Chapter 24 Thea's past...!

last update Last Updated: 2024-11-17 15:09:56

Author's point of view...

For a long time, Thea hadn’t gone on outings with her classmates, not since an unlucky incident that happened when she was still in junior high.

Diana and Nick had worried about their daughter’s social life, not knowing if she was avoiding invitations or simply wasn’t invited. Seeing her go on this trip filled Diana with relief. She almost couldn't contain her excitement.

Thea was taken aback by her mom's enthusiasm. She chuckled.

"No Mom, it's all set. I won't need anything else. A friend of mine has taken care of all the preparations."

"That’s so kind of them!" Diana's ears perked up and she slightly blinked, asking further,

"Is it a boy or a girl? What’s your friend’s name?" Diana asked with a playful curiosity that only mothers seem to have.

Thea casually walked into her room and removed the towel wrapped on her head and started drying her hair.

She replied casually,

"It’s a group of us going together. There are many top students in m

    Author's point of view... "What the hell...!!" Kevin almost jolted from the place where he was standing and started rubbing his eyes. Aaron was annoyed. Kevin was an expert in creating a drama. "Is that really her or my eyes are playing games with me...?" Kevin mumbled in disbelief. Aaron rolled his eyes, he was sitting opposite Kevin and couldn't see what he was gawking at, but the way Kevin behaved, Aaron was sure he was exaggerating about something useless. "Will you stop this," Aaron groaned. "I am not seeing things, am I?" Kevin ignored Aaron's words. Aaron's mouth twitched. "Did you see a ghost, Kevin?" he mocked irritatingly. "No...but it's more unbelievable than seeing a ghost. Look at her..." Kevin replied, pointing at someone behind Aaron, still in shock, but Aaron had no intention on getting into his crab. He sighed, shaking his head. "A girl, right?...Are you serious, Kevin?" Aaron smacked and Kevin immediately added, "Just look at her and I am sure y

    Author's point of view... They drove in silence for sometime and soon Mark, dozed off, his head soon resting on Kevin’s shoulder and on top of him lay the trouble maker's head. Finally...! Thea felt her ears were in peace. When the car was finally peaceful, Aaron turned to Thea. He had been glancing at her sneakily, his hand travelled through his hair. He wanted to talk to her but didn't know what to say. Clearing his throat, he asked, “Have you been camping before?” In his mind he sighed. What kind of idiotic question did he ask...! How could a simple girl like her go camping?? Thea was staring out of the window, looking at how beautiful this world was. She turned around and thought for a while before replying. Aaron was sure about the answer. She wouldn't have been to the places like these. It must be her first time. “Not more often but sometimes, I do,” she said with a hint of nostalgia, her mind roaming back to her memories. Aaron was shocked. Did she?? “I’ve

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 27 A cat...! or something else...?

    Author's point of view... “Don’t fall too far behind, okay? And if you need help, just call us... We will be slow to keep up with you...” Aaron said while wearing his own backpack. Thea was amused at how much Aaron underestimated her but played along. Is that because she was a girl?? she scoffed internally. “Don’t worry, I’ll keep up.” She didn't want to show off but it didn't mean she wasn't offended. Soon the school buses arrived at the first camping spot after them. Though the same mountain, there were several routes to hike. Aaron had planned a special way to go up, different from the other usual one that the school authorities had planned to take. The group began their hike. Kevin, full of energy, kept darting around and calling out, causing Thea to stifle a frustrated laugh. He had been picking up small pebbles and throwing them at Thea and Mark. He was getting on her nerves. Heaving a sigh, she stopped. She wanted to play with him. “Stop yelling, Kevin!” she

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 28 She was here to cling on to him...!

