Ch. 81..90
Chapter 81
Mia quickly hid the bracelet behind her and said in anger, “How dare you break into my room? Get out of here now!” Tiffany raised an eyebrow, her expression tinged with amusement and a hint of derision.
“Oh, don’t worry. I’m not here to reason with you. I’m just here to take back what’s mine.” As Tiffany spoke, she leisurely pulled out the stool from the vanity and sat down, crossing her long legs elegantly.
The way she carried herself was poised and dignified, more like a commanding master than an intruder.
Mia’s anxiety spiked.
She knew from last time that Tiffany was tough to deal with when she tried to mess with her and ended up stuffed into a basketball hoop, while her Taekwondo friends were all knocked out,
That was why she hadn’t taken on Tiffany head–on. Instead, she had someone sneak into Tiffany’s room and steal the bracelet, figuring that without evidence, Tiffany couldn’t do anything to her.
But to her surprise, Tiffany had come straight to confront her.
Mia held back her anger and scoffed. “How could your thing possibly be here? You’ve got the wrong person.”
“Like I said, I’m not here to reasoh with you” Tiffany kept smiling as she slowly advanced toward Mia, “So, are you going to give it back to me yourself, or should I make you return it while begging me for mercy?”
Her words were softly spoken, but the pressure they carried was intense.
“What exactly should I give back? I don’t know what you’re talking about. Maybe you could give me a hint?” Mia asked.
She knew Tiffany wasn’t bluffing and she was just stalling for time. Meanwhile, her hand under the blanket was secretly dialing for help. The apartment had scattered security guards around, and a call would bring them in three minutes. Tiffany’s smile showed she wasn’t worried about Mia’s little tricks Looks like you’re still not taking me seriously.” With that, Tiffany suddenly grabbed Mia through the blanket, yanking her off the bed and onto the floor. “Ah Mia screamed as her head was pressed to the ground by Tiffany
Mia was shocked and furious. She gritted her teeth and said, “You bitch! How dare this!”
you do this to me! I’ll make you pay for
Tiffany responded with a slap on Mia’s forehead, sneering. Really? You stole my thing and still have the cheek to play the
victim?”
If that bracelet weren’t so valuable and given to her as a gift, Tiffany would have discarded it after Mia’s dirty hands touched
IL
“Let go of me! Let go!” Mia shouted as she struggled desperately, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t break free from Tiffany’s strong grip.
“Where’s my stuff? Tiffany remained patient and calm. She said unhurriedly, “Why not just cooperate and save yourself the humiliation?
Mia couldn’t find a word to argue. Red–eyed and infuriated, she said, “I’ll give it to you! Now let go of mer
Tiffany released her bold.
Only then did Mia manage to stand up from the floor. Half of her face became red from being pressed against the cold, hard tiles. The pain was sharp, leaving her face still from the contrast between the icy floor and the burning ache. It felt like being caught between fire and ice.
Even though Mia was still furious, she didn’t dare provoke Tiffany any further. So, she reluctantly pulled the bracelet from under the blanket and tossed it to Tiffany.
Tiffany caught it easily and checked it over. Thankfully, there were no scratches or damages.
Now that she had her bracelet back, she smoothly climbed out the window and left Mia’s apartment, disappearing into the night just as swiftly as she had come.
Mia stomped her feet in anger.
Eventually, she cried and called her father, complaining about being bullied at school. Not only did she demand a bodyguard with her at all times, but she also insisted that her father terminate his collaboration with the Kelley Group and sabotage them whenever possible.
Unfortunately, even though the Lee family was influential in Lovell City, their real estate business didn’t intersect with the industries under the Kelley family’s control
Moreover, Conner was currently preoccupied with a pressing matter and had no time to deal with the minor conflicts between young people. He brushed Mia off and hung up.
Mia was angry, but there was nothing she could do.
Regardless, she swore that this grudge was now firmly established. She would stop at nothing to repay the humiliation double–fold
Meanwhile, after hanging up the phone, Conner asked the butler. “Has the Miracle Healer given any response yet?” “No, sir,” the butler replied. “Shall I extend another invitation?”
Conner said, “Yes, go talk to june again. No matter what terms they demand, you must get him here before my next episode!”
“Yes. the butler responded.
When Tiffany returned to her apartment, Zoe was using her phone. When she looked up, she saw Tiffany coming in.
“Back so soon?” Zoe immediately put down her phone and asked “Tiffany, did you get it back?”
Tiffany didn’t say anything but raised her hand. The dazzling bracelet on her wrist was eye–catching.
“So, it was her who stole it!” Zoe cursed a bit but then dropped the subject and handed her phone to Tiffany. Tiffany, did you see this news? It’s about the summer camp.
“Summer camp? Tiffany was puzzled and took Zoe’s phone to check.
The announcement was posted just 15 minutes ago by the school on the official forum, stating that all higher education institutions in Lovell City were organizing a joint summer camp. This opportunity was rare and not open to everyone, with participation based on academic performance.
Tiffany had outdone herself this time, jumping to the top of her class, so she was on the shortlist of participants.
Scanning through the names, she saw a few familiar ones, like Kenneth, Sandra, Ged, and so on.
Chapter 82
Zoe shook her head vigorously. “I want to relax myself. I heard this camp is all about physical fitness and is even more exhausting than military training. I really don’t want to waste my vacation like this.”
“All right, then,” said Tiffany. Noting that Zoe genuinely didn’t want to participate, she didn’t insist.
The next day, during the routine pre–holiday meeting, the school made the announcement. They posted the list of participants and emphasized the schedule. One week later, all participants must gather at the school.
This announcement made many excited as they found the camp interesting and thrilling.
However, more were complaining bitterly. “I don’t want my nice holiday to get ruined like that.
Another student said, “Others get two months off, and I only have a seven–day break. I was planning to relax, but now I’m forced to undergo this training. Great. I have to kiss my holiday goodbye.”
Suddenly, the principal’s message came through the loudspeaker amidst the voices of protest. “Get ready for the camp. I’m looking forward to your performance. I know many of you are reluctant, but this is a rare opportunity: Cherish it, kids.”
Objectively speaking, this truly was a rare and valuable opportunity.
All the participants came from prominent families. After graduation, they would invariably join their family businesses. Therefore, the management skills, knowledge, and physical training they were receiving now were all part of a thorough grooming process.
Although these rich kids had bodyguards, the ability to foresee danger and handle situations with a cool head was ant indispensable skill for them.
Tiffany had always known what was coming for her. However, in her previous life, there was no joint training. It simply didn’t exist. So, it was clear that many things were developing along a different trajectory.
After the meeting, the vacation officially began. With the limited seven–day holiday, the first thing Tiffany did was to return home
When Eric saw his sister back, he rushed over joyfully and shouted with excitement, “Ah, Tiffany, you’re finally back!”
The boy’s break had started earlier than Tiffany’s, and although he enjoyed being at home with his parents, he just wanted to have fun with his sister, who was his idol.
Tiffany picked up her little brother and gave his head a rough rub before patting him to soothe him, saying. “My good boy.” Meanwhile, Charlie and Thalia were equally happy to see their beloved daughter return.
“You’re finally back. Oh my, you’ve lost so much weight these days. Hurry, serve the dinner get the soup for my girl Charlie said.
He knew that Tiffany was coming home today, so he had taken the day off from work specifically to spend time with his daughter because she would be leaving for training again in less than a week.
Charlie and Thalia had long known about the training, and when the school discussed this with them, Charlie was the first to agree.
As a father, his thinking was simple. It was good for girls to learn more.
