The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 115

Charlotte stood up, gripping her water bottle and leaning on the table with one hand. She kept her eyes lowered, quietly sipping her milk.

She looked so calm, so cool, that the whole room seemed to freeze.

She didn’t say a word, but somehow, just standing there, she made everyone uneasy.

“Is Charlotte about to fight back?” someone whispered.

A guy in the crowd folded his arms, grinning like he was settling in for a show. “If she’s gonna mess with Dennis, she’s got no idea what’s coming.”

Everyone knew Dennis was smart but ruthless. He was the kind of person who would do anything to get his way.

People remembered the time Shirley cheated on that physics test and stole first place from Olivia. Dennis, who had always followed Olivia around like a lovesick puppy, decided he had to step up for her. That’s how he and Shirley became enemies.

Honestly, Shirley only survived it because she was tough. Anyone else would have crumbled.

Now, Charlotte just took the water bottle and finished her milk, totally unbothered. Nancy, never one to miss drama, leaned over and smirked. “Dennis, she isn’t scared of you at all.”

Dennis had been spoiled his whole life. He wasn’t used to anyone looking down on him, let alone some girl from the countryside who kept picking on Olivia. He’d wanted to put her in her place for a while now.

“Hey, country girl. If you know what’s good for you, get lost and send Shirley over. Otherwise, I’ll deal with both of you.”

People glanced at Charlotte, faces full of pity. Of all the people to annoy, she had to go after Dennis.

Even when Dennis messed up, the school never did anything because of his dad.

But Charlotte?

First her family dumped her, now she was about to get kicked out of school. With everything falling apart, you’d think she’d know to keep her head down, not make things worse.
