I was aware that the words I had chosen were as cruel as ever. However… I was just true to myself. I
had already made it clear that I didn’t need love from the very beginning. Love would only destroy my
life, like what it did to my mother.
I heard Uncle Karl sigh before he spoke in a soft and worried voice.” Celine… doesn’t he treat you
nicely? I saw on the television that he seemed to be very nice to you. Are you sure you don’t need his
protection?”
I remained silent while holding my phone tightly in my hand and chose not to respond to his question.
“I just hope that you won’t get hurt, Celine…” Uncle Karl continued. “I hope that someone will protect
you, since dealing with Julio Lauren is not an easy situation to be in. If there is no one around you who
can defend you, I have a terrible feeling that…”
I cut him off by saying, “Please, Uncle Karl…” which caused him to pause. “The world can be such a
harsh ce. If you put all of your faith in the decisions made by others, you will end up humiliatingly
disappointed. My mother was a living example!”
Uncle Karl did not react, and because I just now realized that I raised my voice a little bit, I took a long
breath and tried to calm myself down before I spoke again, this time using a soft tone.
“Uncle Karl, I know that you’re only trying to look out for my best interests, but… you have to know that
he’s not the person for me…”
He heaved a sigh.
“Always keep in mind that I’m here for you no matter what you decide to do; I’m always here to support
you, Celine…”
“Thank you, Uncle Karl…”
After that, I got off the call and hung up.

When I looked at the time, I saw that there were only two more hours of school left to go before it was
over. Therefore, I hurriedly walked down the corridor, and I was just about ready to go to my ss
when a youngdy with braided ck hair who was panting came to a stop directly in front of me.
“You’re Celine Anderson, right?” She questioned, barely able to draw
in a breath.
I frowned as I looked at her from head to toe.
“You… you’re Cynthia Anderson’s sister-inw, aren’t you?” she asked again when she sensed that I
was going to ignore her.
“Cynthia…?”
She nodded. “Yes. Some girls took her into an empty ssroom…”
“What? Why would they do that to her?”
“I think… it was because of a boy, but I don’t know the specifics of what happened…” she said. “When I
was on my way to the restroom, overheard a number of girls saying that they would take Cynthia
vacant room so that they could teach her a lesson…”
A lesson?
I did not hesitate and took hold of the girl’s wrist. “Let’s go! But hold
on… how can I trust you?”
“My name is Jessie…” She said while biting the inside of her lip, and I raised an eyebrow at her. “I… I
was once bullied by other students, and Cynthia helped me. After that, no one was ever brave enough
to pick on me again, and I owe a great deal of gratitude to Cynthia for rescuing me. I had been
following her in silence, despite the fact that she never allowed me to…”
After observing her facial expression, I reached behind her trousers,

slipped my hand into the back pocket, and took her phone before beginning to dial my number.
“Hey! What are you doing with my phone?” She questioned, but she didn’t make an effort to retrieve it
back.
“You’re aware of the repercussions, should I discover that you have been lying to me!” I eximed as I
handed her back her phone after getting her number. “Come on! Bring me to that empty ssroom!”
She paused as she put her phone back into her pocket and nodded. ” Okay!”

SAVING CYNTHIA
CELINE’S POV
“This is what you get for trying to seduce my man!” As soon as we reached the empty ssroom, I
made a halt and peeked into the door that was slightly ajar, and I was greeted by the obnoxious yelling
of a
young woman.
I found Cynthia dormant on the ground where she had been lying while the girl continued to send her
murderous gaze. The girl was dressed in a very short ck skirt and a red crop top. The heels on her
shoes were about five inches high, and her blonde curly hair cascaded all the way down to her waist,
and had delicate make-up on
her face.
“What’s her name?” I turned to ask Jessie in a whisper, who was standing behind me, waiting for me to
act to save Cynthia.
“Mnie…” she answered right away. “Mnie Calhoun…”
I immediately texted her name to Uncle Karl, asking for information
about her.
Around Mnie were three other young women who appeared to be wearing an identical ensemble of
opulent clothing; yet, their hair was styled in a variety of ways, each of which was distinct from the
others.
The only thing that they shared inmon was the sarcasm and disdain that could be seen in their
expressions as they looked at
Cynthia.
But what surprised me even more was the boy who was standing next to Mnie. He was crouching
down, so I couldn’t get a good look at his face, which made me frown deeper.

