“But so what?”“Prince York doesn’t even look at you! You followed him for so many years, but you still haven’t made a name for yourself!”“Things are different now. Since Prince Leo took pity and turned his attention to you, you should cherish this opportunity!”“You should thank the heavens that he didn’t see you as some sort of vixen. How dare you still reject his proposal?!”“Are you that shameless?!”At Ivan’s words, the rest of the Xaviers nodded in approval.They looked at Yvonne Xavier as if she was a gold mine.If she agreed to marry Chris Leo, the benefits the Xaivers would enjoy would be far beyond anyone’s imagination.“Oh, Yvonne. It’s not that I have anything against you, but women need to take care of themselves…”“Let’s talk about Prince York who never left your mind. Didn’t he get rejected in front of a huge crowd while proposing to a stupid woman?”“But even when he was rejected, he never did consider you.”“Yvonne. Even if you don’t think anything of the f
Buckwood High School.Xynthia Zimmer’s head was hung low as she made hurried steps, as if she was fleeing from something.When she got to the entrance of the school, a few girls stood there, blocking her path.“Why are you running, Xynthia? You’re fast! You didn’t hook up with an old man for money now, did you?”“I couldn’t tell! You usually seemed like an obedient little girl, and you wouldn’t accept anyone’s confession. To make money this way, I can’t believe you’re such a loose girl!”“You can just tell us if you’re short on cash. We can relieve you of your stress. There’s no need to degrade yourself to this point!”These girls had a terrible relationship with Xynthia.Xynthia never paid any attention to the boys in her class, especially after the KTV affair. Only her brother-in-law was in her mind. It was the reason why she rejected quite a few boys that could be considered exceptional.Because of this, quite a few girls became terribly jealous of Xynthia.If they had a ch
Xynthia was not an idiot. She knew full well that once the recording spread, the rumors and slanders would never stop.“We have nothing against each other. Why are you doing this to me?!”Xynthia was perplexed.“Don’t you know that girls like you are no better than filthy street rats? Everyone should condemn you!”“Since you have a rich old man supporting you, you’re tarnishing the reputation the whole school! I’ll punish you in place of the school authorities. What other reason do I need?”Yelena Surrey shot Xynthia a look of disdain. She would not reveal her true intentions.However, it couldn’t be denied that she was enjoying the whole thing.Xynthia’s face darkened. She had no one to help her, and she couldn’t snatch the phone out of Selena’s hands.Agreeing to Yelena Surrey’s conditions was the equivalent of having a new leverage against herself.Once the recording was exposed, Xynthia would end up lonelier than before.What should she do?Xynthia subconsciously grabbed
Harvey did not start the engine when he and Xynthia entered the car. Instead he frowned at her.“Xynthia, tell me what’s going on. Why were the girls picking on you?”His question made Xynthia feel wronged.“Brother-In-Law, do you remember the KTV situation? I don’t really hang out with my classmates anymore after that.”“But this Zane guy keeps chasing after me. He confessed to me publicly quite a few times already, but I rejected him every single time.”“Yelena started to hate me because of that. I heard rumors saying she likes Zane.”Harvey massaged his eyebrows, speechless after listening to everything.It took him a while to recall who Zane Shaw was.‘Isn’t he the kid that I bumped into when I was taking Xynthia home from KTV?’‘And this Yelena kid…’ ‘What is this?’‘A soap opera between classmates?’“How did something so simple escalate to this point?”Harvey fell in deep thought. From what he saw Yelena did today, these highschoolers’ little drama did not have to g
The class teacher wore a firm expression. She knew that although Xynthia was a transfer student, Xynthia was an extremely hardworking and diligent pupil. She whole-heartedly opposed the idea of expelling Xynthia.“Principal! The situation was only a misunderstanding between the pupils. You mustn’t expel a good student because of something so minor!”Listening to the class teacher’s exclamation, Zane Shaw’s mother stood up furiously.“A misunderstanding? How could you call this a misunderstanding?!”“Zane is an outstanding student! I raised him with my own sweat and tears!”“It’s an honor both for him and us to have Lady Surrey look up to him!”“Even the parents can tell he’s fit for her!”“But then this wretched little tramp, Xynthia Zimmer, wanted to take all of the Shaw family’s money to climb up the social hierarchy!”“That’s why she wanted to destroy the two’s relationship!”“Bad students like her should be expelled!”Her logic was obviously skewed.A petty affair betwee
The accusation of Zane’s mother pushed the enchanting and alluring Miss Yuna into shivering with anger.Because of her beautiful eyes and sensual body along, with her kind heart, there had been gossip everywhere about her.But Miss Yuna was someone with good moral integrity. How could a woman like that be bought when she hadn’t even fallen in love yet?Miss Yuna could not hold in her anger anymore.“Mrs. Shaw, please watch your language!”“Stop spouting nonsense!”“If you don’t have any proof, I’ll sue you for slander!”“Sue me? Do it, then!”Zane’s mother was behaving incredibly shamelessly.“If you weren’t a loose woman, then why are you protecting that tramp Xynthia Zimmer?”“It’s all because of unclean teachers like you that students like my son would even have a chance to be born!”“How dare you sue me? Have you no shame?!”Miss Yuna was furious. She could pinpoint what mostly happened.The whole thing was just jealousy between students, no harm done.But Zane’s moth
“Who’s the president here?!”Harvey glared coldly at Zane’s vixen of a mother. He had seen too many women of her ilk, and could not be bothered by her kind.“I am! Who are you to barge in the school’s meeting room like this?!”The principal stood up and gowered at Harvey, full of discontent.“Have you at least investigated the situation thoroughly before you decided to expel Xynthia?” Harvey York demanded icily.“This situation only concerns the school staff. It has nothing to do with you!”The principal barked back disdainfully.‘Where did this young man come from? How dare he question me? What a joke!’“I’m a relative of hers. Of course it has something to do with me if she’s going to be expelled.”“Whoever slanders her in front of me will perish.”Harvey’s expression was as cold as the arctic. He did not appreciate a mere principal acting so pridefully in front of him.“Kid!”At this moment, Zane’s father stood. His body stank of seafood.He threw Harvey a contemptuous
Of course, the headmaster didn’t know who Harvey York was.But he knew full well that not only did Zane Shaw make significant donations to the school. He was also closely acquainted with the chairman of the school.Plus, the chairman was from the Surrey family, so the conclusion to how this matter would be settled was set early on. It would be impossible to change it.At that moment, the headmaster spoke up coldly, “I don’t care who you are, but today’s result won’t be changed in any way.“Xynthia Zimmer is expelled out of our school, and regarding the issue of you trespassing the school, I have the power to seek legal responsibility from you!“And you shall settle the financial problem yourself with Zane Shaw.”Harvey’s face turned cold as he scanned through the faces of other members of the school’s board of directors. “So, do you all here think the same way as he does?”“You punk, do you really think you can change our decision by trespassing our meeting room here?”“You sho
