The Forgotten Girl Is Back For Revenge

Chapter 99

Hailey opened her mouth, but was at a loss for words.

It was true that Owen had chere because of her.

Hailey sighed helplessly and stood up, saying, “I'll go buy your ticket.”

Owen nodded slightly and remained in his seat, waiting patiently for her.

He hadn't slept all night, and coupled with his stomach pain, he looked extremely haggard. Yet even so, it

couldn't hide his striking features. In fact, his pale complexion and weary state only added a sense of

melancholic charm.

Hailey bought him a ticket, along with a bottle of water, sbread, and a sausage.

Owen had no appetite, so he could only eat plain food. The small-town supermarket didn’t offer much else, and

he could only make do with those.

Owen wasn’t picky, and given his poor appetite, he couldn't eat much anyway. He barely managed a few bites

before feeling exhausted.

Leaning his head against Hailey’s shoulder, he weakly murmured, “I haven't slept all night. Letrest for a bit.”

Hailey had just lifted her hand, intending to push him away, but in the end, she let it drop.

After all, he was only there and suffered so much because of her.

The man rested against her shoulder, closed his eyes, and couldn’t help but curl his lips slightly.

They stayed in that position for a long time. At 1:45 p.m., they finally boarded the bus.

From the bus, they traveled to the county, then took a high-speed train to the city. After a journey of nearly

twenty-four hours, they finally arrived in Hallon City.

Hailey hadn't told anyone she was returning.

When she had bought an apartment for Christopher, she had also purchased one for herself, which was fully

furnished and ready to move into.

She dropped Owen off at the Calhoun family’s residence, watched him go inside, and then headed to her own

apartment.

She planned to stay there for a couple of days to clear her thoughts before returning to the Dalton family.

Her apartment was in Riverside Estate in a slightly secluded area.

As soon as Hailey got out of the car and walked toward the building, she spotted a familiar figure.

The man was dressed in a black suit, wearing a mask and a hat, and moving suspiciously.

But Hailey recognized him at a glance-it was Mateo.

‘What's he doing here?’ she wondered.

She remembered that Mateo’s family background was quite ordinary. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so

desperate to climb the social ladder at all costs in her previous life.

Since Selena had gone abroad, Hailey figured his plan to use her as a stepping stone was no longer viable. That

meant he had to find another way.

Hailey narrowed her eyes and silently followed him...

Mateo didn’t take the elevator. Instead, he used the stairwell and stopped on the fourth floor.

Hailey hid in a corner and watched as Matco walked up to Unit 401.

He removed his mask and hat, took a deep breath, and then knocked on the door.

Mateo had quite the looks-handsand refined, exuding the aura of a charismatic gentleman that young girls

adored. His height and flawless skin only made him more appealing.

A young lady with a cute face but a chubby figure opened the door.

The moment she saw Mateo, she rushed over to hug him and even planted a kiss on his cheek. Her face was full

of excitement and joy.

Mateo looked gentle and affectionate, but Hailey detected the disgust in his eyes.

From outside the door, she heard him saying in his sickeningly sweet voice, “Holly, I'm here.”

The young girl named Holly

Sovered She pulled him inside and shut the door behind them.

Hailey’s gaze turned cold. She thought, ‘So this scumbag has found a new target. He really never misses a

chance, does he?’

If Hailey hadn’t run into this, she might have let it go. But now that she had, she decided that she had to do

something about

i)

Taking a deep breath, she went back to her own apartment.

The place was sparsely furnished, and there was nothing in it, not even a change of clothes.

Before taking a shower, Hailey called Lily and asked her to send sclothes over.

By the tshe was done, Lily had already arrived.

Out of care and concern, Lily had sent over a carload of clothes, enough to fill Hailey’s wardrobe with outfits for

every

season.

After changing into fresh clothes, Hailey checked the fridge and decided to go out to buy sfood and other

essentials.

She figured she would be staying there often, so she might as well make the place feel more like home.

She wore black pencil pants and a black turtleneck sweater, layered with a cropped, fluffy, pale pink jacket for

warmth. The whole look was finished off with a pair of trendy boots.

With her tall, slim frand radiant complexion, she looked like a fashion model.

She tied her hair up into a sleek high ponytail, giving off a cool and sharp vibe. But with the pink jacket, there

was also a hint of softness and sweetness mixed in.

She was in good spirits and even put on a bit of light makeup before heading downstairs.

Just as she stepped outside, she ran into Holly, Mateo’s chubby girlfriend.

The young lady seemed to be heading back, looking upset with her lips pressed together in a pout.

As Hailey walked toward her, Holly couldn't help but glance at her a few times, silently marveling at how

stunning she was.

She glanced down at herself again, seeing nothing but excess fat.

Holly felt even worse. She lowered her head and walked absentmindedly.

Just as they were about to pass each other, Hailey took out her phone, pretending to be distracted.

As expected, they bumped into each other. Hailey’s grip loosened, and her phone fell to the ground. The screen

instantly went black.

Holly was stunned for a moment before hurriedly apologizing. “I'm so sorry. | wasn’t looking.” She crouched

down, staring at the cracked screen helplessly.

“It’s okay, | was at fault too.” Hailey’s tone was gentle as she shook her head. Then, she picked up her phone.

Holly said anxiously, “Your phone is broken. Why don’t you tellhow much it costs, and I'll pay for it?”

Hailey shook her head with a light chuckle. “No need. | was planning to get a new one anyway. It’s fine.”

Holly’s family was well-off, so she could definitely afford it, but she still felt guilty. “No, that wouldn't be fair. |

was the one who broke it. Letcover the cost of your new phone. Are you going to buy one now?”

Hailey hesitated for a moment before smiling. “Yes, | am.”

Holly immediately offered, “Then I'll go with you.”

Hailey couldnt help but sigh inwardly. This young girl is way too naive. No wonder she’s falling for someone like

Mateo.

Hailey went along with it and said, “Alright, I'll trouble you then.”

Holly finally breathed a sigh of relief. “Not at all! It's the least | can do.”

“I'm Hailey Dalton,” Hailey introduced herself.

Holly also said, “I'm Holly Hart. Nice to meet you.”
