บททั้งหมดของ Revenge of an Heiress (Zima Triplets Trilogy #1) (English): บทที่ 61 - บทที่ 70

ChantriaI'm with Iwatani at the market for our picnic food. I don't know how our other classmates found out, but Gab and his friends will be joining us in our plan.I'm not sure who told them even though I know Lorreine is involved. I don't want to talk about it anymore because Louella and Iwatani agreed to it.Furthermore, it's not like he's exclusive to our group of friends. Only the overnight stay is exclusive because I won't allow anyone else to join us. That is supposed to be our bonding."Are you okay?" he asked. "Just hold on to me because it's a bit crowded. We might get separated.""I'm not a baby, you know." I weakly chuckled because I still held onto his arm so I wouldn't get lost.I'm not familiar with the place. As he said, it's crowded and there are so many people. It's Saturday. That's why I think there are a lot of people. Today is the only chance for us to go to the market because our picnic is later. We couldn't do it yesterday because we got home late, and there wa

ChantriaI laughed softly. "Does it mean that I can possibly like two men?" Well, the thought of that scares me."Don't get me wrong. I said you like us both but it's like liking a friend and liking a man." I paused for a moment. "I really can't explain this without giving an example."I raised my eyebrows in anticipation. He sounds like a love guru right now. It's like he knows a lot about love."Think of it as me liking you, and me liking your sister, Carleigh." I stopped at what he said. Okay? So, he's making himself an example. I don't know what to feel right now."What do you like about me?" he asked.I cleared my throat. "What? If you suddenly ask me that, how can I answer right away?""It's okay. Take your time. What do you like about me and how did you know you like me?"I took a deep breath and thought carefully. "I like you because you're always there for me whenever I need help. You were there when I needed someone to lean on. And you make me feel comfortable.""Like a frie

ChantriaWe partied all night. After the slow dance in the wee hours of the morning, we ate again to have more energy. "The night is still young," as President Jared said. The party ended at five, so we still had three hours to have fun.We danced in the middle when the music turned into a rock song. Lorreine was almost going crazy, as if she was drunk. Although I'm not as energetic as she is, I still tried to keep up with her because I was in a good mood too.A lot happened tonight. My feelings were like a rollercoaster earlier. My heart beat faster as I danced with Gab, I felt sad seeing him happy with Makino, then I found out he rejected her and still wanted me.Staring at Gab, I still can't believe he's mine. It wasn't that long ago when I was really annoyed at him for calling me a gold digger. It wasn't that long ago when I avoided him because I was afraid of what he would say to me.But here we are now, smiling like two idiots in the middle of the dance floor. Even though we kno

Chantria"So, who's the other guy?" she asked while looking at my friends who seemed to have breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that the tension between the two of us had subsided.I looked at my friends because I wasn't sure who she was referring to. "Who? Iwatani?""The other one. The cute one." My eyes twinkled because both Iwatani and Gab were cute. "The new one. I already met that Japanese-looking guy. The other one. The Spanish-looking one."I nodded. "That's Gab. My boyfriend."She raised an eyebrow in my direction. "I thought the other one was your boyfriend.""No, he's not. He's my bodyguard. What about that guy? Your boyfriend?"She rolled her eyes. "My bodyguard, Chantria. Dad didn't just assign a bodyguard to you. And he's annoying. There's no way in hell he's my boyfriend."I laughed at what she said. "You two look cute together."She grinned at me because of what I said. "You and your bodyguard look cute together too."I gave her a stern look. "He rejected me already.

Chantria"Why are you so surprised to see me?" he asked. "I told you I'm coming today, right? Did you forget?"I forced myself to smile, but it came out awkwardly. "I-I'm just... yeah. I forgot."He chuckled softly. "That's okay. I'll wait for you here so you can freshen up. We're going somewhere, and you're going to love it."He turned to head back to his car when I called out to him. He faced me with a questioning look."What? Is there a problem?" He walked towards me. He reached out his hand to touch me, but I didn't accept it."Let's not go today. I'm not feeling well."Ignoring my rejection of his hand, he touched my forehead. "You don't have a fever. But if you're feeling unwell, we can go there next time. Wait, I'll buy you some medicine."Before I could stop him, he had already left. I let out a sigh before going inside. I needed to figure out a way to get rid of him without him suspecting anything. I knew it was only a temporary solution, but I needed more time to think about
