Rising from the Ashes The Heiress They Tried to Erase Novel

Chapter 358: Glaring at Marisa, who was barely containing her laughter, Maxwell scoffed, "Did you set me up or what?" "Well, if you practiced instead of showing off, you wouldn't lose so badly!" "Quit copying me! Let's go another round!" Maxwell snapped back, his competitive side kicking in. Whoever designed this game was definitely a genius. Maxwell barely noticed how quickly time was slipping away. Finally, Maxwell surrendered. "I give up! My pride can't handle another blow.

So, what was the important thing you wanted to tell me?" Marisa set her headphones aside, tossed the empty lollipop stick into the trash, and blinked as if preparing for a grand announcement. "Listen up, something huge went down at school today!" Maxwell immediately straightened up. Marisa almost never brought up school, especially anything exciting! Always a sucker for gossip, he leaned in eagerly. "Seriously? What happened?" Then, narrowing his eyes, he added suspiciously, "Wait, don't tell me you got into another fight with some spoiled rich guy?" Marisa almost groaned out loud.

When was Maxwell going to stop assuming the worst? Could he at least try to be a little more sensible? Rolling her eyes, Marisa let his comment slide. "No fights this time," she said coolly. "I actually saw a guy being punished outside Class One. Turns out Melanie had been bullying him, but then his sister showed up. And guess what happened next?" She arched a brow, deliberately leaving him hanging. Maxwell, unimpressed, waved a hand. "It's Wront's Cooper family we're talking about.

Bet they just expelled the guy to avoid rumors." "Wrong, genius!" Marisa said, grinning as she ripped open another lollipop wrapper. : gⲁⲛν․ⅽ Before she could enjoy it, Maxwell swooped in and snatched the candy right from her hand. "Kids shouldn't drown themselves in sugar. Now, quit stalling and spill the story!" Maxwell said, pretending to get up and walk away while crunching the lollipop triumphantly. "Tsk, unbelievable. Stealing my lollipop? Fine, send me ten thousand and I'll spill everything," Marisa replied, pretending to be offended. Maxwell stared at her, completely lost for words.

It didn't take long before Marisa's phone buzzed with a notification. Maxwell had actually transferred ten thousand without blinking. She let out a small laugh, knowing full well that when it came to juicy gossip, her brother had zero self-control. Grinning, Marisa finally gave in. "So, the guy's sister showed up, and Melanie's dad immediately folded. He couldn't stop apologizing, practically bowing at their feet. Then, right in front of the whole school, every parent and student who bullied the guy had to stand up and apologize publicly. Can you believe it?

These are parents from the elite circles too! Especially Hurst, everyone says he practically owns this town. Isn't that crazy?" Maxwell's interest piqued even further. "Wait, seriously? Who's that guy's sister? She sounds like a really impressive person. You're not making this up, are you?" In truth, even Maxwell knew that Hurst's position within the Cooper Group was only second to Kolton himself, and that made Hurst someone even he wouldn't dare cross easily. Marisa narrowed her eyes mischievously, wiggling her phone at him. "Another ten grand and I'll show you the proof. I took photos!" . .