However, when Eric learned about this, he immediately held onto his sister’s hand and protested. “I want to go tool”
Charlie said, “Go, go, go! You little brat, if you go there, you’ll only distract your sister.”
Charlie glanced at him and added, “Are you complaining that you don’t have enough homework for the holidays! Do you want more extracurricular classes??”
Upon hearing this, Eric immediately kept quiet.
Despite being only the youngest, he was at the bottom of the family’s hierarchy. The ranking from top to bottom was first the mother and daughter, then the father and son.
Tiffany chuckled and put a piece of rib on her brother’s plate, coaxing, “I’ll take you out to play these few days to make up for it, okay?”
“Okay.” Eric’s eyes lit up when he heard that.
Charlie couldn’t help but glare at him, “All you do is cling to your sister. Didn’t all the beating when you were younger teach you anything?”
Due to the big age gap between the siblings, the sister would often bully the brother when they were young.
No matter how many times Eric was taught a lesson, every time he went to kindergarten or met other friends, he would proudly tell everyone he had a beautiful sister.
Beatings aside, the bond between the brother and sister was genuinely strong.
The family chatted and laughed while reminiscing about the past. The atmosphere was especially harmonious and warm. until Sandra walked in and called out to them humbly. “Uncle Charlie, Aunt Thalia, I’m back.”
In an instant, a hint of awkwardness filled the air, and Thalia frowned slightly.
Ever since the last time Sandra went crazy and tried to scratch Tiffany’s face right in front of them, Charlie and Thalia had felt a significant rift with this niece.
Even though they had previously treated Sandra like a daughter, taking care of her in every possible way, there was always limit to everything.
No matter how much they liked her before, no parent would repay harm with kindness when someone tried to hurt their daughter, especially not parents like Charlie and Thalia, who were fiercely protective of their children.
Sandra also seemed to have sensed the subtle atmosphere that she was not welcome.
Her gaze darkened, a mist of tears began to form, and her smile faded into a sorrowful, tearful look.
Sandra said, ‘Im sorry. It’s my fault for making everyone unhappy. I’ll leave now.”
After saying that, she turned around and wanted to leave, but Charlie stopped her. “Where are you going? Since you’re back, wash your hands and sit down to eat.”
It wasn’t that he had completely forgiven her, but Sandra was his niece. Even if he was unhappy with her he couldn’t just kick her out recklessly. Doing so would only give people something to gossip about and tarnish the reputation of the Kelley family and Tiffany,
Sandra, of course, wasn’t planning to leave. It was just a tactic to show vulnerability to gain an advantage. So, she took advantage of the opportunity, wiped her tears, washed her hands, and sat at the table.
Tiffany acted as if Sandra didn’t even exist, continuing to talk with her brother, eating and chatting as if nothing had happened.
The atmosphere at the table became somewhat strained.
Sandra was eager to please them, so she busied herself serving Charlie and Thalia food, insisting on doing it herself even when the servants offered to help.
As Charlie watched her behave so cautiously and obediently, he couldn’t help but think of how his niece was now all by herself, with her parents still wanted for their wrongdoing. Being soft–hearted, he eventually relented.
Charlie was just about to say something when Tiffany spoke up first. “Mom, a master of oil painting visited our school last week. He happened to like one of my paintings and said he wanted to submit it to a competition. If I’m lucky enough to win a prize, maybe people will stop calling me a pretty face with no substance.”
“Really?” Thalia asked, clearly delighted. Her face was full of pride as she went on, “I knew it. My daughter is amazing! That master has excellent taste!”
Thalia was supportive, but as a mother, she knew that her daughter was not the type to show off. Even if Tiffany’s painting did win an international award, she wouldn’t brag about it.
So, Thalia asked, “And then what happened?”
Tiffany said, “Well, there was a small incident. Perhaps by mistake, Sandra took my painting as her own, which nearly caused a misunderstanding.”
Tiffany smiled faintly and continued, “Fortunately, I discovered it in time and resolved the misunderstanding. Otherwise, no amount of explaining would have helped.”
Tiffany spoke as if it was no big deal, but there was no such thing as a coincidence like that, especially not one with such slim odds.
Charlie and Thalia exchanged glances, seeing a thin layer of anger and shock in each other’s eyes.
They were angry that their daughter had nearly been tricked and shocked that Sandra, at her age, had the audacity to try something like that.
When they looked at Sandra again, their eyes were filled with hostility.
Chapter 83
The moment Tiffany spoke up, Sandra knew things were about to go wrong. But she couldn’t stop it because Tiffany had started recounting the incident.
Tiffany didn’t exaggerate, but it was precisely her innocent tone that made her seem all the more calculating.
“No, I didn’t. It was really just a misunderstanding… Sandra immediately explained, “Our paintings looked so similar, even the master said so, which is how this mix–up happened. I’ve already apologized to Tiffany. This really is just a misunderstanding. Tiffany, please don’t let others sow discord between us. They’re just hoping we won’t get along
After saying that, she looked at Tiffany with a worried and helpless expression.
“Is that so?” Tiffany said with a faint smile. “But why do I remember my painting mysteriously disappearing from my room? Oh, I get it now. You must have wanted to help me win Mr. Fremont’s favor, so you sent my painting in advance, right? You should’ve told me earlier. I almost misunderstood your good–intentions because I was kept in the dark.”
Tiffany seemed to have a sudden realization while the expressions on Charlie and Thalia’s faces grew gloomier.
After dinner, when they had sent the kids back to their rooms, Thalia dismissed the servants, then turned to Charlie and snapped, “This is all your fault! You insisted on bringing that family here out of some old sense of duty. Now look! Your so- called brother and sister–in–law are trying to ruin us! And their daughter is no better. What was she plotting? She even seduced Tiffany’s fiancel”
Fortunately, they had decided to break off the engagement with the Harper family. If not, Thalia would have been even more furious.
Seeing his wife upset, Charlie hurriedly appeased her, “Don’t be angry. Calm down. This is all my fault. But if we really kick her out, wouldn’t that be too harsh?”
If they were just an ordinary family, it would be simple. They could do whatever they wanted without anyone caring or criticizing them.
But it was different now. After all, they were prominent figures in the business community. Any scandal could easily be blown out of proportion, affecting both the company’s stock and its interests.
Hence, they couldn’t go too far unless absolutely necessary,
“Hmph, that’s your problem to deal with!” Thalia said.
She was so angry that she had a headache again, so she didn’t want to bother with Charlie anymore. Rubbing her temples, she headed to the bedroom. Before entering the room, she turned back to snap at him again, “You can sleep by yourself tonight!
That was pure torture, absolutely the worst punishment for him
Charlie groaned, and then the door slammed shut, leaving him locked out in the cold.
Just as he was licking his wounds, Eric walked by with a cup of hot milk and cast a disdainful glance at his father, teasing, “I’ve never seen anyone as clueless as you are!”
“You rascall Charlie shouted, pretending to go after the boy.
But Eric quickly slipped into Tiffany’s room. He stuck out his tongue at his dad, then turned to his sister with a sweet smile and said, “Tiffany, have some milk.”
At that moment, Charlie realized something. He was the one who had the lowest status in the family.
No matter how tense the atmosphere at home was, Tiffany kept her promise over the next few days, taking her younger brother out to have fun. They went wild at amusement parks, arcades, horseback riding, and shooting ranges. It didn’t take much to keep a child happy, as long as she stayed by Eric’s side, he was all smiles.
But on the fourth day. Tiffany received a call from Frank, the manager of Treasure Tower.
She had been entirely focused on Royal Bay lately. The situation with Richard’s nephew had become increasingly critical, so Tiffany spent more and more time there, with each visit more thorough than the last. If not for this call, she had almost forgotten she still held a position there.
