Vengeful in Love - Chapter 20：Fake news?

Cathy replied, “I believe you. What should we do about this?”

Renae sighed then typed, “I honestly have no idea…”

“Then should I tell Matthew and Kaiden about this?”

She immediately started typing, “No, don’t. I don’t want them to worry about me.”

“Alright.” But she still planned to tell them.

They ended their conversation there.

Cathy then created a group chat and sent the information to Matthew and Kaiden.

Matthew replied, “We’ll keep an eye on Min… Earlier, on the way home, a car was following behind us. Is that Min’s doing?”

“Most probably. She’s always doing bad deeds to others ever since secondary school,” Cathy replied back to Matthew.

“It’s getting serious… I’ve just seen the article on Renae. We need to do something about this,” Kaiden replied.

Cathy asked the both of them,”So what do you suggest we do?”

“Kaiden and I can prevent Min from getting close to Renae. As for you, report to us if you have any news about Renae,” Matthew suggested.

“Ok,” the two of the replied.

That night, Renae couldn’t sleep. She kept thinking about what the staff and students in the school might think of her… the comments that they would say. At that moment, her phone vibrated. It was a message from both Matthew and Kaiden. Matthew sent her, “Don’t be scared. I’m here for you.”

Kaiden told her, “Don’t care about what others think about you. Sleep well tonight.”

Once she finished reading, she switched off her phone and looked up at the ceiling as she laid on her bed. What great friends I have, what did I do to deserve them? Renae thought to herself.

Taking Kaiden’s and Matthew’s words to heart, she slept soundly.

The next morning, Matthew still drove over to pick Renae up.

Renae got into his car and asked, “You’ve seen the photos haven’t you?”

“Yeah,” he replied nonchalantly.

“Then why are you still here to pick me up? Won’t you be bothered about what others will say?”

“No matter what others say, I’m still your friend. Friends are here for each other.”

His words made Renae smile.

They arrived at school in a few minutes time. The students were gossiping and talking about them like it was the first day of school, just that it was negative this time.

“Ignore them,” Matthew said, putting his arm around her shoulder.

Renae nodded to him, trying to stay strong.

Kaiden lost his cool when he saw Matthew’s arm around Renae. But he tried not to show it on his face.

Kaiden was standing infront of school waiting for Renae as it was yet again another Mother Tongue lesson. Kaiden saw Min rushing from inside the school towards Matthew but he stopped her.

“What do you think you are doing?” Min stared at Kaiden then continued to say, “Get your hands off me.”

Kaiden looked back at her coldly and said, “Stay away from Renae.”

“Why should I? Who are you? You can’t tell me what to do! You aren’t my parent,” she shouted back at him.

“So you are saying that if I were your parent, I can tell you what to do?” He replied back with a smirk.

Min rolled her eyes and walked the other direction, away from Matthew and Renae.

Matthew and Renae approached Kaiden. Matthew said to him, “I’ll leave her to you for now.” Kaiden nodded his head.

“Ooo what did you do to make Min leave huh?” Renae asked Kaiden.

“Nothing much…”

“Okay then.”

In the middle of class, Kaiden whispered to her, “Meet me after school, at the café nearby school.” She was confused as to why he wanted to meet her but she still agreed to go.

The last lesson, Renae told Matthew that he doesn’t have to send her home that day and that Kaiden will. Matthew was getting jealous inside, is it because he’s better than me? So she doesn’t want to go home with me anymore?

——Skip to café———

“Here, listen to this,” Kaiden said as he passed his phone and earpiece to Renae.

Renae listened to it, and asked, “What’s this? Isn’t that Mr Ng and… is that Min’s mother?”

“Yeah… So basically Mr Ng is going to go against us on the day itself. We can use this evidence against Mr Ng.”

“Yes. Have you informed the police yet?”

“Not yet. I’ll inform them now.”

The police replied, said that they’ll hire another lawyer and that they’ll go with Kaiden’s plan.
