Meanwhile, Raven, Maris, and Lilian, all dressed in their uniforms, walked out of the dormitory. However, they hadn''t taken more than a few steps when they began to hear whispers around them.


    Soon, Lilian strode over to a rather attractive girl and said coldly, "Repeat what you just said,"


    The girl was clearly not someone to be trifled with. Upon hearing Lilian''s words, she let out a soft, mockingugh. "Does this tramp really think she can seduce Preston? President Monroe should expel her and-"


    But before she could finish, a p resounded sharply across her face. In an instant, everyone around them held their breath.


    The next moment. Lilian''s voice, colder than ice, rang out sharply. "From now on, anyone who disrespects Raven is my enemy."


    The surrounding students were utterly shocked and dumbfounded.


    They thought to themselves, ''Has Lilian gone mad? She''s the heiress of the Hartman Group, one of the top families in Regalhold. And she''s standing up for a poor, scheming girl who''s on a schrship?


    Is she stupid or just overlypassionate? Could it be that in such a short time, Raven has managed to turn Lilian against Maris and onto her side?!


    Before anyone could recover, Brianna''s voice, dripping with sarcasm and disdain, suddenly cut through the air. "Miss Hartman, you really think you''re something, don''t you?"


    When


    the students saw Brianna, they felt a sense of vindication.


    Although Brianna''s family background wasn''t as impressive as Lilian''s, she was the best friend of Kurt''s granddaughter. m


    Anyone who crossed Brianna was expelled from Regalhold University.


    Lilian let out a cold sneer upon seeing Brianna. "Miss Louis, you tter me. You''re th


    the one with the real power here." However, Brianna merely nced at her dismissively before turning her icy, menacing gaze on Raven.


    With a dark expression, Brianna stared at Raven and said, "If you don''t want me to spill the dirt about you and Rhea''s ex-boyfriend, get out of Regalhold University right now. Otherwise, you''ll regret the day you were born."


    Almost everyone''s eyes widened in unison, ''Raven not only tried to seduce Preston but also had some shady dealings with Rhea''s boyfriend? If Rhea finds out, she''s done for, they thought.


    Given Rhea''s temperament, they couldn''t even begin to imagine the miserable fate that awaited Raven


    Raven looked at Brianna, a sh of coldness flickering in her eyes. She stared straight at Brianna and said, “I''d like to know what dirty business there is between Caleb and me


    Brianna''s eyes grew even colder as she looked at Raven. "You don''t want to leave gracefully, do you?"


    Before Raven could respond, Brianna''s boyfriend, Jaxton, looked down at her and said. "You can stay, but let me give you a friendly warning.


    "Every year during the school''s basic training, a few freshmen end up in the hospital from the rigorous training."


    He added, "In the uing basic training, my friend''s older brother is one of the instructors. If you don''t want to be sent to the hospital because the training load is too much, apologize to Brianna right now."
