The Second Life of a Discarded Heiress novel Chapter 454

“Did you guys watch the full video? It’s disgusting.”

“I knew these rich types were into twisted stuff.”

“Anyone got the link?”

“If you want the full video, DM me.”

“DM me, I’ll send it for free.”

“DM me, DM me.”

...

Aline and Dick scrolled through the comments beneath the video, trembling.

Both of them had always belonged to high society, and now, with their scandal exposed online for all to see, it was as if they’d been stripped naked for public ridicule. The shame was unbearable.

“We have no choice but to ask my brother for help now,” Dick muttered.

Without another word, he frantically called Talbot.

The moment the call connected, Dick barely had time to speak before an enraged voice exploded through the receiver. “You absolute idiot! How did our family even end up with someone like you? Do you have any idea how much damage you alone have done to Glenwood Group’s reputation? The stock’s in free fall, and the company’s social media is flooded with your sleazy photos with your wife. And you still have the nerve to call me?”

Dick rushed to apologize. “Bro… I’m sorry, I messed up. But the Glenwood family is powerful—you can fix this, I know you can.”

Talbot seethed with fury on the other end. Watching Glenwood Group’s stock price plummet, he wanted nothing more than to strangle his idiot brother.

And now Dick had the audacity to ask for help again.

Talbot’s tone was ice cold. “Do you know how many times I’ve had to clean up your messes over the years? How many times have you promised not to screw up again? And have you ever kept your word?”

Dick was desperate now, his voice cracking with panic. “Please, Talbot, I swear, this is the last time. Just help me one more time, I’m begging you.”

There was a long, heavy silence.

Opening her eyes, Jeanette saw the dorm room was empty.

Furious, she slammed a fist into her mattress before sitting up, muttering, “Those two didn’t even bother to wake me.”

She quickly got ready and headed toward her classroom, moving at her own pace. In the past, the teachers had always turned a blind eye to her behavior because of her family’s influence.

Jeanette swaggered into the classroom as usual, but this time, the teacher stopped her at the door.

“Jeanette, you missed your morning class today. That’s one unexcused absence.”

“Me?” Jeanette stared at the teacher in disbelief, almost thinking she’d misheard.

The female teacher’s voice was cold. “Yes, you. If you keep up this attitude, I suggest you start packing your things—you’ll be expelled if it happens again.”

The teacher glared at her with a look that barely concealed years of resentment. Jeanette had been the ringleader in humiliating her several times before, but the Glenwood family’s power had always forced her to swallow her pride. Now that Jeanette’s protection was gone, it was time for her to pay.
