The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 769

"Who are you calling names?"

Fedelia shot Charlotte a glare, her neck craning forward as her voice rose, sharp and shrill.

"You," Charlotte replied, her pretty features cool as she arched a brow. Her eyes slid to the side. "And you too."

"You..."

Charlotte's expression turned cold. Mahoney hurried to tug Fedelia out of the way, giving her a meaningful look.

He forced a smile, swallowing his anger before he turned to Charlotte. "Charlotte, it was just a misunderstanding. I apologize on my wife's behalf."

Charlotte was the Gates family's princess, and her grandfather was the honorary president of Cabinda University. If Robert said the word, the university president would definitely do him a favor and Letty wouldn’t get expelled.

This was definitely not the time to piss her off.

Andrew and Parrish exchanged a glance, both a little lost.

Mahoney tried again, pushing through Charlotte's cold silence. "We came to Kingswood University today to see Stella," he said. "And also to apologize to you for Letty."

"Please, for Stella’s sake, help Letty this time."

Andrew rolled his eyes.

So all this talk about seeing Stella was just a cover for begging favors for Letty? Unbelievable.

"For Stella's sake?" Charlotte echoed, a lazy smile playing at her lips. She spoke slowly. "If I remember right, you sold Stella off to Lamplighter Village and left her to fend for herself. The Stella standing here now is my family. You didn't bother raising her or teaching her. Now you remember she exists?"

"You just want money, is that it?" Fedelia caught on to Charlotte's meaning and quickly turned to Stella. "If you let Letty off, whatever Stella wants, we'll give her."

Charlotte's smile disappeared. She spoke slowly and clearly. "You won't be able to handle the consequences. Just wait. This isn't over."

What consequences? None of them had any idea what Charlotte might do.

"Stella..." Mahoney finally turned to her, knowing he'd crossed the line with Charlotte. "Letty is your sister. Are you really happy to see her future ruined?"

Stella stopped walking. She turned around slowly, her eyes calm and steady as she looked at Mahoney.

"I am," she said, her red lips moving just enough for her cool voice to drift through the air. "Seeing her future ruined, watching the Adams family fall, watching you both suffer... My late mother and I can barely keep from laughing."

Andrew and Parrish couldn't help it. They burst out laughing.

"Letty's expulsion notice is coming down today. Stella and Charlotte won't help. What are we going to do?"
