The Real Daughter Came Back to Chill and Kill novel Chapter 82

Soon, Scarlett received a text from an unfamiliar number. "Scarlett, I'm warning you. Don't try to disappear on me!"

The sudden threat took Scarlett aback. A couple of days later, the same number sent another message.

"Scarlett, it's Jonah. Call me now!" Scarlett rolled her eyes and immediately blocked the number.

She had heard from Percy that Jonah and Lily were desperately looking for her and found it utterly ridiculous. They practically wished she didn't exist when she was with them like she was a thorn in their side.

But now that she was out of sight, they were scrambling to find her, acting like they were terrified she might disappear. Something had to be wrong with them.

Scarlett ignored them. As long as she stayed put, no one outside would hear about her.

The Elite Math Tournament was just a week away. Every day, besides treating and caring for Xavier, she was buried in math questions. Once she finished the existing ones, she'd go online to find more questions to solve.

…

Meanwhile, as Jonah's messages were ignored, his anxiety grew by the day. He even regretted letting his underlings bully her. He had forced her to fight back like a wild animal, angering so many people in the process.

Now, with no sign of her, he couldn't shake the thought that it was all his fault. His mind was too scattered to focus on the math questions. He spent over an hour on a paper, barely making it through half of it, before he tossed his pen aside in frustration.

Lily walked in holding a few test papers, her face flushed with excitement. "Jonah! Look, I got Mr. Lancaster's elite math questions!"

In the world of elite math, Caius Lancaster was a household name. Not only was he the mastermind behind the Elite Math Tournament question-making team, but he was also the creator of some of the most challenging, nearly insurmountable problems.

Caius' elite math questions were never made public. Only children from the most influential and powerful families had a chance to get their hands on them.
