Chapter 6
That night, I slept like a baby.
When I saw Janice again the next day, her face was bruised and swollen.
Not that it had anything to do with me.
She saw an opportunity when the classroom was empty to beg for pity, but I ignored her all the same.
Word spread like wildfire, and she quickly became the school’s laughingstock.
To my surprise, she left me alone for a while. Even Wilda had not seen her much. Her silence worried me.
While I was drifting in and out of sleep last night, I missed my mom’s messages:
[Sylvia… That classmate from your story… Was her name Janice?]
[She came over to the house.]
I jolted awake to my alarm the following day, only to realize I was almost late to class. I did not have the time to check my messages.
The class atmosphere was solemn. Wilda, especially, looked pale.
I asked the classmate in front of me, “What’s with everyone today?”
She leaned backwards and whispered, “We’re screwed! YL Group’s CEO is our country’s wealthiest and most powerful man. You know him, right?”
I nodded. That was my family’s business; YL was my mother’s initials.
I did not tell them that. I would not dare to again since it got me kidnapped eight times in elementary school.
My classmate continued, “You know what? You should guess. Guess Janice’s relationship with YL Group.

“Huh?” I was confused, “What are you talking about?”
“Hush! Not so loud, oh my God! Even if she’s illegitimate, we still can’t afford to make an enemy out of her! Wilda’s probably screwed.” She shook her head.
Janice finally arrived.
She walked into the classroom dressed in luxurious brands with expensive branded accessories. Despite dolling herself up in expensive clothing, she still looked like a bumpkin.
Quietly, the class laughed.
I squinted because those were clothes and my accessories. Everything she wore came from my room…
Janice gave me a taunting look, and when she walked past, she leaned down to mock me. “Right now, I’m YL’s,

your dad’s daughter, not you. Even if you were to come out and reveal yourself, everyone would only think that you were jealous.
“I’d watch how I behaved from now on if I were you. Or like last time, I’ll make sure both you and your mom die in that rented apartment again!”
She wrapped her arms around me and whispered, “Oh, and not that you’d understand, but your mom didn’t die of anger last time, no. I had her raped to death. Hahahaha!
“I was the one who dressed her up after,”
