Chapter 167

Ophelia's eyelid twitched; she hadn't expected this matter to be connected to the other person's influence. However, she didn't quite understand why Elva felt entitled to take her spot. While she was in doubt, her sleeve was suddenly and quietly pulled down by Lucy.

“Ophelia, maybe it’s better to just forget it…”

Previously, Lucy had been furious, but at that moment, she seemed to hesitate, wanting to withdraw. Ophelia looked at the other person in surprise. Lucy whispered to her:

“Do you remember the junior we mentioned to you before, who had an impressive background? It’s Elva!”

“If it was Elva who wanted this spot, we really had no choice but to give it up; otherwise, we would have offended the people behind her…”

Ophelia looked strange. Elva’s background was impressive. Who did she refer to in her background? Was it Bertha, whom Ophelia had just scolded yesterday?

“Forget it, Ophelia, let’s go,” the other urged her in a muffled voice, feeling frustrated.

Hannah awkwardly said, “You shouldn’t take that regular spot either. You were originally first, and Elva’s current spot is considered as you giving it up. Once you join the etiquette team, she will definitely look at you unfavorably…”

“No, I want to, why shouldn’t I?” Ophelia said calmly. Without waiting for anyone to say much more, she turned to Paul and said, “I will stay!”

“Ophelia, how could you agree to that!”

After leaving the office, Lucy immediately became very anxious. Others looked at Ophelia with concern. “Yeah, Elva would definitely target you then!”

“Even the vice principal favored her, which shows how strong her background was. What would you do if you got bullied then?”

Seeing the worried looks on everyone’s faces, Ophelia said calmly, “Don’t worry, I had a plan.”

A group of people walked out of the office building.

“It was Elva!” Lucy suddenly exclaimed.

Ophelia followed her gaze and immediately saw Elva, who was surrounded by a group of people like a star being adored by the crowd. She squinted her eyes. Elva also saw her, her heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively stopped in her tracks, feeling somewhat lacking in confidence. However, she soon seemed to think of something, straightened her back, and cast a somewhat provocative glance at Ophelia before leaving with a swagger.

“Ha, is that Ophelia? Not that impressive, huh? She used to be so arrogant, but now that Elva has taken her spot, she didn’t dare to say a word!”

“Hehe, she must have been so angry now, right? It’s a pity, though; no matter how angry she got, it was useless. That spot had already belonged to Elva, and when the time came to host that mysterious big shot, it would only be Elva who would do it!”

Elva’s followers were extremely proud.

“However, Elva, why did the vice principal suddenly replace someone with you?”

Hearing this question, a shy and expectant smile appeared on Elva’s lips, and she proudly said:

“Because the mysterious VIP who was to be received had some connection with me.”

“What relationship was it?”

The followers were puzzled and speculating, when suddenly, Sarah had a flash of inspiration.

“Could it be that your mysterious big shot boyfriend, Elva, is the one?!”

Elva smiled sweetly and did not deny it.

“Oh my God!” The followers exclaimed. Elya’s smile became even more triumphant.

She had just learned the news from Paul, and she hadn’t expected that the legendary figure would actually be Mr. Winford! Thinking about standing together with Mr. Winford in front of all the teachers and students at that time made her so excited that her heart felt like it was about to jump out!

As for why she dared to take Ophelia’s spot, why she didn’t worry about Mr. Winford’s side? Of course, it was because she still had a valuable bargaining chip in her hands – Mr. Winford had said that if she got accepted into Ventura University, he would fulfill one of her wishes, and she hadn’t used that wish yet!

On the other side, watching Elva walk away, Ophelia tugged at her lip. She turned to Lucy and said, “What rumors about Elva are there at school? Find out and let me know.”

She wanted to know when Elva, the daughter of a maid, became a wealthy heiress from a prominent family. Moreover, where did Elva get the confidence to dare to provoke her like that?

Lucy: “Okay, I’ll inquire about it later!”

Ophelia returned to the apartment. During dinner, she thought of something and looked up at Winford, saying, “Honey, I might be a bit busy at school these days and may come back a little later.”

Winford held a snow-white napkin and gently and delicately wiped away a bit of soup from the corner of her mouth. “What were you busy with?”
