The Heiress’s Second Chance at Vengeance
Chapter 314 Two Hours of Truth
Two hours…
Eliza silently repeated the number to herself.
If the synthetic skin was worn for more than two hours, Naomi’s skin would start to break down.
But how could she guarantee Naomi wouldn’t slip away during that window?
Soren noticed the hesitation on Eliza’s face.
“Something troubling you?”
“Not exactly,” she replied. “I’m just trying to expose someone’s lie.
Naomi had hidden Eliza’s parents somewhere–Eliza hadn’t seen a trace of them in days.
Whatever Naomi was doing by sticking close to Nathaniel, it couldn’t be simple.
And Eliza had no intention of falling into her trap one day.
“If you want someone to slip up, that’s not hard to arrange.”
“Oh?” Eliza raised her brows. “How so?”
“It’s not hard to keep someone in one place for two hours. My concerts are two hours long, after all.”
His meaning was crystal clear.
Eliza looked slightly surprised. “You’d help me?”
“You offered to treat me to dinner today. I can return the favor.”
Soren added, “Although…”
“Say what you want. As long as it’s something I can do, I’ll say yes.”
Soren smiled faintly. “It’s nothing major. My mother–she’s not in great shape mentally. She gets emotional, and not many people can calm her down. But after meeting you last time, she really liked you. All I ask is that you join me for dinner at home sometime. Just sit with my mom.”
“That’s all?”
“That’s all.”
Since his request was so simple, Eliza didn’t hesitate to agree.
Especially if Soren was the one orchestrating it–Naomi would have no reason to be suspicious.
Soren wasn’t part of the circle. To Naomi, he’d appear completely uninvolved.
That would increase the chance of Naomi making a mistake.
“Wait for my signal,” Eliza said. “Tomorrow’s going to be fun.”

After dinner that night, Soren made a call to his agent.
“I’m planning to host a concert at Claire University the day after tomorrow.”
The agent was stunned. “But Mr. Hayes, you just donated there yesterday. Under what pretense are you doing a concert so soon?”
“A goodwill performance,” Soren replied. “Also–find me a female guest to close the show. She’ll be onstage with me.”
“Uh… what?”
The agent was dumbfounded.
He had no idea what Soren was thinking.
By the next morning, word of Soren’s Claire University concert had spread like wildfire across campus.
No one expected Soren to come back for a private concert just for them.
This time, it was invitation–only for students and would be livestreamed to the public.
Soren’s studio had already released a poster.
“I can’t believe Soren’s holding a concert here! That means we get to see him live for free?”
“They say he spent five million gifting every student something, but you can only get it if you show up. I wonder what it is!”
“I bet the whole campus will be there. This might be a once–in–a–lifetime chance.
Students were buzzing with excitement.
Soren wasn’t just a top–tier celebrity–he was the billionaire CEO of an entertainment empire.
To date him meant winning both love and fortune in one go.
Naturally, every girl on campus wanted to attend.
Naomi overheard her classmates talking about it and couldn’t help but feel tem
Rumor had it that Soren wasn’t just good–looking–he was incredibly powerful.
If she could get close to him, her life could level up overnight,
She weighed the idea.
But the thought quickly deflated. With so many people attending, Soren probably wouldn’t even notice her.