    Author's point of view... "Help!" Several cries for help came from the forest, that sounded like women. What the hell...! Who is that? Could it be some animal chasing after the other students? Everyone thought except for Thea, who was busy arguing with Mike. "Did you just say cat? Then why are people shouting out there?" "You'll get to know soon"Mike replied casually. Thea rolled her eyes in irritation. He never gives a reliable explanation. But if that was a wild animal as what she thought, this would be dangerous. Thea stepped forward, ready to attack whatever was coming but Aaron rushed to her and stood right before her as if shielding her from any danger coming their way. "You all stay here, I'll go check it..." Aaron stood ahead and was about to go take a look. "Help..." "Help...!" someone cried again. Kevin immediately grabbed a stick from the ground. "Who's calling for help?" Mark tensed up as well, looking around with wide eyes. "I don't have an

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 29 How dare she steal my man...!!

    Author's point of view...! "You are really something." Thea scoffed, "You actually mistook a plastic bag for a giant beast or cat or whatever?? Lily, are you so bored or really that scared, or were you just looking for an excuse to jump into Aaron's arms?" Thea taunted. Lily’s cheeks turned bright red, and she glared at Thea furiously. "What are you implying, Thea?" Thea casually threw that plastic cover aside and brushed her hands. She didn't say anything else but that look on her face gave it all. "Exactly what I said," Thea responded calmly, meeting Lily's angry gaze without flinching. Kevin started giggling. Lily’s embarrassment deepened, and she quickly tried to defend herself. "So what if I thought it was something dangerous? It was dark inside those bushes and I was genuinely frightened. Who wouldn’t be scared of a wild animal?" She threw a glance at Kevin, who was equally rattled earlier. "Didn't you see that. Kevin was scared too," she added with a smirk.

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 30 Do we know each other...?

    Author's point of view... Thea stood up and strolled towards the nearby stream, seemingly bored but her eyes widened as she looked down on the wet ground nearby."Oh my..." She had noticed something alarming, a set of fresh foot marks of the same beast that she saw earlier, near the water’s edge. Unlike the other one, this print was clear and fresh. It was clear that something was present in those woods and that animal was in the area, possibly even close to their planned route. She slightly bent over to take a better look. "It must be a Leopold or a Panther...! It's huge..." Thea mumbled while studying the print. "What are you looking at, Thea?" Kevin asked, coming over with his plate, still in his hands. She jolted awkwardly and frowned. "Can't you be normal just for once...!" she smacked. Kevin grinned. He couldn't...!! "Are you looking for fish? There's probably no fish in this stream, right?" he said peeking into the stream, oblivious to what Thea was truly o

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 31 Yes, I am...!

    Author's point of view... Lily gave her friend a look, and her friend immediately understood. Serra made a gesture with her thumb, then took the bag off another girl and walked up to Thea. She didn't need anything, Thea is always easy to bully, anyway. "Hi, I'm Serra," Serra said forging a fake smile. Thea, who was walking in the lead, turned around and looked at her from top to bottom, scrutinizing. "What do you want? Do we know each other?" Thea asked nonchalantly. Serra's smile faltered momentarily, but she kept her act going. "Yes, of course. I know you. Don't you remember me? We're all classmates, after all. We played together a month ago." Serra's eyes flickered as she collected the memory; even a playful smile tugged on her lips. "We had quite the fun back then," she mused. Thea narrowed her eyes as the flashes of her past entered her brain. During one of the sports periods, these Class A girls had forced Thea to crouch before them and howl like a dog. Ever

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 32 Danger?? What danger??

