All Chapters of Fat Girl's Nemesis: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Lindsay's PovI was still furious about what Lucas had done. What he had pulled in the parking lot earlier was going to make my life on campus even worse. I knew I would be graduating soon… but I still had at least three or four months before I officially graduated. How the hell was I supposed to survive until then? Especially once Lucas went back to Russia, who was going to protect me? Not that I was dependent on him or anything… but… those women could be absolutely vicious when they were angry.I had once seen a junior get bullied relentlessly because she was accused of acting arrogant toward her seniors. Like, seriously? The junior had been locked inside a bathroom at the very end of the old building, in a corridor that had long since been abandoned, complete with all the rumors about ghosts and other unseen occupants. The seniors threatened anyone who tried to approach the bathroom, saying they would suffer the same fate. In the end, the junior wasn't released until nighttime, aft

“What do you want?!” I demanded over the phone.I had borrowed Alicia's phone to call Dave, getting his number from Clair. Dave himself had told Clair that if I wanted all the charges dropped… I had to contact him directly. That bastard!“You!” came the reply from a man whose voice I hadn't heard in a long time. A man's voice that had once made me happy and given me hope, but had now become the voice of the person I hated most.“Let Travis and Clair go. They're the people who helped me! You're being cruel…” I said, struggling to hold back my tears. Only then did I realize that I wasn't ready to face him. I cried as I spoke, tears streaming down my face.I didn't say anything for a long time. Finally, Dave answered, his voice much softer than before.“Listen, Rose. I'm sorry. I promise I won't do the same thing again if you don't want me to. I'll wait until you give me permission… I'll release Travis and his friend if you come here today. I'll give you twenty-four hours starting now. T

Lindsay and Lucas were the ones who took me to meet Dave, promising they would stay in the same room the entire time. I had asked Lindsay why she was standing up for me so fiercely, and her answer caught me off guard. She said she knew exactly what had happened and understood the principles I had always lived by.She believed Dave had forced me that night, even though I explained that it had felt as if I were hypnotized, blindly nodding along while he did whatever he wanted. The more I thought about it, the more foolish I felt. Used... maybe, or perhaps I simply didn't know how to describe the emptiness lingering inside me."Rose... you don't have to overthink this," Lindsay said from the front passenger seat. "I'll stay with you, okay? Lucas will be there too, so Dave won't dare try anything."According to her, she happened to have a free schedule today, which was why she had rushed over the moment she heard about me. "Babe... let's grab breakfast first," she chirped. I held back a s

Lindsay's Pov"I can't believe it was that easy," I murmured, glancing toward the back seat. Rose was leaning against the headrest with her eyes closed, looking frighteningly pale. She had lost so much weight that it no longer looked healthy, and even the natural glow her skin once had was completely gone.Lucas motioned for me to stay quiet as he continued driving. He spared a brief glance at Rose through the rearview mirror before lowering his voice. "I think she's exhausted. Let her sleep... I'm worried she's sick."I knew it. Rose really did look ill. A few moments later, a faint snore drifted from the back seat, confirming she had fallen into a deep sleep.I had been terrified Dave would lose his temper and become his usual unbearable self. More than anything, I had worried about Rose. But... had he really released her friends just like that?"So... what do we do now?" I whispered."We'll take her to my apartment," Lucas replied quietly. "If necessary, we'll call a doctor. And do

I slowly opened my eyes, only to realize my lower body was aching terribly. Everything felt wet, and a dull, unbearable pain spread through my abdomen.What happened?As I looked around, I immediately realized this wasn't my room or the apartment I had rented yesterday. Where was I? Then the memories came rushing back.Lindsay.“Linds... Lindsay?” I called weakly.The sound of hurried footsteps echoed through the apartment, and relief washed over me. I must have been at Lucas's apartment after all. I vaguely remembered someone mentioning that Lindsay was taking me here because Lucas was both her boyfriend and my bodyguard. Another wave of agony twisted through my lower abdomen, making me clutch it desperately as if something sharp were tearing me apart from the inside. The cramps were unlike anything I had ever experienced.Lindsay rushed into the room with Lucas close behind her. Panic was written all over their faces the moment they saw me.“What happened, Rose?” Lindsay asked as sh
