All Chapters of Hated By The Bully King: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

CoraI give him my own huge smile. "You've done so much for me and my family. We're so thankful."He waves his hand again. "Nonsense.""You seem like you really care about other people," I continue. "You give so much charity and help so many."He nods. "I like to make the world a better place.""And you are," I say, trying to butter him up. "You've changed so many lives. I can't help but wonder, though, if your own son is happy."His whole face changes. But then he quickly pastes on another fake smile. "My son?""Yeah. His friends and I are really worried about him. Is it possible to get in contact with him? Just to know how he's doing?"Asher blinks, though he doesn't lose his smile. "Alessandro is great," he says. "He's currently on assignment for me. It won't be long before he returns."I just stare at him. "Returns?""Yes, it won't be too long now. Maybe a couple weeks."I continue staring at him, my mouth opening and closing. Alessandro's coming back?Peering closely at his dad,

CoraColt is arranging the whole thing, though I don't yet know what exactly he's arranging. In the meantime, we still have to deal with school. And Heather and her stupid bitch friends, who throw me dirty looks and taunts every chance they get. It's not as bad as the beginning of the school year, but I seriously have no patience for their crap.I study the picture of Alessandro like every twenty seconds. I don't know if it's to torture myself, or because this is the closest thing I have to him, other than Rosie. I touch his face, wishing I could actually touch him. Wondering if whatever Colt is working on will work and I'll see him face to face again."How long are we going to be kept in the dark?" I complain one afternoon, as Ethan and I sit in the Princes' private game room. He's reading from another business book and I'm throwing darts. I've gotten a little better at it, though I still pretty much suck. "Every time I ask Colt what's going on, he tells me I'll found out soon. It's

CoraEarly the next morning, a package arrives for me. It's the uniform of Baryard Academy for Boys. My nose wrinkles as I hold it out before me. Academy uniforms aren't supposed to be pretty, but this uniform has got to be the ugliest one I've ever seen. Everything is a dreary gray, as though the school doesn't want the sun to shine on the kids.I pack it away along with the wig, just as someone knocks on the door. I freeze, worried it's the staff or maybe a girl from my floor—not that girls ever knock on my door. Taking a deep breath, I move closer. "Who is it?""Your knights in shining armor," Colt's voice announces.I open the door and give him and Ethan a smile. "Hey, my knights in shining armor."Ethan frowns as he walks inside. "I don't like that term.""Lighten up." Colt playfully hits his chest. "I'm just trying to make everyone feel more at ease."I raise my brow. "I don't think any of us could calm down. What we're about to do...""I know." Colt wraps his arm around me. "It

CoraA limo is waiting for us as soon as we leave the airport.My heart hasn't stopped thumping since we got off the plane. I know I need to compose myself or I might blow my cover, but oh my god, what the hell was I thinking when I suggested we break Alessandro out?"Have you ever been to Paris?" Colt asks as we pull out of the parking lot. He drags his bag onto his lap, holding it securely in his arms. All the documents Alessandro will need to get out of the country are in there."No. I've never been to any part of Europe."Colt gestures around. "Take it all in. Paris is one of the most beautiful cities in the world.""I wish I could enjoy it more. I can hardly breathe.""I know." He takes my hand and squeezes it between his.The small city where the school is located is about an hour and a half from Paris. This is such torture. I have no choice but to freak out about the mission for a full ninety minutes. Colt seems composed, though he taps his fingers on his knees every so often.

CoraWe push his papers aside and place it in the center where he'll definitely see it. Then we leave his room."Now where the hell is that damn cafeteria?" Colt says, glancing at the map on his phone."Just ask someone." I'm about to head over to the closest guy, when Ethan gently takes hold of my arm and pulls me back. "What?""As a student here, you should know where the cafeteria is.""Oh." I stare out at all the buildings on campus."What seems to be the problem, boys?" a voice asks from behind us. We twist around and find a tall guy standing there with his shoulders raised in authority. Maybe he's a senior and thinks he's on a much higher level than the rest of the students?"No problem," Colt quickly says, flashing him a smile. "No problem at all."He eyes us suspiciously, scanning us from top to bottom, his eyes lingering on me a little longer than the guys. Damn, can he see right through me and know I'm a girl?"I don't recognize you three," he says, brows furrowing.Colt lau
