The three lines of text slowly appeared, then gradually disappeared in front of the students.
Immediately after, a scene of extremely luxurious surroundings unfolded, as if in a super-rich mansion. The genuine leather sofas were unbelievably large, and everyone sitting on them was dressed impeccably in unique high fashion.
Each face was mosaic-ed, and even the voices were modulated.
"Mr. James, this is Miss. ThankGod, who achieved an S+ in the recent exam. However, she is proud and arrogant. As soon as she heard about the 1 million entry fee, she seemed to feel her noble soul was offended and tore up the application form."
"I know you feel it's unfair. The big conglomerates, the major families still control the entire country. Their descendants are still in control, while some commoners have to struggle within the confines of the rules set by these people."
"Exactly. How much effort did our parents and grandparents put in for the life we have today
This was her true purpose.Tricia took it over; the flyer was very concise.The background was Heloise's painting of the "Pyramid", with a sentence written on it—【Where your peak lies, is not for others to decide, you must say it yourself!】"So edgy!"Fred slapped the flyer onto the conference table, "I don't believe anyone will go, those who do are going against us, the Talent Society! They're asking for trouble!""Some people will go."Tricia looked down at the flyer in her hand, "This 'Pyramid' painting is too well done, it's desperate yet passionate, many people will be moved by it, especially those well-performing but suppressed civilians by our Talent Society."Those people would rebound even harder.Heloise wasn't just a simple radical, from joining the Talent Society in vain to wanting to establish the Peak Summit, she had been building up step by step.She seized every opportunity, just waiting for
Sometimes Abel wonders if Heloise knows about his family's financial difficulties, so she keeps finding ways to give him money.Last time, when his father needed surgery, he was struggling to gather enough money for the operation because he was busy helping someone with fake IDs. It was so coincidental that Heloise asked him for a favor, and the money she gave him happened to cover the surgery costs.This time, will the money in his bank account be just enough for his father's post-operative care?In addition to admiration, Abel now feels gratitude towards Heloise.He will definitely do his best to assist Heloise in whatever she needs, following her wherever she goes!Unaware of Abel's thoughts, Heloise walks outside the classroom while making a phone call to Reginald.The phone rings until the last second before he picks up.With a smile in his magnetic voice, Reginald says, "I knew you were going to call me because you missed me."
"You certainly don't need to openly encourage anyone; you just need to seize everyone's weaknesses." Heloise smiled and said, "Just like on the day of the law school exam, you deliberately made a scene to disrupt my exam, to drive me out of law school, and deliberately showed up in front of your group of fan girls to try and pull me into the Talent Society."She knew that by saying this, those fan girls would constantly cause trouble during the exam, preventing her, Heloise, from being able to focus properly.Upon hearing this, Tricia frowned. "Spicy ThankGod, don't try to guess what others are thinking with your own thoughts. I didn't think like that at all.""Hush..." Heloise raised her index finger to her lips, the corners of her lips hooked up, and she politely said, "Miss Taylor, could you please keep quiet while I'm speaking.""...” Tricia stood there, her face alternating between pale and red."Later, I got an S+ and slapped your face.
She was in a lot of pain, but she still smiled as she handed macarons to the girl. The girl only extended her hand to take them. She didn't even get a good look at the girl's face, only noticing the bracelet on her wrist.Later, when Brady stepped down, the incident caused a big uproar, and her friends all urged her to look at this hot topic.She glanced at it, not surprised by a congressman's affairs, but she was surprised by the bracelet on Heloise's wrist.The mysterious woman from the hot springs was finally found by her.Heloise looked very innocent, but what use was innocence alone? How could Reginald like someone else when she loved him the most?If only Heloise could disappear from this world.She thought so, and then inadvertently revealed to Ryan that Heloise was the woman Reginald brought back. Sure enough, Ryan immediately sent someone to keep an eye on her.Heloise seemed to have a connection with the Brook family, and sh
The soft tape measure was placed around her waist. Heloise lowered her gaze, wanting to see if she had really gained weight recently, but she was pulled into his arms before she could.It didn't take three seconds for him to start. He circled her waist with his hands, going left and right, front and back, taking liberties in a very legitimate manner. Finally, he furrowed his brows and said with a serious expression, "You're too thin. I can wrap my hands around your waist."It was as if he was telling her, "I'm not messing around. I'm legitimately measuring your size."His angle of taking advantage was too sharp, and Heloise couldn't find fault with him. She could only ask, "Is it done?""Almost," replied Reginald regretfully as he gave her waist another squeeze. Then he tossed the soft tape measure aside, took her hand, and walked out to inform Ben of the measurements.Ben noted them down one by one.Reginald looked at Heloise and asked, "Do
