Semua Bab The Many Faces of a Vengeful Heiress: Bab 161 - Bab 170

"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

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

"You little rascal!" The displeasure on Henry's face disappeared at that moment.The frustration Summer had felt when she had woken up that morning was completely gone. She picked up her spoon and happily ate the cake.The cake that day was a savory salted chestnut cake. It was unique and absolutely delicious."Have you thought about school?" Kristen poured her a glass of milk.Moments like this between Summer and Kristen felt so natural now. It wasn't like in the past, where they barely even spoke when they met."I've thought about it. I'll go to Bellton College. It's a top school, and it's close to home!" Summer nodded.Kristen and Henry exchanged a glance. Bellton wasn't easy to get into."Summer, if you really get into Bellton, I'll give you anything you want," Henry said earnestly."Your dad and I will grant you one wish, too," Kristen added."That's a promise!" Summer said.…In the blink of an eye, the two-day break was over. A day before the exams, Lindsey invited Su

The voices in the room grew louder."You can definitely search me, but before that, I just need to ask. Why did you come straight for me?" Summer asked calmly. She was perfectly composed and did not show a hint of impatience."Didn't I say that earlier? Someone reported you! They claimed there was something off with your stationery and even your hairpin. Hand them over for inspection," Samuel said."Summer, Mr. Hartford Senior dotes on you so much. Even if you didn't do well, he wouldn't say anything, and you'd still inherit Hartford Group. "Why would you do something like that? It's still not too late to admit it to the teachers. At least you can salvage some of the family's reputation!" Rose fanned the flames.At that moment, the students from other schools started to gossip among themselves."So that's the Hartford heiress? Wasn't she supposed to be ugly? She must have had plastic surgery to look so different now.""Plastic surgery is nothing. I was thinking of getting some

Janice started to panic. "I didn't cheat. Are you going to search me without any evidence? Just because Summer suspected me?"Summer feigned confusion and asked, "Janice, didn't you urge me to cooperate with the teachers just now? So, I can be suspected, but you can't? As long as you didn't cheat, then nothing would happen anyway. Are you scared?"Janice clenched her teeth as she eyed her stationery.Her stationery was all different from what Summer had. The brand was different, and even the designs were different. It was definitely not the ones she had prepared to sabotage Summer.The hairpins were even less of a worry. They were personal items that no one could ever have swapped.On top of that, she had always appeared nice toward Summer. There was no way Summer would have framed her.Just as she was mentally preparing herself, Samuel got impatient. He went over and snatched her pencil case."What are you doing?" Janice instantly shouted."Don't you have a flight to catch? Le
