MISTAKE 33

Chapter 33: Plotting Against Anya

Courtney Jones woke up to a resounding headache. She had not gone home for a long time and was only back for a week. She had been out all night and could barely recall how she had returned. She looked up at the clock by the side of the bead to find that it was

almost afternoon.

She got up from bed and washed quickly. It took her almost an hour to be done as she had a splitting headache.

By the time she got to her father's office, he was stoically drinking tea while her mother stood by the side to serve him.

She barely acknowledged her mother when she zoned in on her father behind his large mahogany desk, who threw her a glare.
