Ms. Powell turned to Daisy. “Daisy, is there anything you want to say?”
Daisy had never felt this humiliated before. She shot Fiona a look so sharp it could cut, her whole body burning with anger. “Fiona, I’ve never done anything to you. Why are you doing this to me?”
Fiona squeezed her hands together and looked away. “At first, I didn’t plan to show the video. I wanted you to admit you were wrong. But instead, you kept denying it and even tried to blame Lydia. I just couldn’t let my conscience go. I’m sorry.”
Fiona hadn’t wanted things to turn out like this with Daisy. She wasn’t looking for trouble, but at this point, it didn’t matter anymore. If the Rivers family wanted to put her on their blacklist, so be it. Daisy was the kind of person she never wanted to deal with anyway.
Ronald still couldn’t believe Daisy was acting so arrogant, even with all the evidence laid out right in front of her. Did she think she owned the place?
“Daisy, now that everything’s clear, I’m asking you to apologize to Lydia. If Lydia accepts your apology, we’ll let this go.”
Daisy was still a mess, her clothes damp and hair tangled. And now they wanted her to apologize in front of everyone? She could barely choke down her pride.
Ms. Powell spoke up too. “Daisy, since you started all this, you should apologize to Lydia. Or, if you have anything else you want to say, now’s the time.”
Daisy glared at Lydia, then shot Monica and Fiona looks full of resentment. She saved her harshest glare for Fiona. If Fiona hadn’t come up with that video, Daisy could have denied everything, and there’d be nothing Lydia or the school could do to her.
But now...
She balled her fists, gritted her teeth, and mumbled three words, barely above a whisper. “I’m sorry.”
No one in the room, not even Lydia, could really hear her apology.
