She walked me and Tyler out of The Imperial Club. Before we got in the car, she shouted, "Don’t forget to text me on WhatsApp."
I let out a long sigh of relief after getting in the car.
"What's wrong?" Tyler asked with concern.
I shook my head with a smile. "Cassey is so different from what I imagined."
I 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.
After I got home, Theo had not come back yet.
Not wanting to concern myself with his business, I lay on the bed drowsily and fell asleep not long after.
The next morning, I was woken up by the phone ringing. I raised the phone and saw that it was
Xander. I quickly answered it. "What’s wrong?”
"I saw the news. Were you the one behind Petra's incident?" The first question he asked me was related t o a topic I did not want to talk about.
I 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?”
I narrowed my eyes. "Are you saying that I should do nothing at all?”
"That’s not what I mean."
Xander's voice was filled with helplessness. "I don't want you to turn to the kind of person you hate. I 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.”
I sat up from my bed, lowered my head, and chuckled bitterly.