    Author's point of view... The sky gradually darkened, and the forest’s dim light became even fainter. Thea glanced at the sky and hoped that everyone would remain safe through the night. "This is the spot," Aaron announced as they reached a small platform, studying the map. "It’s a transfer point and the best place to set up camp. There’s a town nearby where we can resupply tomorrow. Everyone, find a good place to pitch your tents now before this area gets crowded." Soon the other hikers joined them to set up their camp. The teachers, however, had big tents whereas all the others brought small ones. Their tents occupied almost the entire platform. Mark and Kevin had already taken out their tents. Mark approached Aaron and Thea, saying, "Kevin and I will head to the town to buy supplies. You two stay here and set up your tents." Kevin hurried to them and asked, looking at Thea in particular. "Do you need anything? I will buy it for you" "No need. I have everything t

    Author's point of view... After the auction ended, Dave left with Thea. Just as they stepped out of the venue, a Bentley stopped right before them and the window scrolled down. Before they could see who it was, Ray popped his head out and said in a sophisticated tone with an dignified smile spread on his face. "Hi, Miss Rodgers, what a coincidence. We met again, so fast" Thea held back the urge to roll her eyes. Coincidence...! Is he tired of living? He is stalking her for sure. Dave however was burning with rage. He had been noticing how Ray Charles was so busy wooing his girlfriend. Oh, I mean, the only girl friend he had. "I happened to hear that officer Anderson had to go for some urgent business. How about I take you back to your place?" Thea raised her eyebrows, this man is very well informed. But before Thea could respond, Dave grabbed her hand and pulled across the Bentley. "No thanks, I am capable enough to take my woman home" Dave smacked and Thea felt goos

    Author's point of view... After the auction, everyone was escorted to the banquet hall on the third floor of the building. The evening went on with music, dance, and dinner. Though they both didn't want to dance, the circumstances demanded something else. As the greatest benefactor, the host insisted that Dave had to dance. He looked at Thea silently. Thea sighed as she watched the couples swirling across the grand ballroom. She shrugged her shoulders dismissively. "Don't look at me that way. I don't know how to dance. Besides, look at the heels I am wearing, your foot might get fractured if I were to step on you..." she giggled as she said those words. The music was enchanting, the ambiance elegant, and yet, all she wanted was to slip away unnoticed. She had zero interest in dancing, especially not with Dave, whose persistence was starting to test her patience. “You’re not getting out of this,” Dave had a solemn expression on his face as he said that, leaning down to her

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 65 The mind reading crystal...!!

    Author's point of view... At that moment, Ray wasn’t expecting to see the price rise so dramatically and so he was genuinely puzzled. His manager was even more flustered. "Sir, are you sure?" he asked Ray and Ray shot him a deadly glare. Backing down now will be like losing a battle. He will never do so. The host on the stage announced, "$240,000 once, $240,000 twice..." “Looks like this locket is going to fall back into Mr. Anderson’s hands.” everyone mumbled to each other. "Dave Anderson rarely attends these events. He’s not leaving empty-handed tonight.” “But it seems like even the young master of the Charles family is interested in that item. Look how pale he looks?” While the crowd whispered and speculated, Ray raised his hand confidently, "$400,000." The bid nearly doubled, and the audience gasped. The Charles family had always been known for their lavish spending, and tonight was no exception. Dave turned to Thea with a sly smile. He grasped a good show

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 64 A piece of her core crystal...!

    Author's point of view... "Yes, that's the same thing" Mike confirmed and Thea glared at the display. She clenched her fists on her dress. Despite the thin fabric of the dress, her nails dug into her palm. "That...!" she couldn't say anything more. The beautiful red crystal of the locket sparkled and Thea gritted in frustration and disbelief. She never once expected to see that thing in the human world. How could that be? The world seem to be swirling before her until the reality sank in. She slowly understood what exactly might have happened. "That bitch...!" she cursed someone in her mind. That red precious stone on the locket was a piece of her own core crystal, which she lost a long time ago. As Maria, she gave that to her only friend, Sabrina as a gift. A core crystal is as precious as someone's life in the monster land and she was clearly not allowed to give it to anyone. Giving it to someone means splitting their power to half and yet Maria gave her core cry

