Chapter 241: Chapter 241

The girl’s delicate brows and eyes were cold, her face expressionless, yet chilling to the bone.

Eleanor Linden felt a chill surge from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, her entire body trembling with fear as she desperately screamed, "Serena, you’ve already bankrupted my family, what more do you want?!"

Looking at the collapsed Eleanor Linden, Serena Everett didn’t spare her even half a glance, making it clear that she was completely disregarding her.

Serena’s indifferent gaze fell on Summer Miller, inexplicably giving her full confidence.

"An eye for an eye, get your revenge."

Listening to these words, Summer felt a warm surge in her heart. Serena had previously told her to recuperate well, and when she was healed, to take revenge personally. Serena was indeed true to her word!

"I know what to do now, Serena!"

Serena nonchalantly nodded, her long and straight legs lazily bending as she watched this great performance intently.

"Ah... don’t come any closer..."

Watching Summer Miller approach her step by step, Eleanor’s face turned even paler, shouting in fear.

"Summer, don’t think you’re anything just because Serena Everett is protecting you now! When the time comes and you no longer have her shelter, you’ve offended me, leaving only the path to death..."

Her ranting wasn’t finished before she received a heavy slap on her face.

"Ah..." Eleanor was dumbfounded by the slap, looking at Summer incredulously, "You wretch dare to really hit me?!"

Even though the Linden Family went bankrupt, Eleanor still considered herself superior to ordinary people, despising those from humble backgrounds. Now, being slapped by someone she looked down on the most was something she could not accept.

"Wretch?" Summer Miller chuckled coldly, her eyes filled with hatred, and without hesitation, she raised her hand and slapped Eleanor fiercely again, "Only someone as wicked and vile as you deserves to be called a wretch!"

Summer unleashed all her hatred, leaving Eleanor’s face swollen like a pig’s head, crying for mercy.

"Ah... it hurts so much... please stop... I know I was wrong, spare me!"

Summer replied coldly, "Can’t take it already? This can’t compare to what you did to me back then!"

Back then, Eleanor had trapped her in a dark alley with a group of bodyguards, humiliating and beating her wantonly, eventually throwing her into that hell known as The Pit. She hadn’t even done a fraction of what Eleanor did!

Eleanor’s face twisted in pain, her eyes glaring poisonously at Summer.

"Who told you not to cooperate with me back then? You brought this on yourself!"

If she had helped Eleanor trick Serena, she wouldn’t have acted so ruthlessly!

"How dare you bring up the past! If I cooperated with you to harm Serena, I’d end up being as wicked and selfish as you!"

Eleanor Linden’s face twisted even more, hysterically screaming in anger.

"This is all your fault! I just transferred to Imperia University, and you all ostracized me collectively, favoring Serena! If you hadn’t isolated me, only favoring Serena, how could I have done such a thing?!"

Listening to this, Summer was greatly shocked, "You’re truly shameless to the extreme!"

Clearly, it was Eleanor who had come to Imperia University aloof and deliberately targeted Serena, prompting everyone’s resentment against her. But unexpectedly, she was now blaming everyone for ostracizing her!

"You blame everything on others, never reflecting on your own mistakes!"

"What mistakes have I made?!"

Eleanor didn’t see herself as wrong at all; her only mistake was not investigating Serena’s identity thoroughly before acting. If given another chance, she would make sure to uncover Serena’s identity before plotting against her, ensuring no one would trace it back to her!

"Why waste words on her?"

Serena Everett mocked with a slight curl of her lips, turning to Jude Ford by her side with a cold command.

"Throw her into The Pit, let her feel the taste of being cast into that hell."

"Got it, boss!" Jude responded respectfully.

Hearing she was to be thrown into The Pit, Eleanor trembled uncontrollably, screaming sharply in fear.

"No... I don’t want to go to The Pit..."

"You don’t get to refuse."

Jude interrupted her coldly, knowing his boss detested noise, swiftly stuffing a cloth into Eleanor’s mouth and dragging her out directly.

Summer sincerely thanked Serena Everett; if it weren’t for Serena, she would have been maimed even if she hadn’t died when thrown into The Pit!

Serena not only saved her but also gave her the chance for personal revenge; otherwise, with her ordinary family background, she couldn’t have done anything against Eleanor.

"No need to be polite with me." Serena’s tone was gentle, handing her ointment from her pocket, "This is scar-removal ointment; apply it daily, and within a month, all the scars on your body will disappear."

"Serena..." ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel✶fire.net

Summer didn’t expect Serena to be so considerate, moved to the point where her eyes reddened. No girl would want scars on her body, and Summer was no exception.

She had prepared to wear long sleeves her whole life, but the surprise came so fast!

"Boohoohoo! Serena, you’re like a real sister to me! I’ll follow your lead always!"

After Summer left, Jude immediately walked in quickly.

"Boss, recently there’s a group secretly investigating your Lord Moros identity movements..."

Hearing this, Serena lightly pursed her red lips, an impatience surfacing in her exquisite brows and eyes.

She hadn’t used the name ’Lord Moros’ for a long time; running into trouble right after appearing once.

"Find out who’s secretly investigating me, and then I don’t need to say more, right."

If they were seeking trouble themselves, then Serena certainly would not be easy to deal with.

"Understood, boss, I definitely know what to do!"

Jude nodded immediately, having been by the boss’s side for years; if he didn’t understand even this, he’d have wasted all those years.

"By the way, boss, there’s another strange thing I need to report to you: the KW Group suddenly started targeting the Linden Family, but upon investigation, it seems the Linden Family has no conflicts with KW Group at all; it’s very strange."

KW Group is backed by The Midnight Syndicate, and its actions are equivalent to those of The Midnight Syndicate.

"Why would The Midnight Syndicate suddenly be idle enough to target an insignificant small company...?"
