Chapter 85 It was a long drive from George’s villa to Westside High. By the time they arrived, the second period was already underway. As usual, the school security didn’t stop their car, and Nancy drove smoothly onto the campus. Even during class, a few students could be seen wandering
Chapter 84 Meet him? Please. In his wildest dreams. Who gave him the confidence to think she wanted to see him? Marguerite ignored the request again, but George’s words from earlier echoed in her mind. “Marguerite, you shouldn’t set your standards so low p> It hadn’t clicked then, but now

Chapter 82 He had seen the video of the crash. If a heavy-duty truck had been there to block her car, she probably never would have plunged into the river. His eyes drifted to the girl’s slender figure as she started up the stairs. George adjusted his glasses with one
Chapter 81 It was a simple sentence, but as the words left his lips, a thin layer of sweat slicked Theobald’s palms. On the one hand, he didn’t want to start rumors about Marguerite. She was only eighteen, and the idea of her living with a man would tarnish her
Chapter 80 Joshua scoffed. “Powerful CEO? In front of the Green family, he’s nothing.” He had just been too lazy to take over the family business; it was too much work. “Still, maybe it’s not a good idea,” Hannah said. “If you call him, he’ll just deny that he’s been
Chapter 79 Joshua returned to his Northpine villa that afternoon. He had lost count of how many friend requests he had sent to Marguerite. The first was noted with: Joshua. The second: Marguerite, it’s Joshua. The third: Accept my request, Marguerite. I miss you. He continued sending them, but they

Chapter 77 Habit is a terrifying thing. Usually, the moment Marguerite arrived at the villa gate, she would message George. He always replied instantly and would be there to open the gate within moments. This time, there was only silence, and Marguerite found it strange. “The lights are all off.
Chapter 76 Theobald’s fingers tightened on the steering wheel, his brow deeply furrowed. “So, you think Aaron doesn’t want to come back because he’s worried his adoptive mother will be a burden on us p> He knew how considerate Aaron was.

Chapter 75 Having grown up in Northpine, Theobald had heard of Westside High. It was known as the worst high school in the city, filled with delinquents just coasting by, a chaotic environment where only a handful of students ever made it to a decent university. While his and Simon’s
Chapter 74 Marguerite could see Theobald was deeply distressed. She took a sip of her bubble tea. “He’s a student at Westside High. I didn’t get a chance to ask much else. Let’s go to the school and see what we can find out.” It was better to understand why
Chapter 73 Her fingers, holding the note, felt stiff. A heavy expression settled on her beautiful face. What was wrong with that little rascal? No wonder he’d sent Yellow away first. His reaction to seeing her had clearly shown he still cared, so why wouldn’t he come home? Was it
Chapter 72 Inside the dean’s office, Joshua’s eyes were glued to the computer screen. The girl’s captivating eyes seemed to pierce through the monitor and look straight into his soul. In that moment, Joshua was certain. This was Marguerite. One hundred percent, it was her. His heart pounded in his
Chapter 71 But Marguerite could hear the lie in his voice. He hadn’t been doing well at all. Reliving past pain was like tearing open an old wound; it would only hurt again. She decided not to press him for details right away. “Look at you, all grown up into
Chapter 70 Once the crowd had dispersed, Marguerite jumped down from a large tree near the gym entrance. Yellow was stunned. He had no idea how the angel sister had managed to scramble up the tree in the blink of an eye. Aaron, however, took it in stride. They’d had
Chapter 69 Fortunately, this was a society governed by law. George now had status and power, and with that came constraints. So he hadn’t killed him, just delayed him. Joshua took a deep breath, frowning. But then again, he wasn’t so sure. It was hard to say what George was
Chapter 68 Pinecrest High’s campus was huge. It had expanded significantly over the past decade with the construction of new buildings. Joshua had rarely returned since graduating, aside from a couple of appearances as a distinguished alumnus to motivate the senior class. But only his graduating class knew the truth:
Chapter 67 He slapped Yellow on the back of the head. “Did that hurt p> It was a swift, unexpected strike. Tears welled up in Yellow’s eyes. “Yeah! That hurt like hell p> Marguerite rubbed her nose. Being this delinquent’s sidekick must be some kind of karmic punishment. Tʜe sourcᴇ
Chapter 66 Aaron? He couldn’t remember the last time someone had called him by that name. Maybe someone at Pinecrest High had the same name? Despite this thought, Aaron instinctively paused. The voice was familiar, yet strangely foreign. It was a feeling he couldn’t quite describe. Had a classmate from
