Thorne’s eyes were filled with hatred. “Aren't you afraid I'll get back at you? Given the Rosewood family’s status

in Sivro, you're no match for the Ludwig family!”

Elysia chuckled at his words. “You do what you want at school, disrespecting everyone around you, all because

you have the Ludwig family as your backing. However, deep down, you're just a loser. You have no real skills.

“You're feeling too good about yourself.” Elysia paused for a moment before continuing, “As for the Rosewood

family, whether we rise or fall isn’t for you to decide.”

She couldn't care if the Ludwig family decided to go after the Rosewood family. After all, the fate of the

Rosewoods wasn't her problem. What mattered to her was who would bring the family down in the end.

She had a score to settle with the Rosewood family, and it was something she intended to finish herself.

The cold glint in Elysia’s eyes sent a sharp pain to Thorne’s chest. He told himself that Elysia was bluffing and

that once he got back, he would tell his father, who would take care of everything. When that happened, Elysia

would beg for mercy.

Emma had already stepped down from the audience seats. She had been waiting to see Elysia humiliated by

Thorne, but to her surprise, things didn’t go as expected. Elysia actually dared to strike back. This was

something she had never anticipated.

Although she didn’t get to see Elysia’s downfall, at least Thorne hadn't gained the upper hand, and for that,

Emma felt a sense of satisfaction.

As for Elysia, now that she had angered the Ludwig family, Emma was certain that Scott wouldn't let her off

easily. He would probably get upset and even disown her.

The thought of Elysia being cast out, just like she once had, filled Emma with an uncontrollable sense of joy.

However, as she approached Thorne, she quickly wiped away her smile, replacing it with a concerned

expression. “Are you alright?”

As she reached out to help Thorne up, she accidentally brushed against his injured hand. The pain shot through

Thorne’s hand, and without thinking, he shoved Emma away with his other hand. “Don’t touch me!”

Emma staggered back, almost falling, but thanks to Ben's quick reflexes, he caught her just in time, helping her

regain her balance.

She glared at Thorne, her hatred growing. Not only was he unattractive, but his temper was unbearable.

Although these thoughts raced through her mind, she still maintained a pitiful expression, the kind that would

make anyone feel sorry for her. “Thorne...”

Elysia

watched the performance unfolding with a smirk. She wasn’t a fool-many things could be figured out with just a

little thought. If she wasn’t mistaken, it seemed like everything had been carefully orchestrated by Emma from

the very beginning

As for the person who had reported Elena and spread these rumors... Elysia turned her gaze toward the

audience, her eyes landing on Bianca. She thought, “What a naive girl! She’s been used without realizing it‘

Bianca noticed Elysia’s gaze and quickly turned her head away. Unfortunately, her frantic attempt to avoid

Elysia’s eyes only confirmed Elysia’s suspicions.

Elysia smirked, her gaze turning back to Emuna with a mocking expression. “How does it feel being used?”

At these words, Emma clenched her fists tightly, and she let out an angry scream. “Then give everything back to

me!”

Realizing she had let something slip, however, she quickly covered her mouth, regretting her outburst. In her

anger, she had unintentionally revealed too much.

Everyone around them exchanged curious glances and stared at Emma in confusion. They didn’t fully grasp the

meaning behind the words, but one thing was clear-the conversation between the two of them seemed strangely

mysterious.

They thought, ‘What did Elysia mean? Does Emma owe her anything? Though they were baffled, they were even

more shocked by the sudden change in Emma’s usual gentle demeanor. This wasn’t the kind of behavior they

were accustomed to from her.

Elena, however, caught the underlying meaning and immediately understood the subtle plot at play. It was clear

that there were ill intentions behind Emma’s actions. Elena was relieved she hadn't taken the position after all.

Elysia sneered, letting go of the mocking tone in her voice. Emma was clearly enjoying this little game, so Elysia

decided to join her and make it more interesting.

She stepped closer to Emma, her eyes icy cold. “I have always believed in fair play. Since you've crossed me,

you'll have to face the consequences.”

She reached out and grabbed Emma's wrist. Feeling the pain, Emma panicked and cback to her senses.

Desperately, she tried to pull her hand away, her tears streaming down her face as her voice quivered with fear.

“What do you want to do?”

“Why are you so nervous? | just wanted to shake your hand. Don’t worry, it'll be over soon.” Elysia said with a

cold smile, her grip tightening as she twisted Emma’s wrist backward. Emma screamed in agony, clutching her

hand. “Stop! My hand is broken!”

She cried out pitifully, but no one around her cto her aid. In a panic, she shouted, “Aren’t any of you going

to do something? She broke my hand!”

Elena looked at Emma's distress and cleared her throat. “Any witness?”

Ben was the first to respond. “We only saw Elysia and you shaking hands. We didn’t see her break your hand.”

“We didn’t see it either. Emma, are you sure you're not mistaken?” another person added.

Emma froze, realizing that everyone around her was on Elysia’s side. No one would speak up for her, and even if

she exposed this incident, no one would believe her. It was clear-she was going to suffer in silence.

Elysia raised an eyebrow with a teasing smile. “Did you hear that?”

Emma bit her lips, not saying a word. It was only when Thorne shouted angrily, “Get over here and help me,

now!” that she quickly rushed to assist him. Before leaving, Thorne shot a vicious glare at Elysia and snarled, “I'll

cback!”

The crowd in the audience let out a long sigh of relief. Elysia’s bold move had truly left them on edge.

However, seeing Thorne get a taste of defeat brought a sense of satisfaction. After all, he was known for bullying

others, and no one had ever dared stand up to him. They had been trying not to piss him off, and today, they felt

relieved. They couldn’t help but admire Elysia’s bravery-she was the first person in the school to dare confront

Thorne like this. Bianca was stunned by Elysia’s boldness. Thinking back to when Thorne had hurt her foot, she

had been too afraid to speak up. However, Elysia not only spoke her mind, but she also turned the tables and

taught Thorne a lesson.

At that moment, Bianca couldn't help but feel small, realizing how cowardly she had been. Her gaze shifted to

the back of Justin, and a pang of sadness filled her chest. She thought, ‘Do I really suck?

Elysia shone like a star, and no matter where she was, she always shone. As for her, she was someone who could

easily slip into darkness with a single misstep.

Although she didn’t want to admit it, it was the harsh truth she couldn't escape, no matter how hard she tried.
