Pampered By Power: The True Heiress Returns

Chapter 360

The two girls were about to kneel, but Elysia quickly raised a hand to stop them. She raised an eyebrow and said, “You think kneeling will make me forgive you? Or are you just trying to grab attention and intimidate me?”

They immediately glanced around at the students walking by. Elysia’s words hit home. If they knelt, it would definitely draw unwanted attention from everyone.

That wasn’t their intention at all. They quickly dismissed the idea.

Then they stood up straight, panic creeping into their voices. “Sorry, Elysia, that’s not what we meant. We just wanted to ask for your forgiveness. We just forgot where we were.”

Seeing the sincerity in their eyes, Elysia couldn’t be bothered to make a scene. She had never really taken them seriously in the first place, and honestly, she hadn’t even remembered they were still around in the school.

The only reason they caught her attention now was because they tried to run when they saw her. That had raised her suspicions for a moment.

But now, as she studied them, Elysia figured that if they were really begging for forgiveness, she couldn’t just brush them off. After all, turning them away outright would make her seem heartless.

Sure, destroying a family might feel satisfying for a moment, but making too many enemies was never a good idea.

No one stayed on top forever.

Instead of a quick victory, it might be smarter to use these two women. She thought they might be useful down the road.

A small, almost playful smile curved at the corners of her lips, and her voice took on a teasing tone. “I can give you a chance, but there’s a condition…”

The two girls‘ eyes lit up at her first words, but as soon as they heard the rest, their excitement began to fade.

“What’s wrong? Not willing?” Elysia raised an eyebrow. “If you don’t want to, no problem. I could always get back at you for everything you’ve done to me.”

They froze for a moment, exchanging nervous glances. Then, quickly, they replied, “We’re willing. Just tell us what the condition is.”

Elysia tapped her chin thoughtfully, the playful glint in her eyes never fading. “The condition? Well, I haven’t decided yet. It’s on hold for now. But once I think of something, and you’ve done what I ask, I’ll forgive you.”

She turned as if to walk away, but then she paused and took a few steps back. “Oh, and let me remind you–until I officially forgive you, it would be smart to keep your heads down. Know what’s okay to do, and what’s not.”
