The man's deep voice rang in her ears. "Running away? Where are you running to?" "L. Tiffany was very nervous. She could feel his eyes boring into her.
She stammered for a long tbefore finally saying, "I need to go to the washroom...
Richard was caught off guard by that answer. Then, he chuckled and let go of Tiffany obligingly. "Go then.” Tiffany's face was extremely red. Without hesitation, she hurried towards the toilet in the backyard.
However, just as she approached, she bumped into Grelle.
Grelle seemed to have been loitering nearby. Therefore, when she suddenly bumped into Tiffany, she tried to hide in a panic. She didn't even say "Hello" before running away.
"Grelle... Before Tiffany could stop her, the petite figure had disappeared.
Grelle ran madly for a long tbefore stopping. She was so sad that her eyes turned red-rimmed from weeping. She had pretended to be wandering around outside just now and had accidentally seen it. That sight was a huge blow to her.
The only thing the man she adored ever said to her was "Get lost On top of that, no matter how hard she tried, he never looked at her.
So this was the difference between the sky and the earth.
Grelle buried her head in her knees and wept silently.

Im fine.” Worried that the other party would see through her, Grelle stood up and turned around to leave. However, Melody placed hand on the girl's shoulder and smiled gently.
"You like the guest staying next door very much, don't you? "Lettell you. That guest is a big shot with a fortune that can rival a country. His wealth and status are beyond your imagination, Melody smiled again.
"Why are you tellingall these things?" Grelle was a little angry.
"Are you trying to tellthat an ugly duckling likewill never be able to get close to such a man? Are you trying to remindto know my place?" Melody smiled confidently. "No. On the contrary, I'm here to help you. As long as you're willing, I can help you." Of course, it would be a lie to say that Grelle wasn't tempted. She thought for a níoment before rejecting Melody righteously. "No. Although I'm tempted by what you said, I have my pride.
"It's useless to fight for what doesn't belong to me. If it is meant to be mine, I can get it even if I don't do anything.
"Moreover, in television s, those who do bad things will not have a good ending, so please don't getinto trouble Thank you!" With that, Grelle brushed Melody's hand away and ran towards the cotton fields without looking back.
A young girl's thoughts cand went quickly. Likewise, her erotions changed rapidly. Within a few minutes, Grelle's usual smile was restored as she worked in the cotton fields.
She looked innocent and pure, lively and lovable.
The statement Those who do bad things will not have a good ending stung Melody.
Her eyes gradually turned icy. "Idiot, you can't even hold on to och a good opportunity. Serve you right if you are stuck in such a place for the rest of your life!" She gave a scornful snort and left.
On the way back, Melody tried to call Sandra again but there was still no one answering Of course, there was no reply from Sandra. That was because she could not even take care of herself right now.
She had heard about how her deep pit schfailed that night in particular, when she heard that Melody had fallen into it and almost lost her life, Sandra was so angry that she cursed out loud. "She can't even handle such a small matter and almost got herself killed. She's really stupid!" Only God knew how much effort she had put into getting that pit ready. She had to get people to dig secretly so that no one would know, and she had to prevent other people passing by on the mountain from stepping into it by mistake.
In the end, it was all for naught! Sandra was downright furious. However, she still had a backup plan, which was to plant bombs.
The last time. Tiffany managed to avoid the deep pit. This time, it was a bomb. As long as she cwithin range, there was no way for her to escape certain death.
After personally supervising her subordinates in the planting of the bombs, Sandra was finally satisfied.
She then tried to locate a place with strong phone reception so that she could call Melody. As she walked back and forth, she encountered more than a dozen villagers digging for potatoes on the mountain.
Sandra took no notice of them and walked away with disdain.
However, when one of the women saw Sandra, her entire body trembled violently. She rushed up to Sandra, grabbed her sleeve, and shouted at her repeatedly. "It's you, it's you!" When Sandra was grabbed suddenly and her expensive dress becstained with mud, she flew into a rage. "Are you crazy? Let go! As she spoke, she tried to shake off the woman's hands.
However, this woman was surprisingly strong. Her expression was ferocious as she refused to let go. She yelled, "Sandra Olson, take a good look and see who I am!" Sandra was stunned when the other party called out her name. She then took a good look at the woman. She didn't recognize her at first though she looked vaguely familiar.
When she looked closer, Sandra's heart skipped a beat, and her expression instantly changed. "You... you..." The woman in front of her was none other than Jordan Booth's mother, her former mother-in-law.
Lauren Booth sneered. "It's good that you recognized me! You damn bitch, you're actually not dead. Spit out the money you took from my family! Spit it out!" When enemies met, they were particularly bitter. Many grudges had built up slowly over the years and it was no longer jus a simple matter of Sandra swindling their money.

With new grudges added to old scores, things would not be so easy to settle.
Lauren was downright ferocious as she grabbed Sandra's hand tightly.
You bitch, you're living quite comfortably, aren't you? The clothes you're wearing are all famous brands.
You're squandering our family's wealth and eating so well. You have snerve!" Sandra gasped in pain. She felt as if her arm was about to break. Cold sweat broke out on her forehead as she hurriedly said. "No, I didn't take your family's money!" Back then, half of the money was taken by Tiffany when Sandra asked for medicine from the Miracle Healer.
The other half was snatched away by Miss Hart, who had helped her back then.