“You have no decency whatsoever, Cynthia!” The young woman yelled once more. “Did the daughter of
the richest man in New York attend this school with the sole intention of stealing someone else’s man?”
“You got that right! Shameless!” Cynthia didn’t put up any resistance at all, just like I didn’t when I was
being beaten by the girls in the rain, even though they shouted at her and started punching and kicking
her everywhere.
The only difference between us was that her brother came to rescue me, while the man who was
supposed to save her was just watching her cowardly while she was beaten up.
However, after seeing this, Mnie felt a great deal of discontent. She approached her, knelt down,
and pulled her hair, but Cynthia
continued to show no signs of emotions throughout the interaction.
“What if I release the footage of you sleeping with my man, huh?” she asked incredulously. “Would it be
such a huge sess that it would be talked about all across the city?” After that, she let out a
resounding chuckle. “Do you believe that your loved ones would take pride in seeing you be
famous as a result of an inappropriate video?”
Cynthia’s eyes avoided herpletely, and she instead focused her attention on the boy who was
simply observing the spectacle in
silence.
When Mnie followed Cynthia’s gaze, she questioned her. “Are you still hesitant to leave him?
Johnny,e here…”
The young man walked over cautiously after being startled.
“That’s enough, Mnie…” He uttered it with some trepidation.” You’ve given me enough of trouble for
today!”
When I did finally get a look at the boy’s face, I was taken aback. He

was an exact clone of Jake in appearance…
Now Iprehend the reasoning for Cynthia’s decision to have sexual rtions with that man. She’s
looking for a recement to help mend the holes in her heart that were made by Jake.
I couldn’t help but let out a frustrated sigh and shook my head in disappointment.
“What? Do you have anypassion for her at this point?” Johnny averted his gaze as Mnie
directed a furious re in his direction, since he didn’t want to make his girlfriend any more upset. “Do
you believe that if you’ve found a bigger fish like her, you’ll be able to just
cut me out of your life?”
Just… free Cynthia…” he pleaded in the end. “She has nothing to do with this. It’s me…”
As soon as Mnie stood up from squatting on the ground, she struck him across the face with a hard
p. “Johnny, I’m telling you this… if I’d raised you up in a tw inkling of an eye, I could easily destroy
you with one click! You better remain quiet and do exactly as say if you don’t want to end up in that
sleepy little country again!”
And the young boy fell silent.
“See this guy you like? Is it going to be worth it, huh?” She refocused her attention on Cynthia and
jabbed her in the head with her index finger. “You have till the beginning of the following week to get 20
million dors ready for me. In the event that you do notply, I will distribute this video to both your
parents and the entire city. When that happens, don’t me me for exposing your wild behavior in bed
to every man in New York City!”
“Twenty million dors?” I made a triumphant noise with my hands pping and walked into the room.
‘Oh my goodness, girl… you really do have a voracious appetite!”

Everyone was startled when they turned around to look in my direction. They became rigid when they
saw me smiling widely as I walked towards them. Jessie, who was cowering behind my back at the
time, was a little terrified at this point, but I reassured her earlier that as long as she’s with me, they
wouldn’t dare to touch her.
The three minions were instantly ced in a condition of heightened
awareness.
I paid them no attention as I strolled right on by, as I made my way over to Cynthia. I got down on my
knees and lifted her chin with my hand. ^
“Look at me, Cynthia!” I smiled when I saw her reaction as her sad eyes gradually began to condense,
looking at me with a hint of brightness in her eyes.
I stood up and faced the three girls shooting them a piercing gaze
one by one.
“Who gave you the permission to beat her?” When I inquired in a loud voice, they began to back away,
and you could see the terror in their eyes. “Can you afford thepensation of beating her?!”
They became speechless as a result of my prating gaze, and no one dared to open their mouths to
answer me.
“Oh… wow! Isn’t she the sister-inw who gained notoriety as a result of her indecent video?” I was in
the middle of confronting Mnie’s friends when I was suddenly interrupted by her mocking voice. “You
two-really do belong to the same family. However, she did steal my man. Am I not allowed to make it
public? I want justice!”
Because she didn’t appear to be terrified of me, it’s clear that she had expertise at dealing with
situations simr to this one.
“Did you just say justice?” I smirked. “Are we going to talk about

fairness with each other? Then let’s have a conversation about it, shall we?” I stated and she frowned
in confusion. “To begin, you’re calling him your man?” I pointed my finger at the boy who, upon first
seeing me, had the same shocked expression. “If that’s the case, then why was he with her? What
exactly do you think this imply?”
“Of course, it proves that she’s a s lut, just like you!” she started provoking me. “A wh ore who sna
tches the man that belongs to someone else!”
“You are incorrect…” I shook my index finger in front of her face, and her eyes widened. “What this
indicates is that you are devoid of all charms. You can’t even get a hold of your man. You’re such a
failure!”
And she was stunned, her throat bobbed up and down as she N?velDrama.Org content rights.
swallowed hard.
“Secondly, the two of you are not yet married, and Cynthia was involved with him without her not
having any idea about your connection to each other…” I continued. “We even have the option of suing
you two for being frauds!”
“What? Frauds?” sheughed.
“Exactly!” I huffed, rolling my eyes. “You didn’t show up until there was this inappropriate video, but
Cynthia has been with him for a very long time. It was possible for me to see it as a strategy that had
been camouged beforehand. After all, not everyonees from a wealthy family like us!”
“Celine Lauren, are you that shameless that you would turn the truth
into a lie?”
Now, as she was getting more irate, I was savoring every second of it because I had not yet reached
my goal.
But I paid no attention to her. “Thirdly!” I yelled right into her ear. “You brought Cynthia here in secret to
threaten and assault her without
