Chapter 341

Elara looked at Rosalie, fully aware of the scheme she was plotting. Their eyes met, and the air between them crackled with tension, as if sparks were about to ignite.Back in the Fisher family, Rosalie had never been kind to Elara. In the past, Elara had deliberately avoided her for the sake of family harmony. Yet even now, Rosalie was still targeting her.A soft chuckle escaped Elara's throat. Prejudice was like an insurmountable mountain in people's hearts, and the wealthier they were, the more they feared outsiders.Rosalie, like Harvey, looked down on her from the bottom of her heart. From the moment Elara married into the Fisher family, Rosalie had been waiting for the day she would be kicked out."Elara, you'd better hurry and talk to the school administration. If you're too late and the program list is finalized, you won't be able to add Merida's name." Rosalie's lips curled into a smile as she said this, but it didn't reach her eyes.Suddenly, as if remembering something,

Elara, standing on the stage, was also stunned. Meanwhile, Rosalie's eyes widened in shock. She raised a trembling hand to touch her face.When she felt the swelling on her cheek, it was as if thousands of needles, finer than hair, were piercing her skin, threatening to tear it apart.Only then did Rosalie realize—she had been slapped!"Why did you hit me?" Rosalie screamed.Priscilla smiled, the corners of her eyes lifting as her long lashes fluttered like the wings of a butterfly about to take flight."Not only will I hit you, but I'll also drill a hole in your head to clear out the sewage coming out of your mouth!"Priscilla stood at nearly 5'8", and with her six-inch-tall heels, Rosalie looked like a dwarf next to her.She raised her hand, pointing at Rosalie's head. But fearing another slap, Rosalie quickly covered her head with her hands."Don't think that just because you don't say it outright, no one knows what filthy thoughts are in your head! Throwing shade is easy, b

When Rosalie first saw Priscilla, the only word that came to mind was "stunning". The woman before her was tall and elegant, with a petite, exquisitely sculpted face and thick, lustrous hair. Few people could leave such a striking impression with just their appearance."I don't care which student's parent you are. If you dare hit a teacher, I'll report you to the school administration!" Darcie snapped coldly.The surname "Price" wasn't common, and she couldn't recall teaching any student with that name.Her eyes darted between Priscilla and Elara's faces. Honestly, if Priscilla didn't look so young, Darcie might have actually believed she was Elara's mother.Rosalie, with her cheeks still swollen, forced a flattering smile at Priscilla. She looked like a squirrel with its cheeks stuffed full of nuts."Ms. Price, I really didn't mean it that way…"Seeing the cold glint in Priscilla's sharp eyes, Rosalie shivered and immediately slapped her own face."It's my fault! I spoke withou

Merida clutched Elara's hand with both of her small fists, her voice filled with indignation. "I want you to write an apology letter to Mommy!""Dream on!" Rosalie spat out, her eyes sharp and venomous.Merida wasn't intimidated. Instead, she grew even more determined. "I want you to read the apology letter out loud in front of everyone at the talent show!"Rosalie's laughter shook her entire chest.She took a deep breath, suppressing the rage bubbling inside her, and spoke to Merida in a condescending, childlike tone. "Sure! If you want me to read an apology letter on stage in front of everyone, you'll have to win first place at the talent show!"Only if you're on stage accepting an award will you have the right to call me up, won't you?"Anger and mockery intertwined, making Rosalie's head feel hot one moment and cold the next. Being slapped by Priscilla in public was something Rosalie could grudgingly accept as the price of crossing someone so powerful.But being forced to wr

Elara gestured for Priscilla to follow her, and the two sat down in a quiet corner of the auditorium. Meanwhile, Rosalie, who was clutching her swollen, burning cheek, kept her eyes fixed on Elara and Priscilla.Darcie was trembling as she asked, "Is that Ms. Price someone very powerful?"Rosalie sneered. "She could crush you like an ant without breaking a sweat!""Crap!" Darcie gasped, her pupils trembling.The thought of having offended Priscilla made her legs shake uncontrollably. She grabbed Rosalie's arm in fear, and her body went limp like a noodle."Ms. Fisher, could you… Could you put in a good word for me with Ms. Price? Someone like me doesn't even know her. I didn't mean to offend her!"Rosalie pushed Darcie's hand away in disgust, her lips curling as she hissed through clenched teeth, "I can't even save myself right now! What makes you think I can help you?"Seeing Darcie's panicked state, Rosalie's eyes filled with disdain. People like Darcie were nothing but fragil

