She walkedand Tyler out of The Imperial Club. Before we got in the car, she shouted, "Don’t forget to text me
on WhatsApp."
| let out a long sigh of relief after getting in the car.
"What's wrong?" Tyler asked with concern.
| shook my head with a smile. "Cassey is so different from what | imagined."
| thought a spoiled lady like Cassey would be similar t o Cindy-arrogant, rude, uncaring, and stupid.
However, Cassey was obviously nothing like that. She was smart but a handful.
Tyler nodded. "Her mother isn't as simple as you might think.”
A mistress, who was able to turn her daughter into the eldest daughter of the Louises with a status much higher
than Grayson's, was not merely difficult to understand but also all-powerful.

topic | did not want to talk about.
| rolled over and closed my eyes. "I did it."
Xander sighed. "I know you hate her, Wandy, but how far are you going to go before you'll finally be satisfied?”
| narrowed my eyes. "Are you saying that | should do nothing at all?”
"That's not what | mean."
Xander's voice was filled with helplessness. "I don't want you to turn to the kind of person you hate. | think
you've done enough and should stop now. If you live every day seeking revenge, then those of us who care
about you will be really heartbroken.”
| sat up from my bed, lowered my head, and chuckled bitterly.
"It's too late, Xander. I've already turned into the kind o f person | used to hate. Actually, | don't think this version
of myself is bad. At least, this is much better than before when | wasn’t able to do anything but suffer in pain.”
No one should regret the changes they made, because the moment one wanted to change was the moment one
was unhappy with one's current state.
Xander sighed softly, not continuing this subject. "Are
you done with your work over there? When are you planning to cback to Salt City? Jerand | will g o and

I did not say that, though. Instead, | said, "We might go back to Salt City to celebrate New Year's."

looking for me.
The financial statement of the second half of the year was well over five times more than the first half.

to me. It’s going to be New Year's soon. Why don’t you give all the employees bonuses so they can all have a
