CASSANDRA "This is where you live?" Jenny asked when the car slowed down while the gate to the mansion slowly opened. "Yes! You will like it there. And the people living with us are all kind, unlike in the Rivera's residence. I stepped out of the car when it stopped in the garage. Jenny followed behind me nervously. "We will carry your bag, Jenny." Billy offered. "Thank you." Billy smiled and nodded in response. I held Jenny's hand and led her to the front. "Aunt Amara is living here as well?" "Yes." "I'm home," I called out. "Welcome home, dear." Mama gritted and pulled me in a hug. "Ma, look who's here," I excitedly said, smiling. "Jenny? Why are you here? What happened, and why do you look like you haven't slept?" She hugged Jenny, who burst into tears. Mama is the mother figure of all the young helpers at the Rivera's residence. "Christina fired me the other day, and since I don't have a place to stay, I slept on the street last night." "What? Thank god nothing bad

CASSANDRA I was nervous as I walked to my classroom. Today is our exam, and I'm unlucky because James chose my class. My Art class is second to my last subject, and since morning I've been hyperventilating. I'm glad I found my other exam easy and answered it, but I'm praying for my Art class. Now, I am heading there, and my heart is pounding. I heard that James had already arrived with his assistant. He is busy, but I wondered why James wasted time on this. Maybe they are planning to open an art gallery and are looking for a talented Artist. Sigh. I stepped inside the Art room and went to my assigned seat. Our professor is already inside. I'm sure to impress James. He was always a minute late when it was only a normal day. When the clock ticked the start of our class, our Professor distributed the things we needed, gave us the theme for our drawing today, and told us to start. I hurriedly started to paint, hoping to finish it before Kames arrived. But luck wasn't on me today bec

ALEXANDER We returned to school after I'm sure Cassandra was already safe inside her room. We went to the Principal's office, and Mr. Hernandez, the school's principal, rushed before us. He looked nervous, and I saw Carlos and Celso Garcia inside. I smiled. He might be related to Jaxon. James occupied the vacant seat before them, and I stood beside him. "Mr. Larson, your assistant almost killed my son. Even though my son beat that woman, he shouldn't beat my son to a pulp. That woman is a peasant. She isn't worth what your assistant did to my son to protect her. Because of what your assistant did, my son is in a critical condition right now. " "I'm disappointed. I plan to kill him after he attempted to rape an innocent and helpless woman inside the male comfort room. Even though she is a peasant in your eyes, Mr. Garcia, she needs respect, and your son has no right to lay his hand on her. A person like your son should be in hell. You are his father. You should guide him to the ri

CASSANDRA The whole, after I encountered Christina and her friends, I didn't see them again. I'm glad I had a peaceful day the whole afternoon, but I could feel the eyes of my schoolmates wherever I went. But as long as they didn't touch me, I'll ignore them. After class, I was heading to the gate when I noticed Christina and Rose. I kept walking, and I noticed they followed me. Try to touch me, Christina, and I won't hold back anymore. I hated you and Kris. If I could choose my family, I would never choose you. "Peasant!!! I winced when Christina suddenly pulled my hair. I look at her and, without hesitation, throw a punch at her, knocking her to the ground. "Ouch, that hurt. This woman has a steel-like face. "You!! She shrieked and launched at me like a ranging ball. I smiled. Christina is weak because all she does at home is sleep or watch her favorite show. Compared to me, who used hard work. She pulled my hair and tried to scratch my face, but I caught her other hand. "L

CASSANDRA I watch as Sir Xander warns Kris. I blushed when I remembered what Sir Alex told me last night. I don't have a crush on Sir Xander. I only find him mysterious and creepy. But why he's here? What is he doing here?" Kris glared at Sir Xander and left the room. "Sir, What are you doing here?" His clothes always make him look powerful. He always wears a coat and tie, and I haven't seen him wearing casual clothes. "I have something to talk to the principal about, and I accidentally saw Kris while passing your classroom." I frowned because the Princepal's office is opposite our classroom, and you won't pass my classroom when you go there. But I didn't comment about it. I looked at Bryan when he chuckled. "What's funny?" "No, Miss Cassandra, I only remember something funny." He chuckled. I glanced at Sir Xander, and he was glaring at Bryan, who quickly shut his mouth. "I'll go ahead. I still have something to talk about with your principal." Sir Xander left our roo
