Chapter 38
Bailey withdrew her hand and casually rubbed her nose as she disclosed, "I got into a scuffle this
afternoon."
"With who?" Naomi inquired.
"It's all in the past, Naomi. Don't bother asking," Bailey dismissed casually.
"Bailey, don't leave me in the dark," Naomi warned.
Bailey knew Naomi's temperament well. Despite her usual cheerfulness, crossing her boundaries might lead to unexpected consequences.
"I met Madelyn this afternoon. She had more people with her, and I couldn't handle it," Bailey explained.
As Naomi headed for the door, Bailey grabbed her and asked, "Where are you going?"
Naomi's expression soured. "Do you think I can just sit back and do nothing about it-seeing you like this?"
Bailey firmly held onto her. "Naomi, it's over, and this isn't just about Madelyn. Please don't act impulsively."
Sensing an underlying message, Naomi suppressed her anger. "Fine, I won't act rashly. Tell me everything." Seated at the table, Bailey recounted, "A few days ago, I had a confrontation with Estelle at home. I think she and Pauline held a grudge against me for that, so they teamed up with Madelyn."
Estelle Jenkins was Bailey's stepsister. Bailey's mother had passed away when she was only a year and a half old. Her father had remarried Pauline Lewis, who was already eight months pregnant with Estelle at
the time.
Since childhood, Pauline hadn't been fond of Bailey and had often mistreated her when her father was
away.
After the middle school incident, Bailey's relationship with her father became strained due to Pauline's Influence. Thus, Bailey's days at home were far from pleasant.
Listening intently, Naomi asked, "Apart from your face, are there any other injuries? Did you get a checkup at the hospital?"
"It's just some cuts and bruises. I got kicked in the lower abdomen, causing some bleeding, but it's nothing serious. I've had it checked," Balley replied.
Hearing about the bleeding pained Naomi deeply. She understood that Madelyn had targeted Bailey Intentionally and brought people over for a fight.
Madelyn didn't dare to confront Naomi directly, and she had noticed that Bailey wasn't favored at home. Hence, she had chosen to deliberately target Bailey.
"Are you really okay?"

"Don't worry! I can take care of myself. How else could I face them both?" Balley reassured.
"Alright. I trust you." Naomi served Bailey some chicken soup. "Eat more. Don't be so stubborn next time. And next time there's trouble, you should run if there are too many people."
