"Hey, do you run away every time you see me now that you think you're all grown up?" Fleur complained."Mom...""You're my son, for heaven's sake! You foolish kid!" Fleur reprimanded.Lena approached with a smile and nodded. "Hello, Mrs. Hamerton."Fleur adjusted her hair with the arrogance of a peacock, taking five seconds before replying with a nonchalant, "Hmm, hello."She soon noticed her hands were empty—no accessories adorned them.Chris quickly grasped the situation and interjected, aware of his mother's scrutinizing gaze. "Mom, it's not that Lena doesn't want to wear the ring you bought her. It's just that it's too big for her slender fingers, and I thought it wouldn't match the occasion. Besides, the ring holds sentimental value for her. She's been keeping it safe in a drawer. She hardly ever takes it out!"Fleur glanced at him and pouted. "I didn't say anything. What are you rambling about?""I...""I know. You young folks don't like the style of the ring!""No, Mrs

Lena opened the door and was surprised to find Alexander standing outside."You?" she exclaimed, her eyes scanning the area. "What are you doing here?"He remained silent, his dark eyes seemingly darker in the night.Lina stepped out, initially stunned to see him. However, she soon smiled and said, "You're the student Lena brought, right? Is this your first time at an event like this? Have you eaten?"Alexander was taken aback, unable to speak. He gazed at Lina, finding her exceptionally beautiful. He had always thought his sister was the most beautiful person in the world, but now...Then, he looked at Lena. Surprisingly, his sister was not any less beautiful. They had different types of beauty, but both possessed kindness."Hey!" Lena waved her hand in front of his face. "What are you staring at?""Nothing..." He quickly looked down, feeling embarrassed. At his age, boys often felt ashamed. He realized he had been rude and felt apologetic.Lena pressed. "You haven't answered

"Why didn't you..." Lena frowned. "Just knock instead of turning the handle?"Alexander was taken aback."That's something you need to learn," Lena said seriously. "No matter where you go, whether it's to the teacher's office or your classmates' dorm, you must knock on the door first instead of opening it right away. It's a matter of courtesy. Do you understand?"His lips moved, but in the end, he chose to hold back what he was going to say.It wasn't him who had done that just now.More than ten minutes ago, he had accidentally found himself in this quiet corridor while trying to escape the noise of the banquet for some fresh air. He had no idea what the room was for, only seeing someone trying to enter it in the dark.He hadn't seen the person's face, and that person had been on high alert, fleeing after failing to open the door.He had approached because he became concerned when he heard Lena's voice asking, "Who is it?" from inside. That's why he knocked."Why aren't you sa

Drake's eyes brightened at the news."Ms. Bianca..." He fumbled, uncertain where to place his hands. Surprise and greed were evident on his face.Bianca reassured him with a smile. "It's alright. You're older than me, after all. Think of it as the young showing respect for their elders."He licked his lips, eager to taste the city's wine.Taking advantage of the moment, Bianca served him food and encouraged him to eat more while smiling. His tension decreased, and his true nature emerged. He consumed his meal with less grace, audibly munching on the dishes.Bianca frowned, her disgust more noticeable.After three rounds of wine, Drake's caution waned. He patted his chest, assuring her, "Ms. Bianca, y-you're my savior! Hehe... I'm not one for fancy words, but I'll be there whenever you need me! I won't hesitate to help!""Really?" That's what she wanted to hear."Of course!" Drake pledged, burping. "You've been so kind to me. If I don't repay you... Hic! Can I still call myself

"From now on, you'll answer my questions honestly. Understand?"Drake immediately agreed. He didn't want to die in an unfamiliar place, even if his life had little value.Bianca raised her chin, her eyes revealing a cold gleam. "Tell me, who is Krystal Harding?""She's a human trafficker," he admitted, unable to lie.Bianca frowned. "Who was the woman you mentioned earlier?""That's her daughter, Lena Harding.""Lena Harding..." Bianca's mind raced. "Is she the one who brought the mountain kids to study in Centrolis?""Yes, that's her." He nodded vigorously. "Krystal used to do business in our town, so she sent her only daughter to me. She paid me regularly.""So, Lena is your adopted daughter?""Yes." His voice grew hoarse. "But she... She ran away.""Why did she run away?"He bit his lip and remained silent. Bianca had a hunch. She had witnessed him brutally beating his biological son that night. What had he done to his adopted daughter if he treated his flesh and blood

