Semua Bab The Many Faces of a Vengeful Heiress: Bab 131 - Bab 140

"Damn it!" Summer quickly retraced her steps in her mind. Her phone must have fallen out of her bag when she ran out of the car.At that moment, the driver regained his senses and started to chase after her while shouting.She had no choice but to hope she'd run into a pedestrian or a passing car that would stop and help her.Ever since she was reborn, she had been incredibly careful about everything. She never expected she would still fall for a trap today.But who was behind this?The driver realized he couldn't catch up on foot after running for a while. He ran back and drove after Summer instead.Seeing this, Summer ran right into a narrow alley where the car couldn't follow. She was quite unlucky. Even after running for over ten minutes, she hadn't bumped into a single person along the way.Thankfully, no one was chasing her anymore.As she panted, she spotted what looked like flashing police car lights not too far away. She almost cried in relief as she immediately tried

"Wait for me in the car," Mason said in a low voice."What are you going to do?" Summer grabbed his hand.She could feel Mason's anger and was afraid he might lose control and kill Chandler."I'm going to cut off his hands!" he gritted out."Mason, I don't want your family conflict to escalate because of me. Otherwise, the ones who will suffer in the end will be me and Hartford Group," Summer said seriously.Mason's gaze instantly darkened."My hands hurt." She softened her tone.He frowned. A moment later, he reached over and buckled her seatbelt.As he passed her, Summer could feel Mason trembling, surprising her greatly. After all, Mason wasn't the type to lose his composure over something like this.Closing the door, Mason turned and walked toward the driver's side.At that moment, Chandler's men came rushing out, carrying Chandler who was already conscious."Mason!" Chandler screamed hoarsely.Mason stopped in his tracks as he looked at Chandler coldly."You'd go this

So, could Summer really blame Mason? Could she blame him for saving her that night? Wouldn't that just be ungrateful?"I'll be more careful myself." Summer let out a sigh.She had been too careless tonight. If she had known, she'd just have asked Saul to drop her off near her school."You haven't answered me. Why were you out so late?" Mason pressed."Don't pry into my business. Did I ask you about why you were trapped at home?" Summer shot back without thinking.Probably because of what happened in her past life, she naturally felt safer when she was around Mason. She tended to let her guard down around him.Mason didn't even lift his head. After finishing with her wrist, he carefully applied medicine before wrapping it gently in soft gauze.He said, "Royal Financial Group started off as a luxury brand. After I took over, I expanded into other industries. Now, my uncles want to separate the original business from the rest, leaving me with only the newer ventures.""My grandpa

Mason lowered his gaze. "There was no particular reason. Haven't you heard that my hobby is acquiring companies?"Summer was speechless."Is Mr. Hartford Senior still mad at me?" Mason asked.Summer noded without hesitation. "Yep! We aren't even allowed to mention your name at home. He won't say it, either. He just called you 'that little wolf cub.'"Mason chuckled. "'Wolf cub'? That sounds quite adorable."Summer did not get Mason's sense of humor.But now that he said it, why did it suddenly sound kind of cute?Mason continued, "I did mess up that time. Once the situation with Royal Financial Group settles down, I'll personally apologize to him."Mason looked incredibly serious as he said that.He was so serious that Summer even started feeling a little guilty. For a second there, she was worried he would confess to her.But he didn't."I'm going to bed. You should head back. I'm not scared." Summer got up."Alright. Go ahead." Mason nodded.Without another word, Summer

Lindsey looked at Summer with admiration. "Summer, sometimes, I really wonder if you're a machine. By the way, you weren't here last night. The principal said he found a teaching assistant to cover for him when he's not around. I heard this assistant is amazing."Harold had been swamped with problems lately. The whole Chandler situation was enough to keep him in hot water with Mason, making it impossible for him to teach their class as usual. Solving that difficult problem had taken some time.By now, most of the students had arrived."He's here! He's here!"There was a commotion among the students in the front row.Summer instinctively looked up. She saw Harold walk in with a tall and slender man behind him.When she saw that nerdy man, her expression darkened.She wasn't the only one with a dramatic change in expression, for Rose's expression changed, too.Harold announced, "Class, let me introduce someone to you. This is your senior, Anthony Lawson. I probably don't need to
