Second Chances

Chapter 189 

The atmosphere around the masked man was tense. He stared at the screen and said, “Investigate. Investigate 

who it is!” 

“Who dared to infiltrate our ranks?” He thought. 

He soon suspected Emma. After all, Liam was not an easy man to deal with… 

Just as the masked man was wondering if Emma already knew about his plan, his subordinate said, “Sir, I’ve found our person of interest! It’s someone from Yenovia!” 

“Yenovia?” 

Liam continued to listen to everything on the radio. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. 

He had just deliberately left a flaw to arouse the members of the King’s Association’s suspicion. 

However, members of the King’s Association could not find out that he was the one who was eavesdropping. Instead, they would suspect their own people in Yenovia. 

Just like that, Liam and Emma had achieved their goal. 

The next day. 

Emma ran around the field in advance as usual. Once her body was slightly warmed up, she went to the canteen while everyone prepared for the competition. 

Emma had two eggs, milk, kiwi, vegetables, and a packet of nuts for breakfast. When she returned to her seat, she realized that her classmates were arguing 

“Rielle, who were you pretending to be so coquettish for just now? Do you think you’re the only one capable of being coquettish? Are you deliberately going against me?” 

Emma immediately noticed Rielle because she was her roommate. 

Celia was the person scolding Emma. She was the most popular girl in Class 3, the class next to hers. Celia was a real brat and quite undisciplined. Rumor has it that she had even been imprisoned for a few years before enrolling at their school. Everyone avoided Celia like the plague. 

However, Celia was in good physical shape. Emma did not participate in the last midterm exam. Riley took first place, Lane got second place, and Cella was in third place. Since then, Celia became even more arrogant, and coach ignored her behavior. 

Celia was usually very domineering in school. Many students did not dare to fight back when she bullied them.

Rielle sat frozen on the spot, her face pale. She pursed her lips stubbornly, but she was terrified. 

Another one of her roommates mustered her courage and said, “Celia, you clearly hit Rielle’s hand when you were standing in line!” 

“Rielle’s wrist is now 

w swollen. She just wanted to switch places. Why a 

you making it sound like she did 

something so bad?” 

“Is her wrist swollen?” Celia asked Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“Where is your swollen wrist? Show me! Let me have a look at your wrist, Rielle!” Celia said. 

Celia spoke very loudly, and many people looked over. 

Rielle hid her hand under the table and did not speak. She did not want to cause trouble and knew that she could not afford to offend Celia. Rielle just wanted to finish her breakfast quickly. 

However, Celia approached and flipped Rielle’s plate over. 

The eggs and dinner rolls on Rielle’s plate fell to the ground. 

Celia looked down at Rielle with disgust and scom 

Everyone felt that Celia had gone overboard, but no one dared to go against her. 

Rielle sat in her seat, feeling humiliated. Her shoulders trembled slightly, and her eyes were red. She did not get up to get more food, nor did she bend down to pick up the food on the ground. 

Celia looked at Rielle and laughed nastily. “Don’t you know how to act miserable to gain sympathy?” 

“Get down on your knees and pick up your food,” Celia demanded. 

“All the students must see that I’m bullying you, conniving little bitch!” 

Emma was eating across from their table and roughly understood what was going on from just a few words of their 

conversation. 

Emma had just finished eating. Her expression could not be seen under the brim of her military hat. 

She got up and left her seat. 

After placing her plate in the reception area, she went back to the canteen counter. 

“Please give me two eggs and dinner rolls.” She ordered. 

After saying that, she lazily carried a tray of the same food she just bad and walked through the crowd. She ignored 

17:00 Sun, 21 

Celia and casually placed the breakfast on the table in front of Rielle. 

Rielle was about to cry. When she saw Emma, she looked up and bit her lip. “Miss Wilson…” 

Emma saw the fear in Rielle’s eyes and patted her shoulder. “Here. Eat up.” 

She didn’t say much, but it made Rielle feel safe. 

Rielle was usually kind to Emma when they interacted in the dormitory. One time, Emma was in need of help, and Blanche, Rielle’s cousin, helped her. Rielle helped Emma get in touch with Blanche. 

Emma naturally wouldn’t stand by and do nothing while Rielle was bullied. 

Celia looked at Emma standing in front of her. Celia noticed that Emma was wearing a military cap, and her uniform was neatly folded in her hands. She was wearing a black T–shirt, looking serious and capable. The brim of her hat cast a shadow over her face, covering her eyebrows but highlighting her nose bridge and rosy lips. 

Emma’s entire jawline was exquisite, but she exuded an unfriendly and unapproachable aura. 

“I just flipped over Rielle’s meal, and this woman has brought over another portion of food. Isn’t she just going against me?‘ Celia thought to herself. 

Celia looked at Emma and sneered. “Who are you? Are you blind? Can’t you see that I’m teaching her a lesson?” 

The surrounding students took a deep breath. The atmosphere became tense. 

Celia was up against Emma. Neither of them was easy to deal with. 

One of them was the troublemaker, while the other was Charon Military School’s legend. Not long ago, Emma had won first place in the International Boxing League. 

Celia said mockingly, “Young lady, I advise you to mind your own business! I got third place in the entire grade in the last exam. If I challenge you to the highest duél, you’ll be kicked out of this school!” 

Celia had gotten third place and knew that only Riley and Lane were ahead of her. 

She had a good relationship with Riley. However, she was not friends with Lane but knew what she looked like. The beautiful and noble woman in front of her was not Lane. 

Therefore, Celia naturally assumed that Emma was far weaker than her. 

Emma raised her head and tilted the brim of her hat, revealing a pair of sharp and cold eyes that stared straight at 

Celia. 

“You think so?” Emma asked confidently.

– Chapter 189 

“Can a mere top–five student kick the champion out of the school?” Emma’s tone was calm, but it stunned Celia. 

“What nonsense are you talking about?” Celia asked in surprise. 

Emma put on her uniform with a serious expression like a veteran cadre. “A successful day begins with at purposeful morning, and I don’t want to cause myself any unhappiness so early in the morning.” 

Emma added, “People like you who topple other people’s plates and waste food are really such bitches.” 

Celia had never been scolded like this before. 

Even Rielle was stunned. 

‘Usually, no one dares to provoke Celia, but Emma has just called her a bitch! 

‘Come to think of it, it only makes sense. This is Emma! 

‘Was there anyone in this school that Emma did not dare to offend?‘ Riley thought. 

Only then did Celia realize that Riley and Lane were ahead of her in the recent exam, but there was still another 

person she hadn’t met who had also obtained the highest score before. 

‘It must be Emma who had represented the school and participated in the boxing competition!‘ Celia realized. 

She was instantly embarrassed and blushed. “What did you just say? Did you call me a bitch?” 

Emma smiled. “Isn’t that what you are?” 

“You hurt Rielle. Rielle didn’t cause you any trouble. You’re the one who’s asking for trouble. If you’re not a bitch, 

what are you?” Emma asked once more. 

“Emma, say that again if you dare!” Celia taunted her. 

Emma said, “I won’t repeat myself.” 

Emma fixed her sleeves and stood beside Rielle. She said calmly, “I hate it when people waste food.” 

She demanded. “Pick up the dinner rolls and eggs off the ground and eat them. Then, apologize to Rielle, and this 

matter will be over.”
