Chapter 42

    "Ha! You think I care!" Darcy gritted her teeth, trying to act tough.


    She took off the earrings and threw them onto the ground.


    L lifted her gaze, her eyes showing a trace of mockery. "I remember sayingst time that if you really had any guts, you would throw away everything I ever bought for you."


    Ignoring Darcy''s sour expression, she added, "I willingly gave those to you in the first ce, so if you throw them away, you don''t need to pay me back."


    Darcy gritted her teeth, her eyes nearly bulging out.


    She felt dazed for a moment. Did L really want to break up with Dorian? Otherwise, how could she dare to offend her like this?


    L''s gazended on her. Darcy was truly arrogant, domineering, and materialistic!


    Darcy went to great lengths to unt her connection to Dorian at school, practically branding it on her forehead daily.


    Dorian presented himself as a well-off young man, leading others to believe he came from a wealthy family. Naturally, Darcy''s ssmates assumed she was born rich as well.


    But in reality, the ke family had little money, and Darcy had even less.


    Most of the designer bags, clothes, and jewelry she owned over the years were bought by L.


    Darcy''s face turned ashen. ncing at the drinks on the ground, she felt a pang of pain at the thought that the money spent on those should have been for her. "L, don''t get carried away! Are you not afraid I''ll tell Dorian? Aren''t you worried he''ll find out how sharp-tongued you are and end up hating you?"


    Darcy thought momentarily and dismissed the idea that L genuinely wanted to break up.


    L was still keeping Alex froming to teach her, and these days, she had frequently hovered around Dorian, intentionally sidelining Zara and preventing her from getting that big movie role.


    Wasn''t it all just to attract Dorian''s attention and force him to make up with her?


    She was convinced that Dorian, being such a catch, was someone L would never want to let go.


    Jamie couldn''t hold back any longer. "Oh, so you''re the only one with a mouth? Didn''t you see the cameras over there? Do you want me to have someone grab the footage and post it online, exposing you as this crazy woman?"


    That remark truly hit Darcy where it hurt. She cared deeply about her image.


    She clutched her bag tightly and was ready to throw it, but someone grabbed her wrist.


    Darcy turned around to find Dorian''s assistant, which further fueled her anger. "How dare you stop me?"


    He lowered his head slightly. "I wouldn''t dare. Mr. ke asked me to tell you to stop making a scene and to go back to school immediately to prepare for graduation."


    "How can I prepare when Ms. Parker isn''t evening anymore? What am I supposed to prepare for?" she yelled.


    Darcy became even angrier when the graduation was mentioned, feeling like her lungs might explode.


    She cast a sinister nce at L, wishing she could tear her to pieces immediately.


    However, since Dorian had just sent a message, she didn''t dare to cause any more trouble.


    L watched as they turned to leave.


    The assistant smiled at her politely. He thought about speaking up but chose to walk away in silence.


    Jamie lowered her gaze, returning to her usual quiet and gentle demeanor.


    "L, is Dorian asking Darcy to stop means he''s helping you?" Teddy looked puzzled.


    Jamie immediately switched back to her feisty self, retorting, "With his twisted reasoning, how could he be helping L? He''s clearly just afraid that if this blows up, it''ll ruin his reputation as a movie star!"


    Teddy was stunned.


    "Ms. Hart, it seems Dorian wants you back. A big shot like him came specifically to ask you. Will you go back?"


    Jamie shot a fierce re at the foolish Teddy, pulling him away. "Are you really that dumb? Look at Dorian''s attitude. If Ms. Hart goes back, she''ll only be wronged. Just drop it!"


    Teddy dared not to bring up the topic again.


    His expression resembled that of a wronged puppy when he looked at Jamie.


    Where did his sweet sister go?


    He wanted her to switch back!
