Chapter 1528
"What?"
"The edited video."
Keaton was caught off guard.
He had never really delved into this kind of stuff, so naturally, he didn't have much experience with it.
"What nonsense are you spouting?" The two girls were visibly flustered, taking a while to get their bearings back.
They pointed at Fiona with anger, "Fiona, just because you've got sbacking now, don't think you can just
spout off like that. We're all students here; we wouldn't know how to edit a video."
"Yeah, exactly, we wouldn't know how to do that."
Fiona smirked, raising an eyebrow and crossing her arms, "Oh? Is that so? Then how about we bring in a
professional to see if this video has been tampered with?"
As soon as she said that, the girls' faces drained of color. They hadn't expected Fiona to be so assertive and
shrewd.

Is she really just a high school student?
How does she seem to know everything?
"This isn't going to be cheap, Fiona. Do you really think just because you have someone backing you, they'll foot
the bill willingly? Unless you've swapped favors, there's no way you could be linked to the Woods family like
this."
"Fiona, you're just an easy mark for everyone!" Patricia lashed out, pointing angrily at Fiona. "In school, you're all
over Nash, and outside, it's the sstory. Is there anything you wouldn't do?"
"Easy mark" was indeed a harsh label.
Fiona pressed her lips together, staying silent, her eyes cast down, yet within them was a chill, a depth that
seemed to see right through things.
"I hope you keep up that bravado," Fiona chuckled softly and decided not to drag
it out any longer. She took Jackson's hand and turned to leave.
"Fiona, what do you mean?" Patricia chased after her.
Keaton was left to reprimand one of the girls.
"I'll get a professional to review this video thoroughly. If it's found to be maliciously edited, you'll be held
accountable. I'll have to call your parents."
In an instant, the girl's face turned ghostly pale, and she immediately backed down.
"Mr. Keaton, I'll tell you everything, just please don't call my parents. They'd killif they found out."
Keaton didn't offer her any more protection and walked away.
Seeing this, the girl smirked. She
knew Keaton had a soft spot; after
all, a
few tears and a little
usually kept her out of serious trouble.
"Fiona, explain yourself!" Patricia grabbed her hand, but Fiona shook it off.
Patricia was no fool either. She knew Fiona was clever, so she quickly put sdistance between them, not
wanting to end up like the girwho get in trouble.
With nothing to gain, Patricia left in a huff.
Fiona walked with Jackson to the school gate and waved, "See you later, big brother."
"See you, Fiona." His voice was as warm and gentle as ever.
In that moment, Nash shuddered; Jackson was indeed a sly old fox.
Once back in the classroom, Patricia and her sidekick were now hovering around
Janet, whispering into her ear like little minions.
It didn't take much to guess they were up to no good.
Fiona couldn't be bothered. As long as they stayed out of her hair, she could
pretend nothing happened.