Hence, she hurriedly apologized. “I’m sorry, Mr. Mask. I’ve been busy with exams and nearly forgot.”
Frank said, “It’s fine, but there’s a big client tomorrow, and they specifically requested a female appraiser. Are you available?” Frank asked about Tiffany’s availability out of courtesy. In fact, she would have to go there even if she wasn’t free.
Tiffany immediately replied, “No problem. I’ll go directly to the client’s place tomorrow. Please send me the address and client details.
Two minutes later. Tiffany was dumbfounded when she received the client’s information.
The person requiring the appraisal service was actually someone from the Hampton family. However, it had nothing to do with Richard. The client was Hark, the legendary head of the Hampton family who was known for his imposing presence and lustrious life.
Tiffany blinked, still a bit bewildered.
In both her lifetimes, she had never once met Hank. She only knew from rumors that he wasn’t easy to get along with. She also heard that he had developed a fondness for antiques and collectibles, and his collection was said to be vast and staggering.
So, this time, he had hired someone from Treasure Tower to appraise his collection.
Although surprised, there was no reason for Tiffany to back out at this point. She didn’t want to give up this opportunity or Treasure Tower either because it brought a steady stream of income.
So, the next day, Tiffany made up an excuse to sneak out. She disguised herself and changed her appearance, hiding her natural beauty and transforming her once stunning face into something completely ordinary.
If her appearance as Miracle Healer carried an air of refined beauty, then in her role as an appraiser, she looked entirely unremarkable, someone who could easily blend into a crowd.
Tiffany was quite satisfied with this transformation.
Meanwhile, the car from Treasure Tower had already arrived at the designated spot to pick her up. Frank knew it was a big deal, and the Hampton family was not to be offended, so he had specially prepared the car for Tiffany,
They drove straight to the Hampton Manor
The old mansion was entirely different from Richard’s residence at Royal Bay. It was a massive estate, comparable to half a royal palace. The building featuring classical elements like columns, ornate moulding, and pediments, stood majestically in place with an excellent landscape.
Ordinary people would be struck with awe at such an imposing and solemn mansion, overwhelmed by the grandeur of its century–old heritage and the pervasive sense of authority that seemed to emanate from every corner.
Tiffany was amazed, but she remained composed, showing none of the anxiety or nervousness one might expect.
After getting out of the car and stating her purpose and identity, she was led by a servant through the estate.
As she walked in, the classical elegance of the place became more apparent. The entire mansion, inside and out, exuded an air of wealth and refinement.
The scenery was also impressive.
The servant led Tiffany to Hank. She lowered her eyes and greeted him politely, “Nice Mr. Hampton. I’m the appraiser from Treasure Tower.”
After saying this, she looked up and met a pair of deep eyes.
Chapter 84
The familiar face was well–defined, coupled with the intimidating noble aura. It must be Richard.
Tiffany was a little surprised.
She had met Richard quite a few times during this period, mostly at Royal Bay. Her identity was a mysterious person w excellent medical skills.
When they met, they merely greeted each other.
When Richard saw her, a hint of playfultuss flashed across his face.
Tiffany quickly retracted her gaze. She looked professional, without the slightest fawning or solicitousness on her face. tried to present emotionless.
Hank’s impression of her improved a little due to that. However, he still said in a casual tone, “The butler has served it. Y
can start now,
Tiffany did not say anything.
She could feel that Hank looked down on her from the bottom of his heart. It was not arrogance, but the confidence of someone from a large family that had prospered for a hundred years.
When the butler brought the things up, Tiffany also neatly put on her gloves.
In front of her was a diamond, which looked a bit mottled. Being so old, it must have been passed through many people. There were impurities inside that were difficult to clean.
Tiffany picked up the diamond ring and examined it.
The diamond ring was transparent and the dragon on it was lifelike. Although the part carved in the middle was blurry, it was definitely not an ordinary item.
Tiffany looked at it for a while before putting it back in its original position. Then, she slowly said, “This diamond ring is of the highest quality. It’s a thousand years old. It’s priceless
She spoke bluntly. Hank stared at her with his deep eyes and suddenly said, “Little girl, do you know why I chose you amon so many experienced appraisers?”
“I don’t know,” said Tiffany.
“Because you can tell stories. Hank suddenly laughed, and his solemn face became a little kinder. Then tell me the story about this diamond ring
Tiffany was silent for a moment.
It seemed that her storytelling standard was quite passable at the appraisal convention last time. Her reputation spread and got people curious about her.
People thought she made up the stories, yet she was just a narrator.
Tiffany sensed the ring and said. “This story is not special. So, a poor scholar found it by chance. The pattern on it symbolizes auspiciousness and excellent luck. This scholar took as a treasure. And, he did rise step by step. In the end, he became a Marquis. His family prospered. And they passed down the right from generation to generation
Tiffany’s voice was very sou, even though slie deliberately pretended to be mature. Her unhurried speed made the story very real.
Every word she said was so vivid that the listener almost had the pictures in their head.
Getting old. Hank became interested in this type of stuff. However, he was smart, and would not be fooled easily. Besides one had the guts to do so.
Yet Tiffany was different. Her stories were vivid and impressive.
By the time the story was finished, Hank was still immersed in it.
Tiffany did not disturb him. She casually turned her gaze and met the half–smiling gaze of the person beside her.
Richard was sitting there. His aura was powerful and hard to ignore even if Tiffany tried.
Richard was not moved at all by her story. He was more interested in watching her than listening to her story.
Tiffany’s heart trembled. ‘Did something give me away?’ she thought.
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard Richard’s smiling voice. “Not bad.”
He didn’t really say anything. But his last syllable was dragged meaningfully.
Tiffany smiled. You flattered me, Mr. Hampton.”
The mission was completed more easily than Tiffany had imagined. She generously accepted the compensation from Han It was a cheque. She did not see How much it was, but it would be a lot.
Til see you later then. Tiffany stood up and prepared to leave.
Just as she turned around, she saw a servant walking over with two cups of coffee.
Tiffany suddenly stopped in her tracks.
The coffee sounded great but…there was obviously something wrong.
Tiffany turned around and saw the coffee that had a problem, which was placed in front of Richard,
However, Richard didn’t seem to notice it. He picked it up and was about to drink it.
Without thinking. Tiffany rushed over and knocked the cup to the ground.
She had noticed that there was poison in it.
Tiffany didn’t have time to think about it before she acted. Now she realized she had caused trouble, in the Hampton family. Hank must felt offended.
As expected, after recovering from his shock, Hank instantly flew into a rage. “How dare you!”
No one had ever dared to do such a rude thing in his territory! was arrogant forTiffany to openly provoke him.
Tiffany was about to speak when she heard a chuckle.
“Did I say something? Richard slowly wiped the water off his sleeves and said faintly, I don’t mind. What do you mind?” Hank was instantly choked Tiffany was even more stunned.
This was the first time she had seen Richard say such insulting words in such an elegant manner, especially that Hank was his father.
Having married three times, Hank had a lot of sous and daughters.
Richard, who was born when Hank was old, had astonishing talent.
Moreover, he defeated all his brothers and sisters who were eyeing the position of the Hampton family’s leader.
In terms of charisma and shrewdness, Richard was unpredictable.
Tiffany did not expect him to speak up for her.
Hank was furious. He also wanted to know why this little girl who did not know the rules had suddenly gone crazy. Hence, he asked in a low voice, “Why did you do this? Give me a reasonable explanation.”
What she did was impolite as a guest, especially that she was paid.
Tiffany opened her mouth and was about to say something when she felt an itch in her palm.
