Wendy snapped , “ Why did you start this fight ? Explain yourself ”
“ Wendy , I swear it was Amber who started it . We didn’t even do anything at all . She just hanged at us out of nowhere and started hitting it hurts ( much ”
“ Exactly , Wendy . All we did was catch her trying to give Adrian a love letter , and she completely freaked out and attacked Look Shem
“ Claire was just trying to calm her down , but Amber wouldn’t listen . She straight up slapped Claire across the face
Just then , Claire stormed in her face flushed with fury . “ Amber , have you lost your damn mind ? How dare you hit me . ”
Wendy was furious . “ Amber , first you neglected your studies , and now you’re caught up in puppy love and even assaulting your classmates ? This is unacceptable Get your guardian bere immediately . ”
Wendy turned to Claire and ordered , “ Go get Susan now , ”
“ Yes , ma’am , Claire replied promptly .
Amber clenched her fists stubbornly and snapped , “ I won’t call anyone . They started it with their insults , and that’s why I hit them . They totally had it coming ”
Bang Wendy brought her palm down hard on the desk . “ Amber , you’re utterly incorrigible . How dare you dely my orders ? You have no say in this . ”
Amber clenched her jaw , saying nothing .
Susan Ward rushed in . “ What happened ! What’s going on here ! ”
Wendy was furious . “ Susan , this is your student . How do you even manage her ? Her grades are already terrible , but today she barged into my class to act
up
She wrote love letters to my student and even assaulted the girls . This isn’t over . I’m calling her guardian and informing the principal . She is completely out of control , wild and untamed . Does she look Ele a student ? ”
Susan stopped forward to shield Amber . “ Yes , Aber , you did go a bit too far today. Fighting is wrong . But there must be reasons behind this . Amber , tell us how the argument started , Why did y you hit them
Amber looked up at Susan , biting her lower lip . “ They insulted me first , and I thaw the punches . I’ll answer for my own a guardian ; I’ll bear all the consequences myself ”

-just arrogance and self – importance , over and over .
“ Take responsibility with what ? Mark my words , Amber , if you’re not expelled for what happened today , count yourself lucky . Just wait . The principal
will be here any minute . ”
Susan demanded , “ What exactly did you say to Amber that made her resort to violence against you ? ”
The girls who got beaten stammered for a moment before selectively recounting the incident , emphasizing how Amber had attacked them .
“ Amber , I’ll be calling your sister . All involved parents will handle this matter , ” Susan announced . She rubbed her temples in frustration
Jocelyn bolted straight to the school office after receiving the call .
Just thinking about Jocelyn gave Susan a sinking feeling in her gut . “ with such a negative influence at home , ow could Amber not affected she
wondered
Susan decided to contact Amber’s parents and ask them to come , “ Hello ? Is this Mr. Hart ? I’m Amber’s teacher She
Aiden hung up the phone and glanced at the doorway . Linda still hadn’t returned , so he called Sienna .
Lana answered the call . The moment she heard that Amber was in trouble at school , she immediately reported it to Sienna
Sienna said , “ Let’s go . We’re heading there right away . ”
Lana replied promptly , “ Right away , Ms. Enna . ”
Jocelyn was the first to arrive at the office . Spotting Amber , she immediately strode over and pulled her into a protective embrace
Staring down everyone in the room , Jocelyn demanded fiercely , “ Who did this ? Who dared lay a hand on Amber ? ”
“ So , you’re her sister ? Let me be clear . This is extremely serious . Not only did she assault my students , but she’s also involved in puppy love . Worse still , she refuses to apologize . I now have grave concerns about her behavioral issues , Wendy said sternly .
Jocelyn scored coldly .
ly , “ Are you even qualified to teach ? Amber would never hit anyone for no reason , if she hit them , they absolutely deserved it .
“ Just look at her face . She got hurt , too . You all ganged up on her . I’m calling the police . This is clearly bullying ”
“ What’s your attitude ? Her mistake is right there for everyone to sey , and you still- “ Wendy was furious .
“ Amber , don’t worry , I know it’s all their fault . We’re not apologizing for anything , ” Jocelyn reassured her firmly .
Susan rubbed her temples . Jocelyn was utterly unreasonable
“ Who do you think you’re talking to Amber hit my daughter . This isn’t over . You’re paying for this , and I’m reporting it to the principal to get Amber expelled . ”
“ Exactly . Where’s the justice ! Just look at my daughter’s face . She’s practically ruined it . ”
Jocelyn shot them a disdainful look . “ What’s that got to do with us ! ”
“ You’re being completely unreasonable ”
“ We demand accountability . Where’s the principal We want him to handle this personally , or no one’s getting any peace at this school ”
Jocelyn ruffled Amber’s hair and scoffed , “ So what ? Do you really think Amber gives a damn about this dump of a school ? Le make this clear . Even if Amber never sets foot in here again , she’ll still be way above your league .”
Jocelyn gently bold Amber , “ Don’t be afraid , Amber . With me here , worst case , you will just drop out of this school Your happiness is what matters most
No one can threaten you .”

Amber nodded hard : No matter what happened , Jocelyn would always have her back .
“ Thank you , Jocelyn , ” Amber whispered .
“ Jocelyn , this isn’t the proper way to handle this situation . We need to get to the bottom of what happened , Susan reasoned
Jocelyn lifted her chin and declared loudly , “ What’s there to figure out ? It’s crystal clear they’re the ones at fault . If you expect us to apologize in your dreams , no way that’s happening .
“ Even if Amber has to leave this school , I won’t let my little sister suffer anyjustice . ”
Amber’s eyes welled up with tears as she looked at Jocelyn , deeply moved .
“ Amber , let’s go , ” Jocelyn said firmly , grabbing Amber’s hand and pulling her toward the door .
Wendy was appalled by Jocelyn’s disgraceful behavior . Fuming , she snapped and delivered a harsh warning . “ Stop right there . Make no mistake : if you step out that door , Amber will be expelled immediately .
“ The SATs are just days away ; if she leaves now , this will ruin her academic future . ”
