Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

Chapter 463 do not open

…..

Kierra said, "If you need help, please come to me."

Esmeralda answered with a sweet smile, "Of course, don't worry."

They were just standing with each other, looking at the horses from far. It was relaxing seeing those beautiful animals grazing on the grass on the meadows that the Westburry family owned. If one wished to know how rich this family was, all they needed to do was visit the estate. They had their private meadows for the animals to graze. They had a private lake on the property. Not just this, they had a forest behind the house that belonged to them only. 

In short, Westburry family was richer than God, it seemed. 

She might have committed blasphemy by saying this but it was true. 

This house had everything. Like everything. 

Breaking the silence between them, Esmeralda said,"Liam was asking me about you."

Kierra looked at her, shocked and asked, "Was he?"

What was he telling her? 

She wanted to know. 

She wanted to know the exact conversation. 

Behave!

Can't be desperate for his attention. It was pathetic. 

There could never be anything between us. 

It was their fate. 

Esmeralda nodded her head. "What's going with you two?"

She just didn't want Kierra to get her heart broken by Liam. Liam was a sweetheart and she didn't want to see him becoming a bad guy in someone's story. It would be so bad for both of them. 

"Nothing!" Kierra said, very defensive. She softened her tone and said, "You know nothing can happen between us. He is Westburry."

Esmeralda reminded her, "So is Selene."

Kierra sighed and addee, "It's different with Selene."

"How so?" Esmeralda asked. 

Kierra stressed,"It is."

"Your brother is not going to break her heart, right?" Esmeralda asked. 

"He loves her but …"Kierra had no definite answer for her brother. Only he knew what intentions he had about Selene. But she could see that he was crazy for Selene. 

Esmeralda threatened, "Kierra, I will kill him if he hurts that girl."

She was not being mad at Kierra, this anger and threat was reserved for one many only. If Knoxx broke Selene's heart, no one would be able to save him from anyone's wrath. 

"Esme, my brother loves her but he obliges to our parents too much,"Kierra told her the truth, "If they have an adverse objection, I don't know what he will do. It's not just our parents that he has to fight against but the whole Westburry family."

Kierra could not take Knoxx's side here as she knew that her brother was a perfect son to her parents. He would not do anything that would hurt them. If they expressed their dislike for Selene, he would not go against them. He was too rational for a man who dared to love Selene Westburry. 

"What about you and Liam?"

"I am over that unrequited love."

"That's good. Liam is a good man. But is too scarred by his old love to give himself to anyone. I don't want you to a rebound. Or someone he is unsure about. You deserved to be loved beautifully."

After his conversation with Esmeralda, she went to Ronan. 

"You didn't give my best friend a hard time, did you?"

"She snitched on me."

"Shouldn't she?"

Ronan didn't look at her. 

"What are you doing, Ronan?"

"That woman is with Ethan for money."

"So what?"

"What do you mean?" "He is my brother and she is a gold digger."

"Do you think your brother is that dumb? Even if she is with him for money then what? Tell him to sign a tight prenup. What can she do? Currently, she is making your brother happy. Didn't you always wanted someone to come into Ethan's life? Now that someone is making him happy, why aren't you happy?"

"Because she is not Katherine."

"Ronan, they broke up a long time ago for a reason. I know she was good to you. She took care of you when you were little, it didn't mean you will be obsessed with her till now. Someone can be extremely good to you and not good for others."

"Why are you here, Kierra?"

"You put some shit in your head and not do something stupid."

"Come on, Ronan. You are already doing something very silly by taking revenge on Esmeralda."

"What would you do if in the end she turned out to be a genuine girl? How will you ask for forgiveness?"

"What if she is not?"

"What if she is? Don't cross so many lines that in the end you will not even have anything to ask for forgiveness."

"I am not in a mood for a moral lecture."

"Well, you will have to listen because lately you have been acting wrong."

"How are you calling me wrong when I am protecting my family?"

"Do you know she informed about Liam's surgery to everyone but me?"

"But she doesn't even know you, Ronan."

"I don't care!"

She pulled him for a hug. "I know it's hard for you but please go easy on everyone. Please open your heart a little. It is not bad to trust people a little."

"When everyone you trust scar you heart, you will know how difficult it is for someone to trust people." He said, hugging her back. While the two of them were hugging each other, someone was watching them from the window of his bedroom. 

.....

On the other hand, when Chairman Li was attending his relative's banquet, his daughter was working day and night for her victory against her father. 

"Mr Lu?" Amanda said, looking up at him. "I didn't think I would see you at the office this late."

"Well, I had important work, "Lu Zhaolin said. "I should ask you how is dealing with shareholders going?"

"How do you—"

"How do I know?" Lu Zhaolin asked. "I don't. I just assumed."

She stared at him. 

"CEO Li, unlike Chairman Li, you do not feel the need to follow the old traditions of morality. If you want something, you will get it by any means. You and the Chairman are very similar people. The only difference is that his dual personality comes behind people's back, yours is never hidden. Since I have worked with him for years, I could assume what you will be going next."

"Then, you will also know that I came to meet you?"

Lu Zhaolin just smiled.

"How many shares did you accumulate until now?" Lu Zhaolin asked. 

"Ten percent, "Amanda told him. She poured all her lifelong savings to buy those ten percent from the shareholders. 

"How?"

"I have my ways."

Lu Zhaolin nodded his head. "I assume that you want me to back you up with my 30 percent." 

"Well…"

"CEO Li, aren't you playing a hard game? Wanting to rule the company with just 10% shares by your side?"

"Mr Lu, people who dares to fight, wins the game. If you surrender your weapons even before starting, how will you dare to live? I want to survive the battle. So, I'm putting all my chips in the jar and hoping for a victory."

"I would just suggest that you to be beware of the consequences."

"If I start fearing consequences, I will never be able to move from the starting point."

"I hope this courage don't come to bite you in the end."

"I would suggest you to not put your chips in the single jar. If you fail, you won't be able to stand up, Miss Li."

"Your father is waiting 

I am over that unrequited love."

"That's good. Liam is a good man. But is too scarred by his old love to give himself to anyone. I don't want you to a rebound. Or someone he is unsure about. You deserved to be loved beautifully."

After his conversation with Esmeralda, she went to Ronan. 

"You didn't give my best friend a hard time, did you?"

"She snitched on me."

"Shouldn't she?"

Ronan didn't look at her. 

"What are you doing, Ronan?"

"That woman is with Ethan for money."

"So what?"

"What do you mean?" "He is my brother and she is a gold digger."

"Do you think your brother is that dumb? Even if she is with him for money then what? Tell him to sign a tight prenup. What can she do? Currently, she is making your brother happy.
