The Heiress's Second Chance At Vengeance (Eliza) novel Chapter 308

Chapter 308 A Masked Return

Emma frowned at the words.

Sure enough, when she turned her head, she saw Naomi strutting through the campus.

Naomi’s outfit was intentionally provocative–clearly meant to grab attention.

“She was disfigured… wasn’t she? But her face looks totally fine.”

It had only been a few days. Even if the wounds weren’t that deep, no one should recover this quickly.

Yet Naomi’s face was flawless. Not a single blemish.

Eliza had just arrived on campus when she overheard the students murmuring about Naomi’s return.

Apparently, not only did Naomi’s face show no sign of injury–it looked even better than before.

Eliza’s brows furrowed.

In that video, Ashton had clearly slashed Naomi’s face. That footage couldn’t have been doctored.

So how had she healed so fast?

Eliza walked a few steps forward and saw Naomi standing at the entrance of the academic building, laughing and chatting with a male student.

He was likely one of Naomi’s classmates–and one of her admirers.

Their smiles and eye contact were unmistakably flirty.

Just then, Emma and her friends strode toward the entrance.

The moment Emma saw Naomi–alive, whole, and glowing–her face darkened.

“Naomi! You’ve got some nerve showing your face around here!”

She raised her hand to slap Naomi.

But Naomi seemed to have seen it coming. She caught Emma’s wrist mid–air, gripping it tightly.

Naomi sneered. “You think you can lay a hand on me? I’m not that easy to mess with.”

Then she shoved Emma back hard.

Emma stumbled, nearly falling to the ground. If her friends hadn’t grabbed her, she would’ve gone down.

“This is a school, Ms. Emma. You might want to mind your manners.”

The sudden burst of anger sent jolts of pain through Naomi’s healing wounds.

They weren’t fully closed yet. And now, facing the woman who had helped ruin her, Naomi burned with

rage.

“If you want me dead, you’ll have to wait until your next life.”

She spat out the words and turned, walking straight into the building.

Emma glared after her, seething.

With Naomi walking around looking radiant, everyone now believed she couldn’t possibly be the woman from that video.

Maybe it was someone who looked like her. Or maybe the whole thing was fake.

The tide of gossip turned swiftly. Students started whispering that Emma must have fabricated the video out of jealousy.

Now she was the one seen as a liar.

Back in class, Eliza sat quietly, thinking about Naomi’s face.

She’d seen her clearly this morning–and it looked flawless.

Could modern medicine really heal wounds and erase scars in just a few days?

Eliza shook her head.

Impossible.

Medical technology hadn’t come that far.

Something was definitely off.

She wasn’t familiar with the cosmetic surgery industry, but it looked like she needed to investigate what Naomi had done to her face.

“That’s Soren, isn’t it? What’s he doing here?”

“Soren’s an alum. He probably came back to give back to the school.”

That evening, the university was holding its annual art festival.

Students could attend if they wanted, but participation wasn’t mandatory,

Eliza hadn’t planned on going–she never cared much about school events.

But hearing Soren’s name caught her off guard.

She hadn’t known he had studied at Claire University too.

She vaguely recalled seeing something in his file–something about studying in the arts department.

Curious, Eliza looked out the window and spotted a man in a sleek black suit and dark sunglasses standing outside.

From that angle, he looked almost identical to Nolan.
