Chapter 281: Graeme, You Deserve To Die


    Chapter 281: Graeme, You Deserve to Die


    Danielle was in a stock trading simtion ss that day, but she had little interest in theplex


    stock market charts. She decided to discreetly browse the school''s online forum, where she


    unexpectedly stumbled upon a popr post.


    The protagonist of the post turned out to be someone she knew quite well-Cheyenne. However,


    Danielle was disappointed to find that the post was filled with praises for Cheyenne. This wasn''t


    something she was happy to see.


    Danielle took screenshots of thepliments about Cheyenne, especially thoseparing


    Cheyenne favorably to the school belle, Nora. She forwarded the screenshots to Nora.


    "What''s this?"


    "Your sister is here, in the principal''s office. The guys at school are all worked up, like they''ve seen


    a woman for the first time. They''re even saying that you don''t deserve the title of ''school belle.''


    They''re talking so rudely about you."


    As Danielle spoke, she watched Nora''s facial expressions. As expected, when the topic of her


    "school belle" came up, Nora''s face didn''t look quite natural.


    Seizing the opportunity, Danielle continued to provoke her in a whisper, "Look at Cheyenne. How


    can shepare to you? A divorced woman suddenly appearing at school and trying to steal the


    limelight."

    On the side, a female student chimed in with disdain, nodding her head, "Those guys must be blind.


    Nora is the epitome of pure beauty, not like that shameless seductress who lures men all around."


    Nora was slightly affected by their praises, and her dark, lustrous eyes sparkled as she gave a faint,


    shy smile. "But my sister is prettier, and it''s normal for many guys to like her. Unlike me... sigh."


    Her self-deprecatingment earned her disapproving res from the other two girls, who seemed


    determined to bolster her confidence. "Who says that? You have plenty of guys who like you too!"


    As they discussed this, Nora blushed. She bit her lip and lowered her head shyly, responding softly,


    "Please, stop it. The teacher is watching us."


    "Right."


    Danielle decided to change the subject slightly, keeping an eye on the post about Cheyenne. She


    came across a video clip and a thought urred to her.


    She cut out a specific segment from the video and sent it to Nora, along with an encouraging


    message: "Victory or defeat is in your hands, Nora. You have the power to choose now. Go for it!"


    Nora simply replied with a brief "Yes," and the conversation ended there.


    Meanwhile, Peyton was eventually taken away by the police. Cheyenne and Graeme engaged in a


    heated argument, with Cheyenne vowing to hire the bestwyer for her defense. Graeme, on the


    other hand, clung to the point of Kate not being deflowered, believing that a goodwyer could win


    the case.


    People couldn''t help but feel disappointed by Graeme''s unwavering support for his cousin, even


    when she was facing serious consequences. Why was he going to such lengths to help his cousin?


    Was it because of their family ties and their long history together, allowing personal emotions to


    override the principles of justice?


    "Mr. Mathews, go ahead and find awyer, we''re not afraid," Cheyenne said with a sly smile, her


    exquisite face shimmering with a gentle glow under the sunlight, leaving people''s hearts in turmoil.


    Graeme nced onest time at Kate, not saying anything, but the resentment in his eyes couldn''t


    be hidden. He still med Kate.


    As Graeme was about to leave, Eddie suddenly stopped him. "Graeme, I have something to say to


    you. Do you have a moment to listen?"


    Their eyes locked, and an unspoken battle began between the two men. Eddie''s previously cheerful


    eyes had turned serious, sending a chill down anyone''s spine. Graeme stammered, "Wh-what do


    you want to say?"


    "Mr. Mathews, I would appreciate it if you could keep your distance from my sister in the future.


    She''s young and might have been misled by some external appearances. On her behalf, I apologize


    for what she did."


    Eddie''s voice remained gentle, but his eyes bore a piercing and chilling gaze as he extended a


    hand.


    Kate, listening to her brother, didn''t look at Graeme anymore. She bit her rosy lip and softly spoke,


    "Brother, I was wrong. There won''t be a next time."


    All those external allurements were like a mirage, vanishing as soon as you got close. Kate had


    realized that her biggest mistake in rtionships was thinking that her investments, in terms of


    emotions and money, should guarantee returns. If not, it would be deemed a failed transaction.


    When the other party gave you a slight taste of sweetness, the investor would continue to linger


    around, hoping for more.


    It seemed that Graeme, like a stock, had hit a limit down, and Kate had run out of patience. It was


    time to pull out.


    Graeme couldn''t quite put his finger on why he felt slightly unhappy. He had known Kate for a while,


    and she had been like a little shadow following him around for the past year. She added a touch of


    difference to his monotonous life, but if you asked him what was so special about Kate, he couldn''t


    come up with a convincing answer. It wasn''t as if he couldn''t live without her.


    Graeme had a cold and aloof demeanor because his maturity level had long surpassed that of his


    peers. He was already dabbling in entrepreneurship, juggling responsibilities between school and


    hispany. Whenever Peyton or Kate questioned him about his ideal partner, his internal


    response was - equally matched.


    What he truly desired was a partner who could grow alongside him and share the journey of


    entrepreneurship. That way, it would alleviate some of his pressure. Both Peyton and Kate seemed


    too immature and didn''t fit the criteria of his ideal partner.


    Aftering to this realization, Graeme turned and walked away, his slender figure receding into


    the distance.


    Kate suddenlyughed, and glistening teardrops fell from her eyes, catching Eddie off guard.


    His little sister, the Zamora family''s princess, had been deeply hurt by a man who seemed to be


    nothing.


    Graeme, you''re despicable!


    "Kate!"


    Kate wiped her tears and restored her radiant smile, pretending to be at ease. "Brother, I''m fine.


    Thanks to you, Mr. Owen, and Cheyenne today. Without you all, I would''ve suffered a great loss


    from that so-called pure and innocent woman."


    "You little brat, you should be grateful to me. Study well in the future."


    "Yes, Mr. Owen. I will study hard and make progress every day!"