"It won't affect my position," the light fell on his sharply defined face, casting shadows on one side of his handsome nose, making him look particularly ruthless. "But what I want is a woman who can be with me, not a woman who is hunted down every day.""Then I can leave," Heloise blurted out.As soon as the words left her mouth, Reginald's eyes turned even more intense, a surge of darkness passing through them.For a while, he smirked coldly, "Do you think that's possible?"How could he possibly let her go?So, there was only one path he left for her: to give up the Summit Conference and obediently become the canary of Hyacinth Garden.Heloise sat there, her breath unsteady.She knew very well that if Reginald didn't agree, he had too many means to prevent the Summit Conference from happening."End the Summit Conference, and I'll give you anything you want," Reginald finally revealed his true purpose tonight, his voice low an
Under Reginald's urging, Heloise had no choice but to climb onto his back. She wasn't heavy, and Reginald effortlessly lifted her up, walking forward leisurely. She had never seen everything from this angle before.The night wind was slightly cold, and the road was dimly lit. It felt like stretching into an unimaginable third dimension. What exactly was in that space, no one could say.His back was incredibly solid, as if she could just lie on it and not have to think or worry about anything.From childhood to adulthood, she had learned to rely on herself. For twenty-one years, it was the first time someone told her that he was her greatest asset.Although she wouldn't indulge in such words, she couldn't help but feel moved by them.Heloise held onto his neck, glancing at his ear. His ear was cold and hard in shape, but the base of it was particularly soft. She couldn't help but reach out and touch it."Why are you touching my ear?" Reginald
"Think about it, how could those heirs of the financial tycoons let us commoners rise up?" Agatha said coldly, "I was naive, I'm leaving."Agatha felt hopeless and stood up to leave.Seeing this, Heloise couldn't help but chuckle, "If you've pinned all your hopes on the Peak Summit Conference, why give up now?"Hearing this, Agatha turned back, her beautiful eyes looking at her, "Yes, before I came here, I pinned all my hopes on the Peak Summit Conference. I thought you were different, someone who could accomplish great things. But when I arrived here, the Peak Summit Conference didn't even have a venue, and I don't even know if the sponsors are real or not. We couldn't even get the school's approval...""Whether I can get the university's approval is my business, what does it have to do with you? All you need to do is provide me with competitions, win awards, and climb higher and higher," Heloise interrupted in an indifferent tone."Do you have an
"......" Heloise gave him a speechless look. Distracted for a moment, her character on the screen was shot in the head by Reginald, dying a heroic death.Reginald had aimed for this outcome. He turned to look at her, his mischievous gaze wandering up and down. "Strip."Today, he had suddenly proposed a game where for every round lost, she had to remove an article of clothing, with a one-hour time limit.Heloise didn't want to play, but he had persistently pestered her, not allowing her to do anything else until they played for an hour and only then would he let her go to the study to do her own work."......" Heloise straightforwardly took off her shoes, leaving her feet bare on the carpet.This wasn’t the effect he wanted.Reginald glanced at her small, fair feet and reached out to adjust the air conditioning to a higher temperature.The next round began.Heloise focused on the screen, maneuvering the controller with pre
"Suspect what?"Reginald wiped his hands with a hot towel, seeming to ask casually, as if he didn't care."With her abilities, it would be easier for her to make a mark in other circles. Yet she chose to endure hardships in the Legal Affairs Committee, where the network is already established. She’s been there for two months, and although she rose quickly, she's still just an assistant," Benjamin said."On one hand, she's willing to endure these hardships, and on the other hand, she's able to cultivate people under her into prominent figures in various fields in a short period. Do you think she has a grand ambition?"Those in high positions naturally have their sensitivities.Even though he admired Heloise, Benjamin couldn't help but think more deeply.Such a perceptive girl wouldn't do meaningless things; she must have her own calculations. She propels these people to become figures in various fields, and with more experience, they co
Someone passed by and first looked at her, screaming, with eyes that suggested she was crazy. Then, upon seeing the snake, they quickly fled.Why!Why couldn't she get close to Reginald? Why wasn't she the one to receive Reginald's special attention?She couldn't accept this outcome! She couldn't!She sat on the ground, tears quickly welling up, streaming down her face, overwhelmed with despair.…Ever since she had that candid conversation with Reginald on the football field, Heloise had become increasingly focused on her work in the Legal Affairs Committee.Heloise tackled each task with enthusiasm, consistently completing them with excellence. During this time, some colleagues tried to sabotage her, but she cleverly deflected their attempts. Similarly, higher-ups tested her abilities, but she passed each challenge with flying colors.Soon enough, everyone in the Legal Affairs Committee knew of her. Her path to promoti