"What are you talking about?" Lena and Elijah strolled together on the field, enjoying the sun and sporting wide smiles."They're a fantastic pair. Why are you calling them mermaids?!""Yes, it's incredible." He squinted. "Toph and Arya look perfect together, no matter how you see it. They have similar family backgrounds, both are good-looking, their families have been friends for generations, and they share the same hobby. Okay, I was wrong. I should call them a match made in heaven!""Hmm, that's more like it.""Looks like he's moved past his trauma?""I suppose so." Lena sighed. "Life goes on, and we have to look to the future.""That's right. We can't dwell on the past. We need to learn to save ourselves!"She was taken aback. Elijah had simply stated the truth, but she took it hard.She couldn't help but think back to the long period of depression she endured after fleeing the village at just over ten years old. What she had been through had been cruel for a child. She wan

"Don't be rude, Nala!" Kasey swiftly reached for her daughter."Hey!" Nala rested her head on Lena's shoulder, "I really like my aunt!""Haha!" Harold placed his glass down. "I must admit, they do look like aunt and niece. Both beautiful. I hope Nala inherits Ms. Harding's calm charisma in the future."Lena blushed. "You're very kind, sir.""Nala kept telling me how pretty her aunt is. I thought—"Elijah coughed, interrupting Harold.Kasey realized what was happening and quickly signaled her father.Lena, however, remained oblivious, unsure of what they were discussing."What did you think?"Harold's smile froze, and he changed the topic. "Well, I still have one more campaign to handle. It would be wonderful to have an exceptional student representative."Elijah promptly agreed. "Absolutely. There are a few students I've noticed. They're quite talented. With the opportunities they're getting now, they'll have successful futures.""Is Alexander one of them?" Harold asked."W

Lena wandered the streets, her steps aimless, lost in thought.Her mind drifted back to a night from years past.The drunk and enraged Drake had been wreaking havoc at home. She had hidden there until the chaos subsided in the dead of night. Little did she know, as soon as she returned...He covered her mouth, stretching his filthy hand into her clothes. Fear gripped her, and she trembled. The bastard's heavy breathing lingered in her ears, the air filled with a thick, disgusting stench.As he began to undress her, she struck back, her knee connecting with his groin.He howled in pain, and she seized her chance, pushing him away and fleeing like a mad woman. She didn't return home that night, deciding to hide in the nearby forest. Occasional animal calls punctuated the darkness. She held herself, wanting to cry but unable to.It was at that moment she first entertained the idea of running away...-Lena's heart ached as she stood by the street. She walked into a bar, her expres

Chris was taken aback. "You're of legal drinking age, right?" he asked Lena.She nodded."In other countries, 21 is the legal drinking age. Are you already 21?" Chris inquired.Lena didn't understand why he brought this up. Her thoughts were a blur, but she nodded in agreement. "Yes, I am.""Then why can't you drink?" Chris wondered.Something sent a jolt through her heart as she gazed at him. His eyes were clear, filled with love and passion meant only for her."You silly goose," he said softly, caressing her cheeks. "Why can't you drink?""I..." She hesitated, uncertain of what to say. "Don't you think a good girl shouldn't drink?"She believed that all men disliked their girlfriends drinking at bars. She assumed all men were possessive and controlling.She expected him to question, scold, or give her the cold shoulder if he smelled alcohol on her.But all he said was, "Why can't you drink?"She looked at him with innocent eyes, her mind blank."Let me explain," Chris sai

"Lenny…" Chris cautiously approached her after a prolonged silence, sensing something was wrong. If she didn't want to talk about it, there was little anyone could do. Anxiety gripped him, but he had to restrain himself.The slap didn't hurt much, but he was willing to endure it if it eased her distress.Lena curled up, unable to meet his eyes, and repeatedly apologized, "I'm sorry, Chris. I'm so sorry.""What's bothering you today?" Chris asked.Lena hugged her head, shoulders trembling."Lenny, please tell me. I can help you!""I need some time alone."Chris' hand, suspended mid-air, stopped just short of touching her head. That tiny distance became an insurmountable chasm the moment she spoke.It felt like the world's greatest distance now separated them. Chris sighed deeply, eyes filled with pain. He reluctantly got off the bed, picked up his coat, glanced back at her, and walked away.The sound of the door locking outside crushed Lena's heart. A sudden, painful sensation
