I have never felt so humiliated in my life before. Even when my family refused to introduce me during public functions, I never considered it a disgrace. However, standing in front of hundreds of students, soaked in red liquid, made me feel a level of disgrace I had never experienced. They laughed and took pictures of me, and I couldn't do anything because I felt utterly powerless.
If only one person had stepped forward to rescue me from the shame I was enduring at that moment. The headmistress, whom I had believed I could depend on, did nothing to intervene until he took a stand.
Yes, him—Prince Mason.
He strode to the front of the hall and approached me. Without uttering a word, he seized my hand and pulled me down, prompting gasps from both students and the headmistress.
