Chapter 8

Penulis: Secret Soda
I thoroughly enjoyed myself and had a blast for a full week, and it wasn't until I chanced upon a video on my social media feed that I finally learned that Montville, where Randell and I had planned the trip to, had had many days of heavy, torrential rains.

I even saw a video of the hotel that I stayed at days ago that had been submerged underwater due to its low geographical location.

Another video went viral too, and it showed a few rescuers trying to save the people trapped in the hotel before being washed away by the floods.

I was just feeling sorry for the people involved and lamenting the unpredictability of life when I noticed that a few of my old classmates had sent me a number of text messages.

"Cassidy? I heard that you were vacationing in Montville and that there's a flood there. Are you okay?"

"Cassie? Why aren't you responding on WhatsApp? You blocked Randell, didn't you? He's been trying to contact you."

"Cassie, Randell has been trying to find you. He can't call yo

    "Leave, and never come back here again. Please just let Cassie go," Mom told Randell.When Randell was just about to ask Mom what she meant by nearly getting me killed in the middle of the night, she closed the door in his face.So, Randell could only go home and ask Hilary about it.It was only then that he found out that I was already at the airport when he canceled my flight ticket. And when I tried going back to the hotel after that, I got harassed and nearly abducted by an Uber driver.He bit down harshly on his lip and swayed before nearly collapsing onto the floor.In the end, one of my old classmates, Katy Dansen, somehow managed to get hold of me and told me that Randell had beaten Evelyn up and called the police on her, accusing her of fraud and getting her arrested.Curiosity got the better of me, so I asked her what happened.Katy then said that everything Evelyn told Randell about her family forcing her to marry Baldy was fake.Evelyn was the one who messed up in h

    Previously, I had turned down Aunt Gracie’s offer because of Randell. Now that I no longer wanted him, I had no reason to attend the same college as him either."What the hell? What's this bitch trying to do, acting up again? Is she playing hard to get?""She says she's going abroad to study, but she's just trying to copy what those stupid lovesick novels do all the time—she's probably hoping that Randy would come chasing after her as she's about to leave. Haha! Preposterous!""Cassidy is such a joke. Did she think she was the main protagonist after all? What a pity that she'll never be anything but the evil side character. LOL! She's going to be eliminated soon!""Too bad, though. After everything that happened, you can tell that Randy doesn't think anything of Cassidy anymore. And now that Randy's saved Evie, they can finally get together in public! Hooray!"I was stunned.After sending the text message to Aunt Gracie, I thanked the policemen who helped me and quickly switched

    After ending the call, I could immediately tell that the driver wasn't staring at me anymore. He would still glance at me inquisitively every now and then, but at the very least, I could see from the Uber app that he had now returned to the original route.The car was now heading back toward the hotel."Miss, your legs are really fair and smooth."I shook hard once again and quickly gripped the hem of my dress.To be honest, I wanted nothing more than to confront the driver and call the police on him. But I knew that I couldn't do that. After all, it was raining very hard, and there were hardly any people out on the streets.I didn't dare to confront him alone.I could only pretend not to have heard him. I then tapped into my messaging window with Mom and sent her a voice message."Mom, I'm already in the Uber. You can wait for me in the hotel lobby. I'm reaching soon."The driver finally stopped verbally harassing me after that.I secretly heaved a sigh of relief. However, I

    Randell hung up before I could get another word in. When I tried calling him back, I realized that he had already blocked my number.I quickly sent him a text message on WhatsApp, but I quickly realized that he had also blocked all of my other social media accounts, and there was no way for me to contact him at all.To think that he would actually block me everywhere just to keep me from bothering him!I gripped my phone tightly in my hand as my tears began streaming down my face.The comments section erupted in joy at that."LOL! Randy's the best! He would do anything to protect poor Evie from harm! He's so hot, oh, my God. I'm so happy and satisfied with everything he did!""He should have done this a whole lot earlier! Cassidy doesn't even know how to behave herself. But now, she can't go abroad anymore and doesn't have a single penny to her name. Tsk, she had no other choice but to slink back and accept her fate now!""Randy's too kind. If it were up to me, I wouldn't have e

    I suppressed my tears again and found myself a seat at the airport. Then, I tried calling Mom and Dad.As soon as the SATs were over, Mom and Dad had gone on vacation to the Alpes. I knew that the places they were staying at didn't have cell service, so I didn't harbor much hope that I'd even be able to reach them at all.Sure enough, the calls I made to them went straight to voicemail.The only thing left that I could do was to wait patiently at the airport, hoping that Randell would finally transfer back the money to me after he arrived and turned on his phone.Even though it was summertime now, we were in the mountains, and the weather here was pretty cold. In addition to that, the airport kept the air conditioning at a very low temperature, and I was soon shivering in the cold. I quickly dug out my jacket and put it on.Finally, after two hours of waiting, I called Randell's number again, but his phone was still off.I thought that Randell perhaps still hadn't turned on his p
