Chapter 188
Tiffany wore a knowing smile as she took in the scene. The blockade was quite impressive. Several stern-looking, muscular bodyguards accompanied Wendy, besides two assistants serving her and holding an umbrella for shade. The group effectively surrounded her.
Wendy sneered. “Last time in Traron City, I let you off because you had Richard backing you. But this time, if you dare to ruin my plans, I’ll ensure you learn a lesson.”
She came to the audition brimming with confidence, convinced that the role was hers. But to her surprise, she was rejected. Thinking back to Oliver’s impatient demeanor, she was confident that Tiffany had said something behind her back to tarnish her reputation.
With old grievances and new grudges combined, Wendy raised her hand and commanded, “Go hold her down!”
“Understood!” The bodyguards responded immediately, getting ready to take action.
Even though Wendy was a public figure, no one was around. Moreover, the Trujillo family was influential enough to cover up any incidents that might arise, so they felt no hesitation in resorting to violence.
Tiffany chuckled, lazily glancing at them. “Is that all? It’s not even enough to practice on.”
The arrogance in her words was palpable. Without needing any command from Wendy, several bodyguards grabbed Tiffany by the shoulders immediately. Once they had her firmly restrained, it wouldn’t matter how Wendy chose to deal with her- Tiffany would be unable to fight back and could only endure the bullying.
However, just as the lead bodyguard reached out, he was suddenly met with a more potent force restraining him. He looked up in shock at Tiffany, stammering, “You…”Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Before him stood Tiffany, smiling gently. Her breathtaking beauty was vivid and captivating, yet her intense energy was fearsome, evoking an unsettling presence.
He tried to break free from the grip, but Tiffany applied more pressure, and the sound of cracking bones echoed along with a wave of intense pain.
“Ah!” With three fingers hanging limply, the bodyguard let out a cry of pain and stumbled back, falling to the ground.
The other bodyguards rushed in, but one was kicked away while another was punched into the ground. Amidst the cries of agony, the five burly bodyguards lay scattered on the ground, writhing in pain.
Tiffany stood confidently in place, her presence commanding and regal. With a casual flick to brush off nonexistent dust from her sleeve, she said, “Who’s next? Is it you?”
“No…” Wendy stumbled back, overwhelmed by fear. She thought, ‘This woman is truly terrifying!’
The strikes came with lightning speed. Although everything unfolded before her eyes, Wendy couldn’t see how Tiffany made her moves. All she heard were the cries of agony as her once-proud bodyguards fell one after another-wholly defenseless and unable to withstand a single blow.
Wendy stumbled back, her assistants trembling beside her in fear, worried they might get caught in the crossfire. After a

She thought, ‘Leave?’ Tiffany smiled enigmatically and replied, “Oh, that wouldn’t do at all.
“How about this? I won’t make things difficult for you. If you apologize to me, I’ll forgive your foolishness today. Fair enough, right?”
Upon hearing this, Wendy nearly bit her teeth in frustration. Even though she had initially sought trouble with Tiffan
turned out that Tiffany emerged unscathed while her bodyguards were left battered and bruised. There was no reason for her to be the one to apologize,
Wendy’s expression darkened as she snapped, “Absolutely not!”
Tiffany sighed and said, “Alright, I won’t push you.”
She seemed ready to let it go and didn’t want to drag things out. Wendy was taken aback, not expecting Tiffany to be so accommodating.
As she breathed relief, Tiffany casually continued, “If you won’t, then I will, after all…” As she spoke, Tiffany smiled, her bright eyes glimmering with a hint of mischief. “After all, forcing an apology is something I enjoy the most.”
Wendy was speechless; she thought, ‘Is she a devil?’ Tiffany stride toward her, exuding a fierce determination that indicated she was serious about forcing an apology.
A chill ran down Wendy’s spine as she quickly made her decision. “It was my mistake; I shouldn’t have caused you After briefly pausing, she gritted her teeth and added, “I’m sorry…” For now, she chose to swallow her pride.
Tiffany seemed satisfied and casually dismissed her, saying, “Alright, you can leave now.”
trouble.”
Tiffany’s tone felt dismissive as if treating Wendy as insignificant, which only fueled Wendy’s anger. However, she could do nothing.
With so many of her people unable to match Tiffany’s strength, Wendy had no choice but to leave in defeat. Meanwhile, the remaining bodyguards struggled to get up from the ground and headed to another vehicle, collectively heading to the hospital. Their situation was quite pitiful.
Tiffany glanced at the time and, deciding not to head to school or home just yet, resolved to stop at Luna Villa. As she was about to get into her car, a vehicle passed. Through the slightly open window, she caught a fleeting glimpse of a profile in the back seat, an image that left her momentarily intrigued.
It was a beautiful young girl radiating a gentle yet ethereal aura, as if untouched by the world’s impurities.
Tiffany froze for a moment, her heart suddenly racing. She thought, ‘Melody Princeton?’
The girl in the car was undoubtedly Melody. In her previous encounter, Kenneth truly cherished Melody, aside from Sandra, who was his other significant love.
At that time, Melody transferred to Lovell School, captivating countless admirers, including Kenneth. The two shared a deep affection for each other and had an excellent relationship. However, for reasons unknown, Melody ended up coinmitting murder.
When Kenneth learned the news, he went to great lengths to suppress the incident, trying every possible way to clear Melody’s name. However, at that time, Melody suggested finding someone with a similar build to take the blame for her. This way, she would no longer have to live in fear.
Kenneth, being the typical lovestruck fool, was utterly smitten with Melody. So, he saw no issue with her plan and readily agreed to it.
Tiffany smiled, her eyebrows lifting mockingly.
Then Kenneth found her and promised that if Tiffany helped take the blame for Melody, he would marry her according to their engagement on the day she was released from prison. She agreed, and that was when the tragedy began.
According to this timeline, it wouldn’t be long before Melody appeared as a transfer student. It was uncertain whether she would commit murder again this time, but if she did, Kenneth would likely try to take the blame for her once more. Tiffar smirked at the thought; she had been foolish to agree to such an absurd condition.
Looking back, it was clear that Melody had come up with that idea with malicious intent. She was likely connected to Sandra, as the Kelley family had fallen apart after her imprisonment in her previous encounter. Furthermore, only Sandra and Melody had laughed triumphantly while the Kelley family faced one disaster after another.
Tiffany’s gaze grew increasingly cold. She thought that none of these people would escape.