Elara's tone was firm. "You must be regretting burning bridges with me so soon.""Elara! You tampered with the data you gave me!" Priscilla's voice turned icy, her gaze sharp and intimidating.A chilling aura radiated from her, but Elara, who was sitting beside her, didn't even glance her way.Instead, she scoffed. "Why would I tamper with anything? The fact of the matter is your team isn't skilled enough."Ms. Price, you burned the bridge, and now you've lost 100 million dollars, haven't you?"Priscilla crossed her arms. Her meticulously manicured nails were painted a soft, elegant pink. She frowned slightly upon hearing Elara's words.Had Elara already calculated that without her, Price Nation's Quantum Tech would lose over 100 million dollars? And she even knew that when Quantum Tech suffered such a loss, Priscilla would come looking for her.The thought sent a shiver down Priscilla's spine. She then felt a pang of unease when she recalled how Elara hadn't shown any surprise

Chapter 347

Priscilla's eyes were ice-cold. Back then, she had paid Elara 20 million dollars to kick her out of the game. Now she wanted her back, but Elara was asking for two billion dollars right off the bat.And she knew damn well that Elara wanted more than just two billion dollars. Priscilla let out a low chuckle. She had been in the business long enough to deal with people trying to squeeze her dry. Yet, standing in front of Elara, she remained completely in control. "You have no idea how the market works, Ms. Jones," Priscilla said smoothly. "I can offer you 70% of the profits, but as for funding—well, that has to go through the board for approval." Elara didn't even hesitate when she retorted. "Unless you hand over the entire project to me, I'm not interested." Priscilla let out a sharp scoff as she said, "You're dreaming." No one had ever dared to snatch a major deal straight from her hands. But Elara remained as composed as ever, her voice soft, almost amused. "Ms. Price, I

"Lesley!"Merida's eyes lit up the moment she spotted Lesley. She bounced excitedly and ran straight toward her. Lesley's mind was entirely on Elara. She exhaled slowly, warmth lingering in her breath."Lesley, I missed you so much!" Merida's sweet voice rang out as Lesley crouched down. Noticing Merida still in her performance outfit, Lesley immediately took off her coat and wrapped it around her. "You look so good," Lesley said, gently smoothing Merida's slightly messy hair. Just then, Elara walked up to Lesley. "You're back." Last week, Lesley had left in a hurry for something urgent. Before she left, she had only promised she wouldn't be gone for long. Elara hadn't pressed for details. She and Merida had simply waited for her return. She hadn't expected Lesley to come straight to the school as soon as she returned to Capitol. Just as Priscilla was one step away from Lesley, she spoke. "You've worked hard this time."Lesley paused for a moment. Her sharp, chi

Chapter 349

"You were taken back by the Jones family, which made it impossible for Priscilla to adopt you or become your guardian legally. Later, when she found out you got married... She lost all interest in you." Elara hadn't expected something like this to be happening behind the scenes abroad."Who was stopping Priscilla from adopting me?" she asked. Lesley shook her head. "To this day, even she hasn't figured it out." There was a rare seriousness in Lesley's usually clear gaze. "I've always felt like whoever it was, they were protecting you." Elara thought so, too. "Did you ever tell Priscilla about my past?" Lesley shook her head again, this time without hesitation. "She's tried to probe and has asked me about you in roundabout ways, but I never told her a thing. I made sure she believed that I cut ties with you completely when I moved to Melcina." Elara thought for a moment. "Priscilla must have had her eye on me long before that. She must have done her own digging. She p

Chapter 350

Harvey grabbed Lesley's arm, his fingers clamping around her slender frame. Immediately, a flicker of disdain flashed through his eyes. Lesley was all skin and bones. Why was Lesley touching Elara?"Harvey! What the hell are you doing?" Elara snapped, her voice sharp with anger. She tried to pry his hand off Lesley's arm. "Let go of Lesley!" Harvey's fury only burned hotter when he saw Elara standing in front of Lesley protectively. He let out a scornful scoff and yanked his hand away, but his voice was laced with irritation as he spat, "Why are you always hanging around weaklings like them? "This person's just like that soft-ass, whiny Theodore. Always clinging to you, always needing you to protect them!" He was pissed. Elara rolled her eyes. "Because I like people like them!" Harvey's eyes widened in disbelief. Was he not Elara's cup of tea?To him, Theodore and Lesley were practically the same—both looked too weak to stand on their own. He could take them down
