Semua Bab The Many Faces of a Vengeful Heiress: Bab 121 - Bab 130

Rumors of Rose returning to school circulated for two days.On the third morning, Rose actually showed up.It seemed like the school had informed everyone beforehand. So, there was just some curiosity instead of a huge commotion.Rose sat in the corner with her head down, not talking to anyone. She looked like a lonely and pitiful figure.Their classmates would occasionally glance at Summer to gauge her reaction.In the end, Summer had no reaction at all. With her headphones on, she was fully focused on her studying, going through problems at an incredible speed.Lately, Lindsey had been studying with Summer, and she seemed a lot happier. The two of them would compete daily to see who could finish their test papers faster.Summer was incredibly fast.Lindsey never won a single time, but her own problem-solving speed had improved significantly.Saul sent over his marketing proposal during dinnertime.Summer lay on the dormitory couch as she ate her dinner and reviewed it. She

Summer had barely taken a few steps when someone stepped out of the shadows and blocked her path.She took a step back, and when she saw who it was, a look of impatience appeared on her face. "What? Are you still not satisfied after spending a whole day playing the victim? Are you here to put on a live performance for me?"Rose crossed her arms. She had mentally prepared herself to face Summer again. She had reminded herself over and over that she couldn't lose control and to remain composed.Yet…Standing in front of Summer made her realize how difficult that was."Playing the victim? Are you telling me you didn't do that?" Rose asked with a cold sneer."What exactly do you mean?" Summer looked at her. She didn't know what Rose was thinking, but there was no way Rose would get anything out of her.After a moment of silence, Rose continued, "Summer, I have nothing left now. I didn't come here to fight with you. Since you already had your revenge on me, let's just consider the de

Rose had accomplished her goal.She stood there pitifully as she tried to explain to the onlookers. "You've all misunderstood. That's not what I meant.""Rose, aren't you afraid that Mason will get angry that you labeled him as someone that has been cheated on?" Summer asked indifferently.Rose froze in place.The surrounding discussions instantly stopped as well."I barely even know him, and I've only exchanged a few words with the transfer student. Next time, try going for something easier if you're going to make things up," Summer said. She tilted her chin toward the crowd. "There are so many people here. If word gets out, what do you think Mason will do considering his personality?"Rose had never even considered that. She only brought up Mason to provoke Summer.Summer walked in front of Rose and casually straightened the latter's crooked collar. After that, she whispered so that only the two of them could hear, "Right. I forgot to ask you at home last time. How are thing

After spending time around Summer, Chandler was sure she was just another version of Mason—a cold-blooded, ruthless person that was only driven by profit. She would never truly love someone.She was only with Mason for the sake of his power. The moment Mason fell, she would throw herself into the arms of another man without any hesitation."Let me tell you. Mason won't last much longer." Chandler sneered.He continued, "By the end of this month, he'll be done for. Royal Financial Group will end up in my father's hands. When the time comes, my father will clear out everyone who was secretly aligned with Mason. Hartford Group won't be able to get out of it unscathed."Summer's eyes turned even more frosty. "Royal Financial Group can't even touch Hartford Group with Mason in power. Do you think your father can do it?""Summer, are you really that naive? Back then, Mason was just one step away from acquiring Hartford Group. Even your grandfather, with all his capabilities, could do no

"Ms. Hartford, don't worry. I guarantee that you and Hartford Group will never be implicated in this." Mason's voice grew even more serious on the other end.Summer realized she might have overreacted to it. It was probably because she knew she was very important to Mason.She guessed that those who were favored really did act fearlessly.Wasn't that exactly what she was doing?"It better stay that way." She gritted her teeth, trying to maintain a firm stance.No matter what, she couldn't allow anything bad to happen to her family."I'll deal with Chandler right now," Mason answered.Summer fell silent for a moment. "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now.""Okay."The call ended.Mason lowered his phone with a terrifyingly cold expression.When Kyle saw it, he couldn't help but shiver. It was like a kind of eerie calm that signaled the coming of a storm."Mr. Hartford, did something happen to Hartford Group?" Kyle asked carefully.Mason looked at Kyle. "Chandler's back
