Ben was startled by her gaze, involuntarily taking a half step back. He swallowed hard, his voice straining as he shouted at her.
āWhat are you staring at? Got a problem?ā
āElizabeth? Are you okay?ā
Renee, who had been trying to blend into the wall due to Benās menacing demeanor, couldnāt help but show her concern.
The class fell silent. Aside from their fear of provoking Ben, they also suspected that Elizabeth might have thrown away Benās book. After all, there was bad blood between the two of them.
And Elizabeth often bullied Linda.
Elizabethās voice was icy, āYou tore the book.ā
āYou had it coming; who asked you to throw away my book?ā Ben had regained his composure, although he was feeling a pang of regret.
āSixty-five years ago, when Sunny Heights High School was first established, there was only one classroom. The school couldnāt afford books because of its limited funds. Principal Emeritus Lawrence stayed up late every night, taking two weeks to hand-copy fifty books. That was the first edition of teaching books at Sunny Heights.ā
āThe students who received these books cherished them deeply. Those books were passed down through several generations and are still preserved in the Sunny Heights Museum today.ā
With an emphasis on each word, Elizabeth declared, āYouāve destroyed Principal Emeritus Lawrenceās hard work and the dreams of countless underprivileged children. I will not forgive you.ā The class was hushed. They felt an inexplicable guilt.
They felt as if they were accomplices.
ā1ā¦,ā Ben began, clearly uneasy under her gaze. It took him a moment before he said, āYou make it sound so noble. But you still lost my book. You donāt value it and then you blame me!ā
Elizabeth calmly asked, āWhereās your proof?ā
āDo you have anything else to say other than this line?ā Ben was on the verge of losing his patience with Elizabeth.
āSo, you have no evidence. Not only did you falsely accuse me, but you also tore my book,ā Elizabeth stated, her face stern as she looked at Ben.
Ben felt increasingly uneasy, but he didnāt want to admit that there might have been a misunderstanding, nor did he believe there was one.
āBen!ā Linda stepped forward, āThis is too much. How could you tear
Elizabethās book?ā
Ben looked aggrieved, āShe started it.ā
āBut you shouldnāt have torn the book! And you were the one who first falsely accused Elizabeth of cheating. Itās natural for her to be upset.ā
Linda turned to Elizabeth and gently said, āElizabeth, why donāt you apologize to Ben, and letās put this behind us? Making a big fuss is not good for anyone.ā
Seeing that Elizabeth didnāt respond, Linda, in a peace-making tone, told Ben, āFor my sake, Ben, letās drop it.ā
āYouāre wrong again.ā
Elizabeth suddenly spoke, her piercing eyes locked onto Linda, āWhy should I apologize? If I apologize, it means Iām admitting to doing it. But I didnāt, so I donāt need to.ā
āBen should apologize. He owes my book an apology.ā
Linda nearly bit her tongue.
She had forgotten that Elizabeth never minced words, regardless of the situation.
Elizabethās firm stance left their classmates wondering: who was in the wrong?
The class teacher arrived just then, āWhatās going on here? Are you planning to fight?ā
A student called Frank over, claiming that Ben wanted to fight Elizabeth!
The thought almost gave him a heart attack.
Could tiny Elizabeth really get into a fight?
Unlikely.
āMr. Berwick, Elizabeth threw my book into the trash. She started it,ā Ben quickly tried to put the blame on her.
Instinctively, Frank turned to look at Elizabeth..
