But the next moment. Willem quickly composed herself. She vorrred. If you really wanted to expose me, you would’ve done it already. Why wait

Sella was momentarily speechless

Willow knew she had hit the mark, relaxing inwardly.

She fel relieved it wasn’t Elana behind this. If it were Elana, she would’ve exposed everything without hesitation. But Stella’s hesitation revealed ber sellah motiura.

Willen rrahured there was room to negotiate.

She asked. “So, what do you want? And how did you even find out about this”

Frigning hesitation, Stella said, “If you want me to keep quiet, you’ll have to buy my silence with money”

Villow ineered and thought, 1 knew you were just another greedy fool‘

She thought that there was nothing in this world that money couldn’t solve.

Willow said. “Impressive that you managed to come up with this way to threaten me.”

Stella pressed on, “Well You don’t have much time left. The competition starts this weekend. If you refuse, I’ve got plenty of-evidence to ruin your reputation at Isonstead University!“

Willow crossed her arms and scoffed. Before asking for money, shouldn’t you show me what so–called evidence you have?”

Stella pulled out half the evidence Eliana had prepared.

Seeing it. Willow fch a chill down her spine. Lara really came to Dratora City. She worked at a nursing home rear sonstead University. Willow thought. Good thing this fool came to me first. If Lara caused a scene at school, I’d be completely blindsided!‘

She asked. These things. Did Lara give them to you?”

Stella replied, “Yes. Give me the money, and I’ll delete everythin

A flash of malice gleamed in Willow’s eyes. This bitch!”

Willow asked, “How much do you want!”

Stella replied. “Thirty thousand dollars.”

Willow became silent

Willow hesitated, recalling she had already paid nearly the same amount to Six Noir for the investigation. It was an annoying coincidence

Stella said. Give me 30 thousand dollars, and I’ll delete everything”

Willow asked, “Why should I trust you?”

Stella replied. “The stored everything on my phone. Give me the money, and I’ll hand over the phone.”

Willow pondered her options.

Befour Willow could decide, the class bell rang-

Eliana, who had been hiding upstairs, came down the stairs just then.

Sering Eluna, Willow lowered her voice. “Don’t tell Eliana about this. I’ll give you an answer after class”

She then walked into the classroom.

Eliana approached Stella, who f

flashed an “OK” hand gesture. Together, they entered the classroom.

After class, Willow agreed to Stella’s demands after much consideration

311PM

Chapter 180

Willow gave Stella 30 thousand dollars. Stella, having already transferred the critical files elsewhere, handed her phone to Willow,

Willow thought she had secured the evidence, unaware that the entire situation was a trap orchestrated by Eliana and Stella.

Eliana pooled together the 27 thousand dollars she had previously obtained.

She let Stella keep seven thousand dollars from the 30 thousand dollars. It was enough to cover her tuition and fees at Isonstead University for the next few semesters, easing her family’s financial burden.

The remaining 50 thousand dollars were all given to Lara for the treatment of her ears.

Eliana also arranged for Lara to leave Dratora City that very night

She knew that after giving up the money, Willow would inevitably target Lara at the nursing home.

Lara was utterly stunned when she saw the 50 thousand dollars transfer. To her, this was a huge amount.

It would take her a long time to earn this amount.

The treatment for her nerve–related hearing loss wasn’t that expensive, but her family’s financial struggles left her unable to afford it.

With this sum, she could not only get her ears treated but also attend a decent university.

Lara muttered, “You guys.”

Overwhelmed with emotion, Lara burst into tears. “You’ve been so good to me. I don’t even know how to thank you..”

Eliana gently patted her shoulder. This money was always rightfully yours. Don’t worry I’m not done with Willow yet. I make her pay for everything, including what she owes you.”

Wiping her tears, Lara asked, “Why do you want to take revenge op Willow too? Did she hurt you as well?

Eliana lowered her gaze, keeping her reasons to herself “Leave Drators City, Go to another city, grow stronger, and return only when you’re ready”

Lara remained silent before saying, “Okay, I understand. Thank you

That night, Lara boarded a flight and left Dratora City.

Eliana and Stella accompanied her to the airport, watching the plane take off before leaving together.

Under the night sky, they walked out of the airport side by side.

Stella said. “Helping others feels pretty good. You’re a good person, Eliana”

Eliana didn’t consider herself a good person. Everything she did was aimed squarely at Willow.

She replied, “People have many sides, Stella. Right now, you’re just seeing my good one

Eliana’s prediction was spot on.
