She walked silently, head dropped. During Kendra’s way back, she seemed distracted and almost hit a pillar.“Be careful, Miss Miller.” Curtis reminded her instantly. He wanted to ask her about the two women he saw earlier; however, he’s afraid she’d misunderstood him. “Oh, thank you.” Kendra finally came back to her senses. She gave him a gentle smile. “Miss Miller, are they your sister and stepmother? The people we just met?” Curtis summoned enough courage to ask her.“Yes.” Kendra smiled bitterly and nodded.“I shouldn’t have judged your family, but they went too far. Why do you…” Curtis paused for a while and sighed. He h

She wanted to ask Curtis why Lendon decided to bring her to the party; however, she chose not to speak her mind. Kendra sat in the car and waited for Lendon.“Mr. Martin.” A bodyguard greeted him and opened the car door.Lendon got on and sat down next to Kendra with his black suit. He even looked stunning, and Kendra couldn’t help but admire this man. “Why did you take so long?” Lendon frowned, staring at her elegant appearance.Kendra didn’t want any argument, lowered her head, and in a low voice, she uttered, “I am sorry. It was my fault. I didn’t saw Curtis’s call earlier,”Lendon stared at Kendra and said nothing. He was happy to see her like this. 

He called her name several times, but still no answer from her. He lost patience. Lendon grabbed the door, trying to open it, but he found it was locked. So he had to keep on knocking and shouted, “Kendra, what are you doing? Come out!”No one responded. Lendon got impatient and frowned, shouting, “Kendra, open the fucking door!”What was Kendra doing? Lendon lost his temper and shouted again, “I will break into your room if you don’t open the door!” He threatened, but deep inside his heart, he was nervous. Still, no one answered him. Lendon stared at the door and suddenly had a terrible thought. Did Kendra commit suicide because she was desperate? It was possible, Kendra was a strong woman, but she could be weak sometimes. Thinking about Kendra lying on the ground wit

She fell into deep thoughts. What’s really going on? Kendra’s classmates discussed it loudly while Kendra looked at them vaguely.“What are you talking about?” Kendra finds her tongue after a few minutes, in deep thoughts.“Just tell us. We are friends. You can trust us.” A boy patted Kendra’s shoulder and enthusiastically encouraged her, “Don’t worry. We believe in you. Just tell us who was the one backing you up,”Kendra lost in thought again, can’t relate to what they’re talking about. She looked at them and asked, “Enlightened me, as I don’t understand what you guys mean?”“Stop pretending!” A girl gave her phone to Kendra to show her something, “Look, the head

Hearing her, Lendon raised his eyebrows and smiled. “You looked poor, so I extend a helping hand to clear this issue. If you just want to say thank you, save it. I don’t like verbal appreciation.” He said arrogantly.Kendra felt so speechless. Of course, Lendon was always flippant and impudent. He really ruined her mood to utter her thank you. This man has always been so proud and cold, yet he’s been ready to stand beside her. He doesn’t hesitate to clear all her problems along the way.“What? How do I know if you are sincere if you don’t show me by using other ways?” Lendon walked closer to Kendra, bent down immediately, and was ready to kiss her. Kendra was trapped by Lendon inside the elevator, and her heartbeats sped up. Meanwhile, her coat dropped suddenly,
