SL*T
1240 Words
Gillian’s shoulder dropped downheartedly as she made her way towards her assigned room. The thought of how everyone in the Albrecht family didn’t welcome her because of the scandal that filled the internet made her heart stung with pain.
Upon recalling how her life was when her mother was still alive, a rueful smile appeared on her face. Back when her mom was not comatose, Gillian's daily life was always filled with joy, and she lived like a fulfilled princess with no knowledge of a word called worries.
Only when her mom was alive, did she have a home, but...
Ever since the hit-and-run accident that left her mom in a comatose state a decade ago, Gillian has lost her home, freedom, and happiness.
Nobody stood by Gillian anymore, and the person who promised to stand by her ended up giving her the biggest blow.
The thought of Luke’s betrayal stung her heart, causing tears to well in her eyes. It felt as if her heart was being clenched, making it very suffocating and painful!
Gillian’s eyes stung with unshed tears, and her little body trembled. She paused on her steps and leaned against the wall to gasp for breath.
The image of her mom on the hospital bed suddenly flashed past her mind, and she took a deep breath to calm down. Hopefully, her mom would've woken up within those four years.
As soon as Gillian finishes serving her term in the Albrecht family, she will leave the city and country with her mother to start another life.
Gillian wasn't concerned about Arison’s property. Not at all. After all, she knew that whether she liked it or not, everything was bound to be owned by Willa Arison, the legitimate daughter of the Arison family, and an illegitimate daughter like her would be given no cent!
The name Willa Arison stung Gillian's heart extremely.
Gillian clenched her fist, and her eyes shone with fierce glints. She promised. She secretly promised that one day she'd reveal the truth of Willa's dark nature to the entire world.
Thinking like this, Gillian took a deep breath and ascended the stairs before walking through the huge passage where her room was located.
Gillian bit her lower lip while wondering if she and Augustus stayed on the same floor.
Her brows couldn't help but knit, wondering if Augustus had been treated and if he was now fine.
Thinking like this, her legs hurried at their pace to her room. As long as she got rid of her wedding gown, she could check him up, see if he had eaten, and get treated…
BANG!
The sudden and deliberate collision made Gillian pause. The collision almost made Gillian fall back on her butt if it wasn't for her quick reflex. She furrowed her brows while thinking that enough was enough with all the senseless bullying!
Phoebe glared at Gillian's palm-sized, beautiful face, and a whole sense of indignation burned through her that she had the impulse to rip that slut-bewitching face apart.
Born by Head Maid Emma in the mansion, Phoebe grew up around Augustus all her life. She could even be called Augustus' childhood sweetheart. For years before she could even know what love meant, she had held a huge crush on Augustus.
Living in the Albrecht mansion without being treated as a maid and being pampered and fawned on by all the maids, Phoebe believes she is the beautiful princess and the upcoming madam of the Albrecht family.
Unfortunately, for years, Phoebe had always had low self-esteem, and she had secretly hated Head Maid Emma for being a poor single mother.
Only if Phoebe was born into a wealthy family that was on par with the Albrecht family would she have gotten together with Augustus through an arranged marriage made by the two families. Unfortunately…
However, some years ago, Augustus became retarded due to an accident. Although Phoebe was sad about it, most of her was happy that she finally had a chance and that Augustus had fallen to her status.
Following head maid Emma's plan, Phoebe carefully took care of Augustus in front of the whole family to win the Albrecht family's heart. Even though Augustus seems to be always dissatisfied to see Phoebe, her caring and sensible actions have made Mrs. Renata grow to like her more.
Observing all those things, Phoebe’s chicken self had secretly believed in her bubble that she was about to soar to the sky to become a phoenix, but...
What Phoebe never expected was that Mr. Arison would make a deal with the Albrecht family, and Augustus would end up marrying someone else apart from her! How can she swallow it?
Not to mention that Gillian was only a pretty face with no abilities other than to seduce men! Who knew how many men had slept with such a shameless w***e like Gillian? “Slut!” Phoebe disparaged angrily and cockily turned to leave.
Gillian’s expression darkened immediately. Today she received countless insults from many people just for an offense she didn't know about, which already made her anger surge.
Not to mention that this thick lady, who was dressed in a pink princess gown that didn't suit her at all, came from nowhere and deliberately collided with Gillian. As if that wasn't enough, she didn’t even apologize and even dared to call Gillian a slut!
Gillian’s face turned cold, and an oppressive aura exuded from her. She took a domineering step forward.
Somehow, an oppressive aura seemed to exude from her, and it made Phoebe tremble in fear.
Even though Gillian spent almost a decade with her single mother; for the rest of her life, she lived with the Arison family, and if it wasn’t for the many scandals surrounding her, she could’ve become a socialite.
Her brows furrowed and her head c****d arrogantly before eyeing Phoebe with contempt. “Don’t you think you need to apologize after colliding with someone? Are the Albrecht maids taught without manners for their masters?” Gillian raised her voice and lectured coldly.
Phoebe trembled in fear. Somehow, at that moment, she couldn’t help but see how low she was compared to Gillian in all ways. Although Gillian stood domineeringly and oppressively, there was a pure, noble, and graceful air around her that made her want to submit to Gillian.
Phoebe’s lips quivered in fear, and she bowed. “I. I’m sorry…” As soon as the words spilled out of her lips, she regained herself, and her face darkened.
Realizing what she had just done, Phoebe clenched her fist, and her face reddened in indignation. She couldn’t believe that this slut bewitched her to apologize!
Except for the Albrecht family and those top noble families who had Phoebe fawned on? She pointed at Gillian angrily, “You...”
“Good,” Gillian smirked indifferently and made her way towards her room, unaware of the multiple eyes that secretly watched her every action in the shadow. Her back and chin were straightened, and her mood obviously improved compared to a few minutes ago.
Phoebe's eyes darkened, and she stomped her feet. “You…” Her face turned green, and she paused her insult, afraid that Gillian would don that overwhelming aura and that she'd have to apologize again. “Don’t think you've won this time! You're unfit to be Young Master Augustus' wife. You can only be a lowly nanny!”
