Chapter 899 Some Evils Are Inriate

Hailey was just about to laugh at her friend’s message when the door suddenly burst open with a bang

Ivana’s hurried voice came through the door. “Our principal Isn’t here right now. If you have any questions, you’ll have to wait until she returns.”

“Ms. Kowalski, what’s all the fuss about?” Halley stood up, clearly annoyed. As she looked up, she saw someone else standing next to Ivana.

Seeing that it was a young woman, Hailey didn’t bother to hide her arrogarice. “Are you looking for my mom? She’s not here. How rude can people be these days, coming to ask for favors like this?”

Hailey then inspected her nails, her contempt evident. She assumed the visitor was another person who had previously sought her mother’s help for various favors.

Wynter scrutinized the high school girl before her. There wasn’t a trace of innocence. She reeked of a foul

stench from head to toe, and a murkiness permeated from within her. Such people were rare.

Although Hailey wasn’t aware that she was a sacrificial offering, Sothoth had a talent for catalyzing the

essence of the living soul.

Someone ás profoundly evil as Hailey was, in some ways, less redeemable than the unborn souls dwelling

underground.

“I’m not here for your mom. I’m here for you,” Wynter announced, her eyes piercing and her face stunningly beautiful, yet lethal.

Hailey didn’t like the way Wynter looked at her, nor did she like anyone prettier than herself.

“Ms. Kowalski, didn’t my mom tell you not to let anyone disturb me?” she said, crossing her arms and raising her chin arrogantly. “You had one job. You should-”

Before Hailey could finish her sentence, she spotted Dalton standing behind Wynter. In an instant, a girlish blush tinted Hailey’s cheeks as she looked at Dalton, the most handsome man she had ever seen.

Not even the celebrities her father introduced her to could compare.

“Are you her boyfriend?” Hailey asked Dalton, her voice sweet and innocent and a smile playing on her lips.

“She’s not good enough for you. She’s so rude. You should be with me instead. My family has money and power. You don’t have to beg others for favors like she does.”

Dalton had not wanted to look at her, but he couldn’t help glancing over at her when he heard her words.

While his expression remained indifferent, his gaze was chilling as though Hailey was nothing more than a foul–smelling carcass to him

Hailey was taken aback by his ferocity. She couldn’t quite describe how she felt inside. Just a moment ago, she had been looking at Dalon with admiration like he were the epitome of charm and grace.

So, why did he seem so terrifying up close? He looked as if he could see through all her secrets. Halley

took a step back.

Wynter watched her with amusement. “Did you just tell him your family has money and power?”

“Is that funny?” Hailey suddenly lost her desire to steal Wynter’s boyfriend. “Go away. Whatever you want from me is not going to happen.”

Ivana had been watching from the side, intending to give Hailey a hint. However, for some reason, since arriving at the doorway, she had found herself speechless.

It was as if something were holding her back, paralyzing her. She couldn’t even make eye contact with

Hailey.

Wynter took advantage of the situation, tapping her phone and casually blocking Ivana with her body. She turned back to Hailey. “You’re saying your mom often does things for other people?”

“Of course!” Hailey blurted out subconsciously. Then, she seemed to realize something and narrowed her

eyes. “But that’s none of your business.”

Suddenly, Wynter picked up her phone. Her voice was calm and faint as she said, “Did you hear that?”
