Carol and Sheila exchanged a look. They both saw the terror deep within their gazes."I'm not making things up—you two will know what the truth is once you head home and ask your daughters. I would also advise you to find out whether Annie and Becca were recorded when bullying Summer!" Harold said grimly.Carol and Sheila became even more ashen at his words. If Annie and Becca had also been recorded when bullying Summer… Only God knew whether the footage had been leaked with the video of them bullying Lindsey!"I sent my daughter to this school because I expected you and your teachers to give her a proper education! Look at what you've made her end up doing, you worthless thing!" Carol pointed at Harold and snapped at him out of humiliation and anger. Then, she hurried off.…Lindsey used sign language to explain what had happened to Mary. The latter's eyes were red from crying, and she held Summer's hand while bowing profusely in gratitude."Thank you, Summer," Lindsey said, s

"Summer!" Carol called.Summer turned to look at her. She jogged over with a broad smile, the swelling of her left cheek still evident underneath her thick makeup.Summer suddenly felt like her palm was stinging from the sight. Perhaps she'd used a bit too much force…She asked calmly, "Yes?""I have a few things to tell you. Here. Come with me." Carol glanced at Robin, who was watching her vigilantly. She'd heard about him from her husband and knew he was a terrifying man who had blood on his hands.Summer followed her obediently. Carol smiled at her while grabbing Annie and dragging her to Summer. "Get over here!"Annie looked incredibly reluctant."Summer, I've just found out about the conflict that happened between you and Annie in the past. Though it's normal for there to be some horsing around between classmates, she's definitely taken things too far. It's all Becca's fault. If not for her fanning the flames, Annie wouldn't have treated you like that!" Carol said."Hors

"You… You're Mason Hunt?" Annie returned to her senses and stared dazedly at Mason, forgetting that she'd just been slapped."Shut up!" Carol wanted nothing more than to sew her mouth shut.Summer wanted to act like she was invisible, but that didn't seem like it would work out—Mason was looking right at her. It pissed her off, so she looked up and growled, "What are you looking at?"Everyone was stunned. The Hartford family was powerful but still couldn't afford to offend Mason!Just as everyone thought he would get mad, he tilted his head, looking like he was in a good mood. He said, "I feel like I've met you somewhere before."Summer was lost for words. He was such a drama queen—he was putting on a show!He asked, "Have you been bullied?"She muttered, "By her? She's not worthy of that."Mason's eyes gleamed with amusement at that. Summer fell silent.Harold immediately stepped forward to say, "Mr. Hunt, this is the heiress of Hartford Group, Ms. Summer Hartford.""Hartfor

Summer played with her fingers on the way home. "Why did Mason Hunt come to my school, Mr. Cohen? Did he buy it?"That was the impression she had of Mason. He could acquire a company that day, buy a factory tomorrow, and merge with another company the day after that. That was pretty much what she thought of him."I didn't hear anything related to it, but I already have someone on the case," Robin answered."Don't tell Grandpa about Mason coming to school. I don't want him to get mad again," she said.Robin hesitated. "Do you know Mason Hunt, Ms. Hartford?"She hurriedly shook her head. "Of course not. Where would I have met him?""That's good." He looked relieved. "His situation is complex—his whole family wants him dead. I heard he used to have a fiancée who was his childhood sweetheart. She died a horrible death."If he could say the death was horrible, it had probably been horrific beyond imagination.Summer frowned slightly. She'd never heard of Mason having a fiancée. She

Ivan had come out on the losing end against Summer, which had humiliated him. He'd long since held a grudge against her because of it.Initially, he'd thought that she would do horribly in the finals because she usually performed poorly. That would give him the perfect excuse to criticize and punish her.He wanted to prove that it didn't matter how powerful Hartford Group was. What could the Hartfords do if Summer ended up being punished because of her bad grades?He didn't expect her to be stupider than he'd thought. She'd cheated so blatantly that it was impossible to miss. She'd served herself to him on a silver platter!…The weather was getting hotter. During the first class after lunch, the students all looked like they were ready to doze off. At that moment, Ivan entered the classroom with the test papers in his arms."What's he doing here? Aren't we supposed to be having Anglorian now?" one of the students murmured.Ivan stood at the front of the class and slammed the pa

There it was—everyone in the class knew what Summer's grades were like. Ivan didn't need to say anything else to make them realize how unbelievable her final results were."I have nothing to say. Those are the marks I should've gotten," Summer said.Everyone was stunned."The marks you should've gotten? Through cheating, you mean?" Ivan was furious when he saw how obnoxious she still was. He dropped his sarcasm and pointed at her while berating her."You've gone too far, Summer. Even if you wanted to cheat, you should've done it in moderation. Do you think everyone's a fool like you? How is it possible for you to score almost full marks for everything?" Becca snorted."Do you have anything to prove I cheated, Mr. Sutton?" Summer was as calm as ever. It was as if even the sky crashing down wouldn't affect her."Is proof even necessary when you've cheated to this extent?" Ivan roared. "I know you have bad grades, but will cheating resolve that? Is it going to get you anywhere?""W

"Mr. Sutton!" Just then, Harold's voice came from outside the classroom.Ivan immediately turned to see a group of people standing outside. He didn't know when they had arrived, but Harold was looking at him with a hideous expression.Ivan hurried to him. "I was just dealing with the student who cheated during the finals, Mr. Green.""I just heard her say she didn't cheat, though." Harold wasn't the one who spoke. Ivan looked in the direction from which the voice had come. He was so scared that his knees knocked together when he saw who it was."M-Mr. Hunt…" he stammered."Mr. Hunt? Which Mr. Hunt is he talking about?""Oh, my God! It's Mason Hunt!"The students were abuzz. Meanwhile, Summer was lost for words. Was Mason intending to become a student at the school? It was already his second time there, and he seemed to show up whenever someone tried to cause her trouble."You don't understand the situation, Mr. Hunt. Ms. Hartford has always been the worst student in the y

"I don't need it." Summer shook her head.Lindsey looked more anxious than she did. The earlier punishment Ivan had mentioned was already bad enough. It would only become more severe if Summer did badly the second time.Just then, Becca approached them. "Do you know Mason Hunt well, Summer?"Summer glanced at her. "No.""As if! He helped you out last time, and he's doing it again this time…""Curious, aren't you?" Summer shut her comic book and looked at Becca."I just wanted to find out a little more…" Becca faked a smile.Sometimes, Summer admired people like her. They'd been in a fight just a couple of days ago, yet there she was, trying to gossip with her.She pointed upstairs. "You can go ahead and ask him about it."Becca's smile froze. "Fine, then. Be that way! It's not like I really wanted to know!"She stormed off.Lindsey asked in a small voice, "Was that man from earlier someone really powerful?"Summer bit off a mouthful of bread. After some thought, she said, "

"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.
