be there to help her.
She didn't know why, but Natalie suddenly wanted to set her emotions free as her eyes turned red subconsciously.
Even she didn't know what was going on. This man's words had her choked up.
"I'll hang up first. Remember that I'm always here, Natalie." Tobias hung up.
When she heard a beeping tone, indicating the other end was busy, Natalie finally put down the phone.
She was rooted to the spot for a long time. She rubbed her eyes as her lips curled up.
"Damn it, Natalie, you are such a fool. What are you so emotional for?" Natalie scolded herself silently.
Knowing that someone would help her from that moment on, there was nothing for her to be depressed about. Instead, she should feel elated.
Natalie raised her head and smiled as she headed towards the classroom.
When she arrived at the entrance of the classroom, Natalie saw Sebastian.
Sebastian was as pale as a ghost. He looked like he was in a bad mood.
"Sebastian, what's wrong?" Natalie greeted Sebastian. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Sebastian lowered his head and replied, "Natalie, we shouldn't talk for now. I've heard that the rumors are getting out of hand recently."
As soon as he finished speaking, a woman's voice suddenly spoke, "Yo, isn't this the famous adulterous couple in our school?"
They searched for the source of that voice and saw Kimberly, Queenie, and a few girls were heading towards them.
When Natalie locked eyes with Queenie, a death glare flashed in her eyes.
Sebastian stood up and refuted, "You're being ridiculous!"
"Ridiculous?" Kimberly raised her brows and said, "What's the matter with those photos? Why didn't you say that when you were in bed with Natalie?" Sebastian's face turned red in embarrassment when he heard that.
Natalie stood up immediately and said, "Kimberly, your eyes are gorgeous."
Kimberly was stunned for a moment before laughing smugly. "Of course, my eyes are my best feature."
Natalie joined in the laughter. "Unfortunately, your big and beautiful eyes are blind. As they say, there's no rose without a thorn."
Kimberly suddenly flew into a rage. "What the h*ll, Natalie Godfrey?"
The smile on the corner of Natalie's lips became more and more profound. "Oh, now that you know that I'm spewing nonsense. It seems like no one else besides you is allowed to talk crap, Miss Campbell."
Kimberly became enraged. Queenie, who was standing next to her, held her back and advised her, "Kimberly, don't talk nonsense with this bit*h. She also knows how to run her mouth."
Several girls gathered around them and commented, "That's right, Kimberly. Everyone knows about the relationship between her and Sebastian. They are now notorious in our school."
Then, there was a burst of laughter.
Sebastian raged with an awkward look, "Natalie and I are innocent. Those photos are all fake."
"Oh, 'Natalie'. It sounds like you two are lovey-dovey. Yet, you want to pretend that nothing is going on between you two," someone laughed. Kimberly glared at Natalie and added, "Natalie Godfrey. You two have obviously done it, yet you still want to claim that the photos are forged somehow? Are you kidding me? You liar, do you think that everybody is foolish?"
Queenie did not tell Kimberly about the truth of those photos, so Kimberly had mistakenly believed that those photos were real.
"I can't help it if you want to be the foolish one." Natalie returned a menacing glare.
"You adulterous couple!" Kimberly barked maliciously.
"Watch your words!"
"Am I wrong?"
"Are you blind? Can't you see that those photos are fake?"
"Oh, if it's really fake, I will broadcast myself eating sh*t live!" Kimberly was sure that those photos must be real and Natalie was just trying to mess with her.
Natalie's voice suddenly rose a notch. "Did you all hear that? Kimberly has said that if the photos of Sebastian and me are fake, she would broadcast herself eating sh*t."
"Yes, I am a woman of my word. You f*cking slut."
Natalie replied with a smirk, "Then I'll wait for you to eat sh*t."
After completing her sentence, she turned around and went into the classroom.
As Natalie disappeared from their sight, the girls huddled around Kimberly and chattered, "Natalie is unbelievable. She was caught in the act and photographed by someone. However, she still refuses to admit it. How can she be so thick-skinned."
"Don't you know that she was born poor? Girls like them are always like this. They have no respect for themselves at all."
"That's right. How dare she say that the photos are fake? Does she think that everyone is blind?"
Around ten in the morning, the principal assembled the student body and lecturers in the auditorium.
There was an extremely spacious auditorium at Agaphen University. It could accommodate all the teachers and students of the university. It was where students usually carried out their
performances and activities.
Everybody was summoned to the auditorium on the spur of the moment. Hence, no one knew what had happened.
When everyone arrived, the principal ascended the stage.
"Dear teachers and students, the reason why I gathered you here today is to discuss the matter concerning Natalie Godfrey and Sebastian Hoffman, who are students of our university."
As soon as he finished his sentence, there was a commotion.
The matter surrounding Natalie and Sebastian had recently caused a sensation in the university. Now, the principal had personally gathered everyone to announce something about this matter. Everyone guessed that punishment was coming for Natalie and Sebastian.
Kimberly and Queenie couldn't be happier.
Kimberly told Queenie, "Queenie, now that even the principal has been alerted of this matter, I think they will get expelled soon. Now that the principal is addressing this personally. Let's see if Natalie can defend herself!"