Looking down, Richard retracted his hand without a trace.
Tiffany immediately corrected herself. “I’m sorry. I was in a daze just now… I’m really sorry. The answer was full of loopholes. Hank wouldn’t believe it.
“Then you…” Hank wanted to ask more, but Richard had already stood up impatiently and left the old residence with Tiffany.
They got into the car. There were only the two of them in the backseat.
Tiffany spoke first, “Did you know the coffee was poisoned?”
However, Richard smiled faintly and asked, “How did you know though?”
Chapter 85
Oh shit. I got myself trapped. Tiffany thought.
Tiffany was worried that she would be seen through, yet her acting skills were good. She smiled and said, “When the servant came over, she was flustered. Although she hid it very well, I noticed it. I’d rather it was my mistake than let dangerous things happen, Mr. Hampton, I hope you are not mad. Tiffany looked normal,
She could not expose her ability to recognize poisons, so she could only speak nonsense.
However, she sounded so serious and convincing.
Richard raised his eyebrows. There was still no joy or anger on his stunning face. “Of course not. I’d like to thank you.”
“It’s nothing” Tiffany continued, speaking just for show. I even earned a lot of commission from your extravagant spending at the last Appraisal Conference, Mr. Hampton.”
Tiffany looked at the time and was about to leave when Richard spoke before her. “Where are you going? I’ll send you.”
Before Tiffany responded, the driver, who had been trying to reduce his presence, slowly started the car.
Tiffany could only bite the bullet. “Treasure Tower.”
The car headed towards Treasure Tower. Inside the car, no one spoke.
Looking at the buildings and trees flying away outside the car window, Tiffany thought of what happened in Hampton Manor. There was clearly something wrong with the coffee, but Richard did not let her say it…
Moreover, the coffee was filled with a slow–acting poison. It would not directly kill people, but the long–term damage would be great
Tiffany thought. “He must know something, but he doesn’t want to make it clear. It seems living in a wealthy family is never easy, although many envy it.”
Soon, the car stopped at the entrance of the Treasure Tower.
Tiffany got out of the car and nodded. “Thank you.”
In the Treasure Tower, a few experienced appraisers were complaining that all the good things were taken by a newcomer, who was a young girl
They couldn’t accept it.
Hence, they joined forces to criticize Tiffany in front of the shopkeeper, Frank. They saw a car parked at the entrance of the Treasure Tower.
Seeing the low–key luxury car that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and the unique license plate, everyone was overjoyed. They thought that there was a big deal.
Then they saw the little girl they were criticizing getting out of the car leisurely as well as Richard’s cold face inside of the window.
Everyone gasped! They didn’t expect that the girl was so ostentatious! Richard, the head of the Hampton family sent her back in person. This treatment was absolutely unprecedentedt
Hence, the experienced appraisers were all choked. They were ready to criticize Tiffany for breaking the rules when she returned. Now, it was imposible,
On the other hand, Frank, after a moment of shock, immediately put on a smile. He had known Tiffany was no average person, yet she
he was even better than he had thought.
Richard was never interested in the Appraisal Conference, but he came last time and spent so much money. Hank had reckoned that Richard must have done it for Tiffany.
Therefore, with a knowing smile on his face, Frank personally walked to the door to welcome Tiffany in.
“Did it go well?” he asked.
“It’s okay.” Tiffany handed the check to Frank readily.
It was her reward, but the Treasure Tower would take more than half of it.
“Frank. I gotta go now. Call me if anything happens Tiffany was the only appraiser who didn’t stay at the Treasure Tower all day. The corresponding reward for her was naturally less than the others.
However, she was strong and lucky. She made a lot of money every time.
The others in the Treasure Tower were jealous, and envious of her but could do nothing.
Frank quickly transferred this compensation to her. Tiffany was worried that the company would not have enough cash flow, so she was prepared to transfer some to Caleb first.
Yet unexpectedly, she received a text message.
It showed that 400,000 dollars had been transferred to her account.
Tiffany was stunned. “Is the company profitable now? That’s quick
Tiffany had never asked about the company’s situation. She had let Caleb take care of everything.
Tiffany thought it’d take a long time for the company to start making money. She was prepared to support it in the early stages. She did not expect it to rise so soon.
Then, she received a call from Caleb.
Tiffany asked, “What’s going on?”
“Our company has already started to make a profit!” Caleb sounded very excited and full of motivation. “Although the net profit last month was only 400,000 dollars, believe me, I will make the company better and better! It’ll become one of the top companies in Lovell City, I swear. Trust me.” It was his dream and ambition.
Tiffany smiled slightly and replied in that sincere and certain tone, “I know you can. I’ve never doubted that.”
Nothing could be more motivating. Caleb nodded heavily. “Thank you, Boss.”
He would never forget the dark times when he was alone and helpless, only Tiffany reached out to him. Just based on this, he should work hard to repay her.
At this moment, Tiffany did not know that Caleb was feeling so emotional. She was only telling the truth.
-In her previous life, Caleb sold himself to Kenneth. At that time he had managed the company well and became Kenneth’s
best helper.
However, in this life, even Tiffany did not expect that her words today would make Caleb loyal to her and that the company would become dominant in the future. Its market value would repeatedly break the peak record and as the boss, Tiffany’s wealth would be shockin
No network available now. Please check your network.
Tiffany was very happy to see the company start so well. She encouraged Caleb more before hanging up.
It was still early. Tiffany had yet to finish what she had to do today.
She needed to go to Royal Bay.
As usual. June drove over to pick her up. Seeing that no one was around, Tiffany quickly got into
The car windows were all plated, so no one would see her. Tiffany quickly changed her clothes and changed her appearance. Hence, the appraiser who was old–fashioned just now turned into the delicate and pretty owner of Miracle Healer.
June was curious and asked, “Ms. Kelley, didn’t you have a mission today? Why are you still at Treasure Tower?”
“I was sent back.” Tiffany felt a little helpless.
Tiffany had to appreciate Richard’s kindness, although that meant she needed to make a detour.
June nodded in understanding and said, “But why do you have to go to such a place to make yourself suffer? If you want to make money, just the name of Miracle Healer is enough.”
Chapter 86
Ever since the news of the Miracle Healer spread, there were many people who wanted to visit Tiffany for various reasons every day.
Accepting an invitation from a high-class family would bring her huge profit. It would be so much better than working at
Treasure Tower.
Tiffany shook her head and said, “At first, I went to the Treasure Tower with the intention of making money, but it’s different now.”
“How?” June asked.
“You’ll see.” Tiffany did not make it too clear because this was a secret.
Treasure Tower was spread all over the world, and its background was indescribably powerful. As an appraiser, she firstly wanted to investigate, and secondly, she wanted to make a deal with the other party.
She knew of a diamond mine with immeasurable value.
Tiffany knew very well that she definitely could not swallow such a big piece of cake with her background alone. And it may attract trouble.
But Treasure Tower had the strength to swallow it in one gulp. And she could make a fortune out of it.
However, for now, she could only wait for the right opportunity to make a deal with the owner of the Treasure Tower.
Seeing that Tiffany did not intend to say it out loud, June did not ask further.
From her point of view, the current Tiffany was much more mature than the innocent and naive Tiffany back then. Her thoughts were even heavier. June could not even guess what was on her mind.
June sighed imperceptibly. She was glad that Tiffany had become stronger to protect herself.
Soon, Tiffany arrived at Royal Bay.
For the past half a month, she had been visiting every day and was almost familiar with the place. She did not need the servants to lead her and rushed upstairs herself.
When the servants at the side saw her, they nodded respectfully and did not dare to disturb her.
