Aaron Cheney held up the envelope emblazoned with "Veridia University" for everyone to see. "Look, everyone! She tore up Vera Xavier's acceptance letter and still won't admit it!"
Given Cara Preston's recent track record, and now seeing the shredded Veridia University letter, no one believed a word she said. Instead, they hurled even uglier accusations at her.
Cara Preston was stomping her feet in fury. It finally dawned on her—this was all a setup orchestrated by Vera Xavier. She roared, "You're all in this together, ganging up on me!"
With no other way to vent her overwhelming fury, she lunged at Vera Xavier, her fingernails aimed at her face like claws.
But Vera Xavier was ready. She immediately leaped a good distance to the side and pointed an aggrieved finger at Cara Preston. "You tore up my acceptance letter, and now you're attacking me!"
This immediately sparked the crowd's fury, and people surged forward to restrain Cara Preston.
