?Chapter 884:


    “So many families are eager to win Ellie’s favor.”


    “But if it weren’t for Kaiden and the Lambert family, who would even bother talking to Ellie? She’s so fortunate. She’s actually the youngest daughter of the Lambert family.”


    Aphrodite clenched her fists in frustration. As she was about to leave with her friends, she unexpectedly locked eyes with Ellie and Baylee.


    Driven by frustration, Aphrodite walked over. She walked past them and deliberately remarked loudly, “One uses her influence to bar someone from returning to her country, and the other only knows how to seduce men. Some women really doe in pairs.”


    Baylee’s expression suddenly turned icy. Without warning, she skillfully extended her foot.


    Aphrodite was tripped by Baylee andnded hard on the floor, wincing in pain. She had intended to provoke Baylee, but hadn’t anticipated being tripped up by her.


    “Aphrodite.”


    Aphrodite’s friend quickly helped her back up.


    “Why are you doing that, Baylee?” Aphrodite hissed. Her knees were scraped and bleeding, and her white dress was coated in dust.


    “Miss Watts, maybe you should watch where you’re going,” Baylee teased. “Or are you blind? After all, everyone online knows about what is going on between Ellie and Carole, while you are still using Ellie of using her influence.”


    “Baylee, what’s there to be proud of? You’re only here today because you’re riding on Marvin’s coattails. Do you really think Marvin cares about you? You’re just a pawn in his game against Quincy. You’ll regret it deeply someday.” Baylee tensed up momentarily.


    Before she could react, a figure swiftly darted past her.


    Ellie aimed a kick at Aphrodite’s knee and pressed down on her shoulder forcefully. Caught off guard, Aphrodite knelt down. Her friends beside her failed to lend support.


    “Aphrodite, you know perfectly well why Carole was expelled from the country. I haven’t settled the score with you yet. Why are you barking in front of Baylee?” Ellie’s tone was icy as she continued, “It’s about time you apologize to Baylee in person today.”

    Aphrodite attempted to move but found herself restrained by Ellie, unable to budge. She felt utterly humiliated, on the verge of tears.


    Suddenly, there was amotion.


    “Mr. Rollins, look, they’re bullying Aphrodite.”


    “Ellie, ease up before you go too far,” Quincy intervened, pushing Ellie away with one hand while helping Aphrodite with the other.


    Ellie’s wrist was grabbed, and she was pulled away from Aphrodite. Spotting Quincy, Ellie instinctively nced at Baylee, concerned about her reaction.


    Unaware, Ellie didn’t see Aphrodite swiftly pick up a wooden stick from the floor as she stood up. Without hesitation, Aphrodite swung the stick at Ellie.


    In that crucial moment, Baylee leaped towards Ellie.


    The thick stick struck Baylee’s back and thighs.
