Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 713

"Mira is right. If you ruin your health and shorten your life fighting over material things, you'll regret it.

Mira isn't hurting for cash; she's a brilliant businesswoman. Please don't go back there and start a war."

Rachel chimed in, echoing Mira's concern.

Eleanor didn't have many years left as it was. Every extra day she had right now was only thanks to the priceless medicinal herbs Mira had sourced through her connections.

"I hear you. Don't worry, I won't cause a scene."

But deep down, she was still determined to reclaim what was hers.

After breakfast, Mira went to her bedroom and retrieved a velvet jewelry box, handing it to Eleanor.

"Please give this Sapphire Heirloom Set to Seraphina for me. I won't be attending the engagement."

The set was worth around a hundred thousand dollars. In the realm of high-end jewelry, it wasn't earth-shatteringly expensive, but it wasn't cheap either.

Mira had received gifts from her aunt and uncle in the past, and this was her way of formally settling the debt.

"Alright. I'll make sure she gets it."

With that sorted, Mira headed off to campus.

Mid-terms were coming up in a few days, which meant she had to cram her schedule with review sessions.

Even though passing was generally the only requirement for university exams, Mira always pushed for perfection. She fully intended to sweep the academic scholarships by the end of the semester.

It wasn't about the money; it was a matter of pride and tangible proof of her relentless work ethic.

During lunch, Elara and Harvey asked about Celine's situation, and Mira gave them the summarized version.

"That's absolutely terrifying. In broad daylight, on a busy street with people walking by, and they still managed to snatch her?

Those kidnappers are out of their minds!"

"It's exactly because of the public setting that people let their guard down.

Celine usually travels with bodyguards, so she's not an easy target. The only time they could strike was when she was separated from them."

"I'm buying pepper spray immediately."

Elara declared, looking thoroughly spooked.

"You don't have to worry about that. They targeted Celine for a massive ransom. You don't exactly have millions sitting in the bank."

Harvey pointed out practically.
