At the gates of Riverdale High School, a large crowd of reporters surrounded the entrance, hoping to interview Lillian. They had staked out the spot for half a day but still hadn’t caught sight of her.
Inside the classroom.
Natalie scrolled excitedly through her phone. “Lillian, you’re incredible p>
Lillian could only feel helpless about the situation. She hadn’t expected someone to upload the video online and cause such a sensation.
And the extent of the video’s popularity had far surpassed her expectations. The last time, she had been able to deal with the footage, but this time it was clearly impossible. All she could do now was let things take their course, one step at a time.
Eda stared at the reports about Lillian on the internet, her face twisted. Her fingers clenched so tightly around her phone that her knuckles turned white. She never would have thought that what was meant to humiliate Lillian in front of the entire school and the leaders would turn into this instead. Her cousin had warned her that Lillian was cunning, but she had scoffed at it. Now it seemed she had truly underestimated this girl.
Before long, basic information about Lillian was dug up online, though only the most surface-level details.
Nora also hadn’t expected Lillian to rise to fame from this. Watching Lillian and Natalie leave the school together, chatting and laughing as they got into a car, made her grind her teeth in hatred.
Just then, as her thoughts wandered, someone suddenly covered her mouth from behind. In an instant, she lost consciousness.
As for the video’s sudden popularity, Lillian didn’t pay much attention and kept busy with her own affairs.
When the reporters failed to find her and couldn’t dig up much information, they stopped waiting at the school.
But because of this matter, Lillian’s Twitter followers instantly shot up to a million.
Even though she hadn’t confirmed anything, everyone believed she was the same person.
That day after school, Lillian was waiting by the gate for Jill. They had agreed to go shopping together, but after waiting for a long time, Jill still hadn’t appeared. Just as she was about to call, a message popped up.
“If you want to find your friend, go to Westgate Warehouse p>
Lillian read the message again. She dialed Jill’s number, but the phone was switched off. With no way to be certain, she decided to go.
The cab drove her to the area near Westgate Warehouse and she got out close by, walking to Warehouse No.
Several men in black stood at the entrance. Seeing a girl approach, they asked, “Lillian p>
Lillian looked at them and sneered coldly. “You invitede here, and you still need to ask who I am p>
The men opened the warehouse door. Lillian walked straight inside. The vast space held over a dozen people. The man standing at the front smiled as she entered. “Hello, Ms. Lillian. Forgive us for inviting you

in this way. I hope you don’t mind p>
Lillian stared at him coldly. “Where is my friend p>

“Don’t worry. As long as you come with us, I guarantee she’ll be sent back safely,” the man said.
Lillian’s voice was ice. “And what guarantee is that worth I want to see her now p>
Hearing him say friends meant it wasn’t just one person. She didn’t understand how they knew who she was close to at school.
The man didn’t argue and signaled for them to be brought out. A door on the second floor opened, and Jill and Rina were led out. The moment Jill saw Lillian, she shouted, “Lillian, run! They’re here to take you p>
Lillian saw that both of them were unharmed and asked, “Are you alright? But how did you both end up caught together p>
Given the situation, Jill gradually steadied herself when she saw Lillian so calm. “I was waiting for you at the gate. Rina was waiting for her family’s driver, so we started talking. Then Nora suddenly came over and started cursing you for no reason, so I argued with her. After that, I don’t remember. When I woke up, I was here p>
Lillian thought it through once and understood. She must have fallen into Nora’s trap. That wretch. Forcing down the anger in her chest, she turned to the man in black. “Let my friends go. I’ll come with you p>
There were too many people here. If it were just her, she could guarantee her own escape. But with Jill and Rina in their hands, she couldn’t. For now, she could only go with them.
The man considered for a moment, then agreed. “Fine. We’ll release them, but you must come with us first p>
Lillian sneered. “I said I’d go, so I will. What, are you afraid of a single girl p>
“Apologies,” the man said. “We only need to make sure you come with us. Please understand p>
Seeing that they were determined, and that they hadn’t harmed her from the start, it seemed they truly only wanted to take her away. Lillian nodded. “Alright, I’ll go. But listen-once they let you go, go straight home. Don’t worry about me, and make sure to ask for leave on my behalf p>
With that, the men in black led Lillian out.
Behind the warehouse, a helicopter was waiting. Once she boarded, they confiscated her phone and bag. From the situation, it was clear she had no choice but to adapt.
