view moreThe scorching sun and the sound of cicadas broke the sky.
A classroom on the second floor of Rising Sun Middle School.
Mr. Smith stood on the podium, giving a lecture with a triangular ruler. His coat was mostly wet with sweat.
It was so hot that it seemed to bubble. The fan on the ceiling was running and making a lot of noise. In this high temperature, the wind seemed to be boiling.
The students below also looked sleepy.
He couldn't help being a little grumpy.
"Look at the blackboard." Noticing the state of the girls sitting in the third row, Mr. Smith frowned slightly and slapped the blackboard harder with the ruler.
"Do you hear me? Look at the blackboard! "
Several students who were about to fall asleep suddenly woke up, opened their eyes wide, and forced themselves to look at the blackboard.
One girl did not seem to hear, still bowed her head and painted on the paper with a pencil.
She had a beautiful and innocent face, which was more lovely because she was still young and childish.
Sitting in a good posture, quiet and gentle, she seemed to be the kind of obedient student that the teacher liked best.
At this time, she treated the teacher on the podium as air.
Mr. Smith frowned deeper and continued to work out the math problem for the students. Seeing that the problem was almost finished, she had no sign of raising her head, Mr. Smith couldn’t hold his anger anymore and slapped the triangular ruler on the desk.
The plastic ruler collided with the wooden desk and made a loud noise.
The sound frightened the whole class at the same time, and the atmosphere was stiffened by a roar that followed.
"Ashley!"
Ashley, who was named, looked up and looked at Mr. Smith for two seconds.
Then she put down her pen and stood up consciously.
Mr. Smith held his temper and said, "what did I just say?"
Ashley looked at the draft on the blackboard and looked calm, “four corners equals 72 degrees."
Accustomed to her being such a good student all the time, Mr. Smith was not deceived this time. He patted the desk with a ruler and sneered, "I haven't talked about that yet!"
"…"
Ashley began to feel a little nervous, "then you call me to ... "
Mr. Smith asked, "Why do you think I called you?"
Ashley thought for a few seconds and guessed, "couldn’t you work it out?"
Mr. Smith, “…"
Ashley, "do you want me to teach you?"
Mr. Smith, "?"
"I see."
Ashley looked at the blackboard and said, "because angle one equals angle two, AB is parallel to CD, and the two lines are parallel to each other and complement each other's inner angles…"
Mr. Smith could not bear it, "wow, you are so amazing, you can even take my place!"
Being interrupted, Ashley looked a little more at a loss. Her lips opened, and only after a few seconds did she hesitate to say, "but I can't take your job."
"…"
The whole class was quiet for three seconds and roared with laughter.
Mr. Smith was furious, "Shut up! Be quiet! "
The children were still laughing, the classroom became as noisy as a market, and several teenagers in the back row were even booing--.
"Mr. Smith, I agree! Let Ashley lead our class! "
"Does that mean we don't have to do our homework?"
"Can I just skip school?"
Mr. Smith shouted, "shut up!"
"Ashley." Mr. Smith looked at Ashley again, breathing more heavily, trying not to be too misbehaved, but he finally roared with anger and said, "tell your parents to come here tomorrow!"
The bell rang.
Mr. Smith left the classroom with a poker face without looking back.
It happened to be the last class, and most of the students packed up ahead of time and left.
"Why did you piss Mr. Smith Bold off again?" As soon as the bell rang, Ashley’s friend Bella leaned over to her position. "Don't you know that he likes to call parents? It's only halfway through this month, and your mother has been here twice. "
Ashley stuffed the books on her desk into her schoolbag and zipped it hard, “I don't know what I did to him."
Bella stared, "You don't know?"
Ashley looked irritable and muttered, "didn't I answer?"
"Didn't you deliberately ask for a beating in that answer?"
Bella laughed out loud, "Why, I can't take your job. Don't talk about him. I want to hit you, too. "
Ashley murmured, "Then you are as unreasonable as he is."
"Oh, seriously." Bella said, "Why don't you listen to the lecture and get caught all the time? "
"Don't you think Mr. Bold sounds like hypnosis?" Ashley put on her schoolbag and yawned. "If I listened carefully and didn't find something to do, I must have fallen asleep."
"…"
‘That makes sense.’
Bella noticed several boys standing at the school gate. She turned around and mentioned another thing, “Oh, right, are you going to the bookstore?"
Ashley glanced at her and said, "Why?"
