Chapter 1660:
Despite the title loss, Mylo still wielded considerable influence. Online, the onlookers might mock and deride Celine without restraint, but in person, they only dared to whisper among themselves.
Harlee swept a knowing smile around the group, observing everyoneâs reactions, including the calculating Nola and the distraught Celine. Finding the whole scenario tedious, she realized that even without her intervention, the inevitable outcome for Nola and Celine would still be conflict. Turning to Elva, she asked, âWant to go have breakfast?â
âYes.â
Elva nodded eagerly, then linked arms with Harlee and walked away, leaving amidst the envious stares of the onlookers.
After their departure, the crowd gradually thinned out. The principal found an excuse to return to his office, leaving Celine standing alone, pale and panicked, with Nola, who wore a look of calculation.
Celine, tears in her eyes, reached out to take Nolaâs hand. Nola, suppressing her revulsion, did not pull away.
âWhatâs wrong?â Nola asked, feigning concern.
Celine shook her head, tears welling up. She opened her arms for a hug, but Nola turned aside reflexively. Unable to stop her momentum, Celine stumbled forward and fell to the ground.
Stunned by the fall, Celine remained on the ground.
Nola, masking her disgust, reverted to her usual demeanor toward Celine, squatting down to help her up.

âIâm sorry, Celine. I was distracted just now. Are you okay?â
Celine nodded blankly.
âIâm okay, Nola. Donât worry. Our relationship wonât be torn apart by Harlee. By the way, when will you successfully become the leader of the Happer family? Harlee has significant backing. You must help me teach her a lesson!â
Initially, Nola was ready to cast Celine away, deeming her useless, but at Celineâs words, she changed her mind.
Nola chose her words carefully.
âCeline, you said Harlee has significant backing? How did you know? Could the Cavendish familyâs troubles be related to her? Tell me everything. Maybe the Happer family can offer some assistance.â
Hope sparked in Celineâs eyes. How could she have forgotten that her best friend was poised to lead the Happer family? Nola could certainly help the Cavendish family weather this storm. After all, the Cavendish family was merely facing financial troubles. The Happer family was wealthy and influential, certainly not lacking in financial resources.
Thinking this way, Celine relayed everything Mylo had told her last night to Nola, adding some embellishments about Harleeâs alleged misdeeds.
Rhys had instructed Patrick to use a crane to tow Harleeâs car away from the entrance of Uwhor University and then parked his own Maybach in her spot. As Harlee and Elva emerged from the campus, they saw Rhys casually leaning against the car. He waved at them.
Elvaâs eyes lit up at the sight of the Maybach. She clapped her hand over her mouth to stifle a scream, her excitement barely contained.
âOh my gosh, Harlee, this car is so cool! Can I take a picture with it?â It was Elvaâs first encounter with such a luxurious car.
Harlee, who had already summoned a ride, calmly canceled it upon hearing Elvaâs request. Her voice was calm and affectionate.
âSure, Iâll ask him to take the picture for you.â
Harlee and Elva walked over, and Rhys consciously positioned himself behind Harlee.
Harlee shot Rhys a glare, knowing without a doubt he was responsible for her car being towed.
After the photo, they settled into the back seat of the Maybach.
As Rhys drove, he said, âLee, Aldrich sent a message that the intensive boot camp is over. He and Alina are flying to Uwhor tonight.â
