Chapter 39
14: Betrayed
<<Avery>>>
After the embarrassing encounter with the hot jerk in room 903, I tiptoe to my own room. Lena spots
me immediately.
“Where were you last night?”
“Just… around…” I say, while tossing my clothes out from the luggage bag.
“Did you finally fucked someone?” She drawls.
“Maybe…” I shrug.
There is no way I will admit I slept in a stranger’s room. I would rather say I had a one–night stand. It’s less embarrassing.
She jumps out of the bed. “WHAT! Fuckin finally! Tell me Everything!!”
I roll my eyes. “Nope! I don’t ask you questions about your sex life!” I say and walk into the bath before she can bombard with more questions.
“Oh Well, I can tell you everything how boring my and Jake’s sex life has become lately,” she yells at
- me.
I smile but do not answer her. Knowingly and unknowingly, I have had a glimpse of their sex life. It seems pretty exciting. They do things I didn’t even know existed.
I wish I could trust someone to try those things. I think ruefully to myself and blush immediately. Why am I thinking like this?
Maybe it’s been a while.
I have slept with people in the past few months… It’s just… not frequent. This is why Lena gets pumped up every time she hears I spend the night with someone. I cannot date or get involved with anyone publically. As per my contract, it’s forbidden. Hookups are fine, because those are by default
hidden or secret.

Chapter 39
The Guys I have slept with before usually ask me about my scar on my waist and some even ask me about my stretch marks. One man was such a jerk. He asked if I had been pregnant before and if
that was how I got my stretch marks.
I felt embarrassed to admit I was fat before. I wish I could accept both my old and new body without any hesitation. I wasn’t fat because I was eating unhealthy food. It was hormonal and that kidney donation operation fucked up my body real bad. Stretch marks are not that prominent, but the scar
- is.
I hate it when people scrutinize my body and point out my flaws.
I guess it’s my fault. Somehow, I always choose assholes to date or hookup. Assholes like Celeb. I want to break this pattern, although I am not sure how can I do that.
Around noon, I pull over my rented car in front of Collins Mansion’s gate. Nostalgia and heart ache hit me at once. It’s hard to process that I am finally here. I press the buzzer on the side of the gate.
My heart is thumping hard. Probably new faces will be here. I glance at the camera so someone will
let me in.
“Oh My God, is it you, my child?” Uncle Orin asks. He has been our family for years. Family butler,
cook and what not? He even took care of me when Dad wasn’t around. Like a nanny.
“Didn’t you retire yet?” I exclaim.
He laughs. “I guess I wanted to see you again. You look different, but weak.”
It makes me laugh harder. He was one of the few people who always said, “You look good the way you are. Don’t change. What’s up with girls of your generation being thin like a stick figure?”
I never felt bad about my curves while growing up, because he never ever said a thing about me being fat.
I guess he will say I am a stick figure now.
“It’s good to see you, child.. I am busy in the kitchen. Come meet me here,” He says and opens the gate for me.
I frown. Is he roaming around with the gate remote in his pocket?

Chapter 39
Hearing Uncle Orin’s voice makes me feel better.
I pull over the car in the driveway and walk towards the front door. Am I supposed to knock on the door, or is it still my place? Can I enter without asking?
My dilemma doesn’t last for long as Dad opens the door and pulls me into a hug
“Oh, Avery… Orin told me he let you in!” He hugs me tight and tears simmer in my eyes.
I pull away and look at his face.
“You look old,” I say. His hair is mostly gray now, skin more loose. Only in two years?
He chuckles. “I am old…”
“And look at you.” He grabs my shoulder and looks at me up and down. “You look like a different
person!”
I smile.
“I am a different person, Dad.”
He steers me towards the living room and I glance around. Everything is the same.
“What she said was a lie” A voice booms from the door and I stiffen.
