No matter how much Olivia Parker tried to persuade her brother, it was useless. In the end, she was completely disheartened, yet she still held onto a sliver of hope—hoping her brother could stand up again, stand before her once more, and protect her.
For this, she didn’t hesitate to roll her eyes at William Carter or even ignore him altogether. She wanted to awaken the blood and dignity of a boy in him!
This morning, Olivia Parker naturally heard about the two big rumors concerning William Carter. She didn’t care at all about whatever was going on between her brother and Grace Brooks, because even a fool knew there could never be any connection between them.
But when she learned that her brother had exploded in the dorm last night and hit someone, her eyes lit up!
Immediately after, she simply couldn’t believe it! Six years—was it possible? Her own brother was lucky not to be beaten up by others, let alone hit someone else?
But now, seeing that boy on the track, carrying a sandbag and running desperately, she believed it! She was excited, she was happy—how could she not be moved to tears?
The brother who could protect her, love her, and would risk everything to shield her from the wind and rain, had finally returned!
A handsome, elegant boy, dressed head to toe in designer brands, stood not far from Olivia Parker. His slightly wicked gaze was full of burning desire, greedily fixed on Olivia Parker as she leaned against the railing, crying.
He was in the same class as Olivia Parker, named Charles Evans, one of the four notorious playboys of Qingshui No.1 High School. But unlike the other three, his academic performance was outstanding.
Those who didn’t know him were often deceived by his good looks, graceful manners, dashing demeanor, and proud smile, thinking he was a refined gentleman in a troubled world.
At this moment, beside him stood a noble girl, also dressed in designer brands from head to toe, wearing high heels, with striking features, her face caked with foundation and lips painted with lipstick. She clung tightly to his arm, her gaze unblinkingly fixed on Olivia Parker.
This girl seemed to possess an innate sense of superiority. The look she gave Olivia Parker was full of disdain and contempt, her face openly displaying hatred and resentment.
All of this made one thing clear: she was jealous of Olivia Parker.
She was the third campus belle of Qingshui No.1 High School, named Anna Foster, the treasured daughter of the richest man in Qingshui City—the Foster Pharmaceutical Group. In terms of family background, although she couldn’t compare to the mysterious background of Grace Brooks, she was still considered quite prestigious in Qingshui City.
In short, Anna Foster was the quintessential rich, beautiful, and privileged girl.
Coincidentally, she and Olivia Parker were both assigned to Class 1 of Senior Year 3, and from that moment, her nightmare began!
Though also rated as one of the three great campus belles of Qingshui No.1 High School, she was always overshadowed by Grace Brooks and Olivia Parker. No matter how much she dressed up, she was still only recognized by all the boys as the “third” campus belle.
Anna Foster worked hard at her studies too, but no matter how hard she tried, she could never surpass Olivia Parker, who had held the top spot in the entire school since entering high school!
Grace Brooks’s mysterious family background was a given—Anna Foster knew she couldn’t compete and accepted it. But Olivia Parker came from such a poor family she couldn’t even afford a decent set of clothes—so why did she still have to be outshone by her?
And that wasn’t all. What drove Anna Foster most mad with jealousy was that the second-generation official Charles Evans, whom she had secretly liked since junior high, had publicly pursued Olivia Parker throughout the school. And after being rejected time and again, he only became more determined, persistently chasing Olivia Parker for two and a half years!
It wasn’t until senior year, pressured by the upcoming college entrance exams and realizing he had no hope with Olivia Parker, that Charles Evans finally gave up on her and accepted Anna Foster’s confession.
This love triangle, famous throughout Qingshui No.1 High School, had been one of the most talked-about pieces of gossip among teachers and students for the past three years!
Now, seeing Charles Evans, who had finally agreed to be her boyfriend, completely ignore her feelings and, right in front of her, stare at her archrival Olivia Parker as if possessed, the jealousy and resentment in Anna Foster’s heart toward her was obvious!
Anna Foster could no longer suppress the venom in her heart. Her eyes flickered, she glanced at the figure running slowly on the track, and a malicious smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. She deliberately mocked in a voice just loud enough for Olivia Parker to hear: “Charles, look at that stupid pig on the track, actually trying to lose weight in such a dumb way. It’s hilarious!”
At Qingshui No.1 High School, another piece of gossip that had been the talk of teachers and students for three years was that the absolutely proud and dazzling campus belle Olivia Parker had a bizarre half-brother, the good-for-nothing William Carter.
The younger sister had always been firmly ranked first in the school, while the brother had long since given up on his studies and was a total loser just waiting around for food and death!
“I really don’t know what’s the point of a useless loser like that, who only knows how to waste his life away. He might as well just die!”
As if she saw Olivia Parker’s delicate body tremble slightly, a look of satisfied triumph appeared on Anna Foster’s striking face, and she continued to fan the flames!
Anna Foster’s purpose in insulting William Carter to humiliate or provoke Olivia Parker was perfectly clear to Charles Evans, but he only frowned slightly, glanced down at her, and made no response.
