Love Game With The Rebel Billionaire

Chapter 9: Something Hotter Than This

THIS was the same paradise where I saw Ash. The gigantic trees were swaying in the air as if welcoming my presence. The large water fountain in the middle of the place seemed to move in harmony with the dancing trees, accompanied by the cool breeze that felt like an embrace, easing my feelings.

To be honest, I don't feel that bad. Maybe my heart has gotten used to it because this isn't the first time it happened to my family... but sometimes, my heart hurts because it feels so numb.

I can't feel anything and it frustrates me. I want to feel something, but I can't tolerate pain, like a broken flower vase held together by glue and tape.

"Wow..."

My thoughts faded as the lights flickered before giving a steady glow. It was breathtaking. It was like a scene from a movie, but I didn't expect to experience it here, even in this way.

I didn't know if this was a new park or just undiscovered by people because it was in a secluded area, but I was glad to be the first to discover this place.

Oh, right. I'm not the first person. It was Ash.

I smiled when I saw a table on the side. It's like the park owner knew I'd be studying here, huh?

I was supposed to study at home, but I was afraid... not of my father, but of myself. With so much anger bottled up inside me, I didn't know what I might do if I completely lost control.

"It's time to focus, Sapphire," I mumbled as I placed my thick accounting books on the table.

We didn't have a quiz, but I liked to study in advance. That's one of the reasons I survived this course. I adjusted quickly and tried to forgive myself every time I failed.

I was used to being alone, but I felt strange in this place. Part of me wanted to go home because I felt scared here, but I knew I needed to face my fears, so I picked up a book from the table to start reading.
