Chapter 305
Kenneth Harper had always been a gentle person. He hugged Melody Princeton and consoled her patiently.
“It’s not your fault. I didn’t prepare in advance. I only arranged for land transport but I overlooked the geography here.”
It did not occur to Kenneth that parts of the mountain roads here were not accessible by car.
Now that they had left Lovell City so long ago, it would probably take a long time to arrange for helicopters.
Melody nodded. “It’s alright. I believe Tiffany will arrange for the helicopter to fly back to pick us up when they reach the destination.”
Kenneth did not say anything. He suspected that was highly unlikely.
With Tiffany’s vengeful personality, she was already very kind when she did not pelt them with fruits.
As it turned out, Kenneth was right.
Half an hour later, the helicopters did return.
However, the pilots refused to ferry the Harper family’s people on the grounds that they had to transport the supplies. As the remaining charity’s staff and the school’s coordinating team boarded the helicopters, the Harper family’s driver blurted out angrily, “Why is it they are allowed to board but we are not?”
Someone replied, These helicopters belong to the Kelley family. Do you have a problem with that?”
That riposte sounded oddly familiar.
Everyone was rendered speechless.
The Harper group had no grounds to complain. After all, they were here to do charitable work. It was only reasonable that the truck supplies and the staff in charge of distribution get priority.
The Harper group had neither donated funds nor contributed in other ways. The whole big entourage comprised mostly drivers, medics, and personal assistants.
In other words, they were just a bunch of spongers.
The rest of the people did not mock the Harper group for putting on airs yet the Harper group still acted all indignant as if they had been hard done by. Therefore, the Harper group could just continue the rest of the journey on foot for all they cared,
Kenneth’s face clouded over. He did not expect Tiffany to be so ruthless. He was so angry that his temples were throbbing.
Melody took the opportunity to comfort Kenneth. “It’s fine, Kenny. Let’s just treat it as an experience.”
“Yeah.” He smiled in resignation.
There was no sign of the anger Melody was expecting, only the usual accommodating acceptance.
Melody’s eyes widened and her smile faded.
Going up the mountain would be tough..
Chapter 305
The staircase was constructed in thick, mottled iron chains and wooden planks. It was time–consuming and tiring to climb up step by step, and it was alsora little dangerous. The group of people ascended in a single file, feeling their way forward. fearfully at a snail’s pace.
It took the Harper group more than two hours to navigate up the mountain.
By the time the group arrived at their destination, everyone was sweating profusely and their limbs were aching. It was truly a sorry sight.
Then their attention was drawn to one of the farmhouses where they would be staying this time. Tiffany was already sitting on a wicker chair, enjoying the mountain breeze.
There was a circle of little kids in front of her. All of them were offering all kinds of snacks to her with bright eyes.
“Tiffany, try this. This is sweet potato grown in my family’s field
“Tiffany, try this. It’s made from fresh corn.”
“Me, me, me! Try mine!”
The Harper group was seething at the perceived injustice as they watched Tiffany and the kids.
When Zoe saw the Harper group, she shouted out bluntly, “You guys are too slow. You are hopeless in everything but number one in slacking off!”
Melody surveyed the place. She noticed the helicopters that were parked not far away. There were many empty containers on the ground.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she immediately asked, “Where are the supplies?”
Zoe replied leisurely, “Didn’t you see? They have all been distributed.”
The Melvor Mountain village chief had been informed earlier that the charity was coming. When Tiffany’s helicopters were the first to arrive, he was already waiting with the entire village to receive them.
The helicopters made a few trips to transport six truckloads of supplies. The charity staff and school staff worked together with the village chief to distribute everything quickly.
Zoe crossed her arms and taunted Melody. “All the supplies have been distributed. Do you have a problem with that?”
“L.. Melody almost exploded with rage.
She yelled out, “You should at least wait for us to come before doing this! Otherwise…”
Otherwise, all the credit would go to Tiffany and Zoe. The villagers would only be grateful to those two girls while she, Melody Princeton, gained nothing.
Zoe immediately rolled her eyes. “Tsk, tsk, tsk. Who do you think you are? Why should we wait for you to distribute the supplies? How shameless!”
Melody contributed nothing to these supplies in the first place.
The money for nearly two million dollars‘ worth of supplies came out of Tiffany’s pocket.
Only Tiffany was qualified to handle this batch of supplies. She did not need anyone to lecture her.
“What a fucking joke!’ Zoe snorted.
The mocking continued unabated. “Why? Are you feeling hard done by because I didn’t give you a chance to put on a show?
Chapter 303
Don’t worry. Just get Mr Haper to splurge a thousand bucks to make you smile. That should be enough to make you feel important!”
“That’s not what I mean. I just… Melody wanted to explain but wis cowed by Zoe’s ferocious glare,
“Get lost!” Zoe barked
Her voice was so loud that it reverberated through the mountain
Melody’s eyes became red–rimmed and tears fell.
Kenneth pacified her with a look of resignation, “Alright, alright. Put your things down first. I’ll take you to the place where you’ll be staying tonight.
“Mm–hmm…” Melody followed him, but as she turned to go, she shot Zoe a look brimming with venom.
‘Sooner or later, you will get your comeuppance!‘ she cursed inwardly.
