Chapter 20 The next day, Emma strolled happily towards the classroom, even though the Taylor and Wilson families had caused s the day before. She cooked dinner for Liam after dealing with them, and he really liked her cooking. As she got to the classroom door, she overheard. someone talking about her.
"Someone tried to smash a vase on that bumpkin's head, but Jack took it for her." “Not just Jack. It's said that she was taken away by a super hot guy." "Lucky dog. What do they dig in this broke bumpkin?" "Who knows? Perhaps she's good in bed." These girls laughed after that. Just then, a cold voice cfrom behind them. "I don't know if I'm good in bed, but I'm good at beating up gossiping b**s. You wanna try?" The classroom was in dead silence, and everyone fled to their seats like startled birds, except for one girl. She stood up to Emma and said, "What's so great about you, Emma? Everyone knows your family has gone bankrupt, yet yesterday, you cdown from Maybach with a man sitting inside. No one would believe that he's not your sugar daddy." Emma vaguely remembered this girl's name, Ruby Cruz. She looked at her and asked, "What does it have to do with you?" "Nothing, but if you mess up, word will definitely get around," Ruby said.
"She's right," said a girl standing next to Ruby, "Don't blus for gossiping if you have done something so shameless." Emma remembered that they were Aria's close friends. She thought to herself, 'Aria's friends. Birds of a feather flock together.' Emma realized that they were purposely looking for trouble and sneered. “Gossiping is okay, but spreading rumors is not. I've never had a good temper," she. said as she dropped her school bag and sat down, crossing her legs. "After all, I sent my own sister to jail after she messed with me." "Sending your own sister to jail is not something to brag about! Stop talking and have a combat with me. I dare you!" Ruby taunted. She always had a thing for Jack. When Jack confessed to Emma, Ruby hated Emma so much that she wanted to kill her. Most importantly, Ruby was a well-trained boxer and had once won the Junior National Championship. No one at Vark College knew about it. Today, she was going to beat Emma up.
Emma smiled faintly. "Why not?" Ruby sneered. "Okay. If you lose, go run ten laps naked on the track." Ruby was secretly pleased.

Emma shook her head, "If I have to run naked, you're gonna have to do more than apologize." "What do you want, then?" Ruby asked.
"Slap yourself twenty times and yell a hundred times that Ruby is a mouthy **h in the cafeteria!" answered Emma.
Ruby was not afraid in the slightest and smiled triumphantly. 'There's no way I'm going to lose. I am a national champion. As long as Emma agrees to fight, I will definitely beat her up. Everyone's gonna watch her run naked,' she thought. "Okay, noon today, at the gym." 1/3 O Chapter 20 €73% ☐ Emma and Ruby's duel quickly spread throughout the school. By eleven-fifty, the gym was packed. The two girls had already suited up on the green floor.
When Ruby's champion belt was revealed, everyone was shocked! "Oh my god! She is a champion boxer!" "Ruby's a badass. What about Emma?" They looked at Emma. She seemed to know nothing about fighting.
"I don't think she can fight." "She's gonna get her a** kicked." Speople were worried about Emma. “What if she gets hurt?" Just then, Emma seemed to think of something and made a call. "Hey, here's a task for you." The guy she called was this computer w**on her team who was really good at hacking surveillance cameras. "What is it, boss?" "Can you grab the surveillance footage from the Vark College gym? I really need it," Emma asked.
He did as she said, only to see her in the camera. "Hey, boss, what's going on here? I'm looking at you in the camera." "That's right," Emma said adorably, winking at the camera. "Record my highlight. I'm going to send it to my husband." The guy was confused, thinking, 'What's that supposed to mean? You literally ask a genius hacker to record the highlights of your fight with another girl so you can send them to your husband?' "What? You don't want to do that for me?" Emma sensed the long silence on the phone.
"Of course I do. Now, blow my mind, will you?" answered the guy.
"Don't forget to take out sof the details. I don't want my husband to get too much information from it," said Emma.
The guy was at a loss for words.

I have a surprise for you. Kiss.] Emma had just finished sending the message, and Ruby couldn't bear it anymore. "Emma, don't even think about stalling. It's not gonna work." She got on the court and practiced boxing to warm up. "Huh!" she shouted. Her anger transformed into this powerful shout. She was determined to hurt Emma badly today.
The opening scene shocked the crowd. Ruby didn't attack Emma. Instead, she showed her skills and strength with each punch full of power. Scould feel the entire floor shake when she kicked. It seemed like she could even break a small tree with her kicks. If she hit Emma, not only would Emma break a bone, but there might also be internal bleeding.
Speople were worried for Emma. "Emma, give up. This is not a joke. You don't want to lose your life in this game." But Emma turned a deaf ear. She put her hands in her pockets, shook her head, and leisurely put her cell phone to the side. She didn't warm up, just standing there.
Ruby looked at her and got even angrier! 'How dare she look down on me!' she thought angrily. Ruby went for Emma at a fast speed. At that moment, she wanted to kill Emma.
