Chapter 26: Avery Jones

The students gasped at Natasha's words, their suspicion deepening.

"You mean… you don't actually know if Olivia pushed you?" a girl asked slowly.

"I—" Natasha bit her lip, unable to answer.

Janet sighed and turned back to Rose. "And you, Rose? If you really know so much about jewelry, then tell us—why did you assume the ring was fake without even examining it?"

Rose's hands curled into fists. She was backed into a corner.

If she admitted she didn't check, her reputation would be in shambles. If she admitted she did check, then others would say that she had deliberately framed Olivia.

Damn it.

Just then, the classroom door creaked open.

Everyone turned.

Standing in the doorway, was the Class Teacher Avery Jones.

Rose's eyes lit up.

Avery Jones was a biased teacher. She loves to suck up to the rich while looking down on the poor.

If anyone hated Olivia other than her, it would definitely be Avery.
