Since he cto Alverton, it was likely that he had struck skind of deal with Kayla. Otherwise, how could he
be so brazen?
This deal was undoubtedly aimed at Felicia.
It was good that he came.
Shawn probably thought it would be easy to commit murder and bury secrets in a rundown place like Alverton.
Coincidentally, she had the sidea.
Felicia chuckled softly to herself and concealed the flicker of murderous intent in her heart as she said to Lucas,
"Okay, | got it. Thank you for the message!" Lucas completed his task and bounced away happily, clutching the
sweet potato.
The training program that was supposed to begin in the afternoon was delayed. Upon learning about the
situation in Alverton, the vice principal frowned and found himself in a dilemma.
The college had organized this trip to carry out donation and assistance work for impoverished elementary

The village's school was bright and imposing, completely unreflective of the poverty they were supposed to
address.
In other words, the village didn't need assistance or donations.
This put the vice principal in a tough spot.
Charles smiled warmly and said, "Our village truly doesn't require donations. We appreciate the sentiment, but
other places need it more. Why not donate the supplies to them?"
Hearing this, the vice principal quickly asked, "Are there other villages nearby?"
"Yes. Behind our mountain, there's a village called Hillfort. It has only 16 households, and they're quite poor.
Hope Elementary School only has one teacher teaching 22 students of different ages. But the village is on the
mountain, and the only way to get there is a mountain road.
"If you're willing to go, | can gather the strong young men from our village to guide you and help carry the
supplies!"
As soon as Charles finished
speaking, the vice principal eagerly agreed, saying, "That sounds great Please arrange for smanpower. We
have two large trucks of donated materials to move, and 20 of us won't be able to carry them all. Thank you so
much!"
"No need to mention it," Charles replied, waving his hands. "You're doing good deeds; that makes you good
people! We're just lending a small hand. It's not a big deal.” Though he said this, the vice principal expressed his
thanks multiple times.
Even though they initially cunder the guise of helping Alverton, they ultimately failed to do so.
Now, they needed to transport all the donated goods to Hillfort and had to rely on the villagers' help. The
students would still need to stay with the villagers at night too.
In essence, they were not only giving
nothing to the villagers but also
taking advantage of them. The vice principal felt a bit embarrassed and suggested paying for
accommodations, but Charles declined.

"Oh, we villagers are not so complicated. We pride ourselves on our hospitality! We're very welcoming. Please
don't mention money-it makes us uncomfortable!" Thus, the arrangements were finalized.
At 2:00 pm, alkthe students gathered
alongside the sturdy villagers from
Alverton, and together, they unloaded the two large trucks with supplies. Then, with their loads, they set off in a
grand procession toward Hillfort and delivered those supplies there.
From the mountaintop, the scene looked reminiscent of ants working together.
Felicia was also part of the group.
She carried two large bags filled with clothes. They were heavy, and after walking such a long distance, her arms
felt sore and tired.
She deliberately positioned herself at the back of the line.
She knew that Shawn was following closely behind.
She was just waiting to see if he would dare to make a move.