Tiffany came to the child’s room.
Before she could open the door, she saw the door open from the inside. A young and beautiful girl ran out in a panic.
Their eyes met. Before Tiffany could say anything, the girl immediately frowned and scolded, “Who are you? Don’t you know the rules? How dare you barge in?”
‘How arrogant!’ Tiffany thought, raising her eyebrows and putting on a fake smile. “Who are you? Don’t you know that it’s easy to get beaten up if you speak so arrogantly?”
Who was the more arrogant one?’ The girl choked and became even angrier. She turned her head and shouted downstairs, “Someone, chase this crazy woman out!”
There was a commotion, and indeed, a few servants and bodyguards ran up. However, it was obvious that no one dared to disrespect the identity of the owner of Miracle Healer.
The bodyguard came up. He did not chase Tiffany away. Instead he frowned and shouted at the girl, “Ms. Hannah? Without Mr. Richard’s orders, you can’t come here. Please go down quickly.”
“Why can this woman come when I can’t?” Hannah couldn’t reconcile. She raised her voice and questioned, “I’m the third oldest daughter of the Hampton family. Do you have the guts to use violence on me?”
Tiffany suddenly understood that the girl who looked about the same age as her turned out to be Richard’s niece. That explained why she was so arrogant.
However, no matter what Hannah said, the bodyguards were unmoved. Seeing that she was not cooperating, they directly went forward and grabbed her, forcefully taking her downstairs.
“Let go! Let go of me! How dare you!” Hannah’s continuous clamoring and struggling voice went further and further away.
Tiffany found it a little funny. However, she did not want to care about other people’s family matters and went straight into the child’s room.
She treated the child as usual. However, not long after, Tiffany felt that something was wrong!
The vegetative person, who had a normal expression just now, was pale and breathless. He looked like he would die at any moment!
‘How did that happen?’ Tiffany was shocked. She recalled Hannah’s panic when she came out. This matter was probably related to her.’ Yet for now, the most important thing was to save the boy.
Tiffany took out her phone and prepared to call Richard. He wanted him to call Sidney over as soon as possible. Otherwise, the child might die.
However, at this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door.
Richard happened to be back. He ignored Hannah, who was being controlled by the bodyguards downstairs and went upstairs. Yet the moment he entered the room, he saw his nephew lying on the bed, pale and on the verge of death.
“You’re back. Just in time. Call Sidney over. I don’t know what happened, but the child suddenly…”
Halfway through her sentence, Tiffany saw a storm in Richard’s eyes that could devour and tear her apart at any moment! He was suspicious of her.
Tiffany wanted to say something, but she did not know how to defend herself.
Richard went forward and removed the medical equipment from the child’s body. Then he called Sidney.
Sidney rushed over hearing what happened.
Fortunately, Royal Bay was big, and there were small medical rooms and operating rooms. The medical equipment was even more advanced than that in the hospital.
It wasn’t the first time Sidney had saved someone. As the renowned Asclepius, he was calm throughout the entire process. Compared to his usual joking and bantering personality, he was now serious and calm, exuding a calming charm.
Tiffany stood outside the small operating theater with a frown.
The commotion on their side was a little big. Hannah, originally controlled by someone, broke free and ran towards the -operating theater. It was obvious that she knew the ins and outs of the matter. As soon as she arrived, she made things difficult for Tiffany
“I knew you were up to no good! I didn’t expect you to want to kill my brother!” She tried to blame it all on Tiffany.
Tiffany looked over coldly. “What are you saying? I remember you entered the child’s room before me, Ms. Hannah. Aren’t you suspicious at all?”

“Funny. What’s wrong with me going in to see my younger brother? Why was fine when you went in. You must have done something!”
Would I harm him? Besides, my younger brother
That was the problem. Tiffany frowned.
When she entered, the child was indeed fine, and there were no traces of poison on his body. However, after she treated him, the child’s heart almost stopped. This was not her field at all. She only hoped that Sidney could save the child.
Seeing that Tiffany did not speak, Hannah became even more arrogant. “You are feeling guilty!”
After saying that, she turned around and shouted at Richard, “Uncle Richard, this woman wanted to kill my brother. She’s unforgivable! You should cut off her arm and throw her into the sea!”
Richard repeated Hannah’s words and gave a half-smile. “That’s a good idea.”
Tiffany looked up in horror and saw Richard’s cold eyes.
Hannah was delighted when Richard’s voice cold voice came. “Do it.”
“Yes!” The bodyguards behind him immediately stepped forward.
They walked all the way to Tiffany. There was no ferociousness on their expressionless faces, but it made people shiver from the bottom of their hearts.
Hannah was even more arrogant.””Hmph.”
However, just as she smiled smugly, the bodyguards walked past Tiffany and headed straight for her…
Chapter 87
“You guys…”
Hannah was stunned. “What are you doing? Are you stupid? He told you to catch that woman!”
However, the bodyguards turned a deaf ear to her and went forward to restrain her firmly and roughly. When she struggled, their wrists instantly left bright red marks on her arms.
“Fools, not me!” Hannah was furious and scolded. She looked at Richard for help and said, “Uncle Richard, get these idiots to let go of me. How dare they treat me like this? They deserve to die!”
However, Richard faintly smiled. He looked at Hannah as if she was not his niece but someone who was about to die.
“How dare you barge into Royal Bay and hurt Evan! Well done.” Anyone could hear the killing intent in those words!
could
Hannah’s face was pale, and she trembled in fear. “Uncle Richard, I… I didn’t. Evan is my cousin. How could I do anything to Evan? It’s her! It’s this woman’s fault!” As he spoke, she pointed at Tiffany.
However, Richard asked the guards to take Hannah away and chop off one of her hands as she wished.
Everyone knew that Richard was temperamental. Anyone who offended him would either die or suffer something worse than death!
Hannah was shocked. She knew that her uncle would definitely do what he said. She wailed, begging for
mercy.
Soon after, a miserable scream was heard. Hannah’s arm was crippled. Then she was thrown out of Royal Bay.
When Jerry heard the news and rushed over, he saw his beloved youngest daughter lying on the side of the road, dripping with blood. His heart broke when he saw that. “Hannah, how are you? Don’t be afraid. It’s me.”
Hannah’s face was pale as she fainted.
Jerry’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He stood up and was about to rush into Royal Bay to settle the score.
However, the bodyguard who had thrown Hannah out stood in front of him like a mountain and said expressionlessly, “Mr Richard said that Ms. Hannah was supposed to be thrown into the sea. Since you’re here, please bring your daughter back and discipline her well in the future. Next time, no one could save her.” This sentence was a warning and a threat.
After saying that, the bodyguards went straight back to Royal Bay.
Jerry was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He was Richard’s half-brother, but 24 years older. Therefore, they
were never close.
In the early years, Jerry did not take Richard seriously. When he wanted to get rid of him, he suddenly realized that the smart boy Richard was unshakable.
Jerry asked Hannah to come to Royal Bay today. Yet he underestimated Richard’s ruthlessness.
Jerry’s face was ashen as he carried his daughter into the car. However, they were not going to the hospital, but to Hampton Manor. He wanted to seek justice from Hank.
At this moment, at the entrance of the small surgery, Tiffany stood rooted to the ground in a daze. It was not until she saw the
person take Hannah away and heard the miserable scream that she came back to her senses.
“Do you trust me that much?” She did not think that there was anything wrong with Richard’s approach. She was just surprised that he chose to believe her without asking anything.
There were only the two of them now.
Looking at Tiffany’s bewildered expression, Richard raised his eyebrows and said, “Evan is my biological nephew. Before my sister left, she transferred 30% of the shares I gave her to him.”
