Chapter 186

There was no evidence for the two things Shawn did. Even if they reported it to the police, they couldn't arrest him. First, no one was killed, and second, there was only the testimony of a five-year-old child. What kind of crime could they charge him with?

Moreover, he would probably have been overjoyed even if they had arrested him. For him, it was a chance to escape the debt collectors led by Lance. He would be thrilled, thinking he had dodged a bullet.

Felicia casually called Lance, instructing him to hurry up and find Shawn. If he couldn't pay, they should continue with the usual punishment.

Hearing this, Lance was eager to help. This was his area of expertise, and given that Melvin had already given orders, how could he dare to cross Felicia? He immediately got to work.

She suspected that Shawn dared to escape because he had received money from Kayla.This belongs to .

Very well, as long as there was a transfer, there would be a record.

Soon, 20 days passed in the blink of an eye.

After the training camp ended, the students packed up again and boarded the bus. This time, even the villagers from Hillfort came down the mountain to see them off.

Unlike the complaints and grievances before they arrived, most of the students were moved when they saw the sincere gratitude in the eyes of the villagers before them.

When they received things from hands weathered by hardships and calloused from years of labor, they couldn't help but feel a deep sense of emotion.

The village head of Hillfort rubbed his hands, smiling a little sheepishly. "The people in our village don't have much to offer. It's all local-smoked ham, homegrown fruits, and cabbage. We hope you won't mind."

These items were from every household, so everyone received something.

Charles and the villagers from Alverton also sent many gifts, including a basket of boiled eggs and several boxes of freshly picked strawberries.

All this generosity was because of Felicia. She waved at them.

The bus slowly started and headed back the way they came.

On the road, the students in the bus became lively again. Some played games, made phone calls, and loudly discussed their experiences over the past few days, sharing boiled eggs and strawberries.

Felicia sat at the back, gazing out of the window, until a clean hand extended toward her-a small piece of bread from the woman sitting in front of her.

She was a little surprised. Her school reputation was bad, and she had no connection with her classmates. Most of them either mocked her or isolated her in groups.

Besides the woman, a man nearby smiled at her, his ears slightly reddened, looking quite shy.

Felicia returned a faint smile and accepted the small piece of bread from the woman. "Thank you."

"You're welcome! We're all classmates."

The other men and women around them said, "Yeah, we're all classmates. Maybe there were some misunderstandings before, but let's all get along well from now on!"

They had excluded Felicia before because of Kayla and Arnold, but mostly they were just following the crowd.

However, many students interacted with Felicia during their time in Alverton. After spending time with her, they understood her better than just hearing others talk about her.

Naturally, they had less hostility toward her.

She smiled, and her backpack at her feet shifted. A small round head peeked out from inside, and immediately, a woman screamed, "Wow! It's Cloud!"

Cloud pawed at Felicia's pants, persistently hiding behind her legs.
