The Queen They Buried

Chapter 14

As he reminisced in the past, Emery suddenly covered his face and bent over, tears streaming down uncontrollably.

Carmen, who ranked top 100, got a bank card reward of 300 thousand dollars. Aubree, who topped the school, was punished to kneel all night, ending up in the hospital.

“Emery, I’ll definitely be as excellent as you and Byran!” Aubree’s dark, bright eyes flashed in his mind.

‘Aubree did it. She was truly outstanding.

‘But why did she hide it and claim she was at the bottom? Why silently comply with Bryan’s art school arrangement? Why didn’t she tell him?’ Emery was utterly puzzled.

Then, it suddenly came to him that Carmen must know about this.

Without wasting a second, he went straight to Carmen’s room.

As her door opened, he was a bit surprised to see Daxton still there so late, but he didn’t think much of it, as the two of them had always been closer to each other than the other brothers.

“Emery, what brings you here so late?” Carmen asked, dressed in cute pajamas, her rosy cheeks radiating the innocence nurtured by the indulgent care of the Wilson family.
