    Chapter 026 Burton House


    "Hello."


    Veromca gave these girls a warm smile.


    Ate lowered her cap peak and said lightly, "I''ll be off."


    Veromca nodded and watched her leave.


    Ate called a cab and opened the door for Lorraine.


    Her pendent hand resting on the edge of the door was rendered extremely fair by the contrast of her


    ck sleeve.


    When she turned her head sideways, the group of girls got the chance to get a clear sight of her face.


    Although being Idly andnguorous, her eyes contained a sense of undefined chilliness that made


    people hold their breath.


    They locked eyes for a short moment before Ate got on the cab.


    Veromca looked back and turned to the girls, "Enjoy your meal, girls.I''ll have to get going."


    "See you."


    Veromca nodded and said to Daisy, "Don''t go home toote."


    "OK, Dad."


    Daisy was still in her cute-daughter manner.


    Inside the cab.


    Ate hold the sleeve of her hoodie up to the elbows, exposing her slim arms.


    Resting one arm on the car window, she yed a game on the phone with the other hand idly.

    A momentter, she suddenly looked up and said in a low voice, "Pull over at themunity


    ahead."Getting off the cab, Ate narrowed her eyes against the zing sun.She frowned her


    delicate eyebrows, lowered the brim of her cap and put her hands into the jacket pockets.She just


    looked so cool.


    Lorraine froze at the sight of the magnificent gate.


    Burton House — she had heard of thismunity.


    Only the rich or the powerful could afford to live in this waterfront residence, say, the family of high rank


    officers or top stars in the entertainment industry.


    And she was going to live here with Ate?


    "Ate."


    Lorrain hurried up to pull her back when Ate was about to walk into it with her idle steps.


    "What''s wrong?"


    Ate tilted her head.


    Lorraine cast a shy look at themunity and whispered, "Ate, so this is the ce you


    mentioned?"


    Ate nodded and lifted her eyebrows.


    "So what''s the matter?" Lorraine swallowed drily.


    "You''ve rent a t here? It’s said to be super expensive."


    "Expensive?"


    She''d never lived in the t here ever since she obtained it.


    Vianne sent it to Ate as a gift when she was buying one for herself.


    Lorraine nodded seriously.


    "Indeed! All the residents here are high rank officers and super stars."


    Ate replied ndly, "oh, it’s my friend’s t and she lends it to me at a very favorable price."


    Lorraine was petrified.


    Looking at the expressionless face of Ate, that feeling struck her again: they were people of


    different worlds.


    There was just no such thing as problem to Ate.She could fix everything well.


    The two girls were stopped by the janitor at the entrance.


    "What are you here for?"He pointed at them.


    The janitor had his gaze roam over the girls’ cheap clothes, and stop at their faces with great contempt.


    Lorraine frowned at his disrespect.


    "Do you know where this is?"


    He said with great hubris.


    "Burton House! Don''t smudge thend here, you poor girls, get out of here!"


    Look at your ragged dress.


    How dared youe here? Thought you were pretty enough to climb up? Ate’s bloodshot eyes


    swept through the janitor with some fearsome ruthlessness, which just sent a chill down his spine.


    She then took out a ck gold card and passed it to him with her clean and thin fingers.


    His face changed instantly, and the arrogant aggression totally vanished without a trace.
