Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 766

Now that Jillian Lowe had defected, and considering Vanessa looked down on Leah, Vanessa didn't have anyone around to fetch her coffee or flatter her ego.

For a girl used to being the undisputed queen bee, it was a genuinely uncomfortable adjustment.

"Look, I'm just saying, moving over there will make things easier for you. If you stay here, you're at odds with Mira. Jillian is busy kissing Mira's ass, so she's not going to give you the time of day either. You'll be completely isolated. I'm actually thinking of your own good."

Vanessa spoke with the condescending air of a privileged heiress.

"Vanessa, it's not that I don't want to move, but Elara Finn is over there, and she's Mira's best friend. Lydia Monroe is close with Elara, so she'd just freeze me out too. I've heard Lydia is incredibly toxic. I'm better off staying here. Please, just let me stay and help you out."

It was just running a few errands. If Jillian could do it, Leah refused to believe she couldn't.

Who knows? Vanessa might even introduce her to a wealthy boyfriend.

Unlike Mira. Harvey had several great guys in his dorm, and there were plenty of eligible men at her company, but Mira lived like a nun and never bothered to set anyone up.

"I already told you I don't want you around. Are you deaf?"

Seeing Leah still refusing to pack her things, Vanessa lost her temper.

"Vanessa, please, just let me work for you! Please..."

Seeing that they were alone in the dorm, Leah broke down entirely, collapsing onto the floor and desperately grabbing the edge of Vanessa's chair.

Vanessa cast a sideways glance at her, inspecting her like a cheap piece of merchandise. "Fine. You might be incompetent, but at least you know how to grovel. You definitely have the potential to be a loyal lapdog. I'll give you one chance. Go clean the bathroom. Sanitize it, run the water, and lay out my toiletries. Remember to do this every time. I hate repeating myself, so I won't say it twice. If you mess up, this opportunity is gone."

Vanessa lounged on her bed, propping her head up with one hand as she looked down at her.
