last update publish date: 2026-03-05 03:33:22

I glanced at the back door we had come through. There was no way I’d make it back there without being seen. The car was getting closer and slowing down.

“What are you guys doing?” Asher whispered urgently. He grabbed my arm, dragged me to his car, and shoved me into the back seat. “Lie flat and stay invisible!” he ordered before slamming the door shut.

Lord it was super hot and humid here. I squeezed myself as far down as I could and tried to breathe quietly. I was surprised they even wanted to

    They glared at each other for a while, then broke off in laughter to my surprise.“What’s up, man?” Asher gave him a friendly handshake. "You worried about your girl, huh?”What? When did they make up? Weren't they at loggerheads with each other?Corn waved something at me as I stared on like a fool. It was my phone. "Come and have this, silly. Stop leaving your phone with that girl, else you pay her next time. And it's gonna be three bucks an hour.”I wasn't pleased at all. I refused to touch the phone. "Why did you collect it from her?” "Are you serious, right now? Do you know the trouble we went through to find you?” He shoved the phone into my hands. “If you know what is good for you, you'd better hold it tight.” He said in warning."Stop hanging at the door and come in.” Asher invited him. “Nah, I’ve got a couple of errands to run.” He glanced at me. I stood behind Asher, while he remained at door. “Are you staying the night?”“Yeah.." I nodded."Hold on. Are you Suzella's brot

    He didn't think I was his sister, did he? His grandma emerged from the restroom, limping, while his grandpa reappeared with the wine. I wonder what took them so long.But Asher didn't seem to give a hoot. He refused to let go and I felt super embarrassed. If I hadn't heard his backstory, I would have pushed him off. So I just let him be.“What's…what's happening, Bennie?” Mrs. Kent stuttered. “She is Gracie, not Gabrielle." He finally pulled away, holding my hands and refusing to let go. “Why did you make me worry too much? I thought something bad had happened to you. Why did you leave your phone with Suzella? Why didn't you go home?" Was everything okay?“Is there a problem?" I asked calmly.But his eyes pored deeply into mine and I felt deeply embarrassed. His grandparents were watching for goodness sake."I'm sorry, Grace.” He stroked my cheeks gently. "I swear, I would never stand by and watch anyone hurt you again. They'd have to go through me first.”"I'm fine. You don't have

    "Oh, dearest. I’m so glad to have run into you. I don’t know what an unfortunate old woman like me would have done,” Mrs. Kent lamented as I helped her into the taxi while the driver loaded her belongings into the boot.I chuckled. “If you hadn’t seen me, surely another staff member would have assisted you. And what do you mean by ‘unfortunate’? That’s a bit of an exaggeration.”Since their family was so wealthy, I assumed she would have a personal car and driver, or perhaps she simply preferred taking taxis.“No, it’s not, my dear,” she sighed deeply as we settled into the car and waited for the driver.“You know, that boss lady back there is like a constant reminder of my daughter. I lost her about ten years ago. She was Bennie’s mum,” she paused with a sad sigh.Did she just say Asher’s mum? What?! So that woman was either his stepmother or…“And I also had a daughter like you, his twin sister, Gabrielle. She passed away a few years back. Bennie has been miserable ever since.”I wa

    I stiffened immediately and released my hold on Asher, but it was too late.She had already seen me.“Are you okay?!" Asher asked me, oblivious of Xena’s presence behind him. I pulled away slowly, taking a step backwards.“So it's exactly what I've been thinking, right?" Xena sneered. She was flanked by her usual minions, Eva and Jamie. It felt like I was the center of attention as most students were at the door of their classes, peeking out to see what would happen.“And what exactly have you been thinking? Of committing murder?" Asher growled.I wished I could disappear."Don't you dare change the topic. I saw the way she clung to you just now and yet you want to give me crap? Do I look like a dummy to you?”"Of course, you are more than a dummy if you think there would be anything going on between me and a nobody like her.” He gestured at me with disdain. I picked courage then. "Please, I'm so sorry, I just got so scared and needed rescue. I didn't mean to…” She struck me hard

    “Why are you pulling me!" I struggled to free myself from Logan's grip. “Where are you dragging me to?" “Just wait and see." he grunted. Ahead, I could see his car parked. “Billy Gunter!” Asher called. Billy Gunter? Who was that? Logan froze. He suddenly turned ashen and released my hand immediately. No way. He was Billy Gunter? Is that his real identity? Does it mean Logan Greene was fake? Asher and the boys approached us with satisfied smiles. "Are you surprised at your own name?” "Don't be a fool. Or are you having double vision?” "Listen, Billy. If I were you, I would steer clear of Grace's path, else, the whole world is gonna know who Billy Gunter is, and I'm sure you don't want that.” Like…I couldn't believe Logan had turned red instantly. He looked so shit scared. "How long have you known?”Logan managed to ask. “Let's discuss that later. For now, stay away for your own good." Logan shot him one last glare before stomping to his car. We watched him zoom off angrily.

    I rushed over to him immediately. “Are you okay? Are you okay, Asher?” But he was unresponsive and kept clutching his forehead tightly, groaning in pain. "I swear, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. Take your hands off, let me see.”He obeyed instantly, but pulled me down to himself, and I fell on his chest."Hey, just stay put. Let's not fight again, okay? Obviously, none of us wants to do it. So be it then. We don't have to stage a fight of who's got a dirtier life, okay?”I thought our position was awkward because I was lying on him. But he didn't seem to mind. Should I mind too?Rather, he stroked my hair gently. "I understand we've got feelings for each other, but that doesn't mean our love for each other should be centered on making out, right?”I scoffed. "Excuse you? Who said I loved you?”"Why didn't you tell me you were a pro at the game last night?”Did he just switch the subject?I smiled. "Because action speaks louder.”"What if we play for an hour, then I sort a few things o
