ARNOLD’s POVAs soon as Celestine came to a stop in front of us, she directed her mournful stare at the woman standing next to me. At the same time... her fists tightened and her toe fingers curled, which caused my body to react in an unusual manner. I tried to catch her attention by clearing my throat, but she continued to look as if she were going to murder her sister as her eyes were fixed on her.‘‘Celestine! What the hell are you doing---’’‘‘Oh... how are you doing, my dear sister...?’’ Celestine cut her off and moved closer to show the intensity of her blazing gaze in close proximity. The lips of Leina quivered, and I couldn't tell if it was from anger or fear; nonetheless, I could see that she was feeling anxious as she attempted to cut off Celestine before she could finish her next sentence. ‘‘Mom is dead. Our mother is dead…’’Celestine’s words struck me as being inappropriate at the engagement celebration, but I didn't give a hoot about what she had to say at all. Even thou

CELESTINE’s POV‘‘So, you’re playing a trick on me, huh?’’Despite the fact that my chin was being painfully pinched by his fingers, I still forced out a smile through the discomfort, as I watched the light flickered across his eyes.‘‘H-how could I play a trick on you? I haven’t the slightest inkling of what you are saying?’’‘‘Hmm… is that so?’’ Arnold taunted. The smile on his lips widened, but the icy look in his eyes was enough to send a tremor through my body.This served as a clear portent of poor fortune and should have been taken seriously.As I expected, the man leaned over and came close to my ear, his hands forming prison bars on both sides of my body which made me swallow hard as I stared at him.At this same instant, each one of us was able to make out the distinct puffs of the other's breath. Both this position and the scenario had a titillating quality to them.‘‘Celestine…’’I was taken aback by the way in which his icy voice managed to coo cozily in my ear, but then

CELESTINE’s POV‘‘Excuse me, Miss Wheeler… but do you know the solution to this conundrum...?’’ The professor in my Calculus lesson drowned me out by my thoughts as I scribbled down some notes, largely the keywords I detected in his lengthy presentation, and I sighed in boredom because I was already familiar with all of this information.‘‘Sure, Sir…’’ I rolled my eyes as I got up out of my seat and scribbled the answer down on the black board, which earned me a compliment from Professor Kramer. This was the first week that I came back from school and I really don’t see the point of wasting everyone’s time by repeating information they already taught last year.As soon as the instructor began to explain my answer to everyone, I sighed and went back to my seat.‘‘You must find this lesson dull, doesn't it?’’ A man with a deep voice muttered to me as he leaned in and got far too close to me; in fact, I can smell the minty breath that is hitting my flushed cheek as he did so.‘‘Arnold…?’

CELESTINE’s POVI had to force a hard swallow as I felt his warm hand on my flesh, which was scorching. Nevertheless, the reverie was disrupted the very next second when Arnold spoke the most nasty remarks, which caused the smile on my face to freeze for a split second for a moment of stunned silence. ‘‘So… this is how you earn money normally?’’Because I didn’t want to appear weak, I fought back. As I gripped the lapel of his suit and murmured in his ear, the corner of my mouth twisted into a sneer once more. ‘‘Regardless of how I make my money… it remains the fact that you’ve enjoyed every last bit of my service, haven’t you?’’ While I was saying this, I rubbed my body against his, and his eyes darkened and became chilly. The sensation of his eyes cutting through my skin and reaching my nerves was excruciating.His expression clearly conveyed his abhorrence of the situation.As I stepped away from him, I maintained a very subtle smile on my face. ‘‘You don’t have to worry, Mr. Maxwe

CELESTINE's POV‘‘This restaurant has earned a reputation for having excellent food...’’ Blade remarked as he sat down and handed me the menu with an excited smile on his face.As I took the menu from his hand, I nervously bit the lower part of my lip. My scowl deepened as I looked over the list of the foods that were on the menu. Each individual dish cost not lower than forty-five dollars to purchase. It was too terrifying to order cuisine of this kind in this establishment.‘‘A penny for your thoughts?’’ The guy asked me, undoubtedly realizing that I was hesitating to order. ‘‘Is there something that's not quite right?’’‘‘No way, not even close...’’ I smiled awkwardly as I handed back the menu to him. This guy is here to swindle a lunch out of me, isn’t he? How did he even find a place this remote? My wallet was already crying at the prices on this menu.Blade took the menu from me and proceeded to place an order for some of the restaurant's most well-known and pricey meals, which
