The Many Faces of a Vengeful Heiress Chapter 156
Summer's thoughts were going everywhere.She was already certain that the cakes were from Mason. But how did he know that she liked chestnut cakes? As far as she remembered, only Phoebe and Rose knew about it. Even Henry and her parents were clueless about it.Phoebe didn't know Mason, and there was definitely no way Rose had a chance to tell him.So, where did Mason find out about it?Phoebe was worried she would disturb Summer's afternoon rest, so she didn't stay long and left.Lying on her bed, Summer held the starry necklace between her fingers. "Mason, oh, Mason, just how many things have you done for me that I don't know about?"Then, she let out a heavy sigh and clutched the necklace tightly in her palm.She owed Mason her life—no, she owed him much more than that. With such a bond between them, it was foolish of her to have thought that she would be able to avoid that dangerous man.Whatever. Summer decided she would just take things as they came.…Time flew by.Aft

Rose was slowly packing her things nearby.The gossiping students quickly noticed her and immediately shifted their attention. "Rose, what do you think about Summer and Anthony?"She shook her head. "I don't know. But Anthony did come over to our house to tutor us before, and he was pretty close to her. They even went out late at night to look at roses together…""A man and a woman looking at roses in the middle of the night? Please! They were probably…"The discussions in the classroom grew more and more out of hand.Rose quietly listened, occasionally chiming in. She made it look like she was trying to defend Summer, but everything she said implied that Summer and Anthony had a suggestive relationship.…By the time Summer got home, Phoebe had already prepared a delicious meal for her.Phoebe informed, "Mr. Hartford Senior and your parents won't be home for dinner tonight, but they've cleared their schedules for the next two days to spend time with you.When she saw Summer s

Summer looked at the woman. She wasn't one to go around stirring up trouble, but she wasn't afraid to fight back when trouble came knocking, either."And who are you?" she asked."Summer, this is Mrs. Hunt of Royal Financial Group," Janice gently introduced the woman.Summer's heart sank for a moment.There was only one person in the Royal Financial Group who could be called Mrs. Hunt. It was Chandler's mother, Rosanna Moon. No wonder Rosanna had been looking at Summer like she wanted to shoot her. It all made sense now.Summer had a look of surprise on her face as she looked at Phoebe. "Mrs. Hunt of Royal Financial Group? Has Mason gotten married? Why didn't I hear about it?"At that moment, the air in the room turned icy cold.Her past life had taught Summer that sometimes, there was no use acting weak or humble. This was precisely one of those situations.Chandler's limbs were broken, but those on his side were likely too scared to go against Mason. Otherwise, there would

Janice supposed that it was revenge for Chandler.Just thinking about Chandler made her heart flare up in anger again.She had been searching everywhere for him, but it seemed like Summer had done something behind the scenes. It felt like Chandler had just disappeared into thin air. It had already been half a month, but she hadn't been able to find a single piece of news.Rosanna had never been humiliated like this before. She completely lost her mind as she shrieked, "You little bitch! I swear I'll tear that lying mouth of yours apart!"As she said that, she shoved aside her men and kicked off her heels, charging barefoot at Summer.Summer pushed Phoebe away, but she didn't move out of the way herself. She waited until Rosanna was just a step away before she spoke in a calm tone, "Mrs. Hunt, you'd better think this through. Do you think you can afford to lay a hand on me?"Rosanna had lifted her hand high in the air, but she froze when she heard Summer's words. "Are you threaten

Rosanna never expected Summer to suddenly change into a different person. Just moments ago, Summer only seemed like a sharp-tongued girl. Yet, the next moment, Rosanna felt like she saw a shadow of Mason behind her."That's all I have to say. If you like this dress, Mrs. Hunt, you can have it. Phoebe, let's go shop somewhere else," Summer said.The moment Summer took a step back, she turned back into that lively, innocent girl from before. As she brushed past Janice, she even said, "Good luck with your SATs.""You, too." Janice was in a complete stupor.She had just been dreaming about Rosanna putting Summer in her place right here. Yet, the untouchable and dominant Rosanna seemed to have been put in her place by Summer instead.How was that possible?Then, Janice suddenly recalled what Rose told her before. Summer had managed to latch onto someone more powerful, which was why she had discarded Chandler so ruthlessly.Could it be…Could the person backing her be the rumored M

"You probably don't know of Mrs. Hunt's methods. A few years ago, a friend of mine knew a young girl who was sent to work at her estate. The girl didn't even last six months before she was dead," Phoebe said with a face full of worry.Summer frowned slightly. "Dead?""Yes. The Hunt family has always been terrifying, but people seem to have forgotten about them in the past few years because of Mason's notorious reputation. Mrs. Hunt's husband is a pervert who regularly harasses the women who work at their home," Phoebe started.She continued, "Mrs. Hunt never blames her husband for it. Any time something like that happens, the one affected is always those female workers. The girl I mentioned just now died because of this."After a moment, Phoebe shook her head. "She really died such a horrible death."Summer lowered her head. "I'm not some little girl. If she insists on making trouble, the one who dies won't be me."Phoebe was stunned for a moment, not making out the latter part o

