Chapter 92 The Quiet Revenge

It was hard to understand.

But Rhoda had her own little plan.

Bruce could run away from trouble, right?

Then she could do that too.

After signing with Amshien Group, she got some Starcoins. She also took out a small student loan and bought a low-profile necklace-a piece of gear that made people and monsters barely notice her.

If this were the Roseflare, her teammates would have asked about her new gear right away. They would have asked about every stat and every special effect.

But Lucas never asked. So no one knew that when she wore this necklace, she could block a monster once, then quietly lead it toward Lucas. The monster’s attention would lock onto Lucas again-the big, obvious target.

She really was clever.

Rhoda didn’t expect the necklace to save her one more time on her very last day at school.

Rhoda slipped away quietly.

After she got far from Dorm 1444, she thought about those teammates who had set her up. Then she thought about Joanna, whose future looked so bright.

She opened her communicator.

“Do you want to know why you couldn’t contract a summoned beast before?”

She sent the message.

But a system notice popped up.

“You are not friends with this user. As a visitor, you may only send one message per day. Please wait for the other party to add you as a friend.”

Rhoda froze.

Before, she and Joanna had never studied under the same teacher. They weren’t system friends. They weren’t even communicator friends.

The only way to contact Joanna was through her public profile.

Rhoda opened it and her heart sank. Joanna now had five million followers.

There was even a shining tag-Chromatic Star, SAT Top Scorer of Year 6728.

The newest post alone had over 200,000 comments.

There was no way Joanna would ever see that message.

Who knew how many private messages she was getting every second?

If Rhoda wanted Joanna to notice her now, she would have to act like Kayden’s old lackeys— posting loudly, stirring drama, and hoping to catch attention.

And worse. Rhoda had taken Joanna’s place as a new team member. She hadn’t even gotten into college. People online had already started mocking her.

A few hundred comments would be a storm of abuse.

“I can’t go public,” Rhoda muttered. “People online only have mouths. They can yell all they want. But if I post openly and Lucas sees it, I’ll offend him for sure.

“Joanna is the top scorer. She’s about to enter the Star Domain Battle and aim for the Chromatic Star. What about me? I’m still here. I even work in the same company as Lucas. What if they take revenge on me?”

She sighed. “Fine. I’ll wait. Revenge can take time. I’ll send Joanna one quiet message every day. Sooner or later, it will reach her. Maybe I can even get something from her.”

With that thought, Rhoda stayed silent.

She didn’t expose what Lucas and the others had done.

At the same time, on the other side of the city, Joanna shook hands with Louise.

They stood in the courtroom of the judgment hall and released a public statement together.

Half an hour later, public opinion online started to turn in favor of the Amshien Group.

“Pleasure working with you, Joanna,” Louise said with a warm smile. “If you need anything, just let me know. By the way, you should be graduating today, right? Do you have a place to stay? I booked you the presidential suite at the fifteen-star hotel in Violetlight City.”

The suite wasn’t really booked just for Joanna. Big companies always had a room reserved at

hotels like that. If Joanna said yes, it would be ready right away.

But the way Louise said it made it sound special.

That was her skill.

Years in the business world had made her smooth and pleasant, like a soft breeze.

Joanna shook her head and declined.
