"No!" Helen suddenly found her strength and scrambled to her feet, screaming like a madwoman. "Mr. Leach, you can't call the police. If you do, my life will be over. You can't do that. I'm from the Flynn family. My brother is on the school board. How can you ignore the She thought, "I can't let it happen!' Hereyes were full of tears. She knew the consequences of calling the police. She was the daughter of the Flynn family in Souerity, the center of attention. If she were to be arrested, she would be ostracized by all the rich girls in Souerity, and she would inevitably become a target of public scorn. Carter hesitated. After all, the Flynn family was on the school board.
Yo*n*'s voice was icy cold. He said. "Don't worry, Mr. Leach. The school board isn't unreasonable. Besides, it involves Yoselin, and the Russell family won't let it go either, Let's follow Ms. Sanchez's suggestion."
"Mr. Russell, please help me! I swear I'll never do this again. Please don't call the police." Helen cried in terror, trying to grab **'s hand Yonas only glanced at her coldly before stepping back.
Yasmine watched her, finding it ridiculous. She said, "Helen, I warned you at the Russell family's banquet that if you dared to provoke me again, I'd settle all scores. Last time, it was because your family begged, too. Out of respect for the Russell family, we didn't call the police. But But this time, no one will save you."
"Yasmine, please! I'm really sorry. Don't call the police. I won't do anything like this ever again! Don't you like my brother? If you forgive me, I'll help you and my brother get back together!" Helen cried desperately, saying all kinds of things that were disgusting for Yasmine in her plea. Yasmine only felt annoyed. She had said it many times that she no longer had feelings for Xavier. "Helen. I've already called the police. They'll be here any moment," she said impatiently. Many students in the the fact that she was the same audience witnessed the scene, shocked at the fact that she was the same young lady who usually prided herself on being noble and elegant. "Helen, please step down. The competition i isn't over yet, and there's still an award ceremony. Do you really want to keep embarrassing yourself here?" Yasmine looked at her with disgust who was crying and laughing at the same time. Suddenly, Helen pushed Yoselin hard and Yoselin fell directly from the stage. She then rushed to Yasmine and shouted, "I'll kill you!"

Before Yasmine could react, a man rushed at her. The next second, she was slammed into someone's chest, while Helen- crashed into the judges' table. Yonas frowned and held Yasmine up. He asked, "Are you okay?"
Yasmine was so scared that her heart beat faster. She replied. Tr fine. Go and check Yoselin."
Yonas then went over, and found that Yoselin was pushed to the audience. Fortunately, those students caught her without any injury.
Helen burst into a fit of angry laughter. Lena and the other judges immediately stepped aside. In the chaos, Helen grabbed the thermos from Yasmine's table and hurled it at her. She shouted, "Go to hell!" Boiling water splashed all over Yasmine who screamed in pain. Chapter

"Ms. Sanch
Sanchez!"
Amid the chaotic shouts, Yasmine collapsed. She saw Helen being restrained by security, and in those concerned eyes, she lost consciousness and fell off the stage
the infirmary, Yasmine had suffered extensive burns on her legs, which were red and swollen with blisters. Her arms also bore burn marks.
Yoselin wanted to come along, but Youas didn't let her come and asked someone to send her home.
As the doctor treated her burns, Yasmine gasped in pain.
The pain was so intense that it made her itch, but even the slightest touch caused excruciating agony.
It wasn't just t the pain. It
It felt like fiery bugs were crawling over her legs and arms, biting into her skin.

The doctor brought over ice packs and handed them to Yonas, instructing him to apply them to the burned areas, making sure they were pressed firmly against her skin for at least ten minutes. Yonas took the ice pack and suddenly thought of something to call the doctor. He asked, "Can she still use ice packs while in her period?"
The doctor
r understood instantly and replied, "It doesn't matter. She shouldn't feel it."
Yasmine blushed and pulled Yonas back with her unhurt hand. She said, "Give it to me!"
Yonas just placed one ice pack on her lega and held the other against her burned arm.
"I can do it myself, Yasmine said, feeling a little embarrassed.
But Yonas chuckled and said, "Yoselin will cry if she knows it."
The moment the ice pack touched her skin, Yasmine gasped, but soon after, she felt a soothing coolness. The burning sensation faded, replaced by numbness. She thought that any feeling was better than the searing pain from before. Yonas held the ice pack for so long t that his arm began to ache, so he switched hands. "Thank you,"
Yasmine said. Although she knew that it could be impossible for her to be with Yonas, having someone by her side felt comforting
"Yasmine, why are you still being so polite to me?" Yonas asked.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Yasmine directly changed the subject and asked, "Yoselin went home, right? Is she okay?"
"She's fine. She insisted on coming to see you, but I sent her home. She wouldn't have been much help anyway." Yonas replied. "Where's Helen? Yasmine's gaze became cold at the mention of the name.
Y**s expression darkened as well, He said, "She was taken away by the police.
"What about the competition?" Yasmine asked.

"You have a lot of questions to ask. The competition ended perfectly, but Yoselin refused to accept the award." He paused for
a moment.
'Refuse?" Yasmine immediately understood. Yoselin had refused the award to avoid any suspicion, even though everyone knew it was Helen who had stolen the test paper and framed her
Still, some people might think that Yasmine and Yoselin were close and suspect foul play. It was better to forgo the award altogether.
"I didn't help her," Yasmine murmured. "She's really smart. The backup test was much harder, and she still managed to get so many answers right. She's incredible."

her head. Looking at her, Yonas felt as if she'd been deeply wronged. Unable to resist, he reached out and patted her head.
The next second, Yasmine suddenly raised her head and shook off his hand. She said, "Mr. Russell, please behave yourself." Yonas replied, "Alright, I just wanted to say that Yoselin doesn't care about the award. All she wanted was recognition from someone she respects. When she refused the award, Lena even praised her. Hearing that, Yasmine felt much better.
"How are you feeling now? Still in pain?" Yonas asked with concern.
Yasmine shook her head and replied, "It's numb now. Mr. Russell, didn't you know that the initial reaction to a burn isn't pain? It's just heat. The burned skin goes numb, and the most unbearable part is the swelling."
