"School?" Rose was shocked.Anthony, who had been chatting with Henry, was also taken aback."Yes. She didn't want to take lessons at home, so I let her go," Henry explained.Rose's face turned pale, while the private tutors exchanged awkward glances."Um, Mr. Hartford Senior, we've finished our breakfast. We should go prepare the teaching materials for the lessons," one of the tutors said."Of course. If you need anything, just ask the maids," Henry replied kindly.Then, the tutors, including Anthony, got up and left the dining room."Rose, Summer probably didn't want to worry you. She has her reasons for doing this," Henry said gently."I know. It's just… I don't understand why she didn't tell me…" Rose fell silent, her lips pressed in a thin line.Damn it! Why on earth would Summer choose to go to school instead of attending private lessons at home in the middle of all this turmoil? Was Summer out of her mind? If she wasn't going to stay home for lessons, then what was the

However, Summer was no longer the person she once was.…Summer was wearing a custom-made school uniform for elite schools, complete with a shining school badge.The horrible makeup Rose always smeared on her face was gone. Her long hair was draped across her shoulders in soft waves, and she only wore a pearl hair clip near her left ear.Summer had always had good looks, and she was stunning even without makeup. In the past, her original radiance was simply shrouded by her meekness, along with the terrible makeup and messy hair.The car pulled up in front of the academic building. Getting out of the car, Robin respectfully opened the car door for Summer.As soon as Summer got out of the car, the passersby seemed to have frozen in time. They all turned their attention to Summer."Ms. Hartford, I'm always available. If you need any help, feel free to call me." Robin handed Summer her school bag."Okay." Smiling, Summer nodded. "Thank you, Mr. Cohen."Robin nodded a little. Then,

Annie was stunned for a moment. After all, Summer had always been a useless heir. She had never dared to speak a whole sentence to Annie and the young ladies, let alone look them in the eye when she talked.Annie wondered what was wrong with Summer today.Now that the person who had always been beneath her was suddenly talking to her like that, Annie felt like it was a threat to her pride.Walking up to Summer, she answered in an arrogant tone, "Yes. I was the one who did it. I was just putting trash where it belongs. What's wrong with that?"Summer looked at Annie. There wasn't even a hint of fear in her eyes.Meanwhile, Annie felt a little intimidated by Summer's gaze."What are you looking at?" she asked in an unusually loud voice, which was evidence of her guilt.Then, she suddenly screamed at Summer and reached up to grab the latter's hair.However, before Annie could touch Summer, someone had already grabbed her hair instead.After that, a shocking scene played out in fr
The Many Faces of a Vengeful Heiress Chapter 22
There were people both inside and outside the classroom, but it was completely silent.Then, Summer took out her phone and started a timer.Annie's face was covered in rotten fruit peels and juice. She had never smelled so bad before, and she kept having the urge to throw up. However, she couldn't even be bothered to clean herself up. Turning around, she looked at the others. "What are you standing around for? I didn't do this on my own!"The others didn't say a word.Summer pretended she never saw their conflict. Taking out a textbook from her bag, she began flipping through it expressionlessly.In just a few minutes, the whole world seemed to have turned upside down. The person who was usually the victim was sitting at the side with a cold and emotionless demeanor. Meanwhile, the bullies were surrounded by trash as they hurled insults at each other.Someone commented, "Wow! Summer's retaliation really is something!""She's so cool!" someone else agreed.A student said, "I'v

"Sorry, sir. I really wasn't being respectful, was I?" Summer tapped the desk lightly with her slender fingers. "It's a very serious offense. Perhaps you should… call my parents."As soon as Summer said that, Ivan froze.Even students in the elite schools weren't so arrogant that they would actually tell their teachers to call their parents."There's not much going on at home these days, and my elders should be free to come over. Shall I make the call for you?" Summer asked.Ivan's face instantly turned pale.Getting the elders of the Hartford family here would be the death of him. As far as he knew, Summer never told her family about getting bullied at school. If her family came over right now, the cat would be let out of the bag."It's not that serious," Ivan said, trying to gloss it over."Oh." Summer raised an eyebrow. "Then, we'll leave it for when you feel it's serious enough, Mr. Sutton."Ivan's face turned ashen.In the final three minutes, the rich young ladies did ev

