Chapter 327
Aubree showed Alvin the invitation message she had received.
“She’s definitely up to no good,” Alvin said at once.
“She invited you too?”
“I got the invitation ages ago. Carmen’s pretty sneaky. She made use of Irvin to invite me.” Alvin frowned at the
recollection. Irvin seemed so decent. He couldn’t understand how Irvin ended up hanging out with someone like
Carmen. The more he thought, the angrier he became.
Aubree also wondered out loud with knitted brows, “What exactly is Carmen planning?”
“I heard the Wilson family and Percival Xaver organized this art exhibition for Carmen mainly to whitewash her
plagiarism scandals. Otherwise, people would just keep bringing it up,” Alvin explained.
Aubree was stupefied. “What? Do they own a paint factory? They think they can just whitewash anything?” Even
when the offense had been thoroughly investigated and verified, they still believed it could be whitewashed?
Alvin shrugged. “Who knows? She invited you, but she’s probably just trying to capitalize on your clout. It's best
if you don’t go.”

Aubree glanced at the message again. Then she finally chuckled to herself. “That only makeswant to check
it out even more.” If need be, she might even stir up a little trouble for Carmen.
She would never allow Carmen to achieve the ssuccess she had in Aubree’s previous life. She did not
deserve it.
Aubree put away her phone. When Alvin saw that she was determined to go, he wondered whether he should tag
along.
“By the way, weren't you still busy investigating that matter? Any progress? Need my help?” Aubree asked.
Alvin smiled at her query. “Almost there.”
Previously, at the hot spring resort, Alvin found out from Mark King, who told him that the murderer of his
parents was likely in Rithol City. Furthermore, Mark’s men had also discovered that the little girl his parents
saved had ended up in an orphanage, and that orphanage was also in Rithol City. And there was more.
A chilling laugh that sent shivers down one’s spine escaped Alvin's lips. “And coincidentally, all the suspects may
be in Rithol City right now.”
Aubree didn’t know why, but under Alvin's piercing gaze, an inexplicable panic seized her. Forcing a smile, she
managed to say, “Well...congratulations then.”
“Once | get to the bottom of this, we can have a celebratory meal. My treat.” Alvin offered generously.
“Sure, thanks.”
The two exchanged a knowing smile.
Aubree didn’t give much thought to Carmen’s message. She might drop by just for the fun of it if she
remembered. But if she was busy, she wouldn't go since it wasn’t a priority anyway.
When Aubree cinto this life, she saw Carmen Wilson as her greatest enemy. Getting revenge on Carmen was
the only thing that kept her going. Now that she had grown up and seen more of the world, her desire for
revenge had not changed, but its priority had changed.
Revenge was still a must, and everyone in the Wilson family would get what they deserved. But her life no longer
revolved around vengeance.
Now that she had a thriving career, it was tfor her to live the life she never had in her previous life and make
up for her regrets.
Due to the tspent in Kroit City and Stdlichen Strand, Aubree had missed quite a few classes. She was
determined to catch up. After all, her professors already granted her certain exemptions. She had no excuse to
fail her courses now.

However, Aubree didn’t realize just how badly Carmen wanted her to cto her art exhibition.
That afternoon, Carmen showed up at the entrance of Rithol University.
A hunched-back girl called Lilia Farnell ushered Carmen through the campus gates and murmured respectfully.
“Ms. Wilson, Aubree Miller is having lunch at Cafeteria A this afternoon.”
Carmen hadn't heard back from Aubree. With no guarantee that Aubree would show up at her exhibition, she
decided to deliver the invitation in person.
Of course, Carmen knew full well how things stood between her and Aubree Miller. Even if she went in person
and begged on her knees, Aubree might not agree to go.
“Have you found the people | tasked you to find?” Carmen asked haughtily.
