Pampered By Power: The True Heiress Returns

Chapter 155

After a moment of inner turmoil, Natalie reluctantly returned to her seat. Emma had dashed outside, but no one followed her, causing Emma to slow down.

Frustration gnawed at her. While she despised Elysia, she also felt a mix of resentment toward Natalie and Mia. In that moment, her friends were strangely quiet, offering no words of comfort.

Once she had let out her frustrations, a cold clarity settled in. She could not let Elysia benefit from her hard work. “Why should Elysia enjoy the fruits of my struggle?

Emma nodded, frustration evident on her face. “Yes, she is my sister, but she treats me with no respect, frequently bullying me. Now she dares to plot against you.”

Before Emma could finish, Bianca interrupted sharply, “What do you mean by plot?”

Recognizing that she had captured Bianca’s attention, Emma felt a rush of satisfaction, though she kept her face calm
