Chapter 104 Once You Figure It Out, We Can Talk Properly
Yosef wore a helpless expression, acting pained and distressed.
“Melissa, this is indeed your fault. You injured six students today, so perhaps it’s best for you to withdraw from
school and rest at home for the time being.”
Luciana crossed her arms and sneered. “Not just that. She must be expelled! And after she’s expelled, I’ll sue her
for physical assault! She hit six girls today, and we’ll all sue her together!”
Meanwhile, Freya finished watching the whole show.
Then, she patted the excited Melissa on the shoulder and stood up.
“Mrs. Wallace, you want to sue us?”
“Yeah, but I can consider not suing you as long as you make your little cousin kneel down to apologize to my
daughter!”
Freya smirked. Her eyes were filled with iciness. “How long do you and your daughter want her to kneel down for?”
“Until we’re satisfied,” answered Luciana with a smug smile.
Cher held her mother’s arm and raised her chin.
As Freya curved her lips into a sinister smile, she mocked, “Mrs. Wallace, your daughter’s lack of intelligence can
bring trouble to your entire family.”
Cher knew that she was only assaulted because she provoked Melissa by insulting Freya.
Yet, Cher never thought to explain the situation to her mother and only wanted to vent her anger.

At the sight of Cher’s smugness, Freya couldn’t help but get amused. Maybe Cher isn’t just trying to vent her anger
but is genuinely stupid.
Luciana sat down with her daughter and sneered. “You can kneel now.”
Cher’s friends all looked complacent.
Freya let out a sigh and used her phone to play the surveillance footage.
In the video, Cher was screaming sharply. “Freya Kaufmann is a slt. She’s a divorced woman who’s abandoned by
her man. Now, she’s shamelessly seducing Edward. Doesn’t she realize she’s three years. older than him? I bet
when she gets old, she’ll be an insatiable rich old lady who sleeps with gigolos every day!”
The atmosphere in the office froze.

Luciana frowned and looked at Yosef.
Seeing the video on Freya’s phone, Yosef asked, “How did you get the surveillance footage?”
Just then, Cher lunged toward Freya to grab the phone but was shoved aside.
The video continued being played. Melissa and Hannah were passing by when they overheard Cher. The three
immediately got into an argument.
Soon, Cher was pointing her finger right at Melissa’s face. “I’m the daughter of the Wallace family. How dare you
insult me?”
The conflict became intense, and Melissa attacked Cher out of anger.
Watching the tape, Luciana grew furious and questioned, “Did you hire someone to hack into the school’s server?”
Freya smiled faintly at Luciana. Her eyes were devoid of any warmth though.
They stared at each other for a full minute.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Luciana’s mind, and she fell silent.
What’s the name of the woman whom Cher was cursing in the video? Freya Kaufmann, is it?
In Caltun, Freya Kaufmann is….
Instantly, Luciana’s face turned pale, and she turned to look at Melissa.
Luciana had been fearless earlier because there were no affluent families in Caltun with the surname
‘Marshall.’
So, she assumed that Melissa was just another country bumpkin who came from the rural to study at Evergreen
University.
But now, everything clicked into place in her mind.
Sylvia Marshall from the Kaufmann Group is a Marshall!
Freya Kaufmann must come from the Kaufmann family in Caltun.
And the Marshalls are from Vroria.
Upon connecting all the dots, Luciana felt that her legs had gone weak. A coldness spread from her body to her
fingertips.
Just then, Freya sounded. “Mrs. Wallace, have you figured it out yet? Once you do, we can talk properly.”
Luciana tightly held onto her clutch.
Meanwhile, Cher was still clueless. With her chin raised arrogantly, she had been waiting for Melissa to kneel down
to her. But now, she frowned.
“Mom, what’s wrong?”
“Shut up,” Luciana hissed with her voice lowered.
The color drained out of Cher’s face.
At the same time, Yosef had also figured it out. He was a shrewd man who knew about every wealthy family in
Caltun like the back of his hand.

“Ah, you must be Miss Kaufmann from the Kaufmann Group. I apologize for the rudeness earlier, Yosef said with an
awkward smile. “The staff who went to check the surveillance just now must have made a mistake. I will definitely
give him a good scolding later!”
Freya didn’t comment on that. She had no time for Yosef.
Looking at Luciana, she demanded, “Expel Cher Wallace and make the other five withdraw from school. Otherwise,
we’ll see you all at the court.”
Luciana clenched her hands.
Freya held the evidence that it was Cher who initiated the conflict.
Besides, even if Melissa really beat Cher for no reason, the Wallaces wouldn’t dare to say a word.
The Marshalls from Vroria plus the Kaufmanns in Caltun had taken up half of the business industry in the
country.
The Wallaces’ business was equivalent to a small workshop in their eyes, and they could crush it with just a snap of
their fingers.
“Okay, I’ll go and handle the paperwork right away,” Luciana agreed through gritted teeth.
Instantly, Cher became agitated. “Mom, what are you talking about? Why do I have to drop out of school?”
Luciana was quite furious. Because of her habit of praising the strong and belittling the weak, she understood well
what power could do.
“Shut up, unless you want to drag the whole Wallace Co. down with you!”
Coldly, Freya insisted, “I said to expel Cher.”
On the side, Yosef was trying to make up for his mistake.”Cher, I was too trusting of you. If I hadn’t seen Miss
Kaufmann’s video, I would have been fooled by you. How can you bully the daughter of the Marshalls from Vroria?

Aren’t you worried that the Marshalls are gonna hold you accountable?”
The daughter of the Marshalls from Vroria?
Melissa, who always wears sportswear, is a Marshall?
When Cher realized that, her face turned pallid, and she stared at Melissa in shock.
Melissa just crossed her arms and sat beside Freya, glaring back coldly.
Finally, the conflict was resolved, and Yosef was about to smooth things over when he noticed someone standing by
the window near the office entrance.
Radley had watched the entire event by now.
Originally, he planned to come only when Freya couldn’t solve the problem. After all, she was now guarded against
him and wouldn’t appreciate him intervening in her family’s affairs.
However, Radley saw the video that Hannah had sent him.
In the video, Luciana was pointing at Freya and her cousin, calling them orphans.
Once You Figure It Out, We Can Talk Properly
A surge of anger rose in Radley’s chest, and he stormed into the office with a cold look.
Both Yosef and Luciana recognized him instantly. They were stunned for a moment.
Soon, Yosef reacted and stepped forward to greet, “Mr. Monaghan, you’re here! Don’t worry. Miss Monaghan isn’t
hurt. And of course, no one would dare to blame her!”
Radley walked to Hannah’s side and took the phone from her hand.
Then, he played the video.
The conversation between Luciana and Freya carlier was being replayed in the room.
“Mrs. Wallace, you want to sue us?”
“Yeah, but I can consider not suing you as long as you make your cousin kneel down to apologize to my daughter.”
“How long do you and your daughter want her to kneel down for?”
“Until we’re satisfied.”
After the video finished playing, the atmosphere became silent, and Luciana’s hands were trembling slightly.
Radley put the phone back into his sister’s hand and observed her face. “Are you hurt?”
Just as Hannah wanted to shake her head, she received a look from her brother’s calm gaze.
She nodded and extended her arm to reveal a small scratch mark. “Yes, Cher did this!”
Cher’s eyes widened and she shouted in anger, “You’re talking nonsense! This is clearly a new mark!”