    Author's point of view... "Hello ma'am, Will you pay by card or cash?" the employee following the host stood in forward. Thea didn't know what she should do. Ray immediately stood up and gestured his manager to step forward. He took the card from him and extended it to the employee. The employee didn't take the card but was stunned for a moment, staring at someone behind. "I will pay for her" Thea felt someone hugging her from behind and was dumbfounded. She was sure that it was Ray who was trying to take advantage of her in this kind of situation until she heard that voice. "Dave..." she instantly opened her eyes and turned to look back at him. A surprised smile tugged on her flustered cheeks. "You are here!!" she exclaimed. She was genuinely terrified. It wasn't a situation that she could handle. This entire thing was like a wild ride on a roller coaster. "Sorry I am late..." he whispered into her ears with a smile while he handed over his black VIP card to the em

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 62 Unexpected bid...!

    Author's point of view... Dave walked towards the VIP rooms on the first floor and checked every one of them. He was sure that the hideous figure he just saw was too familiar to ignore. There, in one of those rooms, stood an elegant lady holding a fan that covered half of her face, wearing a pair of sunglasses on her eyes even in that dimly lit room when there was no need for that and a scarf wrapped across her head. Dave sighed. "Mom...! Can you please be more sensible!" Louren giggled but turned away her face, "Young man you got the wrong person..." Dave was speechless. He didn't know what to say. He walked over to her and pulled the fan away from her hands. She laughed. "If you were going to attend this event, why did you force me to come?" he demanded, rather frustratingly. Lauren tilted her head to the other side and frowned, feigning anger. "So what if I attend? Isn't it your duty as a member of the Anderson family to show your face at such huge events?" She s

    Author's point of view... Thea opened the mirror in front of the passenger seat and checked herself. Cherry was very good at his work...! She thought. The more she looked at herself, the more she recognized her old face. It was strange that after applying just a little bit of makeup, she was looking like herself, Maria. Did they look alike from the beginning? Dave noticed her puzzled expression and tried to start a conversation. "Ugh, I'll definitely be in the newspaper after today," As if smacking her out of her thoughts, Dave sighed. "Why is that?" Thea asked. Dave shot a quick glance at her direction again and said in a low tone, "There will be many reporters there. I am sure that they'll write that Dave, the richest man in the city has finally brought a mysterious woman as his date to the event" Thea raised an eyebrow. There was a glint of amusement in his eyes. Was he actually stressed? He didn't look like that at all. "After this, my parents will know

    Author's point of view... After getting ready, Dave walked out of the male's dressing room. He picked a black color plain suit for himself but even in that simple suit, he looked like a Greek God thanks to his well built body and deadly handsome face. He was about to go check on Thea, to urge Cherry to hurry up when his phone buzzed in his pockets. He took it out and stared at the screen, his handsome face frowned replacing his earlier cheerful expression to an irritated one. "Hello my little boy..." a cheerful voice echoed in his ears but he squinted his eyes shut, in frustration. "Mom..." he bellowed, "Will you please stop calling me that!!" he yelled and Louren giggled in satisfaction. She loved teasing her son, especially when he is angry with her. "I will call you that" she stated, matter of factly, "until you get a girl for yourself, you will be my little boy..." she added in an amused tone. Dave clenched his jaws but was speechless. His mother can be so annoying som

    Author's point of view... "Okay, then I'll leave her to you..." Dave walked out of the room to get ready and Cherry escorted Thea towards a seat not far away. This was his personal space where only his VIP clients were allowed and Dave's family was one of his regular clients. "Sit here, kid and please remove that mask of yours off from your face." Cherry said. He dramatically put his hand on his chest and added, "I braced myself. Don't worry I won't panick this time..." Though he was just joking around, his tone was more like mockery. He was an over dramatic and humourous person who can taunt you without being noticed. He laughed and Thea raised her eyebrows. "So...he thinks I am ugly...!Huh??" she thought and smiled to herself, "Let's see what his reaction would be when he sees my real face!" She slowly reached out for the mask and removed it. Cherry was busy arranging everything that was needed for this session, with his back facing Thea. "What products do you
