Chapter 79
The three boys stood with their heads down, their arms covered in bruises, dejectedly facing the wall with their clothes stained and dirty. "Jordan?" Bryce was shocked to see that the three guys were his classmates.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Bryce, they're extorting money! You need to get out of here!" Jordan shouted when he saw Bryce.
Jordan and the others initially refused to pay them. However, the thugs beat them up, stole all their money, and humiliated them.
"Think you can get away?"
The thugs noticed Bryce in branded sportswear. Since he was from a wealthy family, they wouldn't let him slip away. The leader signaled to the others, and they quickly surrounded Bryce and Yolanda.
"Hand over all your money if you don't want to get hurt!"
Yolanda looked around at the thugs and chuckled. "What if I don't want to?"
First Academy seemed to be located in a dangerous neighborhood. She had plenty of opportunities to show off her skills every day.
"You don't want to? Don't you know who Edgar is?"
A thug in a denim jacket stepped forward from behind Edgar, glaring at Yolanda. However, when he saw her, he suddenly froze. "You got out of junior detention?"
Yolanda looked at the thug and recognized him as Samson, a distant cousin. Since they were distant relatives, their families rarely got together. From the original Yolanda's memories, Samson always bullied Yolanda and stole her money, but he was very good to Yvonne.
Her expression grew colder as she stared at Samson.
"Yolanda, you know him?"
Bryce was relieved to hear that

Samson knew Yolanda. Even though he knew she was no longer the defenseless girl she used to be, he still didn't want her to get into conflict with these thugs. After all, dealing with underground thugs
could be dangerous for her.
He thought Samson wouldn't extort money from Yolanda since they knew each other.
However, Samson turned to Edgar and said, "This girl is a distant cousin of mine. Her family owns a company. They're loaded!"
Bryce was stunned, and his face darkened with anger.
"How could you steal money from your cousin? You're heartless!"
Samson shrugged indifferently. "Even brothers have to keep scores. We're only distant relatives."
Edgar laughed upon hearing this. He narrowed his eyes and eyed Yolanda and Bryce maliciously.
"Don't say I didn't warn you. Samson's one of my best men. As long as the two of you hand over the money, I won't let my guys lay a hand on you." Bryce's anger flared up upon hearing this.
"This is absurd! We live in a law-abiding society! Who gave you the right to extort money?"
Edgar snorted. "As expected from students of First Academy. You speak differently from others. Do you think you're special because you went to school? Let me tell you, this is my turf, and I'm the law!"
Samson looked at Yolanda greedily.
"Yolanda, since we're family, I advise you to hand over all your money. Isn't the Henderson family rich? I
spent your weekly allowance in aet
month when you were in elementary school. Why don't you share some of your money with us? That's not too much to ask."
Yolanda looked at him calmly and said, "What if I refuse?"
