The old man was almost infuriated, but after all, she was his own daughter. He was about to relent, but these two aunts had used various means to make the old man compromise many times over the years. However, it didn't work this time, Tyler Davis was here.
"Auntie, you won't die from doing this. You just have to aim the scissors at the major artery in your neck, and then stab it fiercely. When the blood runs out, you'll be dead." Tyler Davis said coldly.
To Aria Davis, he seemed like a devil. At this moment, she heard Tyler Davis say again, "Actually, Auntie doesn't have to die so easily. I have a way to save Uncle."
Aria Davis's eyes lit up suddenly and she hurried forward a few steps, but held the scissors tightly and didn't let go. "What's your plan?"
"I heard that the Cooper family wants a piece of land that happens to be in Auntie's hands. I heard that Uncle's mistress is still a minor. Auntie can go and try to see if the guardian of the Cooper family is willing to withdraw the lawsuit in exchange for that land!" Tyler Davis said indifferently.
"That land, I..." Aria Davis hesitated.
That piece of land was something she had gained in exchange for the benefits she had gained from the old man over the years. It was said that it would rise greatly in value soon! Was she going to exchange it for Daniel Scott?
Tyler Davis didn't give her more time to think, "Okay, Auntie, you can think about it yourself. Don't come to the Davis family to seek death next time. I can't stand anyone threatening the old man. The butler will send you out."
Mr. Davis looked at his decisive grandson and chose to stay out of it this time. He never liked Daniel Scott in the first place, and now that this had happened, he was even more disgusted.
After sending Aria Davis away, Tyler Davis returned to Grace Manor under the old man's scrutinizing gaze.
...
"Jacob Anderson, arrange it so that Aria Davis is not allowed to get close to the old man from now on," Tyler Davis said coldly.
"Yes, General. And what about Quinn Cooper?"
"After the trial, whatever Quinn Cooper did to Amelia, she'll get the same treatment and then be sent to Saint Hua. Have the ones sent to protect Amelia arrived yet? We can't afford any more mishaps."
"It's all arranged. They're stationed at the entrance of Saint Hua."
Tyler Davis nodded with a grim expression. He couldn't force Amelia not to go to school, so he had to find another way. If anything happened to Amelia, he didn't dare imagine what he would do. Whoever dared to harm Amelia would face his wrath.
He wanted to destroy Quinn Cooper and the Cooper family, whom they held in such high esteem. He wanted to sever ties with them completely and ruin their reputation. The Cooper family was still intact, but it was only Quinn Cooper who had fallen from grace. This would be more painful for her than if the entire family suffered.
He also wanted Aria Davis to make a choice between money and her daughter. He couldn't be the only one to take action, otherwise these people would come out unscathed.
Tyler Davis was ruthless, and it was more than just a rumor. Those who dared to touch the wrong people would face his wrath.
...
Amelia watched silently as Tyler Davis did everything. She knew he didn't want to dirty her hands. Quinn Cooper's incident had a negative impact on Saint Hua, so the school was doing its best to control the messages, fearing it would harm the school's reputation.
Amelia's studies continued, and she couldn't stop because of these troubles. She had received a warning from the school for being at the bottom of the class twice in a row. If she were to be at the bottom five in the monthly exam three times, the school would consider expelling her to motivate students to work harder. It was a cruel rule, and students who ranked at the bottom lived in constant fear.
But Amelia had no reaction. She seemed unconcerned, as if she wasn't one of the bottom five students.
"Oh, by the way, Amelia, I forgot to ask you. What happened in the monthly exam?" Noah Foster asked. He didn't believe the rumors that Amelia was just pretending to be a good student.
Amelia looked at Noah Foster and said lightly, "I haven't had a chance to study the material for these assessments."
"You're so busy and diligent every day, how could you not have had the chance?" Noah Foster was surprised and widened his eyes.
"Don't worry, in the first month, I reviewed my previous knowledge and went through all of my high school studies. I won't be like this next time," Amelia calmly explained.
Noah Foster suddenly remembered that Amelia had never been to school before and realized that she had been using this time to catch up on her previous studies.
"How did you do? If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me," Noah Foster said with confidence.
"I'm good now, I don't need to study anymore," Amelia replied.
"You finished all of high school in just one month? And you understood everything?" Noah Foster was surprised.
"Yes, I understood everything. If we took another placement test, I could probably get one of the top ranks," Amelia nodded calmly.
Noah Foster was excited and believed in Amelia's words completely. He looked at her as if she were a goddess and rambled on without knowing what he was saying.
Amelia continued to study seriously, making some people feel like she was exaggerating and pretending, especially considering her poor performance on the previous test.
"She's still pretending. What's the point?" some students whispered.
"She's going to get expelled from Saint Hua in less than six months. I bet on it," others said.
"Being pretty doesn't mean anything. If she has the ability, she should try to seduce a professor like Quinn Cooper did!" someone suggested.
Amelia didn't pay attention to what others were saying as long as they didn't say it to her face. Noah Foster also didn't bother to explain to anyone and just enjoyed the pleasure of watching everyone get proven wrong in the future. He criticized Amelia for being too much of a genius to be human and reveled in being the only one who saw through her.
...
Amelia arrived early at the elective course classroom and walked towards her usual spot in the back. The seat next to her was usually empty, so she wiped the desk and chair with a tissue and started to read her book.
"Oh! What a coincidence!" a cheerful voice sounded next to her, and someone sat down next to her without hesitation.
Amelia looked up and saw Ethan Sullivan, but she remained indifferent and didn't respond.
Ethan Sullivan wasn't embarrassed and put down his book, acting like an obedient child.
"Oh! What a coincidence!" Caleb Smith also showed up shortly after and sat on Amelia's left side, grinning and revealing his little tiger teeth.
Amelia frowned slightly but remained silent.
"If I remember correctly, you're in fourth grade?" Ethan Sullivan said with gritted teeth.
"So what? Professor Zhang is giving a great lecture on theory, and I'm just here to listen," Caleb Smith said with seriousness.
Amelia's face turned a little cold. She wasn't a fool, and it was clear that these two were here to bother her.
