Chapter 637: Divergent Thoughts of Stephanie and Grace
Grace screamed in terror, "Are you insane? You're still in the car, Stephanie!"
Desperate, Grace almost jumped out of the car, but she lacked the courage.
As the car neared the end of the mountain road, Grace curled up in the back seat in fear.
With a screech, the tires grated against the asphalt. Grace's head slammed into the seat, her forehead quickly turning purple.
Stephanie sighed deeply, turning back to mock Grace, "Now you're scared, huh?"
"Just go die on your own, don't drag me into it!" Grace yelled, hurling her purse at Stephanie, striking her in the face.
Stephanie, now more protective of her face, immediately grabbed Grace's hair, "You dare harm my face? Maybe you don't want yours either!" Grace screamed.
The two women fought in the car, exchanging blows and pulling hair.
It was quite the spectacle.
The fight only ended when they were both too exhausted to continue, both panting and covered in bruises, neither having gained the upper hand.
Grace touched up her makeup in the mirror, "If you had swallowed vitamins, Tina would have noticed. She's Spectre, and now with a do-it-all mom, those two are sharper than anyone. You'd be the first to die if it got out." "And you couldn't tell me before? I swallowed a whole bottle! You must really want me dead!" Stephanie retorted bitterly.
Grace, tired of arguing, said, "I'll be transferring to Ashbury soon. Remember, you'll need to play along with me in a few more scenes."
Stephanie snorted and started the car to leave.
If not for revenge, she would never continue to entangle with Grace.
Once the revenge was complete, she vowed to be the first to throw this wretch and Tina into the sea!
Grace, glancing at Stephanie driving, harbored similar murderous thoughts.
Both harbored deadly intentions towards each other.
After returning from the Pace family, Tina had dropped Natalie back at the Brookes family and then went to Kongham University.
Classes at Kongham University had just ended, and the campus was bustling with vibrant college students-some exercising, others in romantic conversations.
Only Lysander was left in his dorm, bombarding Orson with complaints.
"When are you leaving? Don't you have your own place to live? If you're staying tonight, where should I go?"
Lysander was fed up. His dorm was seldom his own anymore; Orson was almost a permanent guest.
Orson, watching the latest sports season on his tablet, paid no heed to Lysander's ranting.
"Come on, hit him! My god, what an idiot to even be in the competition!"
Lysander was about to explode when his phone rang; it was Tina.
Seeing Tina's name instantly dissolved his anger.
He was staying at school today specifically because Tina mentioned she would come to visit.
"Tina, have you arrived?" He picked up the call, grabbed a cake from the fridge, and dashed out, giving Orson no chance to respond.
Orson sat up in bed, pondering Lysander's words, then quickly dialed Jared.

Downstairs at Kongham University.
Tina sat on the steps by the playground, observing the bustling youths.
When Tina attended Kongham University at sixteen, her classmates thought she was too young and kept their distance, and she had always preferred to be alone.
Looking back now, college life really was mundane.
"Tina!" Lysander ran over, carrying a strawberry cake. Sweat beads covered his forehead, and although the cake remained intact, a strawberry had fallen off. "Here's your strawberry cake."
Tina took the cake and glanced at the fallen strawberry. "How come your skills haven't improved? You can't even run a short distance without dropping a strawberry?"
Hearing the tone in Tina's voice, Lysander grew nervous. "Sorry, Tina, I'll be more careful next time."
"It's not about being careful; you need to realize that the enemies you'll face in the future are the elite of the elite. A slight mistake could be fatal. If you continue half-heartedly like this, you'll eventually fall by an enemy's blade!" Tina chastised Lysander. It wasn't that she was too harsh, but after Lysander became the head of the Emerson family, he had become a thorn in the side of the GTO.
In recent times, the Mountain Veil Order had expended considerable effort to eliminate the risks left by Hawk.
If Lysander couldn't take control of the Emerson family soon, he would eventually be swallowed by the family's turmoil.
He had always relied on the Mountain Veil Order's support, making him nothing more than a puppet emperor, unfit for great responsibility.
Lysander bowed his head, a flash of guilt in his eyes. "Sorry, I know I was wrong."
Tina sighed. "Forget it, you're still young. I'll have Jayden intensify your training. If I see you like this again, don't bother coming to see me."
"No, the next time I see you, Tina, I will have surpassed Jared," Lysander blurted out in his anxiety.

Lysander's gaze was resolute, more serious about surpassing Jared than anything else. Tina did not dampen his enthusiasm. "Keep it up, our Uncle is not so easy to surpass." Our family, Uncle.
Lysander pursed his lips, a hint of resentment on his face.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
He had known Tina for quite some time but had never heard her claim such authority over another man.
It was the first time she had said, "our family's."
Lysander clenched his fist. "Tina, he's already so old, he really..."
"I came here today because there's something I need to assign to you. Take your time with this task, infiltrate slowly, don't rouse suspicion," Tina said, sitting back on the stairs, not quite catching Lysander's words. Lysander had no choice but to close his mouth and listen to Tina's instructions.
"Tina, you want me to do this?"
Tina set the strawberry cake on the stairs and looked up. "Use the Emerson family's company to get close to the Reed family. They are collaborating with the Ward and Woodham families to develop bionic robots, a very cutting-edge technology. Your family's expertise in lenses can be used to enhance the eyes of the bionic robots. Afterward, find out which of these three families might leak the secrets of the bionic robots."
"Okay, I understand, Tina, don't worry," Lysander quickly agreed, then suddenly remembered the lenses. "But Tina, we've already developed the latest technology for lenses. It might take some time to make them more convenient."
