NovelUSAChapter 531 Wade's face twisted with fury as soon as he heard Kali's words. Without thinking, he snatched up Citrine's half- finished drink and flung it right at Kali's face.
He glared at her, his tone venomous. "Who the hell are you calling ungrateful? Don't think for a second that just because you're a woman, I won't lay a hand on you." Kali froze, the cold liquid dripping down her cheeks, her expression hardening by the second. She fought to keep her temper in check, pushing aside her damp hair and forcing a pleasant tone. "Mr. Saunders, don't be angry. I'm only upset for you and your sister's sake." "After all, you two have been nothing but kind to Citrine, but she just doesn't seem to appreciate it." Wade was about to lash out again when Monica raised a hand to stop him.
Monica rose from her seat, fixing Kali with a cool, enigmatic stare. "So, what is it you actually want from us?" Kali smiled, her tone syrupy. "Miss Saunders, we really don't have any ulterior motives. We just happened to witness how sincerely you both invited Citrine, only to be met with her cold shoulder. It was hard to watch, that's all." "Is that all? Just hard to watch?" Monica's eyes narrowed, her voice frosty.

"Miss Saunders, maybe you don't know, but Citrine is quite infamous at Crestwood University. Ever since freshman orientation, she's been tangled up with all sorts of older and younger guys. Even Hastings-the one I've known since childhood-fell head over heels for her. The whole campus gossips about her wild personal life." She continued, "Miss Saunders, Mr. Saunders, this is the real Citrine. You don't know what she's really like-you've been fooled by her." She's nothing but a scheming tramp, Kali thought. The only reason the Saunders siblings even bother with her is because she's the CEO of CICI Group.
The Saunders family actually treated her with srespect, and yet she had the nerve to snub them.
Monica had spent years working under Hilda, adopting her mentor's pride and ruthless precision. Wade might be a spoiled trust-fund brat, but he was hardly someone who'd leta challenge slide.
Kali simply couldn't believe that two proud, combative people like the Saunders siblings would just shrug off Citrine's attitude.
Now, both Monica and Wade's faces were contorted with barely contained rage, struggling not to throttle Kali right then and there.
They wanted to see just what Kali was really after.
A sly look flashed in Kali's eyes as she faced the siblings. She took the initiative, her voice laced with malice. "Miss Saunders, Citrine is a fraud. Why not letteach that arrogant little upstart a lesson?" She looked at them hopefully, desperation flickering beneath her bravado.
Now that she Host Scales's favor-and after what he said at the auction, he'd likely announce their breakup to everyone tonight-she had nothing left. But if she could use this chance to ingratiate herself with the Saunders family, maybe she wouldn't be so alone at Crestwood after all.

"And how exactly do you plan on teaching her a lesson?" Monica m ground out her words barely more Er than a snarl. "I..." Kali hesitated, then caught herself. "Don't worry about it. I promise, by the tI'm done, her reputation will be ruined." Monica pressed her for details, but Kali refused to say any more.
At that, Monica and Wade exchanged a knowing look.
Without warning, Wade grabbed a fistful of Kali's hair and dragged her roughly in front of Monica.
"What the hell are you doing? Let go of me!" Kali stared at Wade in shock and outrage, struggling to wrench her En hair free from his grip.
