The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never
Chapter 1572

The man on the other end pinched the bridge of his nose, sounding mildly exasperated.

“If you’re concerned about your reputation, I can assist you next time.

But if Pierson declines, my hands are tied.

”

“Fine! If you won’t help me, I’ll handle it on my own!” Victoria snapped, hanging up in frustration without waiting for a reply.

She clenched her phone tightly and pivoted to push the door open, but someone from inside beat her to it, walking out.

Hannah and Victoria came face-to-face.

Victoria’s expression soured, and she turned to force the door open.

“You wouldn’t want to further embarrass yourself, would you? I believe it’s time to put an end to this,” Hannah interjected suddenly.

Victoria’s hand relaxed on the doorknob as she swiveled to confront Hannah with a sharp look.

“What exactly are you implying?!”

Hannah responded calmly, “You’re also a student, and I’d rather not create a scene.

If you leave now, we can both handle this quietly.

But if you push forward, it might get messy, and it won’t end well for you.

Victoria, however, stood her ground and challenged, “Why should I be the one to leave? It’s clear you’re just trying to cover for Scarlett.

You think she’s already lost, and you want me to leave to spare her the embarrassment,” she accused.

Having grown weary of the argument, Hannah decided not to engage further.

She had attempted to reason with Victoria, but it seemed Victoria was determined to escalate the situation

on her own.

Hannah saw no point in stopping her any longer.

“Alright, then.

Go inside,” Hannah stated with a calm demeanor.

Victoria was momentarily taken aback by Hannah’s tranquil smile and found herself unable to let go of the doorknob.

Her brother’s earlier phone conversation had already hinted that Pierson might not show up.

Leaving now would seem like a concession that she couldn’t bring him, whereas staying might lead to her own humiliation if he indeed failed to appear.

Fuelled by these thoughts, Victoria felt her resentment towards Hannah intensify.

Before she could decide on her next move, Hannah entered the door first, leaving her with a parting comment.

“Think it over.

”

Shortly after, Sadie emerged quietly from the room, looking puzzled.

“Victoria, is Pierson coming?” she inquired.

“He’s not coming!” Victoria snapped, her face twisting in frustration.

“Just get everyone out, and let’s go.

”

Taken aback by the sudden turn of events, Sadie surmised that they wouldn’t manage to embarrass Hannah today.

Thus, she proposed, “Victoria, maybe it’s time we implement the plan I mentioned before to really put her in her place.

”

Recalling the photos they’d snapped earlier, Victoria’s resolve hardened.

“Edit those photos right away and post them online! I want her to suffer immensely!”

Sadie’s eyes shimmered wickedly as she nodded in agreement.

“Consider it done, Victoria.

She won’t even know what hit her!”
