The Heiress’s Second Chance of Vengeance
Chapter 492 Stirring Up the Crowd
After the principal finished speaking, he tried to leave, but a parent grabbed his arm: “We’re not latine, the police–we’re talking to you! Our kids were enrolled in your school, and now they’re gone You‘ dwe us an explanation!”
“That’s right! We demand an explanation!”
The shouts grew louder.
Not far away, Eliza sat in Nolan’s car, calmly watching the scene unfold.
“What better way to escalate this than having the victims‘ families show up to make a scene?”
She hadn’t realized Nolan had planned this in advance–gathering the victims families and sending them to the school gates to put on a show Compared to his methods, she had to admit she was outmatched.
In the crowd, Eliza noticed a middle–aged woman with white at her temples, three children standing behind her.
She’d been watching this woman from the start. The woman/held a sign high above her head: My daughter is not a murderer.
Eliza recognized her as Emilia’s mother. The woman couldn’t speak, and seemed unable to see clearly, so she could only hold the sign in silent protest.
“I understand, I understand,” the principal said, trying to placate the crowd. “I know how you feel, but we must act according to the law. Trust the police investigation. This is considered a disturbance, but because I sympathize with your loss, I won’t hold it against you. However, if you keep making trouble here, I will have to call the police.”
But the moment his tone hardened, the families became even more agitated..
“Call the police? Fine! I’ll tell them exactly how you came to my house, begged me to keep quiet, and handed me half a million!”
“My child’s been dead for years, and I thought it was suicide. Now I learn it was your school’s fault! Give me back my child’s life!”
Some broke down in tears on the
spot.
The onlookers began murmuring, clearly siding with the parents. Most were more inclined to believe the rumors online.
“If the school doesn’t give us answers today, we’re not leaving!”
“That’s right–we’re staying put!”
“If nothing was wrong, why did you give us hush money? Claire University Medical School must be hiding something. We demand the truth!
The parents‘ anger infected the crowd.
“Exactly! Give us an explanation!” someone shouted.
“So many kids have committed suicide or gone missing–don’t you, as the principal, bear any

responsibility?”
“Right, the medical school must be hiding something! Tell the truthf
The principal was nearly driven mad. How had so many people shown up at once? Someone had is he
behind this.
“Call Mr. Henry–tell him I can’t hold out much longer,” he ordered.
A security guard hurried off to notify the Foster family.
Before long. Henry had the news.
“Someone’s making trouble at Claire University?”
“Yes, sir. It’s serious. The victims‘ families somehow gathered at the gate and won’t leave.”
Henry smirked. There was no way so many families appeared at once without someone orchestrating it
This had Nolan’s handprints all over it–no one else would dare.
“Mr. Henry,” the principal pleaded through the guard’s report, “I can’t keep this under control. If it keeps going, we can’t cover it up.”
And indeed, in less than half an hour, the story was back at the top of the trending lists.
After seven straight days dominating the hot search, there was no burying it now.
Nolan clearly understood that too–which was why he’d been escalating slowly, digging deeper step by step instead of unleashing everything at once.
