Chapter 46 Phony After hearing her explanation, Milly quickly deduced the situation.
It appeared that Jordan and George had witnessed Melanie apologising to her, which led them to spare the Spencers.
"You don't have to thank me. This was Jordan's gratitude to your parents for their kindness,ision. I didn't do anything, but I still want to express my Milly stated.
Melanie interpreted it as a rejection and felt a bit disheartened. She asked, "Milly, don't you want to visit my house? Do you think I'm being kind to you for benefits? That's not the case. I genuinely like you and want to be friends with you." Perhaps overwhelmed with emotion, her voice quivered toward the end, her eyes reddened, and she was on the verge of tears.
Milly was surprised that her simple words would make Melanie overthink the situation. She quickly clarified. "I do want to visit, but with the exam approaching, I need to focus on studying. How about this? After the exam. I'll cover for dinner, alright?" Having lived two lifetimes, she could tell sincerity from insincerity.
Melanie was clearly pouring her heart out. Milly couldn't disregard her sincerity.
She breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Milly's response and instantly bounced back. She said, "I know you're the best. I'll inform my parents too." "Okay." As long as Melanie didn't cry in front of her, everything was fine.
But "In the future, stop callingboss. It sounds odd. We are classmates; just addressby my name," Milly suggested.
Already burdened with William, adding another person calling her boss made it worse. It gave the impression of her being a gangster who led a few lackeys.
William finally spoke up. He was unwilling to be overlooked as he flattered, "That's right, boss is mine alone. My position is secure, and you can't take it!" "You shut...! Before Milly could finish, Melanie interjected excitedly. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
"Boss, you can't favour boys over girls! Why can he call you that, but I can't? I won't accept this!" Milly was speechless..
William smirked, relishing the . He added, “Because I am cute and charming, she likes me!" Iv "Boss! I want to protest! Tellthe truth; do you like him but not me?" Chapter 46 Phony "Don't mind her, she's just envious." "Boss!" "Boss!" Milly felt overwhelmed, as if her brain had been tossed into a beehive, causing a painful buzz and throbbing sensation. Now, she grasped why ancient emperors, despite their many beautiful concubines, still wore troubled expressions.
Dealing with such constant contention every day was a challenge, and she considered herself fortunate if it didn't push her to the brink of madness.
Unable to tolerate it any longer, she raised her hand to silence them. She said, "Stop it! You can callwhatever you want, but I have one rule- no more words! "Otherwise, I will kick him out!" The room fell silent.
But the peace lasted only five minutes; it was shattered when Anthony escorted Stephanie as she walked past Class A's door.
Stephanie was particularly happy when she saw Milly, seemingly forgetting about the incident of almost apologising on stage yesterday.
Excitedly, she said, "Milly, you're here at school so early!" Milly responded with a nonchalant grunt, ignoring her.
But in Stephanie's eyes, this indifference seemed like guilt, prompting her to continue. "Where were you last night? We waited for you at hand worried sick when you didn't return. Everyone was concerned.
"If you stayed overnight at someone else's house, you should at least inform us. You may not be aware of this, but our family is very strict. If you casually spend the night outside, people will gossip." She was on the verge of directly mentioning that Milly has no self-respect right on her face.
Hearing this, Melanie, William, and Anthony furrowed their brows.
Unable to contain her anger, Melanie slammed the book in her hand on the table with a loud thud. The loud noise startled Stephanie.
"Stephanie, what are you trying to say? Who are you trying to impress with your cryptic remarks? If you have the courage, speak clearly and stop beating around the bush, Aren't you tired of it?" Stephanie had been focused on Milly and hadn't even noticed Melanie sitting beside her.
She was momentarily surprised by her fierce retort. She asked, "Melanie? How did you end up in Class A?" Melanie crossed her arms, exuding an air of superiority befitting the Spencers. She asked, "I ranked in the top twenty in the last exam; why wouldn't I be in Class A?" Upon hearing this, Stephanie suddenly recalled that Melanie indeed had excellent grades, and she always ranked at the top..
12:40 Sun, Jun Chapter 46 Phony But what did she mean earlier? Why is Melanie now siding with Milly and defending her? Could it be that Milly has influence even her? No, I wouldn't allow it! $5 Pearls Concealing the jealousy in her eyes, she forced a simile and tried to appear innocent. She asked, "Melanie, aren't we best friends?
Melanie rolled her eyes and was disgusted. She retorted, “Best friends? Sparethose words, el must have been blind before, thinking you were kind and innocent.
Now I realise how foolish I was back then. "I have to say, you've got quite thick skin. Aren't you afraid I haven't forgotten about the aurecording of your snide remarks under the national flag yesterday? Despite all that, do you still have the nerve to calla good friend? If you don't find that disgusting, I don't know what does!" Stephanie's face paled as she listened to her remarks.
The classmates, who were watching the unfold, began to gossip.
That's 's right, I was wondering why Melanie suddenly transferred to Class A. It turns out that Stephanie had stabbed her back." "Didn't Melanie cause a scene in public yesterday? How could you forget?" "Yeah, I didn't expect her to be so bold, but I really couldn't tell the true color of Stephanic. I thought she was kind and innocent; I didn't expect her to be so cunning Listening to the discussions around her, Stephanie's face contorted in anger.
Recalling the embarrassing incident in public yesterday, she gritted her teeth in frustration.
But with so many people around now, she couldn't lose her temper. She bit her tongue hard to calm herself down, then lowered her eyes, her e eye N sockets slightly red. “Melanie, I know you're not the kind of domineering person. Could it be that you saw that Milly had chere and felt that my status no longer matched up with your family? What a clever way to shift the blame! Indeed, she was a master manipulator, defining Stephanie as someone who was vain and sycophantic with just one sentence.
Melanie couldn't fail to see through it, but she still held her head high with the arrogance of someone in a m superior position. That's right! Your status as an foster daughter indeed doesn't match up to the status of the heiress of the Spencer Group. So what? Have you any complaints? If you do, keep them to yourself." ☐ 2 X