News of Summer's change in behavior quickly spread throughout the school. Everywhere she went, gazes would follow her.She pretended she didn't notice it.When she arrived at the entrance of the teacher's office, she heard the teachers talking about her as well. "This is too much! How could she shove a classmate's head into a pile of trash? That's inhumane! These rich kids would do the worst of things just because they come from powerful backgrounds!"Summer scoffed.She had simply shoved Annie's head into the pile of trash Annie had created. This was nothing compared to the bullying Annie had done to her. But these teachers were feeling bad for the students now?Summer lifted her hand and knocked on the door.The voices in the teacher's office fell silent.It was slightly disappointing, but because of her connection to Hartford Group, those people would never dare express their hatred toward her. At the very least, this was the situation right now.Her simple retaliation t
The Many Faces of a Vengeful Heiress Chapter 25
Normally, in a school where they had so many students coming from rich, prominent families, the teachers would rarely treat their students like this. Yet, why were they treating Summer like that?It was because they knew that Summer was meek and docile. She would not tell her parents about what happened at school.These teachers were not afraid of the students. Instead, they were wary of the rich, prominent families that these students belonged to."Did I say something wrong, Mr. Sutton?" Summer looked Ivan straight in the eye."Are you saying that all of Annie's misdeeds, such as dumping trash all over my desk, tearing my textbooks and homework, and forcing me to drink dirty water, are just playful banter? On the other hand, I'm bullying her by making her clean up the mess she made on my desk?""You!" Ivan could not come up with a rebuttal to Summer's question."Do the rest of you share the same opinion as Mr. Sutton, too?" Summer's gaze drifted across the other teachers inside
The Many Faces of a Vengeful Heiress Chapter 26
Ivan's eyes lit up instantly."I almost forgot about that! Summer Hartford is a real birdbrain. She couldn't even answer the simplest questions. I won't let her off for what happened today. Once the exam is over, I'm going to make sure she receives all the punishment she deserves!"…The school had a dormitory. Even though they called it the dormitory, pretty much none of the students lived in the building. Instead, it existed with the purpose of providing rich students with a resting space during their breaks.Most of the dormitory rooms were single rooms that were lavishly decorated, each equipped with its own bathroom, dressing room, and other basic features. They even had better amenities as compared to some of the five-star hotels out there.Annie took a shower and changed into clean clothes. Then, she sat in front of the mirror and sprayed perfume on herself repeatedly.She had washed her body several times, yet she could not seem to get rid of the stench of trash still stu

The call ended there.Saul glanced at the never-ending stream of traffic before he raised a hand and hailed a taxi.On the way, he felt a little unsettled. After some thought, he decided to call Summer.At that moment, Summer was scolding Mason for eating something he shouldn't. "I told you you can't eat these things! What kind of tyrant CEO has a mouth as greedy as yours?"Mason merely sat there obediently and let her lecture him. In truth, he wasn't actually craving those snacks. But Summer wasn't paying him any attention, so…When Summer saw Saul's call, she grabbed all the snacks from the small table and locked them up in her room before she answered it."What is it?" she asked.Saul felt a little comforted when he heard Summer's voice. "It's about your team. You're very capable, and you plan on expanding the company. The team I put together for you isn't bad, but they might not be enough in the long run."Summer nodded. "I've thought about that as well, but I don't have an

To Terrence, Saul was like a thick iron wall that would never let anyone enter. He had a face that was the envy of all and was surrounded by women since he was young. Yet, he hadn't even dated anyone even in his 20s.For a long time, Terrence had even suspected that Saul liked men.Saul looked at Terrence. "That's right. I want to spend my life with her. Terrence, the girl I like is absolutely one of a kind in this world."Terrence shrugged and said nothing.Saul left shortly after that.Terrence stretched and thought to himself that genes weren't always reliable.For instance, Saul's father was a complete playboy who made headlines every other day for his affairs back then. The man even seduced his own sister-in-law and his sister-in-law's younger sister.Yet, when it came to Saul, he was a hopeless romantic.As Terrence thought about it, his phone rang. It was the person he asked to help him look for Summer.Terrence answered and said, "If there's still no news, then there's

Who wouldn't want to ruffle that fluffy hair?"What are you looking at? You're allowed to mess up my hair, but I'm not?" Summer playfully raised a fist at him before getting up and mumbling as she headed next door.Mason sat at the dining table, gently touching the spot where Summer had just patted him. He couldn't hide the smile on his lips.There was no way he wouldn't allow it. In fact, he wanted nothing more than for her to do it more."Wait for me!" Mason quickly got up. He grabbed the milk that Summer hadn't finished and hurried after her.When Summer opened her computer, Saul was already waiting for her online."The internal test results are all within our estimations. The response to the promotional campaign has been great as well. I think that the final results will exceed your expectations," Saul said.Summer looked at the data that Sault sent over and was a bit surprised. She definitely didn't expect such a good response. "Saul, you definitely live up to your reputa

