Hope It's Not Too Late to Love novel Chapter 533

Chapter 537

She's still denying it?

"Heh." The kids sneered. Wow, she's just like Melanie. It's the same thing every time. At least be original, you know? We're sick of hearing the same lines.

James said languidly, "Gee, if you really think we're lying, you can always tell the teacher. Or better yet, the cops."

Lilith panicked and was in shock. She didn't want to cause trouble just yet.

"This school doesn't take lying kids. Get a teacher here. Once we find out who the liar is, we'll get them expelled." Jack didn't want to waste any time with her and used a more direct approach.

Lilith was starting to get spooked. I can't get expelled. The young master can't find out about this, or he'll no longer have any use of me.

"Why are you looking so scared?" Jude shot her a look of disdain.

Lilith didn't want to give up, but she had to. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that." I shouldn't have underestimated them. I lost once. I should have learned my lesson. She blamed herself for her careless action.

James saw through her. He whispered, "We know you want to be a part of the family, but don't forget, we're here too."

"That's some sloppy job you did. You can't even spook us, and you think Daddy and Mommy will fall for your tricks? We're not stupid, you know?" Jack said.

"Tell us what you know, and we might help you," Jude said coldly.

The kids were staring at her, and she started fidgeting while averting her gaze. "What are you talking about? I don't get it," she denied, though she was secretly in shock. How did they know so much? Did Hanson and Vania find out what I'm after? So what happened earlier wasn't a coincidence? What should I do?

"We gave you a chance, and you busted it. Fine." Morales disliked this girl.

Morgan added, "That was your last chance."

The kids went to their seats and ignored Lilith.

Lilith froze up and went back to her seat stiffly. She looked enviously at the crystal pencil Lily was holding. I'm not giving up just like that.

…

Eddie's villa.

Bailey was standing beside Eddie, reporting to him what happened at the school gates that morning. "I saw that myself, Young Master Eddie."

Eddie fiddled with his lighter, his eyes bereft of any emotion. "I see. Then I have no use for her anymore."

"She can't stay around anymore now that she can't be of use to you, sir."

"Take her back to where she came from." Eddie didn't feel anything for Lilith. "Do you have any more suitable candidates?"

Bailey clicked into his phone gallery and showed Eddie some photos. "What do you think about them, sir?"

The photo was of a mother and daughter, but they didn't look alike. "More details." Eddie was interested in them.

Bailey quickly showed Eddie their details. "They've been waiting a long time to work for you, sir."

"Make the necessary arrangements right away, and no mistakes this time." He was talking about the mistake Lilith made.
