Chapter 570

"Go ahead and report me. If you're not afraid, why should I be?"

Vivian Laurent's lips curled into a cold smirk, her gaze sharp as a blade.

Sophia Sherwood trembled uncontrollably, her voice cracking. "Vivian, I was wrong. Please spare me!"

Only now did true terror grip her. Regret always came too late after failure.

The empty room held no police, no witnesses. Vivian could do as she pleased.

"Begging now?" Vivian scoffed. "Adults should take responsibility for their choices."

She never pitied fools like this. Stupidity in the heat of passion always demanded payment.

Clearly, jealousy had clouded Sophia's judgment, leading to such clumsy schemes.

"Give me another chance!" Sophia pleaded desperately. "I swear I'll compete fairly. No more targeting you."

As if Vivian would believe such lies.

"Fine," she said carelessly. "Kneel and kowtow in apology. Then I might believe you."

Sophia paled. "Never! Vivian, don't push me too far!"

"Too far?" Vivian tilted the glass in her hand. "I can do much worse."

She feigned throwing the liquid at Sophia.

"No!" Sophia shrieked, her legs giving way as she wet herself on the spot.

The acrid stench filled the air instantly. Sophia's dress darkened with spreading dampness, droplets pattering to the floor.

Vivian blinked in surprise. She hadn't even acted yet.

"How pathetic," Vivian mocked. "The campus queen, reduced to this. Imagine if this got out?"

Sophia shook her head frantically. "Please don't tell anyone! I swear I'll leave you alone!"

She collapsed to her knees. "I'm kneeling! Please!"

At worst, this would be misdemeanor assault with no injuries. If Vivian dropped charges...

Vivian always kept her word.

With a flick of her wrist, she poured the liquid onto the floor. Clear. Odorless. No reaction.

"This..." Sophia gaped.

"Just colored water." Vivian's tone remained flat. "I'm not cruel enough for sulfuric acid."

"As a woman, I understand vanity. But I'll still press charges. Next time..."

She set down the glass and walked away.

Sophia slumped on the floor, gasping. Vivian's presence had been suffocating.

But the true humiliation? Pissing herself over a glass of water.
