Chapter 736
Chapter 736
From a young age, Carol noticed that the bullies would first single out the victim before starting to torment and bully them. And they would switch to a new target whenever they lost interest in bullying the victim.
Everyone thought that the next victim was picked at random, but in reality, Carol was manipulating everything. It was as if she was playing a meaningful game by manipulating the bullies to pick at the next victim.
"Carol, you were the one who put Jordan's pendant in Harold's box on purpose, right?" It was until one day that Carol's secret was found out by Simeon
Yet, she continued to play dumb, even in front of him.
"You were the one who made Harold persuade the others to bully Steven, who was new back then, right?" Simeon asked angrily, looking at her.
Carol only smiled at him strangely. "Harold is now a prey.*
The victim of group bullying was referred to as a prey.
She said, "If he doesn't want to be a victim, he has to look for the next one with the others.
Just like a relentless cycle, where one life was exchanged with another.
As such, the victim gradually turned into the perpetrator, and the perpetrator would turn into the next victim. Carol was happily engrossed in her dark games, playing the fool in the orphanage as she gradually took her revenge on everyone. But Steven's appearance broke her rules and "system".
He was a loner by nature, and his superior genes made him different from others even at the age of eight. He was a boy of few words, yet he acted like a lunatic.
Steven never bothered anyone as long as they never bothered him, but if someone were to provoke him, he never left them unscathed. Carol's game system was broken by him just like that.
Just like Simeon, she was attracted by the shocking and rare existence of someone like Steven.
Back then, she started thinking that someone like him should belong to her. As such, she continued to play dumb and weak, hiding behind Steven together with Simeon. She enjoyed Steven's 'protection".
Just like what he had said, the strong had to protect the weak-and he would protect both of them.
Carol gradually got hooked on the fun of being protected. It was far more interesting than her previous dark games. Since then, she started to orchestrate for the others to bully her and Simeon. They would then hide behind Steven.
It was as if she was addicted to seeing how he never lost the light in his eyes despite being beaten and battered. He was seemingly unbeatable.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
Carol continued to push things further, letting the others provoke Steven continuously, but he would only come out stronger every time.
She was beyond excited and enraptured by him. She did not care if he was tormented by her manipulation She was obsessed with fulfilling her own desires while manipulating everyone from the shadows.
However, another variant appeared soon after.
A little girl in a red dress came to the orphanage with her parents for a charity event. It was Stephanie.
Steven was attracted to her the first time he laid his eyes on her. It was a deathly connection originating from their genes.
Carol watched Steven as he watched Stephanie.
From that moment, Carol knew that that little girl named Stephanie would turn out to be her greatest enemy in the future.
