After My Childhood Friends Sold My Nudes, I Finally Left Them

Adrian had also cursed me in private, calling me a bitch who had been used by others. He only thought that Nancy liked being around crowds and enjoyed excitement even more. He was still talking when a voice came from behind him.

"I’ve been looking for you for a long time. Why are you standing here?"

Marcel saw me behind Adrian, but I noticed that his face suddenly changed.

"You dare to come here? Don’t you want your hand anymore?"

Adrian quickly stopped him.

"Hannah has realized her mistake. She promised to give the necklace and ring to Nancy as an apology and she’s also giving her parents’ research materials."

Marcel’s face softened a little after hearing that.

"I won’t bother arguing with you about this for now. Last time, Nancy spent a lot of money to get your private photos back for you. Even though you didn’t keep the photos yourself, you still need to repay Nancy."

Adrian didn’t say anything, but he clearly agreed with Marcel’s words.

"I’ve decided to transfer all the property under your parents’ names to Nancy."

"And the house your parents left you, I already sent someone to tear it down and rebuild it. Don’t go back there again. Nancy won’t be happy if she sees you."

"From now on, you’ll stay with the Dougherty Family. You’ll eat and live normally with us. No one will treat you unfairly."

I looked at him in shock.

Did he really want to erase my past and destroy everything my parents left me?

My silent tears stopped Marcel from continuing. His throat seemed stuck, as if he couldn’t say anything else. Adrian also noticed my emotions and was about to comfort me, but Nancy suddenly appeared.

They both turned to hug her with concern.

I stopped looking at them and walked away quickly. Even though they wanted to say a few more words to me, they believed they would have time to explain everything after tonight. So they didn’t come after me.

At eight o’clock in the evening, I picked up my suitcase by the door. I quickly left the house key on the counter. Finally, I closed the door that had trapped me for fifteen years.

Meanwhile, Nancy had already arrived at the event with Marcel and Adrian, all dressed up. The event was held at the entrance of the institute. She was determined to be the center of attention tonight.

The dean spoke happily, saying that he appreciated young people who had the spirit of sacrifice and he wanted to praise the new talent joining the institute this year.

Nancy sat in the audience, full of excitement. She believed that she had finally surpassed me and was now recognized by others. Marcel and Adrian, sitting beside her, were also happy for her and ready to applaud when the dean announced her name.

But the dean continued speaking, "This year, Hannah Jameson, a new student recruited by the institute, has shown great promise and is already following Professor Priscilla Adkins to the front line to take part in project research."

Marcel and Adrian both stood up from their seats in shock.

"What did you say?"
