Chapter 34
Jasper lifted the necklace from the box and gently fastened it around Louisa’s neck.
Just then, his phone rang. Without a word, he turned and stepped out of the room.
Meanwhile, Louisa gave a quick instruction to Maryanne before settling in for a nap.

By 3:00 pm, a taxi pulled up at the gates of Kingston Gardens.
Several university students gawked at the luxurious residence in front of them. Even the rumored castle-like houses in the city looked small in comparison. It was no wonder the prestigious Hayes family sat at the top of the country’s social ladder.
Felicia Chesson strode forward first, her chin held high and her voice commanding. “We’re here as Ms. Lowe’s guests!”
“Which Ms. Lowe?” the security guard asked.
“Estelle Lowe!” Felicia rolled her eyes.
“Don’t know her.”
“What did you say? She’s close to Mr. Hayes and invited us to tour around the residence!”
“I said I don’t know her. Who’s this Estelle Lowe Just some random woman trying to get close to Mr. Hayes?” the guard sneered.

They all yelped as the broom swatted at them. The group had no choice but to run. Only after they were far away did they stop to catch their breath. One of them muttered, “What just happened? Didn’t Estelle invite us here herself?”

Estelle sounded as innocent as ever. “To be honest, I’m not the one who took the photo, it was from Louisa, She said if I posted it, you could all go visit. But just now, she called me and said it was just a trick…”
“What? Louisa?” Felicia’s gaze darkened, and she ground her teeth. “Louisa actually fooled us!
There was no way she’d let that
pass,
Meanwhile, Louisa had no idea what Estelle had just done. Her afternoon passed peacefully, Later that evening, she headed to college for night classes.
After class, she returned to her dorm to freshen up,
Not long after she got comfortable, a commotion broke out outside, Felicia and a few others had arrived. Their steps faltered at the doorway,
