Jason stood up, determination etched on his face. "I'll talk to Ace and figure out what's going on. You stay here and enjoy the celebration."

I nodded, feeling a mix of emotions. Part of me was relieved that Jason was taking charge, but another part of me was worried about what might happen when he confronted Ace.

As Jason walked away, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. I tried to push the thoughts aside and focus on the celebration, but my mind kept wandering back to Ace and the puzzling conversation we had earlier.

Just as I was starting to relax, I felt a tap on my shoulder. Thinking it was Jason who came back, I turned to see Estella standing behind me, a sly smile spreading across her face.

"Look who we have here," she said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "The happy couple, minus the happiness."

I rolled my eyes, trying to ignore her. But Estella was relentless.

"You think you're so special, don't you, Audrey?" she sneered. "But you're just a pawn in their world. And the funny thing is you don't even understand."

I felt a surge of anger, but before I could respond, Estella turned and walked away fast, leaving me feeling frustrated and pained.

What did she mean?
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9dDHYH0ur
And what world was she talking about?

Who the hell is she to speak to me in that manner?

Last time I checked, her family background didn't even fit into my family's social rank, I huffed with my hands folded on my chest.

If she thinks her sarcastic input is going to make me determined to chase after her for more info, i scoff, girl will she wait forever because when next our path cross, i am going to smack some senses into her dead brain.
