Chapter 208
William did not even once look at Evelyn. The words got caught in her throat. She realized that William was not
going to be nice to her.
If she continued explaining, she would only humiliate herself.
William reached out and took Ariana’s waist. A frown crept onto his brows when he saw the awful bruises on her
skin. “This is serious. You need to go to the hospital.”
Maddie didn’t want to be implicated, and she shot Evelyn a look, asking for help. “I-I didn’t step hard on her
hand at all!”
Evelyn chimed in, “Maddie accidentally stepped on Ms. Torrey’s hand. We will pay for her medical fees.”
“This is not a problem of medical fees,” William sneered. will obtain the security footage of the library. If you

of the situation.
Her family had spent a lot of money and used their connections to get her into Glea College. Her parents would
give her a hard tif she was expelled!
“Eve, help me! I didn’t do it on purpose!” Maddie put all her hopes on Evelyn.
Evelyn bit her lip. If they found out the truth via the footage, Maddie would certainly be punished.

“There are plenty of rich students in Glea College-they do.’t need your money. Evelyn, if you keep defending
your friends, | will assall three of you are guilty.”
With that, William held Ariana’s hand and led her out of the library. As they left, Ariana turned around and
flashed the ta faint smile.
Evelyn noticed the look in Ariana’s eyes, which further confirmed that Ariana had purposely stayed silent and
played the victim.
When William left the library, he released Ariana’s hand. The pain in her hand made her gasp.
“Ouch! Be gentle!”
“Serves you right! What were you doing at the library just now?”
From their first encounter, Ariana had always cacross as a defensive woman to William. He had never seen
her so submissive. She did not utter a word-not even moaning in pain-when Maddie stepped on her hand just
now.
She replied, “Well, | saw you coming my way. Besides, they won't learn a lesson if | don’t let myself be hurt.”
“Are you willing to hurt yourself just to teach them a lesson? Ariana, | don’t know if | should call you smart or
dumb.”
“Of course, I'm being smart!” She stated with an arched brow, “They were not wrong. Now that I'm no longer
Brian's fiancée, I'm a nobody at Glea College. Anyone with power or wealth could crush me. But | believe none of
them will lay a hand onafter what happened today.”