Bella explained, “Ethan asked you out, and there are several boys from Class 6. Let's go together."
Ashley, “No."
"Why?" Bella gently bumped her shoulder and said vaguely, "Ethan is quite handsome."
The two girls left the classroom side by side.
Hearing this, Ashley looked a little indescribable, "Go to the hospital and have a check on your eyes."
Bella was unconvinced, "What happened to my eyes? I'm not the only one who thinks he's handsome! A lot of people think so. "
Ashley nodded and suggested again, “Then you can go in a group."
"…"
Ashley then took out her cell phone from her schoolbag.
Opening the message editing window, she hesitated and sent a text message to her brother, Liam, “Brother, you haven't been home for a long time. When are you going home? Can you come back tomorrow? I miss you so much, TAT.”
Bella did not pay attention to her behavior, said disappointedly, “Are you really not going?"
"No."
"They are all waiting at the school gate."
"Go if you want."
Ashley said absent-mindedly, "I'm not in the mood today."
Bella, “Ah, because of the matter of calling parents? So what are you gonna do? Why don't you tell your father this time? "
Ashley shook her head. "They're not coming."
"What? Why? "
Ashley was still staring at her mobile phone, waiting for Liam's reply, “I won't tell them."
Bella reminded her, "But if your parents don't come, Mr. Bold will call them, too."
"It's all right." The latter sentence "I'll tell my brother" hasn't been said yet.
The text message just came in.
Liam: [? ]
Liam: [Nope. ]
"…"
Arriving at the school gate, Bella said goodbye to her and then went to Ethan's group of people.
Ethan's expression faded, stared at Ashley's back, and asked, "Ashely won't go?"
Bella shook her head, “She was scolded by the teacher and was in a bad mood."
Ethan lifted his eyebrow, “Has she been called a parent again?"
Bella, “Yeah."
"…"
Ethan stayed in place for two seconds, then suddenly raised his foot and walked in the direction of the school.
Another boy, John, hurriedly shouted to him, “Hey! What are you doing?! "
Ashley continued to text Liam, angrily denouncing him for being heartless and ignoring his 13-year-old sister, who was still unable to take care of herself and abandoned her in order to go to college and let her fend for herself.
She waited for a while.
Liam didn't reply to her.
She waited a little longer.
The heartless Liam still did not reply to her.
Completely disillusioned, Ashley got on the bus home and began to think about how to tell her parents the situation for the third time this month.
‘What should I say?
What about she was envied by the teacher because she was too excellent?
Or, what she said in class caused the teacher's misunderstanding and gave him a sense of crisis in his career?
Or, it is too hot, the teacher is too bored, and wants to invite parents to drink tea …...’
Ashley scratched her head impatiently.
‘It doesn't seem to work.’
As soon as she looked up, she found that she had arrived at the station.
Ashley got out of the bus and walked slowly towards home.
After entering the house and seeing the familiar environment, Ashley's scalp was numb and she felt even more unable to say it.
Just at this time, her mother Grace’s voice came from the kitchen, “Is that you, Ash?"
Ashley responded and slowly took off her shoes.
Because of this full of worries, she didn't notice that there was an extra pair of sneakers on the shoe rack that she had never seen before.
Grace called her again, "Ash, come here for a minute. Do mom a favor. "
Ashley was still thinking about how to confess, vaguely said, “What?"
"Take this plate of fruit to your brother's room."
Grace came out of the kitchen and said, "Your brother is back."
"Ok…Huh? "
Ashley suddenly regained her spirits and raised her tone by a little bit. "Brother is back?"
"Yes."
This unexpected development made Ashley unbelievable.
An overwhelming sense of surprise sprang up in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, the ruthless annoying elder brother has become the perfect elder brother image of cold on the outside and hot on the inside in Ashley's heart.
Grace was still talking, “Be careful when you go in. Your brother brought a…"
"All right, all right!"
Impatient to listen, Ashley took the fruit and ran to Liam's room. "I see!"
Looking at Ashley's extraordinarily enthusiastic figure today, she wondered, "What's going on with this kid today? "
Thinking that there was no need to be reprimanded by her parents, Ashley could not help bending her lips and pushing open the door of Liam's room.
The room was spacious and bright, and a lot of sunlight came in.
The breath was filled with a warm smell for a moment.
In an instant, the strong smell of cigarettes came in the face, a little choking, Ashley could not help coughing.
