She'd stayed at the orphanage until she was 15 years old and had been forced to get a job instead of attending university

Unable to handle the jeering and mockery, she and Rebecca had gotten into a fight again. Then, they'd both fallen Into the pool.

As the memories flooded her mind, the resentment and hatred she'd harbored in her past life overwhelmed her. She stood up and asked, "Why should I apologize?

"What do you mean, and why should you apologize? You almost killed Becky! What's with your attitude?" Tanya looked at Madison with ambeture of anger and disappointment...

Everyone present had clearly witnessed what had happened, so Rebecca's words only made the sympathize with her and think about how did she was. At the same time, they

Ith Madison was cruel and rude.

"You're wrong, I did it on purpose." Madison approached Rebecca, her face devoid of emotion as water dripped from her clothes and hair. She looked like a ghost that had emerged from the water. Then, she said something that stunned the crowd. "I wanted you to die."

"How could you say something like that, Madison?" Tanya's expression became steely with anger. She subconsciously shielded Rebecca behind her as if tersified Madison would her Rebecca
