Does she really want the amusement park? Does this woman actually think it's a gold mine? "No way," I flatly refused.
"Why not?" Haley Perez asked me.

Arguing with someone so unreasonable was pointless, so instead of continuing, I asked, "Tell me, why do you want the amusement park so badly?" "Because it's a cash cow. With it, I won't have to worry about my future," Haley's response sounded grounded.
From her reactions, her words seemed to ring true, but I knew it wasn't that simple.
"Haley, you want something but you're not being honest. How do you expectto say yes to your request?" | pointed out bluntly.
Her eyes narrowed. "You really want to hear the truth?" I didn't even respond; instead, I turned to leave, but she grabbedagain, "The truth is, I want to take what's yours." That was brutally honest.
I studied her, "I don't remember us knowing each other or having any interactions before. Why would you want to take what's mine?" Haley gave a bitter smirk and said, "You really don't remember, do you?" I was confused. "Don't remember what?" "When we were in school, you were always in the spotlight, winning numerous awards. I guess you don't remember those, do you?" She was right, but I didn't even know her back then.
"You also participated in a debate competition where your team won first place, and you were awarded the best debater... The thof that debate was public versus private. I was there too," Haley said, her gaze drifting off into her memories.
I only had a vague recollection of that debate; the specifics were lost on me.
Back in school, not only did I participate in debates, but I was also involved in speeches and various talent competitions. Looking back, I was indeed outstanding. "Letguess, I beat you?" I asked, half-jokingly.
Haley laughed too, but it was a cold laugh, "Yes, you won... I lost the competition, disappointed my school and teachers, and was criticized by everyone, saying I was only good in my own backyard." I didn't realize we had such a history, and I couldn't help but smile sarcastically. "So, you've held a grudge againstsince then?" "Felicia Hudson, you excel in everything. Even after your parents passed away, you still managed to find a new life with the Wagner family. refuse to believe I can't win over you in anything. That's why I want the amusement park.

"I refuse to believe that my life is just about losing to you, she lookedstraight in the eye. "What if I don't give you that chance?" I wasn't swayed by her words.
There are things I might let go of, not to accommodate her, but because I no longer want them.
But the amusement park is different. It holds my father's love for me.
Even though he wasn't involved in its conception, if it weren't for a suggestion he made, I wouldn't have proposed building this amusement park, and it wouldn't exist. Moreover, I've put too much into this amusement park; how could I possibly hand it over to Haley? Besides, considering the value of the amusement park, how is Haley even a match for it?
"Felicia, just givethe amusement park, and I promise I'll never appear Hey'll neve in your life again. Mleven go out of E my way to avoid you," she offered.
I chuckled softly, "And if I don't?" A venomous coldness flickered in Haley's eyes, "Then we'll both sink into the mire together."
