In her past life, at that extravagant banquet thrown by the Dalton family. Hailey had been humiliated and bullied by others.

Back then, she was a scared little mouse, too terrified to even think about standing up for herself.

The Dalton family members watched her suffer, and instead of offering help, they shamelessly berated her in front of all the guests.

From that moment on, the name Hailey Dalton became a running joke in Hallon City.

It was also at that same banquet where Selena, pretending to care, offered a few half–assed pleas for help.

Of course, it didn’t do a thing, but back then, Hailey, in her naive innocence, actually thought of Selena as a good sister and followed her around like a lost puppy.

As Hailey thought back to all that, a cold, deadly gleam flashed in her eyes.

She took her time walking over to a quiet corner, sipped her orange juice, and after finishing half of it, grabbed a delicate piece of cake.

Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed a few guys heading her way

Here they come.

Knowing full well that the ballroom wasn’t the right place to deal with this, Hailey deliberately stood up and started heading toward a quieter part of the venue.

The three guys immediately followed her.

The place was huge, and tucked away at the back was a small pool. The area around the pool was surprisingly quiet, a sharp contrast to the chaos and noise in the main hall.

Hailey casually walked toward the poolside. The men picked up the pace, quickly catching up with her.

“Hey, Miss Dalton, one of them called out.

Hailey turned around. pretending to be confused, her face innocent as she asked, “What do you want?*

The guys blocked her path, and one bold jerk reached out to touch her shoulder.

Hailey effortlessly dodged his disgusting hand, acting shocked as she asked, “What the hell are you guys trying to do?”
