章 160: The Past Unveiled

Brandon was really desperate, willing to go to such extremes just to win her favor, even if it meant compromising himself. Ella was both disgusted and amused by his actions. With a light laugh, she said, "Brandon, that's enough. I don't want your so-called 'gift.' Besides, Hannah's reputation is already in shambles. I have no interest in bringing her down further."

With that, she stepped around Brandon and strode downstairs without looking back.

"Ella…" Brandon called out, clearly flustered. He had gone all out, shamelessly offering something so incriminating, yet she wasn't even tempted in the slightest.

At that moment, a lanky boy appeared on the stairs below, taller than Ella. He glanced curiously at Brandon, who was chasing after her.

Realizing he couldn't pursue her any further, Brandon stopped in his tracks as Ella quickly descended the stairs and headed toward the back hill.
