Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany

Chapter 671

Thalia was a bit annoyed. “I don’t have the time. Eric’s school ha contest tomorrow, and I need to be there to cheer him

1. on.

Daisy replied. “Oh, I see. Then what about the day after tomorrow? Surely you’ll have time then!”

Daisy giggled and linked arms with Thalia, saying, “I’ll pick you up in the morning. It’s settled then! Aunt Thalia, no backing out!”

She quickly tried to slip away after saying this, not giving Thalia chance to refuse. Jeffrey often used the same tactic and found it almost always worked.

But Thalia was no longer one to fall for these tricks. She immediately replied coldly, “I’m busy the day after tomorrow too. Go have fun on your own.”

“Aunt Thalia…” Daisy’s eyes darted about, and she suddenly thought of today’s news.

She put on a facade of fake concern.

She said, “Aunt Thalia, we’re going to Sanctuary Mountain. Wouldn’t you like to make a wish for Tiffany? What if the news proves accurate and she gets abandoned after her wedding?”

Thalia stayed silent.

This struck a nerve for Thalia. No mother would ever want anything bad for her daughter.

In the end, she gave in. “Fine.”

Daisy smiled. “I’ll come pick you up first thing in the morning!”

Having fulfilled her father’s request, Daisy didn’t linger and left, feeling pleased.

After she left, a maid whispered cautiously, “Mrs. Kelley, why do your family members behave in such a manner? They’re really manipulative.”

They weren’t just manipulative. They were basically forcing people into corners.

Their domineering approach had left Thalia with no choice at all.

Thalia shook her head, her expression clouded with annoyance.

That evening, Tiffany had just finished her bath and was lounging on a chaise, applying hand cream.

Her phone lit up with a new message from June, saying: [Ms. Kelley, Daisy has invited your mother to hike Sanctuary Mountain the day after tomorrow.]

Sanctuary Mountain was reputed to be the most spiritually potent place in Lovell City.

For that reason, attracted a lot of visitors. However, the climb was challenging, and not everyone could make it to the top.

Jeffrey was clearly up to something. Tiffany quickly replied: [Keep watch.]

June replied: [Understood!]

The next day, Eric’s school Held a large sports contest. Tiffany attended as well. In the busting and lively arena, Erie stood out among the older kids because of lils small stature..

Having skipped a grade. Eric was much younger than his classmates.

Yet even so, he remained the favorite of the group. When he struggled to keep up during a race, a tall kid carried him on their back while others cheered him on. It was as if they all saw Eric as their younger brother.

Tiffany chuckled, and when Eric glanced at her eagerly, she gave him an encouraging thumbs–up.

The contest lasted all day.

At the end of the event, Thalia suggested Tiffany come home with them, but Tiffany had other plans. Knowing Jeffrey’s schemes for the next day, she declined with a different excuse.

Staying at home would make it harder for Jeffrey to carry out his schemes.

However, Tiffany’s refusal only heightened Thalia’s sense of unease. Worried, she watched Tiffany closely and resolved to go to Sanctuary Mountain.

The next day, Daisy drove up to the gate of Cedar Ridge Villa at dawn. She had come alone, with no driver and no bodyguards.

Thalia, an early riser, got in the car. Then, they set off.

At the foot of Sanctuary Mountain, the parking lot was nearly empty, with only a few scattered cars due to the early hour. The place felt desolate.

Daisy smiled brightly. “Aunt Thalia, let’s start climbing!”

“Alright.” Thalia nodded, and the two began ascending the stone steps.

After climbing for quite a while, Thalia suddenly asked, “Daisy, what made you decide to hike today? I remember you hate doing things like this.”

Daisy pouted. It was all her father’s idea. If not for him, she wouldn’t be dragging herself out here, missing her precious morning sleep.

But she couldn’t say that, so she replied, “I’ve heard many people visit Sanctuary Mountain to make wishes. It’s quite miraculous, so I wanted to make a wish too.”

The excuse was plausible, and Thalia didn’t press further. Breathing heavily, she continued climbing.

Her goal was clear. She would reach the top and make a wish at the sacred spring for her daughter’s well–being.

Focused on this mission, Thalia didn’t notice Daisy glancing at her phone with a smug. Daisy then plopped onto the steps, complaining, “I can’t go any farther, Aunt Thalia.”

Thalia said, “We’re only halfway up.”

“You go on without me. I really can’t make it.”

“Alright.”

Thalia didn’t think much of it. Not everyone had the stamina or determination to climb all the way to the summit.

From then on, Thalia climbed the rest of the

way alone.

At first, she occasionally passed a few hikers, but as a light mist began to rise around her, she found herself completely alme

Exhausted, she leaned against a tree, gasping for air.

The summit was not far away, and Thalia decided to push forward.

However, Thalia didn’t know a carefully planned trap was waiting for her at the summit.

Jeffrey hid among the thick branches above. He hadn’t told Daisy the real reason for this hike, fearing she might accidentally spill the truth.

The fewer people who knew, the better.

To leave no trace, he wore rubber gloves to ensure he wouldn’t leave fingerprints.

Now, all Jeffrey had to do was wait for Thalia to reach the summit, then shove her off the edge when she least expected it

Jeffrey had been there since before dawn, lying in wait for this moment.

He had a sinister smile as the silhouette of a weary Thalia gradually appeared through the swirling mitt.

Jeffrey thought, ‘Finally, she’s here!‘

Bent over with fatigue, Thalia wore a look of joy and excitement.

At the summit, the sacred spring gleamed before her. Shrouded in mist, the view was breathtaking, like something out of a heavenly paradise.

Thalia clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and whispered her wish to the spring she had placed so much faith in.

Hiding on the tree branch, Jeffrey smirked coldly. His chance had finally arrived.

He immediately leaped down from the tree. The sound of his landing footsteps startled Thalia, prompting her to turn around. But before she could see the figure behind her, a powerful force struck her.

Her scream echoed through the valley as she plummeted toward the cliff below.

Jeffrey thought to himself triumphantly, ‘It’s done!‘

Jeffrey was about to turn and leave when a sudden gust of wind rushed past, dispersing the lingering mist around him. The wind surged in the direction of Thalia, who was plunging downward.

Everything happened too quickly. Seconds later, Thalia, whom Jeffrey had just pushed off the edge, stood firmly on the ground.

In the critical moment, someone caught her and pulled her back to safety. That someone was Tiffany.
