The Framed Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 64

Chapter 64 Nothing Like Her

Chapter 64 Nothing Like Her

Not everyone at school was a fan of Stella.

For those who didn’t idolize her, Stella generally kept her distance.

There was an unspoken agreement. They minded their own business, and she minded hers.

After all, her brothers were extremely protective of her, and crossing them was never a good idea.

Once the other girl had walked away, Emily and Amanda exchanged a look.

So, the rumor about the Summers being kicked out of the Barlows’s dinner is true? And what about Stella? Doesn’t she have four brothers? Have they been kicked out too?

To Emily and Amanda, Stella’s brothers seemed untouchable. They were powerful figures who commanded respect, and the idea of them being shown the door was almost impossible to believe. It made Stella seem weaker than they had ever thought.

Emily tried to reassure her friend. “It’s fine. Stella can’t stand gossip, especially when it’s about Davina. Let’s not bring it up around her again

Amanda rolled her eyes, a sarcastic smile playing on her lips. “She acts all high and mighty, but the truth is she’s always been so full of herself. She calls herself the Summers‘ little princess, but doesn’t it seem like she created that image all on her own?”

Having known Stella for years, Amanda and Emily had never been treated as equals. They didn’t come from families with the same wealth and status as Stella’s, and despite Stella’s repeated promises to introduce them to her brothers, it had never happened

They had only met them a few times, usually in passing, never in a setting where they could get to know them.

Stella always made sure they stayed away from her brothers unless she was there.

She would claim that her brothers didn’t like girls who were too forward.

By now, they had given up on the idea of getting close to Stella’s family. They were simply too scared to challenge her.

Emily lowered her voice. “Forget about it. Do you remember Maisie?

Mentioning Maisie made Amanda’s face fall.

She knew better than anyone what had happened to Maisie after she had stood up to Stella.

Maisie’s life had taken a sharp downturn, and not long after that, Davina had announced she was taking a leave of absence to study abroad. The school had enforced a gag order on the situation, but rumors still spread.

Some people even suspected Davina’s involvement in Maisie’s accident.

Whispers had circulated about Davina being seen near the spot where Maisie had fallen, which only fueled the fire.

Despite the reports of Davina going abroad, rumors that she had been jailed still lingered.

But Amanda and Emily knew the truth–Davina and Maisie hadn’t had any real conflict.

It was actually Stella who had been behind the bullying, manipulating everyone, including the school, to turn against Maisie.

Two years had passed, and the scandal was beginning to fade from people’s memories.

Now, with Davina’s return, she seemed like a completely different person. She didn’t look like someone who had ever been in jail

Someone had even seen her dressed in high–end designer clothes, dining with a wealthy heir. She seemed transformed.

That solidified the notion that she never could’ve gone to jail.

Still, the memory of what had happened to Maisie made Amanda and Emily uneasy.

At the Windbreaker Esports Club, Ashen was absorbed in his practice match when one of his teammates called out to him.

“Ashen, Ashen! You have to see this! This girl looks just like you–she’s gorgeous!”

Annoyed, Ashen took off his headphones and glanced at the photo on his teammate’s phone
