Class Villainess

Chapter 183 – Darthmorth Gossip Girls’ Instagram Page (1)

"How could Natasha subdue the rumor? Shouldn't it be big news in the school?"

That big question lingered in our heads as Anita hung up the phone because we found it impossible.

Darthmorth was the only middle school and high school in such a big region, and it hadn't changed for a couple of decades. Even the rich kids had to go here because the nearest private school was so far away from their home they might as well move out of the area. 

So, this school was basically an overcrowded Rome gladiator arena, but with a lot of catfights for the girls and beating up the weak for the boys. This school was a free for all slaughter fest for those who were stronger or more influential and the deepest hell for those who became the prey.

That was why any rumor spread around like wildfire in Darthmorth, mostly malicious ones. From light stuff such as cheating on an exam, until something big like the bullying and sexual assault by Thomas, Jorge, and Jackson, or Kristen's manipulative behavior that led a girl to her death by suicide, or Leah Carpenter, who now had the title of Drug Queen of Darthmorth. 

Yeah, my mission basically made the majority of the big news here. 

There was also a cult of Mason Hall's crazy fangirls. They were rabid and crazy as heck. They would stalk and beat the hell out of any girl who dared to flirt with him, a total crazy bitch move. 

"How could news like this just go under the rug? Natasha Zest literally slept with Jordan to cheat on Anita. It should be a big scandal, right?" I asked.

"I know, it's not even talked about by anyone in my class. Knowing how fierce Anita is, I bet she has told everyone about it, but still, no rumors…." Elise confirmed.

We stared at each other in confusion, feeling that this really didn't add up. 

"Elise, do you ever heard any rumor about Natasha Zest that was circulating around? Well, except when you are explicitly asking about her around the school, of course."

"No, not really, actually. Both Natasha and Barbara actually have no rumor at all around the sophomore. They are bitchy, of course. But they are not really the worst. There are so many bitchy girls around the school anyway. Just like how there were so many bastard boys who don't know how to respect anyone," Elise replied. She then took out her phone and opened Instagram. 

"What are you doing?" I asked curiously. 

"I'm checking the Darthmorth gossip page on Instagram. It's exclusive for my batch, though. It's also a private account, so only the sophomore knows about this page," Elise replied. She showed it to me, and I read the username and the bio.

Okay… this was… new.

I never saw this page before. Maybe it was really exclusive for the sophomore or the second year of Darthmorth high school right now. But it seemed to contain a lot—even almost all the rumors and gossip circulating around the school, even the ones from my batch and the third year, aka senior. 

It also had tons of posts already, written in a black background and white Arial font as the gossip girls of Darthmorth started making baseless rumors, from the light one about cheating on an exam to the crazy gossip, such as:

—

Leah Carpenter, a freshman that got caught and titled as The Drug Queen of Darthmorth. Yeah, she has been screwing around with the rest of the boxing club. That puss is definitely loose af, hihi~

—

Okay, that was a half-truth and half lie. From what I gathered before taking her down, and also the rumors circulating about her in the previous life, Leah Carpenter was a bitch, but she didn't fuck with all of the boxing club members. 

She was still very picky, but once she liked someone, she would chase him relentlessly, just like what she did with Logan before. 

It also made me wonder if Logan would eventually fall to the temptation if Leah kept on her pursuit before getting sentenced to a very long jail time. 

"There is also a rumor about me, Em. But they didn't leak my name explicitly. It seems that they only put on initials for rumors that haven't been out for public consumption," Elise said as she clicked on one post. 

—

You know, there is a girl, just call her EL.

EL has been talking shit to everyone in many classes. And got her karma by getting sexually assaulted by three boys. 

Hihi, that's why you shouldn't be talking shit in front of your classmates. Now she is so depressed, she might kill herself soon. Good for her.

—

…

Holy shit, that was nasty. Elise was literally beaten and sexually assaulted, and this account just laughed at her misfortune as if it was some kind of cute, harmless joke. 

I glanced at Elise, and her expression wasn't actually that different.

"You're not angry at this post?" I asked. 

"No, not anymore at least," Elise sighed. "When I first read it after I got sexually assaulted, I was so devastated that it basically accelerated my depression. I really thought about ending it all because I just find it too crazy and malicious at the same time."

"But it's a good thing that you came to my life at the right time, Em. I think if you came a bit too early, I would completely reject and kick you out of my life. But if you came too late… you know what would happen."

Urgh, I got Helena 2.0 here. If I came too late into Elise's life, she would end her life tragically and would never taste revenge.

Now I wondered what happened to Elise in my previous life. I never met her there. If Noah actually committed suicide the next year after getting severely bullied, I assumed that Elise might've committed suicide somewhere else, maybe in a mental institute. 

"Then, why are you checking this trash account? You know most of the posts here are malicious and exaggerated, right?" I asked. 

"Yes, I'm just checking if there is a rumor about Natasha Zest or Barbara Cornwell here. Because this page has TONS of rumors. It would be impossible if there is zero rumor about them, right?"

…

Thus, Elise and I continued scrolling just in case we could find any rumor regarding Natasha Zest or Barbara Cornwell.

We spent literally half an hour checking hundreds of posts. Once we hit the earliest post, there was literally zero rumor about them. They had rumors about Jessica Lambert and even goddamn Chrissy Miles. That unimportant side bitch you didn't care about.

They were all had rumors here. But there was none for Natasha and Barbara. 

Which was literally impossible since they weren't the cleanest girls here. Barbara was a bitch who constantly fought with random girls for the smallest problem. And Natasha… well, I finally heard about her here. Natasha and Barbara were friends in my previous life, but they were nowhere near close, at least not in public. 

But if we linked how Elise and Natasha had a small fight which led to Thomas and his gang beating up Elise.

I could connect the relationship between Natasha and Barbara. Because only Barbie could order Thomas around, especially if Natasha had the money.

After we hit the earliest post without result, Elise and I stared at each other. We sort of formulated the same suspicion after checking everything. 

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking, Em?" Elise asked. 

"Yeah, it seems so," I nodded. "I think we have the same thought, Elise."

"It's just very weird that someone like Natasha and Barbara is not on this list. They are also problematic as hell," I started making theories that might be true at this point. "And the fact that the gossip page knows about your sexual assault… it tells me Natasha and Barbara have some sort of connection to this Instagram page.

"I have the same suspicion too. It's weird that they don't have a single rumor about them. Anita literally made a ruckus about Natasha sleeping with her ex-boyfriend, Jordan. How is that not on the gossip page?" Elise also raised the same question. 

"You know, I actually have an even scarier theory," I said, thinking this theory might actually be true as well. 

"What is it?"

"I think Natasha Zest and Barbara 'Barbie' Cornwell are the real owners of the gossip page. They know about your sexual assault, and they never posted any rumors about themselves."

…

…

Elise and I stared at each other for a while. I was quite speechless, just like how she was speechless as well. 

"I think we need to research more about this.. Because if our suspicion is true, we can definitely use this as a weapon."
