RedNovelChapter 1030
Halsey pulled out her phone and started dialing 911.
The big guy glanced at Sierra, and she gave him a quick look, telling him to run.
He bolted out the door.
A few classmates shouted after him, “What, you scared now? | thought you were so tough you'd stick around for
the cops!”
But the man was long gone.
Everyone rushed over to Halsey instead.
“Halsey, you were amazing!” one girl said, her voice still shaky.
“I was so scared | could barely breathe,” another admitted. “But you weren't. You stood up to him like it
was nothing!”
Halsey shook her head, serious as ever. “Listen. When your safety’s on the line, fear won't help you. The only
thing that works is the law. Always protect yourself with it.”
Zada grinned and stuck up her thumb. “You're the best!”
Sierra was silent, her face filled with frustration. She had put on this whole performance, and somehow it was
Halsey who walked away the hero.
Everyone was crowded around Halsey, cheering her on. What about Sierra, the supposed victim?
Sierra forced herself back into the spotlight. “Halsey... Thank you for what you did.”
Halsey gave her a small smile. “Don’t mention it. Anyone else would've done the same.”

Sierra's eyes welled up again. “But... That's my dad. He ran away today, but what about tomorrow? He could
cback anytime. I'm really scared.”
She sniffled, watching Halsey’s reaction carefully. Then she added, “I don’t even feel safe going hanymore. |
don’t have a hnow. Where am | supposed to stay?”
Zada jumped in right away. “Sierra, you can stay with me!”
But Sierra shook her head fast. “Your place doesn’t have a spare room. And you've got your sister-in-law
staying over.”
She reached out and held Halsey’s hand. “Halsey... Could | maybe stay at your place for a little while?”
What Sierra really wanted was’to move into Halsey and Shaun's big house.

You want to stay at my place?” Halsey asked, a little taken aback.
Sierra let out a soft sob. “If it's too much trouble, forget | asked. | know it’s a lot. But | only have two real friends-
Zada and you | didn’t know who else to turn to ”
Zads looked between them “Halsey, maybe let her stay a couple of nights? She won't be any trouble.”
Sierra jumped in quickly. “Yeah, Halsey, please! You're the best.”
Halsey hesitated, then nodded. ‘Alright. You can stay at my place for now.”
Sierre’s whole face lit up. “Thank you! You're such a good friend.”
She threw her arms around Halsey, hugging her tightly. As she smiled into Halsey’s shoulder, a sly grin curled at
the corner of her lips.
Halsey had taken the bait. She was officially in.
Halsey just said calmly, “Don’t thank me. We're friends. That’s what friends do.”
Sierra beamed. “T’ll go pack my stuff right now.”
With that, she hurried off, practically skipping.

Halsey didn’t reply to her suggestion. Instead, she asked, “How did you and Sierra meet?”
Zade blinked “Why do you ask?”
“Just curious,” Halsey said “I don’t remember you ever mentioning her before.”