"Do you remember the suggestion you gave me last time?" Henry asked."You mean to look into the trouble caused by those people again?" Summer replied.Henry nodded. "Yes.""Did you find anything?" Summer asked."Yes," Henry lowered his gaze. For a moment, it seemed to Summer like Henry had aged a few years.Her heart ached. She knew Henry had probably called her over because he had uncovered the mastermind behind the scenes. It also meant that he had probably discovered the traitors beside him.Henry had trained those two with care. He would definitely feel disappointed that they betrayed him.But it was just a momentary pain. Getting rid of the rot now was still better than being consumed by it in the future.Henry took off his glasses and asked tiredly, "Do you still remember Mr. Law and Mr. Yard, who gave you a house for your birthday two years ago?""I do." Summer nodded.He let out a heavy sigh. "The two of them came from very poor families. I sponsored their studies e

Summer asked pitifully, "Grandpa, is this going to be a big problem? Should I just go and apologize?""Did she provoke you first?" Henry asked.Summer nodded vigorously. "Yes! She was the one who started it!""Then, you did nothing wrong. There's no need to apologize," Henry said decisively."I know I did nothing wrong, but what if she tries to take revenge on Hartford Group?" Summer mumbled."That's for me to worry about. She's not some major figure in Royal Financial Group. She might be able to bully the weak, but she doesn't have the power to touch me so easily," Henry said arrogantly.Summer beamed. "That's great! But sometimes, it's better to offend a nobleman than a petty person. I feel like Mrs. Hunt is incredibly petty. You need to be careful, Grandpa.""Yes." Henry nodded. Then, for some reason, he slammed his hand on the desk violently, making Summer jump in fright."Once again, it's Mason Hunt's fault!" Henry exclaimed.Summer was exasperated. "How is this his fault

"I got it." Summer knew that going head-to-head with the Hunt family this time must have caused Mason to be caught in the middle of some immense pressure and criticism.So, she didn't want him to worry about her too much.Chandler's incident had stirred massive public attention following Summer's live stream. In the next two days, more and more people were speaking out online.The police department responsible for the investigation was finally compelled to issue a statement, promising a lawful and thorough investigation into the case.Paul's family had rested at the Hartford residence for a day before they started to recover a little."We won't hold the funeral here. Our family back home is already handling the arrangements," said Paul's wife, Bailey Oak. Her eyes were still swollen from crying.Kristen nodded. "Alright. Don't worry. Mr. West has worked with our family for over ten years. He was practically one of us, so we'll make sure to take care of your family in the future."

"You know how vicious the Hunt family can be. Back then, I…" Kristen instinctively pressed her hand to her lower abdomen with an expression of grief. "I'm afraid of losing another child."Luke had an expression that was full of heartache. He gently pulled Kristen into his arms. "That won't happen. From now on, we will face everything together. We'll definitely protect Summer."Can I really do that?" Kristen's tears fell uncontrollably.Back then, she thought she could protect the child in her belly, too. But in the end…Luke said firmly, "You can. You definitely can. My wife has always been the strongest person I know!""Yes." Kristen nodded as she leaned against his shoulder.They had never spoken of that pain over the past 20 years. This was the first time. Summer's actions today had been like a key that unlocked this long-suppressed wound in Kristen's heart.Neither of them knew that Summer hadn't gone to sleep, either. She stood at the window in her room and could just see th

"Something like that happened?" Rosanna looked shocked. She had been locked up at the time.Jane sighed deeply. "I just heard about it, too. The kidnappers told her not to go to the police. They said they'd kill the kids if she did. In the end, she didn't report it and ended up paying 70 million dollars in ransom."Jane sighed again. "But she ran into some real monsters. After they got the money, they sent her a location to get the kids. When she got there, all she saw were their decomposing bodies!"Rosanna covered her mouth. "Oh, my God! Did they catch the kidnappers in the end?"Jane shook her head regretfully. "They were professionals, so how could anyone catch them? She lost her money and her children. Mrs. Mills fell seriously ill and is still in the hospital.""Those kidnappers are truly heartless!" Rosanna said."They were only missing for three days. Based on the state of the bodies, the kids were probably killed the moment they were kidnapped," Jane said.As Rosanna lis

