Luna

Ugh! Evelyn's little face was puffed up with anger, and she cursed silently in her heart. What had she ever done to this woman to deserve such treatment behind her back? The thought of being sent abroad filled her heart with reluctance. In this city, she had her best friend, and everything here made her feel attached and reluctant to leave. She would never go abroad, no matter what! Absolutely not! Evelyn gritted her teeth and raised her hand to push the door open. But then she thought again that she had no status in this family at all. Even if she appeared now, she would only end up arguing with Mrs. Smith and embarrassing Mr. Smith. After much restraint, Evelyn finally managed to suppress her impulse and left the villa in a bad mood. When she reached the trash can on the roadside, she pulled out the backpack filled with rags and Alexander's underwear, angrily threw them into the trash can, and stomped on them out of frustration. If Uncle Smith knew she had slept with Alexander last night, would he immediately send her away on a plane, not wanting to see her for another minute? This frightening thought sent a chill down Evelyn's spine. No, she couldn't let anyone know what had happened between her and Alexander! Although she wanted to pretend nothing had happened, Alexander seemed to have no intention of letting her go. He was like a hungry wolf, clutching onto her piece of fat meat and not letting go. Evelyn pouted her lips in dissatisfaction and muttered incessantly, "No, I'm not a piece of fat meat. I'm a fresh flower! Huh!" Feeling listless, Evelyn arrived at school almost at the last minute before class. Her super best friend Luna rushed to her like a whirlwind, as fiery and energetic as ever, with none of the gentleness implied by her name. Evelyn was staring blankly at the students in front of her when Luna suddenly patted her hard on the shoulder. "Hey! Evelyn!" Luna sat down beside her in a casual manner and asked gossipy questions, "How was the birthday party you went to last night for Emma? Did you have fun? Did you meet any handsome guys or have a wonderful encounter?" Evelyn's head started to ache as soon as she heard the questions. Last night, she had drunk a drugged drink and almost got taken advantage of by a stranger. Thankfully, she had struggled her way back home, but still couldn't escape her fate. Perhaps it was even worse, as she had entangled herself with a fierce character like Alexander. She didn't dare to imagine what her future days would be like. "Luna, don't talk about it anymore. My heart is tired!" Evelyn buried her head in her arms and lay on the desk with a worried expression, feeling sadder and sadder as she thought about it. Thinking about what had happened with Alexander and Mr. Smith's plan to send her abroad... Evelyn's mind was already in a state of chaos, wishing she had a time machine to change her tragic fate. "Come on, didn't any guy talk to you?" Luna looked at her in disbelief. She had been looking forward to hearing something interesting from Evelyn! "I..." Evelyn felt suffocated with too many secrets in her heart and pulled Luna closer, "Something happened to me last night..." "What's wrong with you? Did you skip the small talk and go straight to a hotel with a guy?" "Pfft—" Evelyn almost sprayed out her water. Had Luna's eyes been on her the whole time? How did she guess? Seeing Evelyn's excitement, Luna hooked her lips into a smile and lowered her voice in disbelief, "Seriously? Evelyn, did you really..." Evelyn silently nodded, her voice barely audible, "I accidentally drank a glass of wine last night, and someone drugged it!" "s**t!" Luna swore crudely, wrapping her arm around Evelyn to comfort her. "Evelyn, don't worry, I'll go with you to report it to the police! We'll catch that bastard!" "Report it to the police?" Evelyn's eyes widened, shaking her head vigorously like a rattle. "Luna, I'm fine. I wasn't... you know." Evelyn felt bitter! Could she really report Alexander? In the entire city of D, he was so powerful that such an action would be like asking for trouble. Moreover, it was she who had been drugged last night and had actively entangled Alexander. How could she blame him for forcing her? Such grievances could only be silently swallowed. "But..." Before Luna could continue persuading, Evelyn pleaded with folded hands, "Luna, please keep this a secret!" "I understand!" Luna nodded half-doubtfully. "Do you remember who drugged you? I'll get someone to beat them up!" "I don't remember..." Evelyn didn't forget, but she didn't want to involve Luna. Luna's words reminded her of a serious issue! She had to buy contraceptives! How could she have forgotten such an important thing?! Last night's encounter was intense, and the chances of getting pregnant were too high. As soon as class was over, she had to go to the pharmacy immediately, without a moment to spare. "Evelyn, don't worry. Whatever happens, I'll be with you!" Luna's eyes were red, looking like she was about to cry. "Those people deserve to die for doing such disgusting things!" The man who had pulled Evelyn outside the hotel Luna didn't recognize. She was embarrassed to ask Jiang Ruotong, as it would only make things worse. Seeing Luna worried about her, Evelyn was even more concerned about Mr. Alexander's plan to send her abroad. If she was sent away, it would be difficult to meet Luna again in the future. Evelyn and Luna had been close friends since childhood, and she couldn't bear to leave her best friend. "Oh, Luna, I have another big problem!" Evelyn sighed again, making Luna's heart tremble. "You didn't... again, did you?" "No!" Evelyn muttered in denial. "Mr. Alexander wants to send me abroad. I heard him talking about it this morning." "Abroad?!" Luna hugged her tightly, furious. "Are you going to leave me behind? I can't bear to be separated from you, Evelyn!" "I can't bear to be separated from you too, but I don't have a say in the Alexander family. Mr. Alexander might not listen to me." Evelyn was extremely worried. She was truly having a run of bad luck, and it seemed like the heavens were against her. After some hesitation, Luna suggested, "Then... why don't you ask your Alexander brother for help?" The name Alexander appeared unexpectedly, like a thread tightly strangling her heart. She felt suffocated for a moment before her chaotic breathing gradually calmed down. Evelyn pondered over Luna's words and found them somewhat reasonable. Besides her, there were only Alexander, Mr. Alexander, and Mrs. Smith in the Alexander family! Since Mr. Alexander and Mrs. Smith both intended to send her away, her only option was to see if Alexander would help. But given their current relationship... The class bell rang, but Evelyn had no intention of paying attention to the lesson. She sat like a statue, pondering and struggling for hours until school was over. The piercing bell still echoed, and Evelyn made a decision, jumping up from her seat and rushing out of the classroom. Even if hope was slim, she had to try asking Alexander! She refused to leave D city or Luna! Luna chased after her, but Evelyn was stopped by a figure before she could even leave the school. She blinked, and it was Emma. Luna panted as she caught up, breathless, "Evelyn... why did you... run so fast..." "Hehe, Evelyn, running so fast, are you feeling guilty about something that happened last night?" Emma asked with a cunning smile. "Afraid someone will find out?"
