Chapter 255 Kyla’s Friends

Tilda just smiled and didn’t say anything.

She was thinking that a week after the orientation party, the International College Art Competition would start. Since Christmas was coming, the organizers abroad planned to hold the competition early. By then, Tilda would be flying overseas with Simon. This time, she was determined to come back with the world champion trophy. She’d make her country and Dane proud!

Just then… Shaun walked into the classroom.

“Tilda, I’ve been looking for you.”

Tilda stood up and raised an eyebrow. “Professor Manning, is everything all right?”

“Well, the orientation party is about to start. All the professors voted and decided that you, as their senior and an outstanding representative of Orica University, should give a speech to the freshmen.”

Una was surprised. “Huh? Professor Manning, isn’t this usually the student council president’s job? Why Tilda?”

“Ahem, this year’s a bit special. Tilda not only broke my programming record but also became a national champion. So it’s normal for everyone to vote for Tilda to be the representative. I just don’t know if Tilda will accept it.”

Tilda thought for a moment and said, “Yeah, I’ll do it.”

“That’s great! I’ll report this to the dean…”

After Shaun left, Una rested her chin on her hands, eyes sparkling. “Tilda, I suddenly feel like this just got way more interesting. What do we do now?”

“Just focus on what we need to do,” Tilda replied calmly.

The only reason she agreed to Shaun’s request was to provoke Kyla, to make her more and more jealous. Once Kyla had a strong desire to get rid of Tilda, she would fall hard for Tobias’ sweet words. And when the Jensons finally found out… that’s when things would get interesting.

When Tilda went to the bathroom, she happened to run into Kyla. Kyla was with two of her best friends. Tilda knew both of them. One was Sara Moore, the heiress of a cosmetics company. The other was Jennie Johnson, the heiress of a toy company. Both companies were pretty big in Slosa. You could tell by the latest big-name clothes Sara and Jennie were wearing. They dressed stylishly but with exaggerated flair, looking a little flashy. But compared to the Jenson Group, their families were small potatoes. Kyla was wearing the newest limited-edition clothes. One piece of her outfit cost more than everything Sara and Jennie wore combined.

It was obvious that Sara and Jennie were just Kyla’s simps. For Kyla, the more simps, the better—it meant more pawns to use for her own advantage, especially the simps who were so close to her at Orica University! In her past life, these two simps caused Tilda a lot of problems at Orica University.

Tilda smirked. She didn’t think this was a coincidence. After all, there were no freshman classes on this floor today. Even if they went to the bathroom, freshmen would only be on the fourth floor—they wouldn’t come all the way up to the sixth. She was curious to see what Kyla was plotting.

Tilda ignored Kyla, humming a little tune as she walked into the restroom.

A flash of hatred crossed Kyla’s eyes. Kyla had already gotten the news the day before: her scheduled freshman representative speech was canceled. All that was left was a performance. Originally… this was supposed to be Kyla’s big break—the starting point of her shining career in the entertainment industry. As a freshman representative and an outstanding performer, countless media companies were supposed to notice her talent, then compete to sign her. This time, Tilda ruined everything!

As Tilda walked past Kyla, Kyla suddenly spoke up, “Tilly…” She reached out, trying to grab her.

Tilda calmly stepped aside. “Kyla, don’t call me that. It makes me sick. And don’t act for me. I don’t fall for your two-faced tricks. Go perform for people who will believe you.”

Tilda knew just how shameless Kyla was. Kyla had been humiliated by Tilda so many times, yet she still dared to approach her like this, acting weak and innocent. She was probably just putting on a show for her two followers.

Wanna play? Fine. Let’s see if you can handle it!

“Tilda, you’re going too far! Kyla just wants to make up with you!”

“Is what everyone’s saying true? That as the real heiress of the Jenson family, you couldn’t stand an adopted daughter, so you made it a public scandal and cut ties with the Jensons?”

As expected. Sara and Jennie were completely brainwashed by Kyla. Hearing Tilda’s words, they immediately jumped to defend their friend. They were eager to flatter Kyla and keep her pleased. That way, when their family’s companies wanted to work with the Jenson Group, they would have a connection.
