Rewriting My Heart's Fate
Chapter 3
Ethan didn't show up for our nighttime revision session. Leah left quickly too.
Ethan had already received a spot in a top university. In fact, I heard he got an offer from an overseas university too. He didn't even have to come to class. Everyone knew he only came to school for Leah. He even gave up the chance to go overseas. Looking at their empty seats filled me with bitterness. My emotions were a mess. Combined with all the strain of doing practice questions, I wasn't in a good mood when I got back home at night.
Moreover, seeing my lousy father, Jack Wiley, and my stepmother, Ivy Simpson, didn't help. I didn't even look at them. I just wanted to go upstairs straight away.
Jack asked, "Evelyn, how's the matter I asked you to talk to Mr. Grayson's son about?"
I scoffed, "What? Does Ethan owe me his life or something? You expect him to sign a million-dollar contract with you just because I asked?"
Jack's expression darkened when he heard this. Ivy tugged on his arm before he could lash out.
She said with a smile, "Your dad doesn't mean it. He wants you to help us get friendly with the Graysons! Aren't you and Mr. Grayson's son on good terms? Perhaps invite him over for a meal sometime?" "Not happening," I refused. "I'm the one pestering him. He hates me. Just give up."
"Watch your mouth!"
"Evelyn! Don't provoke your dad! He's been working hard to give you a good life. Surely you don't want his company to go bankrupt."
I chuckled darkly, "How I wish it would go to shit."
I wasn't going to let him keep the company running by wasting his daughter's life over and over.
"Evelyn Wiley!"
Ignoring Jack's furious outburst, I went back into my room. Closing the door, I took out my phone to look at my savings.
When I was in elementary school, my biological mother, Kayla Hubbard, learned that Jack and his secretary, Ivy, had a secret child who was half a year younger than me.
The divorce case took a whole year, but Kayla ended up getting a large sum of property. She left the country, remarried, and had mixed-race twins.
Ivy took her secret child and became Jack's wife, and the three of them soon became a proper family. I, however, was tossed about like trash. I didn't belong anywhere.