Jane always outshone Rosanna in every way, so how could Rosanna possibly like her?Jane said softly, "Rosanna, I know you don't like me, but you're still family. I know you're just a straightforward and blunt person. You've never meant me any harm.Rosanna rolled her eyes internally at that. Jane couldn't be more wrong."I don't want you and Aspen to get divorced." Jane helped Rosanna sit down and crouched to examine her ankle. "It's sprained. I'll call a doctor.""No!" Rosanna was incredibly vulnerable at that moment.A vulnerable person's greatest weakness was someone being gentle to them.Jane frowned. "How could you not see a doctor? Just wait here. I'll go quietly. I'll make sure no one notices and bring the doctor over. No one will find out."After a pause, Jane continued, "I won't tell anyone about the divorce, either."Rosanna's ankle was throbbing with pain. After a moment of hesitation, she nodded. "Don't tell everyone!"Jane smiled gently and went off to find the doc

"As lawyers, we only need to achieve the desired outcome for our client. Nothing else matters," Malcolm said.The assistant fell silent.Aspen slumped down onto the hospital bed, looking defeated, while Rosanna sobbed uncontrollably."Enough crying. Go check on Mom," Aspen said impatiently.Rosanna choked out, "I refuse! Your mother never liked me to begin with. With what happened to Chandler, both of us are responsible as his parents, but your mother will definitely only blame me! You can go if you want!"After that, Rosanna grabbed her purse."Where are you going?" Aspen asked."I'm going to figure out a way to save my son!" Rosanna snapped and started to walk off.Aspen grabbed her arm. "I'm warning you. Don't go after Kristen again! This has nothing to do with her!""Kristen, Kristen! She's all you care about, even now. Her daughter stood there and humiliated you in front of everyone, making you out to be some creepy stalker, and you're still defending her?" Rosanna finally

"Chandler from that certain all-powerful family underwent a psychological evaluation every six months at his school abroad. Just over two months ago, when he had just returned to the country, he had one done. "His mental state is fine. You parents might've been driven crazy by anger, but not him."There was a frenzy online.The original post was quickly deleted, but people had already saved screenshots of all the relevant documents.Inside the Hunt residence, Aspen's hand was wrapped in gauze when he heard what the lawyer had to say. He exploded on the spot. "Who leaked something this private? Check with Chandler's school! I'm suing them! Every last person who leaked it!"The lawyer said gravely, "I've already checked. The school's digital database was hacked. Mr. Hunt, I told you yesterday to maintain a good line of communication with the victim's side. If you did, there might have been a chance for settlement. Why did you hire online trolls to spread lies?"The lawyer added, "N

"Mason, I'm not doing this for the Fridman family. I'm now a part of the Hunt family as your aunt. Even if you don't want Violet, that's fine. Summer really isn't right for you!" Jane still wore that sincere, gentle expression."Have you ever thought about why a girl with such ambition would want to be with you?" Jane asked.Mason looked at Jane. "That's where you're wrong. Summer wasn't the one who came looking for me. I'm the one who chased after her."Jane was speechless.Who in their right mind would believe that?At that moment, the elevator arrived. Mason didn't say another word to her as he got in the elevator and left.Jane stood in place.She never imagined that everything she had so carefully planned would be thrown off by the Hartford Group heiress who appeared out of nowhere."All that effort, Jane, and you were paving the way for someone else." A flamboyantly dressed woman walked over at that moment.She, too, was one of the many daughters-in-law of the Hunt family

"Tell Grandma I was here," Mason said before he turned to leave.These past few days had been unbearable for Aspen, especially with everything Summer exposed that day.All these years, people had assumed that there had been something between him and Kristen. It had always been something he could brag about, but the truth was exposed to the public today. That last shred of connection he had with Kristen had shattered as well.On top of that, Chandler was about to face serious criminal charges. Aspen felt like his heart was being set on fire."Mason!" he shouted after Mason, but Mason ignored him.Aspen clenched his teeth and rushed toward Mason with a sharp fruit knife in hand.Things had come to a point of no return anyway. If he had nothing left to lose, he might as well drag Mason down with him. If he killed Mason, maybe Royal Financial Group would fall back into Victoria's hands.But Aspen had underestimated Mason too much. His blade didn't even graze Mason. Mason merely gra

In the end, Mason still went to the private hospital that the Hunt family owned. As he stepped out of the elevator, all he saw were members of the Hunt family, gathered in full force.Mason knew exactly what was going on.These people hadn't shown up out of affection. They were just afraid that Victoria might actually die, so they were here early to wait for the inheritance."Mason, what the hell did you do to Grandma?"The moment they saw Mason, they pounced like a pack of wild dogs, but not a single one of them actually dared to touch him.If Victoria did die, Mason's threat level would skyrocket a hundredfold."This is a hospital. Why are you all being so loud?" Mason asked coldly.Jane ran over. "Everyone, calm down. This had nothing to do with Mason. She only got a heart attack because of Ms. Hartford's press conference."After that, Jane looked at Mason. "Mason, everyone's just worried, so they're a bit emotional. Don't take it to heart.""Where is Violet?" Mason asked.
