CHAPTER 44

  PERCIE

  Once you made one mistake, people forgot your good deeds. What stuck in their heads was that one mistake. The last person I thought would never judge me was Hailey. When I saw those judgy eyes staring at me, I snapped.

  Now I left her. Not because I was mad at her, but at myself. I cared about her more than anything, but seeing her questioning my sanity, I couldn’t bear that look. I had to go away for a while.

  I found myself walking away from the campus. I stayed for a while outside my car, wondering who burned down that warehouse. No students would dare. I knew that. Unless someone who hated Adrian or those rich stupid kids.

  I scratched my head in frustration.

  I shouldn’t have left her like that alone. I should have been straight with her.

  Hailey deserved to know the truth. My conscience was clear, yet what the fuck I was still doing here?

  “Damn it!”

  “Is something wrong? Is Hailey okay?”?
