Chapter 28 Seeking Help from Milly Mnie''s heart skipped a beat. After a while, a wave of panic washed over her.
Her intuition told her that something significant had urred to her family. Something beyond her control.
She looked at her mother, who was standing silently, weeping. Suppressing her inner fear, she asked with a trembling voice, “Mom, what''s happening? Please don''t scare me. What''s going on?" Emily looked at Mnie with a heavy heart and sobbed. "Mnie, our family''spany... has gone bankrupt." Mnie felt as though the ground had crumbled beneath her feet. The news seems surreal.
Her eyes widened in disbelief and fear as she shook her head, muttering, "No, this can''t be happening. Everything seemed fine earlier. Dad even mentioned a major project that could significantly boost ourpany''s revenue this year...
Her face paled. She desperately clutched her mother''s sleeve, hoping it was all a lie. "Mom, are you serious? Is this because you didn''t want to buythat new bag? I don''t need it, I swear. Please, tellthis isn''t true." Tears welled in Emily''s eyes; her onceposed demeanour was shattered. She looked at Mnie with pity and helplessness, "Mniec, when will you grow up?" Mnie covered her ears and yelled hysterically, refusing to ept the harsh reality.
Her voice quivered as she eximed, “I refuse to believe it. How could we go bankrupt? You''re lying to me! Yes! You''re lying!" Fearing her daughter''s reaction, Emily embraced her. "Mnie, calm down. There might be a way out of this." Mnie stood still, repeating mechanically, "A way out?" Even Jeff, sitting in shock on the floor, looked up hopefully, "Honey, is there really a solution? Can we overcthis?" Emily nodded, "Yes. Remember when you called for help earlier? Despite the rejections, they hinted that someone was targeting ourpany because you offended people who shouldn''t be offended in school. Think, Mnie, who have you shed with recently?" Before marrying into the family, Emily Shaw was a sessful businesswoman in her own right. However, after marrying Jeff Spencer, she slowly retreated behind the scenes, but her sharp business acumen remained intact. After calming down, she saw a glimmer of hope in the situation.
Since they all said Mnie had provoked people in the school, they can work hard on this. They should apologise and makepensation, and things may turn around..
Mnie''s eyes were swollen, her hands clenched tightly as she reflected on the school feud...
Chapter 28 Seeking Help from Milly It was Milly! The only person she had shed with recently was Milly! "Mom, I remember now. It''s Milly!" ?54% Emily fin rowed her eyebrow, processing this information before asking. "Is she the Buts''s newly recognised daughter?" Mnie confirmed, "Yes. That''s her." But then she hesitated, “No. Stephanie and I are close friends. My conflict with Milly was to help Stephanie: If the Buts were targeting us, Stephanie would have informedEmily remained silent, contemting the situation as her mind raced.
Their Spencer Group was less powerful than the But Group, but it was also an influentialpany in the local area. It would be challenging for the But Group to bring them down overnight.
There must be a greater force behind it.
"Mnie, call your close friend Stephanie, inform her about our bankruptcy, and observe her reaction." Mnie hesitated, not wanting to lose face in front of her ssmates. "Mom, I..." Emily could see through her daughter''s thoughts with just one look. Therefore, she sternly stared at Mnie. "If you still want to continue attending school, living in this mansion, and buying designer brands, you must listen to me!" Mnie obediently took out her phone and made the call.
Meanwhile, Stephanie stood outside Milly''s door, hoping to gain Milly''s sympathy.
"Milly, congrattions on achieving first ce in the entire grade. If Mom and Dad knew, they would be pleased." Milly leaned against the door, raising an eyebrow. "Did you cto my door just to thank me?" She doubted the sincerity of this seemingly kind-hearted girl.
Stephanie immediately teared up, stepped forward, and gently grabbed Milly''s sleeve, choking back tears.
"Milly, Mnie posted your previous grades on Crestwood High''s website uy and humiliated you. I only found out about itter. V didn''t expect her jealousy to be so intense that she would hurt you so much. If I had known earlier, I would have stopped her." "The bet was not my idea. It was her recklessness. Our rtionship is not good at all. We are just ssmates. I never imagined she would involvein the bet, causing a rift between us. Please don''t be angry withbecause of her actions." Milly was impressed by her maniption and deceit.
No wonder in the , it is the original owner or those business tycoons of the Buts, they have ve beem deceived by this girl. With this unpredictable face, even if she was a movie queen in my previous life, she was out of reach of this acting ability. Chapter 28 Seeking Help from Milly Milly smiled slightly, intrigued by her tactics. "Oh? Is that all? Then I forgive you. If there''s nothing else, I''ll go back to studying." With that, she turned around.
Stephanie didn''t expect Milly to forgive herself so easily. She initially thought it would take a lot of effort.

Thus, she smiled and continued, "Since you''ve forgiven me, can you speak to the teacher and resolve the issue of apologising under the national g? It all started because of Mnie." Milly chuckled at the request, realising the true intentions behind Stephanie''s visit.
She might have believed her innocence if she hadn''t read the original text.
ording to the description in the book, all the things Mnie did were for Stephanie. Stephanie was fine, She took herself clean with just a sentence or two. She didn''t know whether Mnie, who thought Stephanie was the embodiment of kindness and loveliness, would be furious when she heard herself being ndered like this.
