Chapter 13
Kieran pressed his hot cheek against her. He murmured, “Rose?”
“You can’t run away,” snapped Kieran.
Alarieka gritted her teeth in hatred.
It turned out that Kieran had mistaken her for Roschelle, which was why he had crossed the line.
When Kieran slipped his hand under her clothes, Alarieka recoiled in disgust. She elbowed him hard in the chest.
“Don’t touch me!” Alarieka ground out through clenched teeth. “How disgusting.”
Kieran’s hand suddenly froze. His hoarse voice fell on her ear. “What did you say?”
Alarieka bit her teeth and said, “Kieran, you’re so disgusting.”
Kieran was silent for a moment. Then he roughly covered her mouth with his hand, growling in anger, “Shut up!”
In an instant, Kieran ripped open her top. His burning palm clamped around her waist.
Alarieka pressed her forehead despairingly against the bathroom door.
Behind her was Kieran, like a fierce wolf. She seemed to have no way to
escape.
Alarieka wondered, “Am I going to relive the tragedy of my previous

life?”
Maybe fate was on her side. The bedroom door suddenly opened by itself.
At that moment, Alarieka pushed Kieran away with all her might and
rushed out.
After Alarieka came out, she slammed the door shut..
She ran a few steps in a daze and ran into Roschelle and Clarissa.
At
the sight of Alaricka, Roschelle unconsciously raised her voice. “Ms. Huston, why are you here?”
Alarieka’s face darkened. “Why can’t I be here?”
Roschelle suddenly grabbed Alarieka’s hand harder, her nails almost digging into her flesh, questioning relentlessly. “Ms. Huston, why are your lips so red? Did something happen between you and Kier?”
Alarieka’s voice was steady, her eyes cold. “No. Don’t worry. I won’t get involved with Mr. Argent.”
Clarissa sneered, “Who knows? You’re such a shameless person, aren’t you?”
Alarieka ignored Clarissa and only looked at Roschelle, speaking in a low voice, “Kieran is having a hard time right now. Don’t you want to go in and stay with him? Maybe after tonight, you guys can get back together.”
Roschelle blushed, quickly let go, and rushed to Kieran’s room.
Alarieka quietly watched as Roschelle walked into the room and closed the door.
If all went well, Kieran would finally have Roschelle tonight.
That wasn’t a bad thing. Everything could get back to normal.
The mess between her and Kieran needed to
She and Kieran needed to draw a clear line.

* for all.
Her goal was clear. She would make those who hurt Nina pay.
From now on, anyone who got in the way of her revenge was her enemy, even if it was Kieran or the Argent family.
She turned to leave, but Clarissa suddenly grabbed her wrist again. “Alarieka, what the hell are you up to?”
Alarieka shook off her hand mercilessly. “It’s none of your business.”
Clarissa’s face turned ugly.
She could see Alarieka had changed.
Alarieka was no longer meek and submissive. She wasn’t a pushover
anymore.
Clarissa felt a strange panic inside.
Alarieka went back to her room, stayed in the bathroom for ages, and scrubbed the places Kieran had touched until her skin turned red.
In this life, things were finally different.
In the past, she knelt in the courtyard, watching two shadows projected from Kieran’s windowsill. Now, she lay in a comfortable and soft bed, feeling completely relaxed.
After a good night’s sleep, Alarieka carried her backpack downstairs.
At the table, only Wallace and Clarissa were having breakfast. Kieran and

Roschelle were nowhere to be seen.
Perhaps they were still sleeping after a wild night.
