Chapter 6
Loved me forever?
I stared at the drones in the sky and was lost in thought.
I didn’t notice that Adam had walked up to me till he said, “Ananda, sorry for what happened yesterday.”
Under the fireworks, his expression seemed gentler than before.
“You should trust me. I love you even if my savior is Grace. You don’t need to lie at all.”
Instantly, I felt like shedding tears.
I didn’t feel moved but hurt by what Adam had said.
How could he bully me together with my family while claiming to love me?
“What is wrong?”
Because of my long silence, Adam pinched my check
“You are skinny. Why didn’t you grab more food?”
I finally looked him in the eye and said, “How? Since it was difficult for me to fend for myself during the seven years in Ouray.”
Adam met my eyes and suddenly shuddered
Perhaps, he finally remembered that it was he who had personally sent me to hell.
He intended for an explanation, but the door of Bentley was pushed open.
Then, a familiar voice sounded, “Adam, Amanda, don’t keep standing there. It’s cold.”
It was Grace
The smile on my face became a steer.
Adam explained, “Grace came to express her gratitude about the wedding. Come, let me take you home.”
He pulled me to the car.
u did
In the car, Grace glanced at my old clothes and then said, “Amanda, doesn’t our parents‘ financial manager give you pocket money every month? Why Terry say that you work at a restaurant?
“People may misunderstand our parents and suspect that they are bad to you!
Speaking, Grace took off a bracelet and handed it to me.
“Amanda, tell me if you are short of money and don’t want to alert Mon and Dad. This bracelet is my birthday gift from Mom. It is worth more than 800 thousand dollars. It can help you solve the problemn, I think.”
Soo thousand dollars…
With disappointment and sadness, I looked at the luxurious bracelet Grace handed over to me
One of her gifts was worth 800 thousand dollars while I rolled for five hundred dollars.
The financial manager didn’t give me money as Grace had said.
“It is clear that they are blased. Just look at you and then at me!”
I pushed away the bracelet Grace was holding. “Stop pretending, I am not 15 years old. I won’t fall into your trap again.”
I had intended to be Grace’s good sister when I arrived at the Hacker’s house at 15 years old.
However, Grace kept setting me up and made me her scapegoat. It was too late when I saw through her.
Grace could shed tears whenever she wanted.
At the sight of Grace’s tears, Adam said, “Amanda, Grace is trying to help. You don’t have to be rude even if you don’t want her bracelet.”
He had just said that he loved me.
He sided with Grace whenever I argued with her.
“Adam, xhovild th
| the poor feel grateful to the hand which gives them the alms?” askond.
I had my pride
Chapter 7
Adam didy’t know how to answer my question.
Grace started to pasp for air as she said, “T’in sorry… My bad. All my fault. Adam, please don’t fight with Arnanda…,”
Instantly, Adam became agitated and said to the driver, “Hurry up. To the hospital ”
He then saw me and sakl,
sow me and saki, “Amanda, you went too far. Go home by yourself.”
He left me on the roadside
The car then raced away,
Flocked up at the night sky and found that it was snowing
Snow was falling on Timon
What a good surprise that I saw the first snow of that year before I left. Timond
I walked back to the Hacker’s place.
The house was brightly lit and beautifully decorated
The people there were busy preparing for Grace’s wedding.
“We will throw a grand wedding for Grace,” my mom said with a smile.
My dad sighed. “Alas! How time flies! In the blink of an eye, my dear daughter is old enough to get married.”
My parents belt both overjoyed and sad about Grace’s wedding.
I watched them from a distance and found that they did love Grace
At a very young age, I had learned that I was the victim of a kidnapping.
With the wish of finding my real parents one day, I began to study hard,
In my imagination, my biological parents loved me.
Now, I felt regretful about the reunion.
Without the reunion, my parents would be perfect as they had been in my imagination.
I returned to my room without greeting them.
1 would leave at PM tomorrow.
A big world was awaiting me, and I didn’t covet any love again.
It was the day before the wedding of Grace and Adam
Terry threw a bachelor party at home.
Many people were invited, including common classmates of Grace and me.
They talked and laughed, but it had nothing to do with me.
There was no bathroom in the utility rooms, so I had to leave my room to
to wash
пр.
When I walked past the living room, the crowd was playing Truth or dare. Grace and Adan sat in the middle of the crowd.
“Adam, you lost. What is your choice, Truth or dare?”
Tipsy, Adam chose the latter.
Apassionate kiss with Grace, and it should last for one minute.”
Grace shyly lowered her head.
The crowd shouted excitedly.
Then, I was spotted.
