Chapter116
“Crazy? You dare to do it but not to face the consequences, right? When you instigated your cousin to seduce my boyfriend, how come you didn’t think about today?”
Ophelia had three question marks popping up over her head. “What did you say?”
“You couldn’t argue! I already knew! My boyfriend admitted it, and Bessie told me too!”
Ophelia hadn’t figured out what was going on, but upon hearing Bessie’s name, she knew it was likely related to her again!
She coldly scoffed, “Hannah, you can’t be that brainless, can you? What kind of person Bessie is, you didn’t know before, and you still don’t know now? How could you still believe her words? How stupid can you be!”
“I believed in my cousin; she wouldn’t do such a thing. If you had any sense, you would investigate it further!“.
After saying that, he loosened his grip forcefully and said, “Nora, go!”
Nora…
Hearing this long–lost title, Lenora’s eyes brimmed with tears.
She lowered her head and silently followed behind her.
Ophelia turned around and saw that there was quite a distance between her and her, as if she didn’t dare to come closer. She sighed silently in her heart, walked back, and grabbed her hand.

Lenora felt a bit stiff, as if she were not accustomed to her closeness.
Ophelia seemed oblivious and directly pulled her into the bathroom, where she washed her disheveled hair and face.
“What exactly was Hannah talking about?” she asked.
Hearing her mention this, the long–standing grievances of Lenora surged to the forefront of her mind.
“I was not familiar with Hannah’s boyfriend at all. The only time we had any contact was when he asked me to pass something to Bessie, but I didn’t expect it to be a Valentine’s Day gift…”
“I gave the things to Bessie, and she originally accepted them but then handed them back to me, asking me to help keep them for a day. I didn’t suspect anything and agreed. Then Hannah burst into my dorm with people, pointed at that gift, and accused me of being the mistress who was seducing her boyfriend!”
“Then there was Hannah’s boyfriend Jasper, who couldn’t bear to expose Bessie and actually said, ‘I am the mistress!“”
Ophelia’s expression suddenly turned icy.
“Bessie? What did she say?”
Lenora held back her tears and said, “Bessie denied it, claiming that the gift had nothing to do with her. I even overheard her quietly talking to Hannah, saying… that it was because you couldn’t stand Hannah that you deliberately made me try to seduce Jasper…”
Ophelia’s face looked somewhat terrifying. Looking at her cousin, who was trying hard to hold back her tears, she almost felt like killing
someone.
She instinctively said, “Why didn’t you tell me…”
Before she finished speaking, she remembered something and suddenly fell silent.
Sure enough, Lenora’s hoarse voice sounded.
“I had looked for my cousin, and I told you not to believe Bessie, but you refused to believe me.”
Speaking of this, her grievances reached their peak, and the tears she had been holding back could no longer be restrained and fell down.
Ophelia closed her eyes.
She remembered that in her past life, there had indeed been such an experience. Lenora had sought her out, and not just once. However, at that time, she was wholeheartedly believing in Erin and Bessie, and under their instigation, she had been extremely hostile towards her relatives. How could she possibly believe her cousin?
Even for a year, she knew that Lenora was also at Ventura University, but she had never gone to look for her.
“How long had Hannah and the others been bullying you?” She took a deep breath and asked coldly.
Lenora hesitated, glanced at her cautiously, and said nothing.
Ophelia, however, probably guessed it from her reaction.
Based on what I had heard Hannah say by chance before, combined with what Lenora just said, it probably started last semester; in any case, this definitely would not be the first time!
The hand beside Ophelia pinched the palm, and she suddenly recalled something she had learned unintentionally in her past life.
My cousin Lenora was a year younger than her and shouldn’t have been in
the same grade. She chose to skip a grade for her sake, and later, she followed her to get into Ventura University for the same reason. However, despite doing so much, she still couldn’t be by her side…
In an instant, a deep sense of guilt, regret, and self–blame almost drowned him.
Ophelia even began to hate her past self, wondering how she could have been so foolish..
“Don’t worry, I will prove your innocence and make Hannah apologize to you!” She gently said as she tidied up her cousin’s damp hair, “Let’s go outside and buy some clean clothes to change into.”
