The Real Daughter Came Back to Chill and Kill novel Chapter 20

Scarlett brought Percy straight to one of the VIP rooms. She knew Percy had money to spare, and besides, booking a private room would increase her commission by a hundred dollars.

Percy skimmed through the menu and started ordering without batting an eye, picking dishes that added up to over a thousand dollars. In no time, the table was filled with food.

Scarlett did a quick calculation. This could feed her for three whole days.

She could pack up the leftovers. The dorm had a fridge and a microwave, so at least for the next three days, she wouldn't have to rely on microwave food.

Just as they were eating, Percy's phone rang. A cold voice came through the speaker. "Where are you?"

Percy jumped, nearly dropping his phone. He stammered, "I was hungry, so I came out to eat. If you're busy, don't worry about me. I promise I'll head straight home and do my homework after this…"

At that moment, the door to the private room swung open, and Nadia appeared with a hostile look on her face.

"Scarlett, I knew you'd be here!"

Then, she spotted Percy. "Well, well, if it isn't Mr. Apology himself. What's this? Are you two on a date or something?"

"Wow, Scarlett. You just got to Class F and you're already cozying up to Mr. Apology? Seriously, you're shameless."

On the phone, the voice on the other end grew colder. "Send me your location."

Frightened, Percy immediately hung up. He shot to his feet and yelled, "If anyone calls me Mr. Apology again, I swear I'll lose it!"

Percy was tall and lean with sharp features, typically exuding a laid-back air as if nothing could ever bother him. But right now, he was a different person. His eyes were burning with intensity, as if he could snap and cause a storm at any moment.

Percy's outburst caught Scarlett off guard. This was the side of him she hadn't expected. He radiated a rebellious and intimidating demeanor that seemed impossible to ignore. Nadia was also taken aback by Percy's sudden fury. She faltered for a moment before quickly trying to recover.