He didn’t finish the sentence. But Tiffany instantly understood.
Of all the offspring of the Hampton family, the only one who was closer to Richard was his sister. They had the same mother but his sister died soon.
Evan now had the 30% shares that Richard gave to his sister. Therefore, many people wanted it. People would do anything for such a big profit.
Tiffany looked at him. “Thank you for your trust.”
This time, it was a huge blow to those who were ready to make a move.
However, Hannah was Hank’s most beloved granddaughter, so they probably wouldn’t let it go this time.
Tiffany asked, “What if they turn to Hank for Justice?
“Justice?” Richard put on a bloodthirsty smile. “I’m justice.”
Tiffany was silent.
The big shots were all ruthless. She shouldn’t have expected Richard to be kind food?”
Fifteen minutes later, Sidney walked out of the operating theater, looking relaxed. The first thing he said was, “Hey, I’m hungry. Did you get someone to prepare
Clearly, Evan was fine.
After that, Evan was settled back in his room. He was still hooked up to an IV drip. Richard sent his trusted bodyguards to watch Evan at all times.
Sidney ate and said, “The reason why Evan’s heart stopped was because he got an injection. The drag circulated faster in his blood after your treatment. Fortunately, we found it before it caused too much harm.”
There was no poison. No wonder Tiffany did not sense it.
Hannah probably didn’t expect that she would be discovered in time, so, in a panic, she pushed the blame on Tiffany, who was the most suspicious at that time.
In the end, Hannah tasted her own medicine.
However, because of this, Evan couldn’t receive any treatment before his condition stabilized.
Tiffany left Royal Bay.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the group training.
At eight o’clock in the morning, all the students on the list gathered in school.
There were quite a number of people, but they were orderly. The school arranged for everyone in each class to vote for a captain to lead the assessment.
The vote went on smoothly in the other teams. However, the 20 participants from Tiffany’s team were instantly embarrassed.
According to the bet on the results of the previous examination, other than three to five people who did not participate in the bet, the remaining dozen or so people were all Tiffany lackeys.
Ged suddenly became the leader of the underlings. Seeing that they were hesitating, he immediately chuckled. “What’s going on? Why are all of you so rude? Why didn’t you greet Ms. Kelley?”
Tiffany’s team members were all proud sons and daughters of wealthy families. Previously, when they spoke, they were bold and ambitious. All of them were excited to see others make a fool of themselves.
Now that they had become that joke, they planned to go back on their word.
Hence, one of them shouted, “The assessment is so important. We have to have someone smart enough to convince the masses to lead us. Although we had a bet, we must take the vote seriously.”
“That’s right, that’s right. For the sake of the bigger picture, we can’t choose Tiffany. She doesn’t have the ability to lead,” another person added.
Ged clicked his tongue in response to everyone’s complaints. “Get lost cowards. Give up if you can’t afford to play.”
“Coward? Who are you talking about?” one of them asked.
“I’m talking about you!” Ged said.
“You’re happy to be ordered around, but we’re not!” the other person talked back.
Seeing that both sides were about to quarrel, Tiffany shot a glance at them and said with a faint smile, “Fight? As the saying goes, if you can’t win, join. I’m too lazy to take the title of captain, but I’m still willing to educate disobedient followers. What do you think?” As she said the last sentence, she even moved her joints twice, making cracking sounds.
Everyone looked at each other. They were really afraid of being beaten up, so they could only lower their heads reluctantly. “You’re the boss. You have the final say. Is that okay?”
Chapter 88
He still looked reluctant. But Tiffany was cheeky enough to accept it with a smile. She even nodded. “Good.”
Ged felt a little regretful. He signed and threw away the baseball bat hidden behind him.
People thought, ‘What the f***k! Heartless!’
After the episode, Kenneth was chosen as the captain.
In everyone’s eyes, Kenneth was trustworthy and responsible. He had an excellent upbringing and an agile mind. He had learned mixed martial arts since he was young and was very skilled. He was the perfect captain.
Tiffany was not surprised at all.
Kenneth was a jerk but he did have many good points. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been so blind in her previous life to devote herself to him.
After the arrangements were made, buses came to pick them up.
The details of the assessment were not revealed, so they sat in the car for more than two hours with an unknown novelty and finally stopped at the training camp.
This was a large-scale training base. The various training programs inside made people’s legs weak.
The excitement instantly died down. Everyone could not help but widen their eyes and point at the various tree stumps and iron nets on the field. They asked, “Are these all our training activities?”
However, no one answered.
After they arrived, more than ten buses arrived one after another. They were all students from noble schools from various places. As it was social training, there was also competition.
Perhaps it was because they were born at odds with each other, these people sneered at them as soon as they arrived. Several boys were instantly enraged. Growing up in rich families, they had never been despised like this.
They immediately wanted to fight, but Kenneth stopped them. “Fighting is prohibited, or you’ll be expelled.”
Kenneth pointed at the sign at the side and said, “This is the rule. If you don’t want to be sent back, calm down. Nothing is cooler than defeating them in the training.” His words were very persuasive.
Although the boys couldn’t reconcile, they didn’t want to be sent back yet.
Kenneth appeased them instantly.
Ged was standing beside Tiffany. When he saw this scene, he curled his lips in disdain. “Pretentious.”
Tiffany looked at him in amusement. “Didn’t you have a good relationship with him in the past?”
“You didn’t like him anymore, so I stopped too.” Ged puffed out his chest proudly, showing that he was on Tiffany’s side.
Ged puffed out his chest proudly, showing that he was on Tiffany’s side.
“Alright, based on what you said, if anything happens to you in the future, I’ll protect you,” Tiffany said it casually. Ged did not take it to heart.
He did not expect that Tiffany would fulfill this promise not long after!
All the teams had arrived and the buses had left. In the next two months, everyone would be staying in the training base.
As it was the first day, everyone’s mission today was to collect their clothes, supplies, and so on. Then, they were allocated accommodations. Everything was random.
Unfortunately, Tiffany was in the same dormitory as Sandra. She was speechless about that.
Tiffany stayed calm. Sandra smiled and greeted her first. “Tiffany, we’re together again.”
Kenneth frowned when he saw this arrangement. He wanted to apply for a transfer, but he was rejected by the instructor.
Hence, he warned Tiffany, “You’d better not have any ill intentions. If I find out that you bullied her, I won’t let you off.”
Tiffany dug her ears and smiled insincerely. “Why? Do you still want me to kneel to you?” She could hate this for the rest of her life although Richard saved her and gave Kenneth 50 whips in the end.
Tiffany had always been a vengeful person. Hence, she took a step forward with a flirtatious smile in her clear eyes. “Don’t let me seize the opportunity either. Otherwise, I’ll break your kneecap.”
She was very close to him. From afar, it looked like a whisper between lovers. However, the atmosphere was completely opposite. There was an undercurrent, and there was only endless hostility.
With that, Tiffany left.
Kenneth clearly hadn’t reacted yet. ‘Was she threatening me just now? Heh!’ Kenneth sneered
He was not in a good mood, but he said gently to Sandra, “Go. Tell me if you’re bullied.”
“Okay.” Sandra smiled sweetly. “You’re the best.”
Although she was drugged last time and almost messed things up, the good thing was, that Kenneth now treated her well and hated Tiffany very much at the same time.
Without the threat, there was nothing for her to worry about. Sandra was very relieved.
After the distribution was done, the rules of the training also came out.
They had mixed martial arts, shooting, running, and so on. Many students complained and kept scolding themselves for coming to suffer.
