To be honest, it’s the first time I’ve seen someone with such thick skin.
Her mouth twitched, but she didn’t step aside; instead, she gestured for me to look at her new car: “Really not going to try it out? I know your family probably has no shortage of sports cars, but mine is a limited edition custom from a 4S shop!”
Seeing the car, I couldn’t help but stare a bit.
Noticing the peculiar look in my eyes, Olivia Grant smugly said: “Olivia, why do you have that kind of look too? Aren’t you Ms. Grant’s daughter? You must have seen plenty of sports cars, right?”
I nodded earnestly: “Indeed, I think I’ve seen this car in my garage before.”
Olivia Grant’s face changed instantly, and she said angrily: “Don’t go too far, I may not have your family’s background, but I wouldn’t steal your stuff; why are you accusing me?”
I glanced at the license plate and confirmed it was my former car.
However, not sure how it ended up with Olivia Grant, I didn’t argue further with her.
After some thinking, I contacted the friend who shipped the car.
It turned out the car had been in an accident, and he sold it to a second–hand shop, where it was refurbished and sold again.
Olivia Grant had bought it in installments.
But according to my friend, the car was quite severely damaged initially, and he sold it as scrap metal.
If it was refurbished… the safety might not be that reliable.
The sycophants weren’t very likable, but they didn’t deserve to die.
After some thought, I sent a reminder message in the group: [The car is refurbished, it’s best not to drive it too fast.]
Unfortunately, it was still too late.
The car malfunctioned before it even left the campus, crashing into the trunk of a tree, and everyone ended up in the hospital.
Since she was in the driver’s seat, Olivia Grant was the most seriously injured, while the other roommates had varying degrees of injuries.
Olivia Grant’s parents still hadn’t shown up, so the other roommates‘ parents had to seek her out for medical expenses.
To my surprise, she actually blamed me for everything.

Just because of the message I sent in the group chat, she wanted to pin all the blame on me, saying I knew there was an issue with the car but didn’t warn them earlier.
In response, I chose to call the police.
Eventually, the police determined Olivia Grant was fully responsible and had to cover all the medical expenses of the roommates.
Olivia Grant even cried to the police about being broke, when suddenly Lily Carter, who was bandaged like a mummy beside her, shouted, “You have money to buy a sports car and luxury goods, but you can’t pay for medical expenses?”
“That’s all my money, why should I give it to you? Who told you to be vain and ride in my car? I haven’t even blamed you all for wrecking my car!” After tearing off her mask, Olivia Grant completely revealed her true colors.
Hearing this, Lily Carter’s father couldn’t help but slap her, “You wretched girl! Do you have the guts to say that again? You caused my daughter to get into a car accident and dare to say such things? Do you believe I won’t beat you to death?”
Olivia Grant’s parents still hadn’t arrived by now, clearly not caring about her.
Left without support, Olivia Grant could only cry after being hit, and the new counselor helplessly contacted her parents.
Not long after, Olivia Grant’s mother arrived–not a wealthy lady, nor a powerful woman.
Just an ordinary middle–aged woman.
As soon as she entered the hospital room, she slapped Olivia Grant and angrily scolded, “I’ll beat you to death, you little beast! I worked hard to earn money to send you to school, and you’re borrowing money everywhere to show off! You even stole my identity to borrow from loan sharks, and now my stall has been trashed, you think you can still go to school!”
Everyone was stunned.
Turns out Olivia Grant wasn’t some heiress, just an ordinary person addicted to flaunting
wealth.
Her father was a gambling addict who was beaten to death, and only her mother was left, earning a small amount from a stall to support her, while also repaying her father’s loans.
Those luxury goods were either second–hand or fakes, all bought by Olivia Grant through online loans. When her own borrowing limit was maxed out, she even secretly used her mother’s identity to take out loans.
In the end, her mother apologized to each of the parents, explaining that Olivia Grant had borrowed three million in loans outside, and that the family was indeed struggling. Only then did the other parents agree to delay seeking accountability.

A month later, Olivia Grant indeed dropped out of school, and before leaving, she even apologized to me and the roommates in front of the whole school, though it was anything but sincere.
After Olivia Grant left, the other roommates also gradually returned to school.
Not sure if they were afraid to face me or for some other reason, they all applied to the school to change dormitories.

During this time, Ethan Reeves changed his number and tried to contact me several times, but I blocked him each time.
I had given him a month’s deadline to pay back the money, but since he didn’t take it seriously, I directly asked a lawyer to sue him.
Unexpectedly, I ran into him on the playground that day.
The moment he saw me, Ethan Reeves‘ eyes lit up, and he immediately ran over to grab me.
He looked even more haggard than before, probably due to the lawsuit.
“Finally I see you, Olivia. I actually never forgot you. Even if you weren’t the daughter of the Calorus Group’s executives, I would’ve come looking for you. Otherwise, I’d have returned the money long ago.”
I frantically shook my hand as if I’d touched something dirty.
“You and Olivia Grant really are a match made in heaven, each as shameless as the other! Please
leave me out of your mess!”
Ethan Reeves tried to grab me again, but I quickly dodged: “Isn’t it just that you don’t want to return the money? I’ll give you a chance; as long as you stand at the school gate holding a sign that says you’re a scumbag for ten days, I won’t ask you for repayment.”
“Remember, it’s a thousand a day. Don’t even think about pestering me. My family lacks for nothing, including bodyguards. You can try coming near me again and see if you can keep your
hands.”
Ethan Reeves immediately withdrew his hand, his expression somewhat dissatisfied.
Later, the photos of Ethan Reeves holding the scumbag sign went viral on confession pages, even spawning various side trends. Previously deceived girls started exposing his misconduct
on those pages.
I only then discovered he had dated four girlfriends at the same time and caused two of them to have abortions. He borrowed money from each girlfriend without paying back–a true king of
scumbags.

As a result, Ethan Reeves became the target of universal disdain in school, eventually dropping out under the pressure.
But none of this had anything to do with me anymore.
When I went back for winter break, my mom came to pick me up from the airport.
Sitting in the passenger seat, I couldn’t help but joke, “Mom, are you sure you don’t have an illegitimate daughter? That girl really resembles you somewhat.”
My mom seemed to suddenly remember something, “Hmm, I think there is one!”
My face instantly changed as I watched my mom take out a photo of my brother cross–dressing: “Look, your brother’s new makeup look. Isn’t it prettier than you?”
Me: “…