She wrinkled her face and swept around the room.
Where the light was weak, a thin man sat on the sofa next to the computer desk and looked down at his cell phone.
He looked dark with his back to the light. One hand on the side of the sofa, slender fingers holding a cigarette, but also burning scarlet light.
The figure was similar to that of Liam but unexpectedly strange.
Ashley stopped and blinked hesitantly, but the word "brother" in her mouth had not yet been called out.
The man raised his head.
She also saw what he looked like at this moment and held her breath for no reason.
The man's expression was light, the facial features were sharp, with a smile that can not reach the fundus on his face, he looked gentle but difficult to approach.
His light brown pupils were folded up with a touch of seduction.
They were completely different from her brother's dark eyes.
She thought she would see her brother, but she saw someone she didn't know, and her brother was still out of sight.
For a moment, Ashley's brain didn’t work and she didn't know how to react.
The scene seemed to freeze.
Both of them stayed where they were, and there was no extra movement.
It didn't take long.
The man lowered his eyes again and slowly suppressed the cigarette, looking lazy. He did not seem to have the desire to speak and got up silently to open the window for ventilation.
Looking at his behavior, Ashley shouted at a loss.
"Brother? "
Hearing this, the man moved and picked his eyebrows. He stared fixedly at Ashley. His beautiful eyes were covered with a gentle color, but also a little more playful.
Then he bent the corners of his lips and dragged his voice in tune.
"Yes?"
"…"
The response was like a bolt of lightning on Ashley's head.
Those uncertain things were clearly traced by the thoughts of her mind at this moment.
The brother she hasn’t seen in months should become like this.
She couldn't believe it at all, as if she was petrified, and it took her a long time to hold back a word, “You, you …"
Pausing for a few seconds, she swallowed hard and finished her words carefully, “Have you had plastic surgery?"
"..."
Candy was awakened when she felt the gust of wind on her face. She opened her eyes, surprisingly she was able to sleep tightly despite the restlessness she was feeling.She turned to the left of the bed where Kenneth lay down but he was no longer there. Candy sighed, she again focused her eyes on the outside of the window. A forced smile traced in her lips as she looked at the leaves on the tree like dancing with every blow of the wind on them. She suddenly felt envy of the leaves, they are free to do what they want. They are free to follow the direction they want to go, while she is like a puppet who only obeys the wishes of her husband, Kenneth.But why is that? What does she owe him to be submissive to think that he is the one who did her wrong? She will not let this man run her life in his palm, after all this tragic thing that happened to her right inside his household.Candy got up when she heard the door open. From there Kenneth emerged. He smiled affecti
Candy was anxious all day. Trying to figure out who that bastard is. She looked all around and in every corner of the house to see if there were hidden CCTV cameras that she could use to see who that man was but she was disappointed. Surprisingly, this huge house does not even have CCTV. Nowadays it is normal to have it even in ordinary houses.If there is no CCTV, what else can she do or how else she will know? Fingerprint… correct, she can know who entered their room by fingerprint, but how? She had to hire a forensic doctor to take fingerprints. She can pay for the service of this but there is another ‘how?’ How would she explain to the people living here that she needed to know who that man was?Candy dropped on the couch. Tears welled up in her eyes again. But she had to be brave, she couldn't just sit in a corner to cry and mourn all day for what happened to her.Candy heard someone turn the doorknob. She stood alert in front of the door
The surrounding was still dark when Candy woke up. She looked around, her eyes searching for the ruthless man who had sex with her while she was unconscious. Candy was trembling with fear. Who is that man? No one would dare enter their room but Kenneth. But why did he have to do that to her? Why does he even have to rape her? She can freely give herself to him. They have shared the ecstasy of love making many times. Oh… but it has never been love making… just sex…Candy got out of bed. Although she lost consciousness last night, now she can still feel the traces of every caress of the man's hand all over her body. She looked in the mirror and she was surprised to see hickeys on her chest.Candy's tears flowed. She felt that the man trampled her. She needs justice for what happened to her. But how would she explain to everyone what had happened? Will they believe her?Kenneth… she needs to talk to Kenneth. She was sure it was Kenneth.
