Chapter 63
“You ungrateful brat! Put me down!” Beau screamed.
Merida was furious, and she shouted back, “What did you just call me?”
Beau yelled at the top of his lungs, “Grandma said our family wasted all that effort raising you! We’re not siblings anymore!
“You and that pretentious, fake woman are just sewer rats! We don’t want to share a classroom with a rat!”
Behind him, his little followers pinched their noses dramatically.
“Bambi! Let go of Mr. Beau!”
“Bambi smells so bad! She’s gross!”
“My mom told me not to talk to Bambi anymore. She doesn’t belong in our class!”
Merida gritted her teeth and raised her other hand. Realizing she was about to hit him, Beau panicked and shouted to his friends. “Help me!”
Yet, not a single one dared to step forward.
Niamh leaned casually against her motorcycle while holding up her phone, recording every second of Merida lifting Beau effortlessly.
She saw Merida raise her hand, about to strike Beau, and a grin spread across her face.
“Do it! Hit him!” She screamed internally. She was ready to send this video straight to Harvey and Ethel.
The next second, Merida suddenly released him. Beau tumbled to the ground with a loud yelp. He pushed himself up with trembling hands and looked up at Merida standing over him, who was tall and imposing.
The shadow she cast covered him entirely, and Beau’s teeth chattered in fear. Seeing this version of Merida, his little followers were equally terrified.
Merida lifted her fist again.
“Ugh!” Beau knew none of his so–called friends would come to his rescue. Resigned, he turned his head away and squeezed his eyes shut, bracing for impact.
But the expected pain never came.
“I don’t bully the weak,” Merida said, lowering her fist.
What was the point of beating up a helpless weakling? It was not worth her time.
“Merida, what’s going on?”
Elara approached just as Beau pointed at Merida and whined, “She hit me!”
Merida exploded, “Beau told everyone not to play with me! He said anyone who talks to me will become the school’s enemy!”
Elara’s cold gaze landed on Beau. “I’ll have your teacher call your father to school.”
Before she even finished speaking, Beau shot back defiantly, “My dad’s on the school board! I’ll make him expel
Bambi!”

It was his first time realizing that Elara wouldn’t mediate their fights anymore. It was also his first time seeing Elara standing by Merida’s side.
Rage immediately burned in his chest.
“Ms. Jones!” Bridget called out as she hurried over.
Seeing Beau sitting on the ground but clearly unhurt, she let out a expression.
“Children, stop lingering at the gate and head to your classrooms!”
all sigh of relief before putting on a serious
Elara turned to Bridget. “What disciplinary action did the school take regarding Beau bringing a dangerous weapon to school?”
Bridget hesitated before forcing a smile. “Oh? Beau is a well–behaved student. He would never bring anything dangerous to school. That never happened.”
Elara’s expression darkened at her words. Bridget then leaned in and lightly nudged Elara’s arm.
“Ms. Jones, just let this go. Your daughter no longer has the Fisher family’s protection. Do you really want her to be expelled?” she whispered.
The moment she finished speaking, a commotion erupted nearby.
“The principal is coming!” someone called out.
Summit Academy’s principal, accompanied by a group of school officials, approached with an air of authority. Beau took one look at the situation and instantly burst into loud, dramatic sobs. “Bambi hit me!” James had long–standing ties with Ethel, and she had made it clear he was to protect Beau at all costs.
James made his declaration in front of everyone with a stern expression, “Ms. Jones, your daughter attacked a fellow student at the school gate. I must expel her to uphold our school’s discipline!”
Niamh quickly stepped forward and helped Beau to his feet, while Beau’s lips curled into a triumphant smirk.
