Chapter 126

Regarding the use of the Greene family’s belongings to benefit others, the stepdaughter was also part of the Greene family and didn't take anything valuable. Ophelia was being overly petty to fuss about this! Thinking this, they all stepped forward to comfort Bessie.

Bessie secretly smiled and said weakly yet gratefully, “Thank you… Thank you! I didn’t expect that there would still be people willing to believe in me!”

Thinking of Ophelia’s words before leaving, a flicker of unease crossed her mind, but she quickly suppressed it.

Next Monday? Ah, regarding the matter with Jasper, she had always been very careful and left no traces at all. How could Ophelia possibly have any evidence!

I was pulling my cousin’s sleeve and excitedly asking, “Cousin, what are you going to do next Monday?” How could my cousin possibly brag! Since she said it, Bessie was definitely going to be in trouble!

Ophelia winked at her and mysteriously said, “You will know when the time comes.” As for why it was next Monday, it was of course because the next day was the weekend. Moreover, next Monday was the welcome party.

In her past life, Bessie didn’t miss the opportunity to show off. She signed up for a performance at the party and became famous for a dance at Ventura University, even gaining popularity online. In this lifetime, the other party surely didn’t let such a good opportunity slip away.

A beautiful arc curled at the corners of Ophelia’s lips, and her enchanting eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of malice. Since Bessie wanted to go viral, this time, she let the other party become famous all over the internet!

Lenora had no classes in the afternoon and was preparing to go home. The two of them arrived at the school gate and saw the Whitaker family’s car—Freya had actually come to pick up her daughter in person!

Lenora instinctively turned her head and said, “Cousin…”

“Go ahead,” Ophelia said calmly, while she moved aside slightly to block her own figure. Having been reborn, she didn’t want to reconcile with her maternal grandfather’s family, but at that time, it was not yet the right moment.

In the past few years, under the instigation of Erin and Bessie, she had deeply hurt her grandfather’s family. Without achieving anything, how could she have the face to show up? How could her grandfather and the others believe her or acknowledge her?

After all, what they wanted to see was an excellent successor who could perfectly inherit their mother’s legacy, rather than a useless person who was manipulated by Erin and Bessie and accomplished nothing!

The Whitaker family did not like her at all. If Freya—her aunt—had seen her spending time with Lenora, she would have probably ordered Lenora to stay away from her. Lenora knew this as well, so she could only suppress what she wanted to say and walked over there in silence.

Watching her cousin get into the car, Ophelia turned and walked towards the apartment. They had only been apart for one morning, but she had already started to miss her husband! Thinking of him waiting for her at home, her steps became urgent.

The apartment. Graham finished a phone call and respectfully said, “Mr. Winford, Mr. Merritt has arrived!” He referred to Mr. Merritt, who was Bryson from the Merritt family, Mr. Winford’s childhood friend and best brother. Bryson’s legs were disabled, and he had lost his position as the heir of the Merritt family. A few days ago, he mentioned that he wanted to come to Minston for recuperation, and now he had finally arranged his affairs and came over from Kingchester.

On the sofa, the imposing man nodded and said, “Let him go directly to Sunset Vista.” He habitually looked outside, while glancing at the time, and the corners of his lips immediately turned down slightly.

It was just two classes; it should have been time to finish and come back. There were no people in sight at that time. Where had they gone? Were they staying with their classmates?

The woman who claimed to be her friend said that many boys at school wanted to pursue her… The thoughts sank down, and a layer of gloom also covered the handsome and sharp brows.

Feeling the sudden drop in atmospheric pressure around them, Graham and Alfred, who had received the order, held their breath and focused, not daring to make a sound. Just when the atmosphere was tense and almost suffocating, a graceful and charming figure suddenly appeared below. She walked over with a light step, and suddenly, as if sensing something, she looked up abruptly.
