Chapter 59
Jackson Evans? Yeah, he was one of those rich dudes around here, a new money guy who'd been on TV and all
that.
How could a no-ncoffee shop tick him off?
The crowd looked at Amara with pity, thinking she was toast.
Seeing her dad's nscare everyone, Laura felt a rush of confidence. She shot a dirty look at her friend who
was bawling and cursed her uselessness in her head.
Laura thought, 'Bunch of losers! You almost gotsmacked.' She glared at the crowd, all high and mighty, "Just
wait, I'm calling my dad. None of you are getting away with this." "What are you yelling about?" Katniss popped
out of the kitchen, her eyes cold as ice. "Without your daddy, you're nothing."
"You!" Laura was floored by the insult.
"Can't even talk straight. Is your brain broken? If it is, stay hand stop embarrassing yourself!"
This world loves to pick on the weak and suck up to the strong, especially the reckless ones.
Katniss grabbed a cup of ice water from the counter, walked up to Laura, and splashed it right in her face
without a second thought.
"Ahhh!" Laura screamed, shivering from the cold, her whole body shaking with rage as she glared daggers at
Katniss. "Katniss! How dare you splash me!"
Laura's friends were stunned.
Katniss, how could she dare?
But Katniss didn't just splash her; she grabbed Laura's hand as she tried to slap her, tossed her aside with a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsneer, "Laura, you better go hand check on your parents! Stop acting all high and mighty." Laura was
dumbfounded, "What do you mean? What's wrong with my parents?"
Katniss stayed cool, "Your dad's been skimming off the top and is under investigation. If you go hnow, you
might catch a last glimpse of him before he heads to jail. And comfort your mom, don't let her do anything
crazy." "You're talking crap!" Laura was about to lose it, wanting to rip Katniss's face off for saying that about her
parents!
"Whether I'm talking crap or not, you'll see when you get home."
Katniss said it so calmly, it didn't seem like a lie. For a moment, Laura's two sidekicks exchanged glances,
thinking Katniss might be onto something.
If Laura's family went broke, would she still be the rich princess?
Not just them, but the crowd started whispering, giving Laura knowing looks.
Laura was fuming. She'd always been the Evans Group princess, never humiliated like this. She grabbed a glass
nearby, ready to smash it into Katniss's face, hoping to scar her for life!
Just as Laura reached out, the TV in the coffee shop switched from a to a news flash.
"Evans Group President Jackson Evans is under investigation by the Luminous City police for bribery and
embezzlement of public funds..."
Laura was in shock, her face going pale as she looked up at the TV. The news showed her dad, Jackson, being
cuffed and taken away by two cops.
"Dad!"
Laura's face turned ghostly white, her whole body feeling colder than when she got splashed with ice water.
Was the Evans Group going belly up?
Everyone else caught the news and started buzzing.
"Serves her right, acting all high and mighty. Karma's a b**x*|"
Laura's two sidekicks had a glint in their eyes.
Laura ain't the rich princess anymore; they ain't putting up with her crap now.
"Laura, can you move? Don't tellyou still got tto gossip about the Evans Group with our staff."
Katniss chimed in.
Honestly, she didn't know Laura before, but when she mentioned Jackson, it clicked.
In her past life, there was an Evans family in the business world. Laura, the Evans' daughter, was in the same
year as her at Nexus Nova College. But right after a speech contest, the Evans family got nailed for bribery and
embezzlement, leading to their downfall.
Jackson got locked up soon after, and his wife jumped off a building. She survived but ended up paralyzed.
Jackson's kids, spoiled rotten, were useless. They couldn't bounce back. Even their last bit of cash got swindled
by relatives and so-called friends. Laura barely made it to her junior year in college before dropping out ‘cause
her family couldn't afford it.
In her past life, Katniss had only heard about this. She didn't expect that in this life, the one causing her trouble
would be the Evans' daughter.
Remembering who Laura was, Katniss wasn't scared of her causing trouble for Amara.
Laura started shaking, and hearing Katniss's voice, she snapped out of it, screaming, "Katniss, how dare you
curse my family! Go to hell!"
Saying this, Laura grabbed a glass nearby.
Before Laura could throw it, one of her sidekicks snatched the glass away, apologized to the shop, and dragged

Laura struggled like crazy, "Debra, how dare you drag me!"
Debra glared at her, "Laura, if you hit someone, we're going to join your family in jail."
These two sidekicks had always been Laura's lapdogs.Never before had they dared to question her. Laura,
hearing her speak like this, instinctively raised her hand.
Debra slapped her hand away, sneering, "Laura, drop the attitude. Do you think you're still the rich heiress
everyone wants to pamper? Get real. You're the daughter of a criminal now!"
"Yeah, Laura, if it weren't for the money, who'd wanna hang with you? You've pissed off so many people at
school; your bad days are coming. Just wait and see!" another girl added, grinning.
Laura was stunned. Her two friends, her loyal companions, had turned on her in a heartbeat. She couldn't
believe they'd always harbored these thoughts. She had spent so much money on them!
"You!" Laura's fingers trembled with rage, pointing at the two, wanting to curse them. But they rolled their eyes
and walked away, griping about Laura's bad habits. Their tone made it clear they'd complained behind her back
plenty. Laura wanted to curse them, but the news on the TV kept going, and soon she started trembling all over.
It was over! Her days of being the high-and-mighty heiress were totally over!