After a moment of hesitation, Summer decided to call Kristen.Kristen hadn't slept well the whole night. When she saw Summer's call, she hesitated for a moment before she picked up."Mom," Summer greeted.Kristen sighed. "Are you calling to ask about Rose?"Summer felt a bit helpless. "So, she really did go to you. I knew no one else would help her.""Summer, I know how much she's hurt you. I guarantee that this is the last time," Kristen said.Summer replied, "I understand. You shouldn't think too much about it. Her mother helped you a lot in the past. I understand it.""I already sent her away. She just boarded the plane. She said she won't be coming back," Kristen said."Let's hope so." Summer didn't really trust Rose's words.If only Rose was willing to live peacefully and stay with Anthony without causing trouble. Then, she could have lived a comfortable life thanks to the Hartford family."Summer…" Kristen seemed to have something she wanted to ask, but she stopped."W

"Janice, I've never been on the same side as Rose. She was kicked out of the Hartford family a long time ago, and I'm not some saint who would help someone trying to harm me. You're barking up the wrong tree," Summer replied coldly.Janice was clenching her teeth. "Summer! Don't be too pleased with yourself. I know you had a hand in this, too. I won't let Rose off, and I definitely won't let you off, either."Summer lowered her gaze and chuckled.Janice got even angrier when she heard that. "What are you laughing at?""Janice, you like Chandler, right?" Summer asked.Jancie did not respond."With things as they are, how do you still not realize what's important? If you don't shift your focus back to your family, your parents will probably have your marriage with Anthony finalized in the next few days," Summer said slowly.Janice froze in place.She had been fully focused on Rose the last few days. With her mind fully occupied by revenge, she didn't have the time to think about

Kristen looked at Rose coldly. "For two days, Janice used all of Power Construction's resources and still couldn't find you. Summer is not that capable.""Summer isn't that capable? Do you know who hacked into her birthday party and swapped my video on the screen? It was Summer! She's a very good hacker!" Rose said through gritted teeth."That's enough! I have no time for your nonsense. So what if my daughter is a hacker? If you just called me over for this, then speak no more. Even if Summer is a monster, she's still my daughter. She's my precious girl!" Kristen said impatiently.Rose had always thought that Kristen didn't like Summer. Even now, she was still trying to drive a wedge between the two of them.The moment Kristen said that Summer was her precious girl, Rose felt like a bucket of cold water had been dumped over her head.She lowered her gaze and let out a bitter laugh. "Aunt Kristen, I always thought that I was your precious girl.""Weren't you? Didn't I treat you we

Summer furrowed her brows. "Just try and harass my mom and see what happens."Rose gritted her teeth and said, "If you don't help me, then that's my only choice. My mom died indirectly because of her. She owes me for that. It's only natural that she should help me."Summer's expression grew colder.She thought of Rose's cruelty. She thought of those who died because of Rose in her past life. She thought of that gardener who had died not long ago.Even if Summer had crawled her way out of hell, killing someone still wasn't something she could do. But she could still use someone else to do it."Let me think about it." Summer lowered her gaze."I don't have that much time to wait!" Rose was frantic."I'll let you know by today," Summer answered."Good! I'll wait until nightfall. If you still haven't arranged anything by then, I'll go to Aunt Kristen!" Rose hung up after that.Summer glanced at the number on the screen and licked her teeth.After that, she quickly managed to trac

Summer picked up the watering can beside her and watered a potted plant in front of her. "Rose, you've changed so many numbers just to call me and curse at me. Are you really that free?""What grudge do you have against me? Why are you doing all of this to me?" Rose asked through gritted teeth.Summer didn't know what to say to that. Shouldn't she be the one asking Rose that?"I don't understand what you're saying. Aren't you just reaping what you sow? Nothing would have happened to you if you weren't scheming things in the first place," Summer said with a cold laugh."Janice is convinced that I worked with you to set her up now! She's sworn she'll make sure I die horribly!" Rose's voice seemed like it was about to break."Wasn't that just your and Anthony's plan? What does it have to do with me?" Summer didn't know if Rose was recording this or not, so she was careful not to expose anything.She continued, "I've looked at the trending topics lately. The two of you planned things

Mason was inside the shower, while Summer stood outside.The sound of rushing water could be heard.No matter how Summer stood, she felt incredibly awkward. Looking at Mason's figure through the frosted glass, his movements seemed slow and strained.Summer felt her heart ache. Couldn't he just endure a little longer? Why did he insist on a shower?After what felt like ages, Mason finally finished his shower.When he walked out wrapped in his towel, Summer's eyes widened for a moment before she turned her head away. "Let me make you something to eat. Come out after you put on your clothes."After that, Summer bolted out of the room.Mason chuckled to himself as she escaped. Yet, the movement tugged at his wound and caused him to hiss.In reality, he could have acted even more helpless. But he was worried he would annoy her if he pushed too much. He didn't want Summer to see him as too much of a burden, either. It was better to take things one step at a time.Meanwhile, Summer o
