CELINE’s POV
Mrs. Anderson and I went downstairs and quickly headed over to the dining room, only to find a man who looked exactly like Sebastian, seated at the head of the table. Only his hair was gray in color and the wrinkles on his forehead were now visible as he frowned, reading a
newspaper.
Seated on the right side of the table was Cynthia, Sebastian’s younger sister, looking intently at us as we approached the table. “Come sit beside me, Brylee…” Mrs. Anderson said as she took a seat on her husband’s right side.
I bit my lip as I obliged, sitting down beside her, with Cynthia opposite mine. Then my eyes shifted to the man who had just emerged from the kitchen, holding a coffee mug.
Sebastian…
He winked at me and my face flushed so much that I glared at him, only to earn a snicker from him as he sat next to his sister.
“Brylee… help yourself to whatever it is you want to eat. Feel free to make yourself at home…” Mrs. Anderson remarked, patting my hand in a gentle manner. “And if there’s something you want to eat that we don’t have here, just let our chef know, and he’ll cook it for you…”
“Thank you…” I managed to plaster an uneasy smile. “I think… this is enough for me…”
After that… a disdainful scoff was heard, and when I looked up, I saw Cynthia roll her eyes at me.
I don’t have any idea what her issue is with Brylee… so, I have nothing
1/5
to do with her rage towards my sister. I paid her no attention as I put bacon and egg on my plate and started eating.
However, the environment was uncomfortably awkward due to the fact that every eye in the room was focused on me and was following my every move. Because I was using Brylee’s identity, it was extremely difficult to pretend to be someone else in front of the individuals that cared about her. If only it were my own identity, I wouldn’t pay any of these people any attention.
Then I remembered that I was going to settle an important matter at school today, in reference to continuing my studies. Today is supposed to be the first day of the new school year for me.
I finished my meal as quickly as I could, ignoring Cynthia’s mocking gaze as she watched me eat. “I’m so sorry but I have to go to school today. I…”
“Really?” Cynthia raised an eyebrow at me, the fork she was holding was playing with the food on her plate. “When did you become so fond of studying, Brylee? As far as I remember, you don’t give a if you’re going to be late or not!”
“Cynthia!” Mr. Anderson stopped her with a warning tone of voice.
“It’s always been Brylee’s personality…” she said. “She did not give a da mn about school, about the teachers, or about her studies at any point in her life. She was solely concerned about her life after marrying Seb!”
I fixed my gaze on the haughty young woman and smiled at her in my most endearing way, but all she did in response was roll her eyes at me before she went back to eating.
Such a spoiled brat girl!
“I am very grateful for your kind welcome, but Lreally have to go…” I stood up and bowed my head in respect before I excused myself and

walked out of the dining room.
“I’m heading to the company…” I heard Sebastian say, followed by a sound of a chair scraping on the floor, indicating that he was standing up from sitting on the chair.
I quickened my pace and strode to the door, seeing a black limousine parked in front of the house, similar to the one we took yesterday. I had just gotten past the driver who was standing next to the car and was on my way to the gate that my eyes couldn’t reach, when a deep voice just stopped me in my tracks and prevented me from moving
forward.
“From here… you will need to walk for fifteen minutes in order to reach the gate…” I turned around and I saw Sebastian standing behind. me with his hands shoved into the pocket of his pants. “And once you’ve made it through the gate, you still have another fifteen minutes of walking until you reach the bus stop…”
I didn’t pay attention to what he was saying and continued wall
“You don’t want to be late on your first day of school, right?” and made me stop in my tracks again. He was right. If I want to hav better future and continue my vendetta against my family, I need to get at least a degree so I can rub it in their faces.
I took a few deep breaths and swallowed before turning on my heels and walking back to the car. And as soon as the driver opened the door, I immediately slipped inside, with Sebastian following behind.
The seats were as comfortable as I recalled them to be and there
were the same amenities and refreshments placed. The partition had already been taken down, and not long after, the luxury car drove
away.
I was curious as to what Brylee would say to me once she saw that Sebastian had driven me back home after she had seen me arrive.

This would definitely cause her to cry out in a rage once more.

Sebastian’s touch on my knee jolted me back to reality, and I realized he had said something which I clearly missed, but I didn’t care. He was free to talk as much as he liked, but he should never expect any
answer from me.
After that, though… he gripped both of my knees and lifted both of them to drape over his lap, which caused my eyes to get wider as I looked at him. “W-what the heck are you doing?”
“I’m just making you feel comfortable…” he whispered, and began to rub circles on my kneecap, before slowly slipping his hand up under my dress. However, I slapped his hand, which caused him to laugh out loud while throwing back his head.
I shifted to sneak a glance at him. For some reason, I felt awkward admiring his handsome looks and wished I could just stare at him without him knowing. But he was already looking at me. And he was so unbelievably good-looking. I almost wished we had never been in this kind of situation so that the thing he told me, that I was going fall in love with him would definitely come true.
“You know… you can stare at me all you want if you want to. You have my permission…” he said with a hint of amusement. He was looking at me the same way I was looking at him-like we were memorizing every detail of each other’s faces.
He has a tiny little mole hidden in his right eyebrow and I wanted to find out where else he had these little marks. His eyelashes were considered long and thick for men, and I was mildly jealous about it; it was no wonder his deep blue eyes were what captivated me the most.
Now, I was really staring… and I couldn’t help myself. I loved seeing the gold flecks in his iris and how his pupils seemed to dilate as I looked into them.

“But don’t fall for me yet. It’s too early…” he let out a groan and then brought our faces closer together, pressing his lips against mine. He wasn’t being kind in the least, and he was trying to convey his desires to me through his kiss. It didn’t help that his hand found its way under my dress and was hovering at the edge of my underwear. I was
quivering down there.
brought my hands to his chest… and I could feel his heart thump as quickly as mine did. It was as if our hearts were beating in sync. When his index finger brushed against my core, I moaned into his mouth and gripped on to his lapel, tugging him closer.
But then he pulled back and slowly set my feet down on the floor before I noticed the car had stopped for a little while now. “We’re here
he announced, and I could feel the heat of embarrassment rising up in my cheeks.”
Was I really so distracted by him that I failed to notice what was going on elsewhere?
