Chapter 520 This Is What You OweThe sight before them made everyone's eyes widen in disbelief, Jean was half-kneeling on the floor, blood already dripping from her nose down to her lips, her fingers stained with dark red....
It looked like she had fallen hard and was now bleeding uncontrollably...
The scene was unsettling. Someone instinctively stepped forward, trying to help Jean to her feet.
Jean blinked slowly. There was no pain in her eyes-just a cold, piercing indifference.
Her gaze sharpened, angling toward the girl seated nearby- The one who had caused all of this. It was her-she had stuck her foot out in the aisle, tripping Jean on purpose.
"You think that was funny?" Jean narrowed her eyes, staring coldly at Sarah across the way.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe honestly hadn't expected Sarah to stoop this low-classroom humiliation wasn't enough, now she had to pull schildish, petty trick after class? Sarah remained seated, her expression blank as she looked back.
There was no guilt in her eyes, just the sdeep, unreadable darkness as always.
Then her lips moved slightly, her voice carrying a chilling undercurrent. “Because," Her tone suddenly dropped so low that only the two of them could hear it, "This is what you owe me..." Jean's eyes flickered.
She clenched her teeth, momentarily at a loss for words.

Jean suddenly realized that her earlier mindset just wouldn't work anymore.
She had hoped that if she didn't provoke Sarah, maybe Sarah would let the past go. Maybe they couldn't be friends, but at least they could be strangers who stayed out of each other's way...
But that hope seemed naive now.
Sarah's hostility was overwhelming. And if that was how it was going to be, Jean couldn't stay passive any longer.
If Sarah insisted on coming after her-then she wasn't going to sit back and take it.
Jean's expression grew colder, like it had been dusted with frost and snow, the icy tone mingling with the blood on her face to form a chilling, unnerving sharpness.
"Sarah, if that's how it is," she said, the corner of her mouth lifting slightly in what looked like a smile, though her eyes were frozen over, "then I'm not going to make it easy for you either..."

Sarah met the steely, unwavering look in Jean's eyes, and her heart couldn't help but tremble. Why is the looking atlike that? The Jean she remembered had been a paper tiger-tough on the outside, hollow on the inside. She looked fierce but was never really a threat.
But the girl standing before her now felt like a completely different person. Is she really the Jean I used to know? "Jean, are you okay?" The classmates nearby had been tho shaken. They rushed over, trembling, trying to help her up.
"You're bleeding so much, letcall an ambulance..."
Jean didn't respond. She braced her hand against the desk, trying to get up on her own. sebleed.
She hadn't actually fallen that hard-it just looked bad because of the Her hands were covered in blood, and she didn't want to stain anyone else.
