A classmate filmed the whole thing and posted it online, tagging my name. It went viral in no time. The university got roasted by netizens for how badly they were handling things.
Everyone started pushing me to admit I was wrong and just give up on my graduation. The whole situation spiraled fast, even catching the attention of the Department of Education.
The lecturer couldn’t take it anymore and stepped outside to call my parents, asking them to force me to apologize to Scott.
When he came back into the room, my coat had already been ripped off by my classmates.
My pants were torn at the leg where my amputation was, exposing the scar. People stepped back and I felt like the whole room was just staring at me, laughing.
I tried to stand up and grab my crutches, but one of Scott’s friends swung a stick at me, hitting me hard.
“You want your cane? Beg me for it. Maybe I’ll give it back!” he sneered, hitting my knee so I dropped to the floor.
He stomped on my hand, crushing it as he glared at me. “Scott, what do we do with this bitch? I’m listening,” he said.
Scott just straightened his collar and spit on my head like he was some kind of god. “Well, we should send her to the club to sell her body.”
He leaned down close to me, his voice low enough that only I could hear. “Don’t blame me. If you’ve got anyone to blame, it’s your bad luck.
“25 thousand dollars a night, that’s a steal for someone like you. You’ll be set for decades.”
He snapped his fingers and someone started dragging me out. I was so beaten down I couldn’t even put up a fight and all I could taste was blood. All I could do was shoot him a furious look.
On the way down the stairs, the guy holding me “accidentally” pushed me and I tumbled down, my body rolling with every step.
I was almost out cold by the time I hit the bottom. Then, I could hear my parents freaking out. "Savannah? What happened?"
Scott’s face went pale and he rushed over to me. "Dad, Mom, what are you doing here?"
That caught everyone off guard. My parents didn’t even look at him, just yanked me away from him.
My mom was crying, eyes red and full of panic. "Savannah, are you okay? How did this happen? Wasn’t it your defense today?
"How did you fall? Are you in pain? Don’t worry, we’ll take you to the hospital right away. You’re gonna be fine, sweetheart."
Dad was shaking with anger, his voice booming across the room. "Who touched my daughter? Step up right now! I swear, I’ll tear you apart!"
"Speak up! You’re all quiet now? Fine, I’ll pull the surveillance footage. If any of you laid a finger on her, I’ll make sure you never show your face in Redsphire again!"
The students were eyeing my parents, whispering, clearly judging them by the cheap clothes they were wearing.
"You? Who do you think you are? You think you can threaten me? Not in a million years."
"Yeah, two broke parents raised a crippled plagiarist and they still have the nerve to talk like this? Pathetic."
"Go ask around. Everyone knows Kane Chandler from Redsphire. What the hell do you poor folks think you can do? It’d be a favor if you just got rid of this bitch! Hey Scott, what did you just call them? Are you out of your mind?"
