“It's hopeless having a discussion with you Grace. You're one to always know everything that is going on in the school, yet you have a hard time believing it." Kara snorted angrily at Grace. Among their group, Grace was the only one who normally thought differently from them. The way she thinks usually makes the rest question their friendship with her. And they all know that Grace never really liked Sophia but they had no idea why other than the thought that Grace might be jealous of Sophia.“Isn't it a good thing to have someone different from all three of you. You're right, I don't believe such baseless rumors even though I'm the first to know about it. You want to know why? That's because I feel like everyone here in this school has secrets they hide, but because of their fear they use someone else as a scapegoat and lead a fake life and reputation.” Grace plainly replied.Since they were sitting in a different place, Sophia and her friends hadn't seen Rose and Leo walk into the ca
Although her parents weren't divorced, Sandra's father was naturally based in his country to maintain his restaurant business while Sandra was in California with her mother who was also helping her husband to manage his restaurant branch he had opened in America. The Kim restaurant is ranked as one of the top best restaurants in California.Rose was a bit amazed seeing how carefree Sandra was. Maybe in this lifetime, she will have more than Alisa as her friend. Who knows she might end up having friends. True Friends.Rose went back to her seat beside Kehlani who was already in the classroom. “Roseline, I brought you this from the cafeteria." Kehlani said as she passed Rose a small paper bag." What is this?” Rose asked as she reached to collect the item and looked at Kehlani."I figured that you might have felt uncomfortable when you followed senior Leo to the cafeteria earlier. So I got this side snack and brought it for you since you might not eat well.” As a person who loves to ke
Region Funds Bank might be a popular bank but it couldn't be compared to Elite banks who were more superior to them.“It's okay." Rose nodded. She had been expecting a call from them yesterday after she visited Elite Bank but when she didn't get a call from them, she guessed that they weren't able to find out yet.“Miss Gray, if it wouldn't be too much of trouble, we would like you to pay a visit to our bank. There are some things that need to be done since you're in possession of the card." Gustav told Rose.Rose already knew that it was the same thing she did yesterday at Elite Bank they want her to do as well. Since William is not around Rose decided to use this opportunity to arrange everything before he arrived. " I will be there.” Rose told Gustav and hung up the call."Mister, there is a change of destination. Please take me to the Region Funds Bank.” Rose told the taxi driver." Alright.” The driver nodded his head and took a turn back to the direction of Region Funds Bank.R
“Boss, I've brought Miss Gray." Assistant Lex announced after they walked into the office.Gustav Holst raised his head up from what he was doing and glanced at his assistant before his gaze landed on the beautiful young girl beside him. He was taken aback by surprise when that young girl was the Miss Gray he was talking to earlier. He hadn't noticed her voice because he was more focused on the work he had in front of him. “Miss Gray?" He stared at Rose as wanting to confirm that she was really the person he had spoken to.“Yes. I'm guessing you're Mr. Gustav, who had called me earlier?" Rose calmly replied as she stared at the middle aged man who looked to be around in his late thirties.Gustav quickly stood up from his seat when he heard the same voice that had spoken on the phone. It was really her. “You can take your leave, Lex." He looked at assistant Lex who nodded his head and walked out of the room.“Please, have a seat, ma. Forgive me for not coming to pick you up personall
Just as Rose stood outside the bank ready to hail a cab back home, she received a phone call from Nancy herself.“Hello, sister Nancy." Rose answered the call.“Rose, it's good to hear your voice. I just wanted to inform you that your credit card is ready and you can come and collect it at the bank. Perhaps, I'd prefer if you could come today because there is someone I want you to meet.” Nancy's voice spoke from the other line of the call. " Someone?” Rose muttered, raising a brow at what Nancy was talking about. However, she couldn't hear a low voice in the background of the call as well.“I'm free right now, so I will be there in a while." She finally responded to Nancy.“Wow, that's great. I will be expecting you." Nancy replied in an ecstatic voice when she heard Rose's response.“Hm." Rose nodded her head and hung up the call before waving her hand at the taxi that was passing by.“Nancy, you don't have to pressure the young girl. If she can't make it today I can always come ano
“There are only a handful of individuals in California holding this card and right now you are one of those people on the list.” Nancy remarked with a pleasant smile on her face." Thank you so much.” Rose grinned and nodded her head in appreciation." Not at all, in fact it's my greatest pleasure. I'm truly very glad that I was able to be of assistance to you and please do not hesitate to give me a phone call if you require my service to resolve the issue. I would be more delighted if you can even consider me as your bank account manager as well.” Nancy offered. It was obvious and clear that her intention was to have a closer relationship with Rose.“Sure, if you don't mind then I accept the offer." Rose nodded her head in agreement. She didn't have any reason to reject Nancy's offer to personally assist with the issues relating to her bank account. She even considered it as an advantage because Nancy was the most superior staff member of the bank and it was also the same reason she
“Don't you think you're been unfair, Grandpa?" Rose suddenly asked after she sat down. “Am I?" Mr. Reyes asked, confused by what she meant.“You don't have to keep addressing me as Miss Gray. I call you Grandpa, so call me Rose as well." She said, making Mr. Reyes chuckled at her.“Alright then, Rose.” He nodded without arguing with her."Thank you.” She nodded at him before turning to look at Nancy who had been quietly hearing them. "I have a favor to ask, sister Nancy.” Rose told her.Nancy sat up properly when she heard Rose and looked at her before she spoke. “Please speak." She nodded at Rose.“I would like to have the information of where all the money that was sent to my mother's account came from.” Rose requested for the same thing she had asked Gustav earlier. Nancy paused for a while as she stared at Rose. She was not expecting that would be the question Rose would ask from her. As for those records, she was not sure about where the money came from, only that the account
" Honestly, I felt the same. Sometimes, I get the feeling that I'm conversing with an adult rather than a teenager.” Nancy also added." Let's both work hard to find out the source then. You can go back so that you don't keep your guests waiting for too long.” Mr. Reyes told Nancy when they arrived at his car.“Alright then, please have a safe trip back." Nancy nodded her head and bowed at Mr. Reyes before turning back to the elevator.Rose, on the other hand, had finished calling Paige and told her that she was okay. After hanging up the call, she decided to continue playing her game while waiting for Nancy to come back.A few minutes later, the door opened and Nancy strolled back into the office. “I'm sorry for keeping you waiting, Rose." She said in an apologetic tone as she sat down in front of Rose.“It's okay. Thanks to my little friend here, I was not bored as you can see." Rose casually waved the phone screen which she was using to play a game at Nancy.Nancy couldn't help bu
