Chapter 20"I'm fine..." He said in a very cold tone. I bit my lower lip, feeling another strange sensation in my chest. I also felt the distance between us as we stared at each other."I'll still call..." Arden was about to say something, but Aiden suddenly shouted at him."I said I'm fine!" Arden raised his hands in surrender to Aiden. I looked back and forth between the two, unable to control myself any longer."Aiden, what's wrong?! Arden is just worried about you! You don't have to shout at him!" I told him, irritated. Aiden turned his gaze back to me."All these things wouldn't have happened if you hadn't climbed that old gate!" He said, his voice filled with irritation. I admitted my mistake, but I was also angry."I didn't ask you to help me, did I? You suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the first place!""What do you want me to do then?! Watch while you're in danger?!" Aiden answered back, his voice cold and angry. He couldn't control his emotions anymore, but he couldn't ex

Chapter 22"I guess you have no idea what that is and what it's for." I scratched the back of my head because he was right—I had no idea what he handed me and what it was for."That's what you call clever claws. You're going to use that to shred the chicken meat." I nodded at what Aiden said, and then I approached the chicken that was already on the countertop. I was about to start shredding the chicken when I felt Aiden behind me. If someone saw us, it would look as if he was hugging me from behind."Aiden-" I was going to ask him what he was doing, but my words got stuck in the air."I'll teach you first how to use this because I'm worried you might shred the chicken meat in the wrong way." I pouted at his words."Che! I know how to use it!" But he still assisted me and taught me how to use the tool properly and shred the chicken."I can do it on my own now..." I said shyly to Aiden. Urgh! I felt weird about myself. Just a small gesture from Aiden affects me. If it wasn't for my rac

Chapter 24"It's so beautiful..." I said in disbelief, and I reached for the wooden terrace that had been painted white. There was a sliding back door connected to the inside of the house. There was a white beach umbrella, a sun lounger beside it, and not far away were two single gray couches. On the opposite side, there was an empty sun lounger and a circular table. Everything matched the colors of the items and even the tiles in the swimming pool, which were a mix of pewter gray and white.In the front, there was a large swimming pool, although the water wasn't very clear anymore. Overall, it still looked beautiful; it just needed a little cleaning. I sat down on one of the couches to feel the ambiance of the place, but at the same time, I couldn't help but wonder,"Who could be the owner of this house? Why does it seem like it's slowly being abandoned when it's still so beautiful? With just a little cleaning, it can be as good as new! Where could the owner be?" I had consecutive qu

Chapter 26"So if you're a nerd, bullying automatically becomes your name's partner! But if you're beautiful, it's fine even if you're dumb as a rock?! As long as you're pretty, physical appearance is really the basis?!" I said in frustration. I wiped away my tears harshly.I reached for my phone at the back of my bag, and as I swiped the screen, I immediately saw the notifications from people who messaged me.The latest one was from Arden.No assignment today. Good thing. I said to myself, feeling unmotivated to do anything if ever.But I took down notes to have an idea for our lesson today. That was the continuation of Arden's message, so it wouldn't seem like I was ignoring his message since he messaged me earlier. When I sent my response, I apologized for replying late and told him that I would check his notes on Sunday.Next, I saw a message from Aiden. The frustration I felt earlier, especially in my chest area, seemed to disappear like magic when I read his simple message.How

Chapter 28I decided to lie down on the sofa bed and punched my pillow in frustration, annoyed at myself for feeling regret. Even though Aiden didn't invite me to the barbecue, I felt a sense of sadness as I ended the phone call with him.I flopped onto the sofa bed and punched my pillow in frustration, annoyed at myself. That's when I happened to glance at the mirror on my vanity table.That's when I remembered that aside from the household staff, no one else knew about my makeover! I had planned to surprise Aiden the next day, so in the end, even though I was upset, I pretended to be asleep and decided to come down only during dinner."I can't believe you were able to finish three dozen barbecues, Amber!" Ate Rose said, laughing. I drank the soft drinks I had requested earlier because I felt so full from the barbecue that Aiden gave me."Oh, Aiden would be happy to know that you finished everything he gave you," Ate Rose said with wide eyes."Ate, please don't tell him!" I said, fee
