LOGINJessie Stewart spent twelve years as an orphan before she was finally brought home to the Stewart family. For the first time in her life, she had parents and brothers. But the very people who promised to love and protect her turned against her. Bruce Stewart, her father, who once vowed she'd be his cherished daughter, told her that if she had any conscience at all, she wouldn't fight Mia Stewart, her adoptive sister, for a man. Her brothers, who swore they'd spoil her rotten, dragged her onto an operating table just to draw blood for Mia. As for her fiancé, Henry Lawson, every time things got dangerous, he chose to protect Mia instead of her. Three years later, Jessie's parents were on their knees in tears. Her once arrogant brothers slapped themselves in shame. Even her arrogant ex-fiancé knelt at her feet. They all begged her to come back. Little did they know, Jessie's heart had long since been closed off during those countless nights of pain and betrayal. She had already met the love of her life. In the years to come, she would never again be alone. He tended to her every need. To him, Jessie was everything and more.
View MoreJessie walked downstairs and headed off campus with Helena.At the same time, she texted Lucy.[What exactly do you want?][Entertain me.]Jessie stared at the message and almost rolled her eyes.She resisted the urge to do so.She usually couldn't be bothered to reply to this kind of message, but with Helena next to her, she typed back anyway.[Do you have no other friends? Why are you so desperate for attention?][...][Are you seriously that starved for affection?][...][Didn't you want me to entertain you? Why aren't you saying anything?][You're too mean.][Not as mean as you are. Anyway, I'm busy. Stop bugging me.][...]Jessie honestly had no idea what was wrong with Lucy. She begged Jessie to entertain her, but she wouldn't reply properly.Jessie felt old. She couldn't keep up with whatever went on in these kids' heads."Who pissed you off?" Helena asked.Jessie put her phone away. "Someone I can't stand keeps bugging me."Helena didn't know if she meant a g
Jessie walked toward the dorm. "Not really. I'm just thinking about switching rooms. Lucy is getting on my nerves. We just don't get along.""Switching won't necessarily make things better. I've been working in the student council long enough, and honestly, girls' dorms are the hardest to manage. Your dorm manager put you guys together on purpose. Your families are all pretty well-off, so they figured you wouldn't get into weird situations," Helena said with a chuckle."Weird situations?" Jessie asked curiously."Like stealing face wash, or using someone's expensive makeup without asking, or even stealing money. Although everything's cashless now, somehow it still happens," Helena replied.Jessie sighed. "Fair enough. Oh, right. After checking in today, you'll pretty much be at your internship nonstop, right? You don't really have to stay in that tiny partitioned unit. Can't you just stay on campus?""It's too far. If it weren't, I'd definitely stay on campus. Even the priciest do
[I'll check again.]Jack texted Jessie back.[By the way, how did things blow up between you two?][Rachel kept going after Lucy nonstop. I guess she finally snapped.][College kids really are straightforward. If we had to dig everything up on our own, who knows how long it would take.][Rachel didn't help me for nothing. She wants us to deal with Janice in return.]Jessie still wasn't sure whether Janice was actually Mia.[Why aren't you calling her Mia anymore?]Jack asked.[I'm getting confused myself, so I'll just call her Janice for now.][But I still trust my gut.]Jessie stared at the messages for a moment. She then told Jack she was going to take a nap and asked him to pick her up in the afternoon.After she pulled the curtain shut, Lucy instinctively glanced over at Rachel.Rachel quickly yanked her own curtain closed so that Lucy couldn't see her.Jessie closed her eyes and rested for a bit. Suddenly, her phone buzzed.She picked it up, saw a text from Lucy, an
"Is your dad Stanley Bradford?" Jessie got straight to the point."You don't need to know that," Lucy replied.The two of them started chatting casually, almost like they were newly acquainted friends."But Lucy, I'm just thinking about your age and your dad's age. If your dad is of Haldorian descent and moved abroad, and back then our country really wasn't as good as other countries, so that's understandable. If he really thought Haldoria was great, why would he emigrate?" Jessie asked seriously."How do you even know he emigrated?" Lucy frowned cautiously."Just a guess," Jessie said. "The way your dad talks shows he knows Haldoria well. People from other countries, except those of Haldorian descent, would hardly know the real situation in our country, right?""You're smart, but I still have to warn you. Shirley was such a nuisance that her family went bankrupt, and next it might be Rachel," Lucy said with a malicious smile."Do you know Mia?" Jessie ignored Lucy's smile.Luc