There were also people who wanted to slack off. However, if one slacked off, everyone would be punished! Anyone slacked off would be punished badly by the other students. Therefore, no one had the guts to do so.
Punishment from the instructor was not scary, but punishment from the students was.
Of course, some couldn’t hold on, such as Sandra. Her hand was injured and had yet to recover completely. If she ran like this, she would be exhausted to death. Therefore, Kenneth applied for her to be in charge of logistics.
Considering her injuries, the instructor agreed.
The other girls couldn’t help but be envious. “Wow, Mr. Harper is so nice to you. That’s too gentle and considerate.”
The relationship between Sandra and Kenneth had never been exposed.
Kenneth never told anyone that Sandra was his girlfriend, yet he never denied it either. So their relationship was extremely ambiguous.
Sandra smiled shyly and said, “Well, Kenneth has always been kind to me. I don’t want to be a burden to him…”

In the following half a month, under the strict training of the increasingly heavy missions, many girls could not hold on anymore. In the end, they cried and said that they wanted to quit.
Hence, some of them were really sent back. The rest of the boys and girls who couldn’t hold on and didn’t want to leave were assigned with logistical matters.
Many rich kids had never done any chores in their lives. Yet now they were doing things that servants did.
Among the girls, only Tiffany persevered.
For Tiffany, this was a precious opportunity.
Her fighting skills were not bad. She had learned them during the five humiliating years she was in prison in her previous. life.
However, she was too wild. The instructor picked on her many flaws. He said that she may win some small fights. But she would be defeated easily if she were to face a strong enemy.
Knowing where her weakness was, Tiffany learned even more seriously and diligently.
Most of the time, when others had already sat down to rest, she was still training with the instructor.
She was beaten down by the instructor time and time again and got up again.
Sweat poured down like rain, but it could not hide the tenacious soul under that exquisite appearance.
Ged really couldn’t figure out why she worked so hard.
Sometimes, when many boys gathered together, they could not help but look in that direction.
Under the scorching sun, that slender figure seemed to have endless explosive power. Tiffany was so beautiful that one could not take their eyes off her.
Previously, some people said that Tiffany looked good but was useless. Yet now, she was no less combative than any boy.
Apart from that, her beautiful muscles and the explosive power hidden under her delicate skin were filled with strength. She did not look rough but instead had a wild and flamboyant beauty.
This was no longer an attraction brought about by her appearance, but a breathtaking beauty that struck one’s soul!
Hence, someone muttered, “Was I blind in the past…”
Chapter 89
No one answered, but the infatuated expressions of most of the people present were enough to explain everything.
However, in the training camp, other than those who knew Tiffany in Lovell School, there were also those from other noble schools in other regions. They did not have any prejudice against Tiffany, so they praised her.
“Beautiful!” one boy said.
“She’s such a good fighter and she’s so good-looking. F**k, I really want to conquer her!” another boy said.
“Forget it. I’ve taken a fancy to this girl. I’m warning you, don’t sn**ch her from me!” These rich boys spoke without any scruples and were not worried that they’d be heard.
When these words clearly entered Kenneth’s ears, he subconsciously frowned.
Following everyone’s line of sight, he saw a slender and agile figure.
Kenneth’s eyes flashed.
Even though he hated Tiffany and was disgusted by her vicious thoughts, he had to admit that compared to Sandra, who was delicate, Tiffany, who was aggresive, was more attractive.
The invisible charm was the most fatal.
He forced himself not to look at it, but his eyes wandered around disobediently. Even when he heard others say that they wanted to pursue Tiffany, he felt uncomfortable all over…
Kenneth wanted to slap himself for thinking so.
At this time, Tiffany’s training had also come to an end.
The combat instructor who taught them casually pointed at them and shouted, “Someone come over. Let me see your improvement.”
He wanted someone to spar with Tiffany. Tiffany was eager to give it a try.
She was a noob who had lost many battles against the instructor, but she was more than enough to deal with these weak students.
Hearing this, the few.boys who had just said that they wanted to pursue Tiffany hurriedly ran over. None of them give in as if they would not have the chance to get close to Tiffany if they were late.
The instructor took a look. These were not his students. They were the students of the other instructors in the training ground. However, there was no need to divide them so clearly. He said, “One to one. You can begin.”
The boys all wanted to be the first. They almost got into a fight.
The instructor was a middle-aged man. He knew what these brats were thinking. Hence, he waved his hand. “What are you fighting for? If you continue to dawdle, scram back to your team
Hence, the boys looked at each other. Finally, they decided on the order.
The first boy to spar had delicate features and looked refined and handsome. He smiled at Tiffany and said, “Don’t worry, Tiffany. I won’t be ruthless to you.
Tiffany laughed and tilted her head. “Stop dawdling. The few of you, come together.” As she spoke, she * her finger.
This smile was soul-stirring The boys’ eyes were fixed on it.
Tiffany was the first to attack.
She wanted to break through her limits, so she did not hold back when she came up. One of the boys was kicked until he cried out, “Wow, are you serious? But I can’t hit you!”
It would be ungentleman for the four of them to attack a girl.
The instructor watched from the side and frowned.
Tiffany was one of the most promising students in his batch. She was talented and willing to work hard. She was very promising. He wanted to polish her even more, so he scolded, “There’s no gender in the trial ground. If you don’t fight back, you’ll be killed!”
It was probably because they were unable to resist Tiffany’s attacks, so the four boys joined forces to attack Tiffany.
‘Finally. Tiffany’s eyes lit up, but her attacks became even more ruthless.
At first, the four boys wanted to go easy on her, but the pressure was getting greater and greater. In the end, they had no choice but to fight back seriously!
Ten minutes later, the boys lay on the ground, and tears could not help but fall from the corners of their eyes.
They were too naive to think that some rookies like them could defeat Tiffany.
Tiffany won. People whistled.
Tiffany was drenched in sweat. She felt as if all the cells in her body were boiling with joy.
Tiffany reached out and pulled everyone up from the ground. Tiffany said to the instructor, “Sir, I still want to find someone to compete with.”
“Sure, go ahead.” The instructor still had that unsmiling face, but there was a hint of anticipation and gratification in his eyes.
Tiffany turned around. Her clear eyes flashed, and her gaze slowly shifted among the onlookers. In the end, she pointed with a provocative smile on her face. “You.” Her red lips parted slightly and she said slowly, “Do you dare to compete with me?”
The person she was referring to was Kenneth!
At this moment, everyone who knew about their relationship erupted. ‘F***k, fick, there is going to be a good show. Hence, all of them widened their eyes, afraid that they would miss the spark.
Their relationship was complicated. So people were eager to see what would happen.
Of course, only students from Lovell School knew the inside story. The other boys who wanted to get close to Tiffany because of her looks recommended themselves. “I… I… I! I can also practice with you. I can even be you a sandbag!”
However, Tiffany did not even look at them. Her cold gaze was fixed on Kenneth. “Do you dare?”
“As you wish.” Kenneth walked into the trial field.
The tense atmosphere between the two of them made the surrounding people not dare to breathe loudly. People thought that Tiffany was trying to attract her ‘fiancé’s attention, but they did not know that she was taking revenge.
Without any pretense, Tiffany directly attacked.
Kenneth had been practicing mixed martial arts and fighting since he was young. His methods and techniques were indeed strong. In terms of physical fitness and strength, there was already a huge disparity between men and women. Therefore,
Tiffany had a hard time during the entire exchange. She could not avoid being injured.
Kenneth originally thought that they were just practicing. He did not expect Tiffany to be so ruthless. She was like a wild beast that did not care about her life. With that crazy fighting method, she would not hesitate to injure herself even if she had to injure the enemy!
