Chapter 1
As early as seven years ago, I had been aliniited into the National Security Section
Sadly, before I could make a decision on this job, I had been sent back to Ouray by any real parents.
During the seven years in Curay, I wanted to escape every day, but I couldn’t.
A good beating anvalted me whenever I attempted to rum away.
Thiring the seven years in Curay, I saw through my so–called family.
After my foster dad died, I applied for the National Security Section again.
“In ten days, on December 10th, we will pick you up at 9PM. shap by cat.”
In ten days.
1 raised my hands and covered my ears to block out the sound from the living room.
Luckily, I would leave this home where nobody loved me in ten days.
The next day arrived. When I left my room, I saw Grace in a white dress sitting on the sola lilo a princess.
My dad, mom, elder brother, and fiancé surrounded Grace.
The butler brought a make.
The crowd said at the same time, “Happy birthday, Grace.”
Grace had happiness in her eyes.
I was an onlooker of Grace’s happiness, though it was supposed to be mine.
The crowd gave Grace their respective presents to celebrate her birthday.
Out of the corner of his eye, Adam spotted me when he was ready to hand over his gift
“Amanda, come! Let’s celebrate Grace’s birthday.”
Adam beckoned me over, and he tailed to notice the abrupt change in the expressions of the others.
Grace said affectionately, “Amanda, I’m sorry that I didn’t go pick you up yesterday, I was sick. You won’t be mad at me, will you?
Before I opened my mouth, Adam said, “She won’t because she has a big heart”
Hearing this, Grace grabbed Adam’s hand and said, “Amanda, today is my birthday, so I wanna ask you for a gift Could you please give me Adam?”
She bluntly got b
berambition exposed, and the others silently waited for my aiswer
She was the most shameless person I had ever seen. After a sneer, I asked, “What if I say
Grace’s expression froze in place.
Grace the expressed her grievance in French. “It was a joke, and I didn’t expect and to take it seriously.”
My mom comforted Grace in French. “Darling, don’t be sad. Amanda and I share nothing in common. She is stingy and pretentious.
My dad joined the conversation with French “Grace, don’t lower yourself to her level. You are the only daughter to Kerry and me.”
My elder brother spoke Freschi too. “Grace, you are my only sister.”
What a loving family
I played dumb and asked Adam, “Why did they say?
Adan’s expression fruze before the we came “Grace was kidding, and they didn’t want you to misunderstand her.”
Misunderstood Grace
I would be fooled if I didn’t speak French.
How could they lie to my face without batting an eye?
My mom was a musician, and my dad had been somebody in the business world during his youth.
Dreame
They enjoyed face.
Therefore, they looked down upon me and saw me as a barbarian from a remote village cut off from civilization even if I was their real daughter and at
victim of the kidnapping
All these years, all their love was reserved for Grace
Ten years ago, Grace was admitted to a less–known college, and my parents hell a party to celebrate it.
They didn’t know that I was admitted into the prestigious Olden University. Besides, I had taught inyself French, Italian, and Spanish….
Never mind, because I would soon lewe this testible family and the hypocritical Adam.
I
“I just arrived in Timmon and intend to explore it. Enjoy yourselves, and see you around.”
After that, limpel ancay when my family and the servants looked at me with contempt.
Behind me, my family continued to belittle me in French.
Nerent them remembered that day was my birthday ton.
