RHTMAV) Chapter 6 Part 2 (Patreon)

“How dare you! I may not be your real mother but I am still an elder!” Linda shrieked at the top of her lungs.

“An elder does not blame someone as soon as they walk through the door telling them to kneel and apologize! I am sure you have watched Cinderella. I have both a wicked step-mother and a wicked step-sister. Hell, I even have a wicked step-brother as well. I will be sure to tell Father about this when I get home.” I loved seeing her burst out in anger. I keep pushing her more and more. I do wonder when she will reach her breaking point where the kid tricks end and the adult tricks begin.

Anyway, they were only the start of my games today. I still had one more person I had to deal with. David Folson was supposed to run into me today after school. When I first met him in my past life we had bumped into each other at the school gate. I had no idea who he was but his smile had captivated me from the start. He transfered into our school the next day but was not in my class. He was in Maria’s class. A few days later, we would meet again, and he would start to chase after me until I finally said yes.

But I wonder now if he would even be willing to do what he did last time when he saw the new me. I do not wish to toot my own horn, but I am much more beautiful than Maria. Of course, I will not use my feminine wiles to catch his attention either.

“Miss Alastor is correct, Mrs. Thatcher. If you wish to gain respect, you must first earn it. But it seems the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. In Miss Alastor’s words, an evil step-mother can only give birth to more evil. Maria, from this moment on, I want you to stay far from my daughter or else. I will also be doing an investigation. If it turns out that you have something to do with my daughter’s current situation, I will be sure to send you a lawyer's letter.” Mrs. Ames was not happy, but I was.

I was really happy. After all, I just took out one of Maria’s best allies. Rachel bullied me to the point that many would think of suicide in my past life. But I preserved and graduated to gain my freedom. But now, that loaded gun would become her enemy. It is pretty easy to say a few words here and there that will cause her to turn on Maria. I really wonder just how she will deal with it.

 I will slowly make Maria’s school life worse and worse so she can experience all the pain and anguish I went through. I will make her come to me and beg to let her off. If she is lucky, maybe I will even use her as a gofer.

“Mr. Blackwood, my wife and I will take our leave. We need to take our daughter to the hospital and file a proper report. Principal, don’t worry, we will not mention the things that happened in school. Just please watch out for my daughter when she returns.” Mr. Ames was a good father. He was willing to do what he could for his daughter and would not allow her to be used. It’s funny how a single misstep can cause one's downfall. And Maria’s downfall was just beginning.

“Since that is the case, we will end things here. As per Miss Alastor’s suggestion, Maria Thatcher will be suspended from school for a week and will need to apologize publicly to her for causing this incident.” I raised an eyebrow and looked at the principal in surprise. I had only said that in passing I never thought it would actually happen. I couldn’t help but look over at Sophia, who gave me a bright smile and a thumbs up, and only then did I realize that she probably got her brother to say something. It was really nice having a friend who was a demon in disguise.

Mr. and Mrs. Ames left, leaving Sophia and her brother, along with the principal, Linda, and Maria. And myself, of course. It was only now that things began to sink in for Maria.

“What!? Why should I apologize!? Why am I being suspended!? I never did anything!” Maria tried to plead her case. The tears in her eyes were starting to well up. I wonder how long it has been since she had had such a setback like this. Ah. This feeling inside me that is slowly welling up. It’s pure ecstasy! Her face. Her panicked expression. The way her whole body is trembling. I love it all!

“Principal Mason, I do not think it is fair to put the full blame on my daughter! She has nothing to do with this. It’s Rachel’s fault for running her mouth not Maria’s! Maria can not control what other people say! Plus there is no proof that Maria instigated any of this!” Linda’s face was bright red with anger. She really had no control over her emotions.

“Hmm? But I have proof right here.” I raised my hand, which had a pen in it and clicked the button at the top. Slowly, today's events echoed through the room.

“Look at this bitch. She still dares to come to school. I heard you were selling your body to greasy old men.”

 “Oh! Rachel Black Panty. What brings you here? You wish to lie on the floor again? What’s this about old greasy men? Did you sleep with your father or something?”

“You! I was talking about you! You slut!”

 “Sister, you shouldn’t change the subject. There are witnesses. I really wish I could protect you, but…”

“As you can tell this was recorded before Sophia acted. The sounds of the food court are clear as well. As you can hear at the end there Maria had to open her mouth and push the issue even more which resulted in pushing Rachel to continue slandering me. If she had not spoken at that time then things would not have escalated as they did. This just proves that miss pure over there is blacker than the deepest abyss. Using people who consider her a friend and then not protecting them when they are in trouble. Linda I hope you can understand that your daughter is far from innocent. Oh right, I accidentally sent this to Mrs. Ames just now as well.” Yes, these are the expressions I wanted the most. They wish to dig my eyeballs out!

Maria lost it and jumped at me while screaming: “BITCH!”
