Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany

Chapter 611

“Quickly! Start the car!” Zoe urged again, clearly anxious.

Sidney hesitated momentarily, torn between taking down the attackers and escaping in the car. With a resigned sigh, he slammed his foot on the gas, and the car sped off, leaving the pursuing group choking on dust and exhaust fumes.

They were safe.

Zoe heaved a sigh of relief. Wiping the sweat from her face, she said, “Thank you.”

Sidney kept driving, not intending to stop, and asked, “What trouble have you gotten into this time? Do you need me to help you sort it out?”

“No need, no need.” Zoe waved her hand, accustomed to such situations from before. “By the way, drop me off at the intersection ahead. Those people won’t catch up. I’ll head back on my own.”

“What if they are still around?” Sidney glanced at her, ”

they’re waiting on your way home, do you think you can escape?”

Zoe fell silent. The spot where Brittany had cornered her was the only route she could take home. It was likely that Brittany had gathered information about her address beforehand, which was why she and her group were waiting there. Returning now would increase the chances of being caught.

Zoe ran her fingers through her hair, her sharp eyes catching sight of a hardware store by the roadside. She shouted, “It’s fine, I’ll stop by this store to get something for self–defense. Besides, I can’t keep hiding from them. I’ll fight my way through iff can’t avoid it!”

Sidney’s eye he asked.

twitched. He couldn’t help but give Zoe another once–over, his gaze filled with doubt. “Are you a girl for sure?”

Zoe glared at him skeptically. “What, you want to fight?” she retorted..

“Alright, you are,” Sidney said, finally pulling over to the side of the road.

Zoe exited the car and headed straight for the hardware store. She picked out a sturdy wrench and bought homemade pepper spray for self–defense. Her actions were familiar as if she had done this many times before, which made Sidney chuckle.

Standing not far away, Zoe looked pretty cute with her short, fluffy hair and chubby appearance. Her large eyes revealed anyone close to her could sense the vibrant energy and liveliness she radiated. every emotion, and

Sidney had once before mistakenly believed Zoe was about to end her life by jumping into the river. Her tear–filled eyes made her appear fragile and sorrowful. Aside from that moment, however, Zoe was like a hero, handling everything independently with strength and resilience.

Sidney squinted, a different thought quietly spreading through his mind. He became somewhat distracted, unable to resist gently pressing his hand to his chest. ‘It feels like my heart is racing?‘ he thought.

He was momentarily stunned but snapped out of it when his shoulder was suddenly tapped. Turning around, he found Zoe looking at him with a strange expression. She said bluntly, “Your face just now looked a bit… distracted? What are you thinking about? It’s still broad daylight.”

Sidney was taken aback, his expression darkening involuntarily. “Did you get everything? Can we leave now?”

I’ve got everything,” Zoe replied.

“Then let’s get in the car.” Perhaps to burn off some of his frustration, Sidney drove at full speed. In less than five minutes, the sleek car had already returned to the alley where they had started.

Brittany was fuming with anger. She had brought so many people, yet Zoe had managed to escape. It was infuriating. Just as she was fuming, she saw the sports car speeding back. The person who exited the car was Zoe.

Brittany’s eyes lit up and shouted, “Oh, so you dare come back! Girls, get her!”

The group of girls quickly surrounded Zoe. Everyone was focused on the confrontation, and none noticed that the person in the driver’s seat was anyone other than the infamous heir of the Pauley family from Lovell City.

Sidney felt a headache coming on. Rubbing his forehead, he stepped out of the car. “Had enough fun?” he asked, but it was unclear who he was directed at.

Zoe tightly gripped the pepper spray, eager to use it on the approaching group. Just as she was about to strike, she heard Sidney’s words and frowned. “Stay back!” Zoe warned. It would be a wide–area attack, and it wouldn’t be good if she accidentally injured him.

Little did Zoe know, Sidney’s words weren’t meant for her. Brittany suddenly froze, her previously aggressive demeanor disappearing. She lowered her head and walked up to Sidney, whispering, “Sidney, what are you doing here?”

Zoe was stunned after realizing they knew each other. “So, both of you team up?” she asked.

‘Oh no, that’s not great. Since Brittany is Sidney’s cousin, he would choose to help her, not an outsider like me… she thought.

Zoe clenched the bottle tightly in her hand. She wasn’t sure if the pepper spray had spilled, but her eyes started to sting, making her uncomfortable. Just then, a large hand snatched the bottle from her grip. Sidney’s face was suddenly inches from hers.

Zoe stood her ground, her tone cold and firm. “If you want to fight, then fight.”

Brittany felt a surge of satisfaction in her heart. She gently tugged at Sidney’s sleeve, flattering him, “Sidney, you’re the best. I knew you’d help me!”

The next moment, Sidney looked at Brittany confusedly, then retorted, “Help you? Are we that familiar?”

After speaking, he turned and walked off with Zoe, not forgetting to look back and warn, “Get lost. If something like this happens again, you’ll know the consequences.” The Pauley family was never someone to be messed with.

The group of girls was utterly stunned. They gathered around Brittany and asked, “What’s going on? Why would Mr. Pauley scold you

and side with an outsider? Are you not his cousin?”

“Exactly, it’s a classic case of him siding with someone outside the family.” one added.

Amidst the voices of those defending her, Brittany’s eyes reddened with anger. “Don’t ask me! Who am I supposed to ask? Haven’t you heard? Get lost! All of you, get lost!” she shouted, and everyone quickly scattered.

Meanwhile, Sidney sent Zoe straight home. Feeling dizzy from pepper spray or something else, Zoe looked at him blankly and asked, “Aren’t you Brittany’s cousin? If so, why did you help me?”

“I don’t admit to being her cousin,” Sidney explained indifferently. “We’re distantly related, and if I had to acknowledge every distant relative, I wouldn’t be able to keep track.”

Zoe suddenly understood and said, “I see.”

For some reason, her mood lightened a bit. Given her past issues with Brittany, she might have also resent Sidney if they had been close. But hearing that wasn’t the case eased her mind considerably.

Zoe looked up, smiling, and asked, “Well, thanks for helping me today. Would you like to come in for a drink?”

“Sure.” Sidney agreed without hesitation, not intending to be res
