Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 109

When Mira walked over, the student sitting next to Harvey had just finished eating and left. Without wasting any time, she sat down and got straight to the point.

"Have your Rivers family people keep an eye on Evelyn Crowe. If she does anything improper, get evidence.

"If we don't get her replaced, she'll be a lot of trouble later on. You know that."

A homeroom teacher had a lot of power, especially during senior year. If she pulled some strings, it could affect their future.

"Why don't you have someone watch her?"

"I'm not part of the Mercer family anymore. I don't have anyone to command."

Mira glanced around and lowered her voice. "Let's split the work. You get the evidence, and I'll report her. How's that?"

Harvey finally nodded. The guy never took a loss.

"Did you really cut ties with your family?"

"Of course. One hundred percent. I'm never going back in this lifetime."

"You're disowning your parents, your brother? And you're giving up the inheritance, the billions of dollars?"

"That's right. I don't want it."

"Wow. Seriously impressive. All because of that Mara?"

How many children of wealthy families could give up such a privileged life?

"She's part of the reason, but she's not the main problem."

Thinking of Mara's twisted possessiveness and her family's unconditional indulgence and enabling—even encouraging it—a flash of disgust crossed Mira's beautiful eyes, but it vanished as quickly as it appeared.

"Anyway, I have to go. Those two are waiting for me outside. Remember what I said, and act fast."

As she turned to leave, Mira saw her deskmate, Elara, secretly eating a plain piece of bread in the corner.

"Elara, why didn't you buy any food? You're just eating that?"

She looked up at Mira, a little embarrassed.

"I… I'm fine with this."
