Chapter 146 Mirabelle Acknowledges Her Mistakes
âMe? Overbearing?â
Calista seemed to have figured out Mirabelleâs intentions. She had shown weakness in front of everyone, forcing her into a position where she had no choice but to forgive her. If she didnât, she would face the condemnation of the crowd. Most people couldnât withstand such pressure and would choose to forgive, right? It had to be said, Mirabelle had played her cards well.
It simply didnât work on her.
With a slight curve of his lips, Calista glanced at the crowd. âDo you all also think I am being unreasonable and unforgiving?â
Although the crowd didnât voice their thoughts, their glances were filled with dissatisfaction toward Calista!
Calista couldnât help but laugh. She was beautiful, and her laughter was breathtaking. Some who were obsessed with looks found themselves quieting down, suddenly realizing that with such beauty, she could be forgiven for just about anything!
After laughing, Calista nodded resolutely and confirmed in a clear, calm voice. Thatâs right, I am indeed. unreasonable and unforgiving!â
Everyone was taken aback. Calista slightly lifted her chin and asked calmly, âI am in the right. If I let her. off, itâs my kindness. If I donât, itâs my pleasure! Since she dared to harm me, why canât I retaliate? Does an apology make it as if nothing had happened?â
It had to be said, Calista made a valid point. Many of the more rational students quietly agreed with her. After all, just because someone played the victim, did it mean they deserved sympathy when they were the ones who messed up in the first place?
Yet, in this world, there always existed some people who were blindly selfârighteous, convinced of their own goodness. They had a penchant for doing foolish things, much like Mirabelleâs selfâappointed knight in shining armor.
He
gave Calista a baffling look. âArenât girls supposed to be kindâhearted? Why are you being so spiteful? Mirabelle has already agreed to compensate you, you could have accepted that and moved on! Why push. things to the extreme? Why insist on sending her to jail? Donât you understand the consequences of her going to jail?â
Calista sneered. âImprisoning her is my prerogative. Why did I have such a right? Because she tried to kill. me with a stone. Though she didnât succeed, her intentions were extremely malicious, hence she deserved. to be punished. If everyone were like you, not knowing how to stand up for their own rights, and everyone were like her, thinking an attempted murder could be resolved with just an apology, then what would be the point of having laws? To restrain the good and indulge the bad?â
Calistaâs high intelligence naturally endowed her with quick wit. Even when she was in the wrong, she could still argue her way to a draw. So, imagine what she could do when she was in the right?
As everyone watched, the naive boyâs cheeks flushed crimson from Calistaâs words. The crowd around. them seemed terrified by Mirabelleâs actions and began to sympathize more with Calista.
With gritted teeth, Mirabelle surprisingly pushed the boy aside and kowtow to Calista!
âCalliel
have no intention to evade blame! I was cr rinue that I acted immukively and mades migabe

Chapter 146 Mirabelle Acknowledges Her Mistakes
But a mistake is a mistake! I sincerely apologize to you. If you donât forgive me, Iâll stay here forever!â
As she spoke, she also made a fierce move. She kowtow to Calista once more, and she didnât stop. It was a sight that left one speechless!
âCallie! Iâm sorry! If you forgive me, Iâm willing to compensate you with ten million, and I promise to never show my face in front of you ever again!â
She kowtowed as she spoke. âIâm sorry! Please forgive me! I beg you!â
Kneeling was not an uncommon sight, everyone had seen it at some point. But kowtowing, that was intense. Most people couldnât bear to do it. To go to such lengths, she must have truly been remorseful, right?
As Mirabelle continued to bow and apologize, many onlookers couldnât help but sympathize with her.
If it were up to them, they would have forgiven her by now. After all, she seemed genuinely remorseful and Calista didnât appear to have suffered much.
Seeing this, some of Mirabelleâs close friends were absolutely livid. They felt humiliated seeing Mirabelle embarrassing herself in public.
And so, they rushed out and grabbed Mirabelle, forbidding her from kowtowing any further!
âMirabelle! Why do you insist on tormenting yourself like this! Itâs better to be in jail than to suffer her humiliations! Besides, if the judge sees your sincere remorse, heâll surely show you some leniency!â
They were all oblivious to the truth. If it hadnât been for Kallum, Mirabelle wouldnât have had to resort to such measures. She would have plenty of alternatives at her disposal. Even if imprisonment was inevitable, she could have arranged for a standâin.
However, once Kallum got involved and wanted Mirabelle to be imprisoned, it was as good as done! Otherwise, Mirabelle would never humiliate herself like that.
âNo⦠You donât understand⦠I truly realize my mistake, let me do this, itâll make me feel a bit better!â Mirabelle pushed the girls away, her expression full of genuine remorse!
âAs long as Callie is willing to forgive me, anything goes!â
After she finished speaking, she truly let go of all her reservations and continued to kowtow.
But did she truly harbor such a strong sense of righteousness in her heart?
Mirabelleâs mouth was nearly bleeding from biting down so hard! With every kowtow, she was inwardly cursing like a madwoman!
Very good, Calista. How dare you push me to such limits? In the future, I plan on sending you off to the poorest country to live the life of a lowly courtesan. Iâll even make sure youâre addicted to a potent drug! Youâll spend the rest of your life groveling at my feet like a dog! I wish for your familyâs downfall! I want you to spend your entire life toyed with by a bunch of filthy men! To endure a lifetime of humiliation and trampling!
With every bow she made, the resentment and curses within her deepened! By the end, a sickly smile surfaced on her face, and her forehead was bruised and bleeding.
