S3 120. Point Number Two

‘Remember point number two, Ava. You can’t feel small or inferior. Jeremy is behind you. So, don’t be afraid to fight back if someone is bullying you,” Ava said repeatedly to herself. Those sentences were like a mantra to her.

Five steps from the gate, Ava exhaled quickly. “You guys ready?” Her head turned slightly.

Two men behind her answered in unison, “Ready, Miss.”

Ava stopped walking with a firm expression. She and Eva were now only one meter apart, separated by beautifully carved iron bars.

Eva’s eyes went up and down, examining her sister from head to toe. Her cheeks scrunched up. “Do you think you are an empress? You want to show off that your life is happy now?

orders.”

Look, he even gave you two personal bodyguards. And judging from your haughty behavior, you must feel like you are the mistress of the house.”

Ava took a deep breath. Her body felt stiff, but she tried not to show it.
