Last Life, She Laughed While I Died. This Life, She’ll Cry While I Watch Chapter 02
I kicked over the stool beside me with a sharp crash.
“Loosening up? Then why don’t you put your own information on those cards and see how much you go for?”
I glared at the three girls in front of me and enunciated every word.
“Enough talking. Come with me to Dean Taylor’s office, or I’m calling the police.”
The air went still for a few seconds.
Then all three of them burst into laughter.
Mandy lifted her chin, smug as ever.
“Even if you take this to my dad, what can you possibly do to me?”
I knew her too well.
She was only this arrogant because she thought I was still the girl from my last life—the one who swallowed every insult and backed down from everything.
But things were different now.
All that endless patience had ever done was destroy me.
I closed in on her and said, “If you’re not scared, let’s go right now.”
When Mandy realized I was serious, her expression froze. She hurriedly grabbed my arm.
“My dad is busy. He doesn’t have time to waste on you.”
“Since we’re friends, I might even let this slide and not tell him.”
Before Mandy could finish, I turned and walked away.
The second she saw me leaving for real, she rushed after me.
I thought everything would be easy to resolve as long as I found Dean Taylor, so I only sent my dad a quick text before hurrying downstairs.
The second I rushed out of the dorm, I crashed straight into someone.
I looked up and found Logan glaring down at me, his face cold with anger.
The disgust in his eyes was exactly the same as it had been in my last life.
Before I could react, he raised his hand and slapped me across the face so hard my ears rang.
“Savannah Shaw. I never knew you were such a slut.”
He gritted his teeth and sneered.
“You wouldn’t even let me kiss you, and now you want to act innocent?”
My cheek burned, but I didn’t even look up.
And this time, my heart did not hurt.
A man who could stop believing me over one sentence from Mandy had never been worth loving in the first place.
The slap was loud enough to draw a crowd almost instantly.
Mandy came running down after me, breathless.
The second she saw what was happening, she rushed to Logan’s side and asked in a trembling voice, “Logan? Why are you here?”
Logan immediately pulled her behind him, concern flashing across his face.
“Did she bully you?”
Mandy sniffled. “I just didn’t want Savvy bothering my dad over something so small.”
As she spoke, she glanced at me again.
“I guess it’s my fault. I’m her best friend, but I didn’t keep an eye on her. I let her go and do something like that.”
Logan’s face darkened the moment he heard that. He wrapped an arm around Mandy.
“Mandy, this isn’t your fault. Don’t waste your kindness on someone like her.”
“Savannah put herself up for sale. She has no self-respect, and now she thinks no one’s allowed to say it?”
Then he turned and shouted at me, “I should never have given someone like you a chance. We’re done.”
As soon as he said that, the crowd exploded.
The guys stared at me like they were already stripping me naked.
“Even Logan Bennett, her own boyfriend, said it. So the Hundred-Dollar Girl rumors are true?”
The girls glared at me like they wanted to burn holes through my face.
“She always acted so innocent. Turns out she’s wilder than anyone.”
The residence hall supervisor pushed her way through the crowd after hearing the commotion.
The moment she saw Mandy crying, she immediately looked sympathetic.
“What is going on here?”
Mandy sobbed quietly. “Savvy insisted on going to my dad and making a scene. I was scared that if she kept this up, she would ruin the reputation of the whole dorm.”
The residence hall supervisor flushed with anger, pointed at me, and started yelling.
“I knew there was something off about you. You’re always coming back late at night, and now I find out you’ve been doing something this shameless?”
“And you still have the nerve to bully Mandy?”
Mandy cried even harder and pointed at me.
“Actually, I’ve seen different men drop her off late at night more than once…”
“I just never thought she would get so desperate for money that she would bring that kind of business onto campus.”
The moment she said that, the crowd’s insults grew even louder.