Just as she finished typing, Heloise was suddenly embraced from behind by a pair of strong arms. Reginald leaned in from behind, his thin lips touching her ear, tracing along the contours of her earlobe, before suddenly taking it into his mouth and lightly licking it with the tip of his tongue.Heloise was tingling all over from his actions, wanting to break free but held tightly by him.Reginald's kisses quickly trailed over her neck and face, finally locking onto her lips with a strong possessiveness, probing deep, intimate, and ambiguous.He pressed his forehead against hers and hoarsely said, "Let me think."Heloise looked at him somewhat puzzled. What did he mean by letting him think? What was he thinking about?Perhaps because he had just showered, his eyes appeared unusually deep and moist under the light.It reminded her of the time at BlueWolf Mountain when a dolphin, accidentally washed ashore by the sea, lay there barely breathing
His voice carried a bewildering power, like a subtle electric current piercing through one's eardrums and directly into the heart.Heloise sat there, captivated by his voice, intimidated by his gaze, her mind momentarily blank.He said he would ensure all her affairs were smooth and worry-free for life. What a touching statement.Growing up, she had never received such a weighty promise.Heloise admitted to herself that she had been captivated. A hot wind passed before her eyes as she stared fixedly at Reginald in front of her.Behind him, the twilight light burst forth with vivid colors, suddenly breaking through."What, speechless from being moved?" Reginald looked at her, chuckling softly.Heloise looked at him. If she followed his temperament, she should express gratitude for being moved, or at least say thank you.But suddenly, she felt that continuing this way was not right."Thank you, Reginald," Heloise looked at
Reginald stood up from the ground, delivering heartless words.Tricia sat on the ground, her heart wrenched by his words.He couldn't produce any evidence to prove that she intentionally incited those people to target Heloise. Yet, despite this, he almost killed her for Heloise. She had risked her life for him!"Brother, has she ever saved you?" Tears streamed down her face as she asked softly.Reginald turned, buttoning his cuff and reaching for the watch on the table. His movement paused at her words before he put on the watch."How much has she sacrificed for you? Why is she the only one for you?" Tricia questioned as she watched his back.The only one for you.Reginald had never thought of those four words. To him, he was simply interested in Heloise. Every aspect of her fit his taste.Her presence filled the loneliness he had endured for over a decade. Was she really the only one for him?If it were someone else...
"Brother, wait for me." Tricia glanced at Heloise and softly called out, catching up to Reginald and brushing his arm with her finger.Reginald glanced at her sideways but didn't stop, continuing forward. Tricia walked alongside him.Heloise stood still, quietly watching the backs of the two, feeling a faint sense of strangeness pass through her heart. Her expression remained calm, showing little emotion.Is this going to be alright? It really caught her off guard.She thought that Tricia chasing after Reginald would take as long as rebuilding the slums.Once Reginald left, the guards followed suit, leaving the office to them.Heloise withdrew her gaze, carrying the documents into the office and sitting at her desk, ready to work. She tried to start her computer, but it showed a black screen.Heloise was annoyed. She clicked the mouse a couple of times, and large blocky characters began to flash on the screen."Miss me?"
"No."Reginald held her tightly.Heloise gritted her teeth and shrunk her body, slipping out from his arms.Reginald attempted to catch her, but failed. Irritated, he reached for her, pulling her towards him and kissing her forcefully. "If you don't want to sleep, then don't sleep. Let's continue playing."Heloise still wanted to break free, but Reginald pulled her back onto the bed and started fooling around with her.…In the office, colleagues remembered her heroic act of catching snakes and, understandingly, ceased their antagonism. This made Heloise's internship path particularly smooth.Her documents were impeccable, and there wasn't a single mistake in the legal texts she handled, which left her superiors very satisfied."This document contains the latest perfected laws for the slums. Once you've organized and verified it, we can make it public."The leader handed her a document.Heloise accepted it,
“Don't worry, I won't engage in such petty behaviors.”Another person expressed their stance to Heloise.“You saved us today. I'll keep an eye out for you from now on, making sure Adam and the others don't dare to act out again,” said several people around Heloise.“…”What's going on with these people? Weren't they trying to curry favor with her? How did they suddenly change sides in such a short time?Tricia stood there, her expression grim.Heloise sat calmly, raising her eyes to Tricia and giving a nonchalant “Oh.”Everyone followed her gaze to Tricia, and there was a moment of stiffness. This incident was somewhat related to Tricia, but she hadn't instructed them to go after Heloise.The atmosphere felt strangely tense.Soon, someone laughed nervously. “Tricia, you're back! You were lucky you weren't here earlier. Suddenly, the office was filled with snake