Relying on her beliefs and the viciousness of wanting to eat his flesh and skin him alive, she forced him to the edge of the iron net step by step. Then she kicked his knee.
Kenneth’s legs went weak and he almost fell to one knee.
Just as he was about to retaliate, he suddenly remembered that at the banquet not long ago, he saw Sandra, who had almost lost his innocence after being drugged. He was furious and wanted Tiffany to kneel down and apologize! He got the bodyguard to kick her hard, on the knee. The exact same spot.
Kenneth was stunned. ‘Is that a revenge?’
After this kick, Tiffany retracted her hand and left without looking at Kenneth again. She had said that one day, she would return everything she had suffered!
If she got the chance, she would cripple Kenneth’s legs, skin him alive and cut him into pieces!
After today’s two consecutive matches, Tiffany’s reputation was confirmed. In a short period, she became famous in the entire training camp.
Many people wanted to approach her.
Chapter 90
Sandra was not in the training ground, so she knew about it later When she heard that Tiffany had publicly challenged Kenneth, alarm bells rang in her heart.
‘What was she trying to do? Does she want to attract Kenneth’s attention again?’ she wondered.
Kenneth did not give her a status. When Sandra mentioned it, he would tell her that his family objected. This made her feel even more threatened. She could not even warn other women as his girlfriend. In truth, she was nothing, but Tiffany was his fiancée.
Thinking of that, Sandra couldn’t reconcile.
Tiffany really did not know. Otherwise, she would definitely laugh. Because while Kenneth was important to Sandra, Tiffany didn’t care about him at all.
Sandra thought about it for a long time. The sense of crisis made her leave the dormitory and go to the training ground to look for Tiffany. Halfway, she met a woman.
Sandra knew this woman. It was Mia, the daughter of the big shot of Real Estate in Lovell City.
Of course, Mia had also participated in this trial. However, because they were from different batches and the training ground was also large, they had never had the chance to meet.
&
Sandra was stunned. She did not remember knowing her. “What can I do for you?”
“Let’s make a deal.” Mia smiled confidently. “A deal that you like and wish for.”
“Oh?” Sandra flipped her hair, unsurprised. “Tell me about it.” She knew that there was a grudge between Mia and Tiffany. Last time, Mia was suspended from school for a week because of a fight. Therefore, she could vaguely guess what this deal
was.
As expected, Mia said, “The real trial will begin next week. At that time, everyone will be arranged to go out. You will be in the same dormitory as that b**h, so I hope you can do something like this…”
In the empty corridor of the dormitory building, two women stood together and plotted the next transaction.
By the time Tiffany returned to the dormitory to take a shower after training, Mia had already left. Even Sandra was not in the dormitory.
Tiffany was glad.
She took her clothes and went into the bathroom. Fortunately, other than the strict rules, the conditions in the training base were not bad. At least the dormitory was equipped with everything, including water and electricity. It was very convenient.
After taking a shower, she casually wiped her hair and sat on the bed. She reached under the blanket and found her phone. No electronic products were allowed in this training. If they wanted to call home, they could only use the landline in the training base. Tiffany had to contact June at any time, so he secretly hid her phone
She turned on her phone and saw that there were a few missed notifications.
She called back. “June, what’s the matter?”
June said, “The Hampton family sent a message over. They said that the patient’s condition is stable now. They asked when you can make a trip there. If you can’t escape, I’ll put it off.”
“Put it off.” Tiffany said, “I’ve been training in the camp for the past few days. It’s very difficult to go out

“Okay.” June asked again, “By the way, the real estate tycoon, Conner offered two million dollars to invite you. How do you
think?”
“Conner?” Tiffany pondered for a moment. ‘It seemed to be Mia’s father.’ She laughed. “I’m not satisfied with the price, so
no.”
“I understand.” After all, the two of them had been together for many years, so they naturally had this tacit understanding. June nodded in understanding and hung up.
Tiffany scrolled through her phone and saw that there were also calls from Zoe. Tiffany told her about the situation here. They both laughed.
“Tiffany, I’m eating barbecue. Can you smell it?”
Tiffany gritted her teeth. “That’s mean. Goodbye.” The call ended. There were no other calls that needed a reply, so Tiffany turned her phone off again to avoid being discovered.
On the other hand, Zoe was indeed at the barbecue restaurant. Yet she was not eating, but watching other people eat, in waiter’s uniform.
She was working part-time there. Yesterday, she was fined 10 dollars for breaking a plate. At this moment, she was hiding in the toilet and hanging up the phone. The smile on her face gradually disappeared.
When she returned home after a busy day, her father scolded her.
“Wretched girl, where did you go again? You’re running around every day during the holidays. Don’t study next semester. The tuition fees are expensive. What’s the use of studying so much? You might as well stay at home and get married!”
Zoe seemed to be tired of hearing such words. She was used to it and walked straight in.
In the end, in a corner of the living room, she saw her mother curled up in a corner, covered in injuries.
Zoe stopped in her tracks. She turned around and glared at her father. “You hit my mom whenever you’re drunk. Can you be a man?”
A rough slap landed on her face. Her ears were buzzing, and her head felt heavy.
‘Again!’ Zoe threw her bag and left this depressing and desperate home.
Her father hit people when he was drunk. Her mother was obedient. To her, there was no warmth at home.
Zoe wanted to be alone, but she didn’t bring her bag, wallet, or phone.
She was penniless and homeless. She wanted to die countless times.
After walking for a long time, she suddenly heard the sound of a car honking behind her. Zoe turned around in frustration and saw a person leaning against the car, who looked handsome and refined.
It was Sidney.
Zoe was stunned. Unexpectedly, she recalled how this guy had flirted with her from time to time a while ago. She could scold him however she wanted through the screen. Now that they met, she could not help but recall their awkward encounter. Hence, Zoe turned around and ran.
She didn’t want anyone to see her in such a sorry state!
However, how could she be faster than a car?
Sidney followed behind her as if he was walking a dog.
“Are you done?” Zoe was furious. She suddenly turned around and said fiercely, “Can you stop following me!”
Sidney got out of the car and walked towards her. He even whistled and teased, “What’s wrong? I’m your savior after all. Are you going to turn your back on me like this?”
When he mentioned this, Zoe wanted to poke his eyes for having seen her naked.
Zoe was so angry that he rushed forward, wanting to get rid of him. Out of sight, out of mind.
Sidney chased after her again and said lazily, “Hey, it’s so late at night. It’s not safe for a girl’s house. Hurry up and go home. If you don’t mind, I can give you a free ride,”
Zoe’s expression turned even colder. “No need. Thank you for your kindness.”
“Hey.” No matter how Sidney called, Zoe refused to turn back.
It was already early in the morning, and there were not many pedestrians on both sides of the street. Only the resplendent neon lights reflected the world. The stars in the night sky flashed and echoed with the river outside the guardrail, like long lights converging with the galaxy. The night scenery was beautiful.
The night breeze by the riverside was gentle. It could calm down a lot of the frustration, but it could not calm down Zoe’s despair.
The negative emotions she had been experiencing over the years had reached a saturation point. She felt like a full balloon that could explode at any moment..
In such a sorry state, she only wanted to be alone. She did not want anyone to see her sorry and helpless state…
However, Sidney wouldn’t leave her alone.
The two of them were in a deadlock for a long time. In the end, Sidney passed her and blocked her path. He said helplessly, “It’s not safe for you to wander alone. It’s too late. I’ll send you back.”
However, this sentence ignited Zoe. She pushed him away and said angrily, “I told you not to follow me anymore. Let me be alone! It’s none of your business whether I’m safe or not!”
