Norah said, "Tomorrow, I'd like you to visit the Gray family with me to clear up what happened last time. Licia, what do you think?""Alright," Elisa replied. Since it was about that issue, she had no reason to decline.Soon after, Eugene arrived at the school entrance, and Elisa headed back to the Watson residence.During dinner, Lucas handed her a card and smiled. "Licia, here's your allowance for this month. There's five hundred thousand dollars in it. Feel free to spend it however you like. If you need more, just let me know."Elisa accepted the card but had no intention of using any of the money inside.One day, she would leave this family that never truly felt like her own. Everything she had taken from them would be returned.Lucas, unaware of her thoughts, smiled and said, "Let's eat."Across the table, Isabelle looked surprised and exclaimed, "Wow! My card looks different than Elisa's. Mine is black-why's that?"Elisa's card was a regular one with a fixed allowance, In contra

Elisa could barely keep up with the flat terrain ahead.But as she was about to climb over the tall fence of the Watson residence, she started cursing herself for not having the wings to fly out.The fence was too high, and there were sharp spikes at the top in addition to layers of iron wires coiled around it full of razor-sharp barbs. She'd be painfully pierced with just one wrong move.Elisa gave up trying, knowing that there was no way she could get over it without a ladder.Damien gleaned at her and instructed in a cryptic tone "I'd suggest you close your eyes.""What?" Before she could react, she felt her body lift into the air.A strong force held her so she wouldn't fall. The arm around her waist was strong and gave her a sense of security.Elisa took the chance to look down, and her pupils instantly dilated. The spikes and sharp wires were dangerously close and could stab her at any moment."Ah!" She couldn't hold back from screaming sharply.This was dangerous!Damien's lang

Elisa almost gagged at hearing the word "fiancé".She didn't bother to hide the evident disdain on her face as she replied, "I'm not picking up trash from a garbage dump."Damien seemed to chuckle. His voice carried the usual indifference but with a hint of mischief. "At least you have a good taste."From Damien tone, it seemed he was looking down on Arnold as well.Elisa was slightly surprised, but the Rolls-Royce had started moving before she could ask.Through the lowered window, Damien leaned lazily against the leather seat. He radiated an impenetrable air of coldness despite his relaxed posture. Every gesture of his exuded an innate commanding presence. Rays of sunlight cast on his face, highlighting his pale complexion and chiseled features.Eliza was momentarily dazed. It was only then that she remembered that Damien, the head of the Russell family, was just 28 years old yet already wielded immense power.Arnold was nothing compared to him.Elisa started reflecting on herself.

Norah shouted in disappointment, "Elisa, how could you do that? If you needed money, couldn't you have come to us? Why'd you go behind our backs and disgrace yourself? You've brought shame on the Watson." Here it was again, the same story. Lucas and Norah had always believed Isabelle's words of slander both in this life and the last, regardless of how fishy the accusations might sound.They never bothered to ask or verify the truth before resorting to slapping and scolding her. If that was the case, what else was there to say?Elisa's eyes sharpened, and she caught a fleeting look of smug satisfaction on Isabelle's face. She grabbed Isabelle by the collar with a cold smile and began slapping her mercilessly. As she did, she chided, "Making up stories, huh? Twisting the truth, huh? You're filthy inside and out, so you assume everyone must be just as filthy as you are!"Each slap was harder than the one Norah had given Elisa earlier. The slaps sounded crisp and clear in the car, mixed w

Selena, who had just been doused with water, stood there. Her bangs were soaked, and water dripped from her face.She was trembling with anger, "How dare you."It was funny how people could be so hypocritical. They thought it was okay to splash others, but it was unacceptable when they got splashed in return.Selena furiously tried to rally the rest of the class against Elisa. She spoke with righteous indignation,. Do you guys want to be classmates with someone like Elisa? I'm sure you don't! People like her should get kicked out!" Quite a few people joined in and agreed with her. The once-quiet class began to buzz with a frenzy filled with whispers and accusations.Hey, did you hear? Elisa stole Isabelle's fiancé!""Yeah, I heard. Apparently, the Grays have sent out invites. The engagement party is scheduled for the week after next, and the wedding will be the month after.""No wonder Isabelle hasn't been at school these past few days. She must be devastated.""Elisa has no shame. Is
