The police arrived quickly.
After I provided the chat records as evidence, they took both Lucinda and Caspian into custody.
Lucinda panicked, immediately calling her father for help.
Mr. Fairchild, doting on his only daughter, instantly tried pulling strings to get her released.
But when he brought lavish gifts and went to beg for help, no one even opened their doors.
He had no choice but to watch helplessly as Lucinda spent three nights in a detention cell.
By the time both she and Caspian were released, the school had already expelled them.
Lucinda was so furious her eyes turned red. She ranted incessantly at home: "Rosalie Vesper, you disgusting little rat!"
This time, Caspian didn't stand by her side to join in. Instead, he took advantage of an unguarded moment and knocked on the door of my family's villa.
That evening, my parents had invited some friends over for dinner. After everyone left, I stayed back to tidy up.
Because there were still people around, I wasn't afraid of Caspian trying anything, so I let him in.
Caspian's eyes were red, his expression pitifully vulnerable.
His appearance had always been his strongest asset. In the past, whenever he showed this face, Lucinda would immediately empty her wallet for him.
But I simply sat on the sofa, looking at him coldly. "What do you want to say?"
In a hoarse voice, Caspian began, "Rosalie, you know how poor my family is. If it weren't for Lucinda's help, I would've dropped out of school by now. But after what happened last time, the Fairchild family stopped supporting me. I have dreams, Rosalie. I don't want to spend my life in poverty."
I replied flatly, "And?"
"Rosalie, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have betrayed you. I shouldn't have leaked your photos. I'm here to apologize. If you can't forgive me, I understand, but please talk to your father. Ask him to sponsor me again..."
I let out a scornful laugh. "Are you serious? What makes you think I'd agree to that?"
"I know I'm being delusional. But I'm begging you. I have nothing left. Just my body. If you want it, take it."
As he spoke, Caspian began unbuttoning his shirt.
In the next moment, his white shirt fell away, revealing his lean torso.