When they arrived at home, Kian was busy drinking in the broad light. He was holding a glass of wine then walked towards them.Kenneth frowned when he saw Kian drinking in the middle of the day.“Is there something bothering you?” Kenneth curiously asked.“Not really. Hi, my beautiful sister-in-law.” Kian set his attention to her.She was about to say ‘hi’ when Kenneth cut her word.“Stop teasing her, Kian.” He stared at him intently.“I am not, brother. I am just stating a fact.”“I guess you're already drunk. Why don't you go to your room now?”“I want to talk to you.”“Okay, let's go to the library.”After saying this Kenneth walked straight to the library without even bidding goodbye to Candy. Instead, Kian does that thing.“Please excuse me as Candy.”“Sure.” She nodded.
Candy was furious but not with Kenneth but with herself. She was ashamed of herself because she gave in so quickly to his teasing. She needs to be firm and hard to him. She must not show him she was stumbling for it. She wouldn't let herself continued to be play and laugh at. Next time, she will spin it in her palms.Surprisingly she did, and awoke the next day to clear skies and sunshine.Kenneth was already up and dressed when she went downstairs. He sat on the living room, talking with his mother. A small empty coffee cup and a phone sat on a table at his side.Catching sight of her, he pressed a finger to his lips, and gestured for her to join them."Good morning, darling." Mrs. Ruiz greeted her and her lips formed a sweet smile.She approached her and made a small kiss on the cheek in greeting."I'm hungry. Now that you're here, we'll eat together." He picked up the phone, pressed a button and spoke briefly with whoever an
After a week of spending in Japan for their honeymoon, their airplane landed at M City International Airport. No one came to welcome them because they did not learn that they were coming back today.So, she was even surprised when they came out of the airport and Kenneth's personal assistant, Jim Greer, was there. Next, she noticed Kenneth's BMW car. Jim Greer quickly approached them to pick up and place their luggage in the car compartment. Actually,they even bought these clothes in Japan because they didn't bring anything aside from what they are wearing. All because of Kenneth's sudden decision to change the destination of their honeymoon.While they were in the car, the couple not dare to speak with each other. Candy crossed her arms in her chest and couldn't help but let out a deep sigh that in return caught Kenneth's attention. He turned to Candy and seemed to be wondering whether to continue what he wanted to ask his wife. Eventually his mouth opened.
The exquisite agony was unbearable. She was writhing against his ministry. And to her amazement, heat exploded inside her like a bomb filled with fiery shrapnel. Kenneth’s mouth on hers muffled her cries.After a while, he left her to take off his clothes. Candy didn't even have a chance to imagine what was happening to her; the indescribable pleasure she felt. Kenneth’s full attention was taken by her as he hurriedly took off his clothes.She didn't want to blink while staring at it, but he was gorgeous! A perfect beautiful male species. Broad shoulders and a leanly muscled torso, Kenneth could have been a sculptured Greek god statue that came to life.Her gaze on his body was interrupted by his return to her. His eyes drank in the soft glow of her skin, the swell of her breasts. Then he put his hand on her head and lifted her from the bed and kissed her hard.His mouth, his tongue, and his hands were giving her pleasu
When their last guest left, the newlyweds went home. Along the way, the two are still cold with each other. Candy noticed that her husband was taking a different path."Where will we go?" She asked as she watched outside the car."At the airport.""I thought tomorrow we will go to B City before we go on a cruise."“I changed my mind. We need to talk and we can't go home because I don't want our parents to hear that we are fighting just right after our wedding.”Candy's eyebrows rose. “Who’s fighting with you? I already surrendered with you because I know I won’t win.”Kenneth glared at Candy before refocusing his eyes on the road.“Then, why did you treat me like this? You almost don't want to talk to me and when you speak it is always mixed with insults. And most of all, what is your drama and why did you have to hug Richard right before my eyes? Are
"I'm glad you've found Candy, Kenneth," Christian Blair said and tapped him on the shoulder. "And I thought the saying goes true to you, lucky in business, unlucky in love."He smiled. "Well, now you know I'm good at everything."Christian laughed. “And I’m happy for you. I can't believe it's been over a month since we talked and you've met the woman you want to marry. When Valerie told me that Candy was perfect for you, I didn’t believe her.”Kenneth chuckled and nodded and patiently waited for Christian’s next word.“We both know you need to get married… and right away. But when I saw you at the chapel today, I revised my opinion. You couldn’t get your eyes off her even for a moment. And it is as if you couldn’t wait to take her to bed.”Kenneth’s laugh was hollow. “Of all the friends, you are the most romantic, Christian, that's why you captured Valerie. You give meaning to
