Revenge 21: Spend Time With You Before Came to A Conclusion

"Yes... And you are?"

"Nathalia Vendallin." Anna saw her smiled and the way she sees it, it looks like a goddess fallen from the sky. Her light blue eyes complimented her blond hair and her facial features. If Anna was a man, she would chase Nathalia and marry her right away.

"You're one dazzling goddess..." Anna said her thoughts out loud, and this made Nathalia chuckle.

"Well, thank you for the compliment, young heiress." Anna flushed red. She's embarrassed about what she just said.

"Please don't call me that. You can just call me Anna. 'Young heiress' is a bit too much." Anna felt comfortable just by talking to her, but trust is something that she upholds the most. She didn't want to be deceived again and was already keeping her distance from Nathalia.

Nathalia can see in Anna's eyes that she's putting her guards up. People like her are having trouble trusting other people. She could tell that it's based on her experience that she's putting her guards up.

"I thought that you and Rebecca are close buddies?" Anna's left brow rises up. How did she know about that? The public doesn't even know about Rebecca and her. Only her close family knows about their past relationship.

"How did you know about Rebecca and me?" She didn't answer Nathalia's question and just questioned her back.

"We were in the same middle school and same class, but apparently you didn't notice me, and the only person you talk to is Rebecca, so in my process of thoughts, I came with the idea that you and Rebecca are best buddies or should I say former best buddies? Now please do answer my question." That would explain Nathalia knows about her and Rebecca. She must have been surprised to see the indifferent attitude of Anna towards Rebecca.

"At my grandfather's birthday party, she tried to drug me, but unfortunately for her, I avoided it, and she's the one who got drugged by her own drug." This revelation surprises Nathalia. She knows that Rebecca is not a good person since the day she laid her eyes on her for the first time in middle school, but this kind of act way over her, which was way too much.

"Wait... You said at your grandfather's party? But the next day, Rebecca was found out by a bunch of journalists naked with a man. The news said she got raped or something..." Before Nathalia could finish her words, Anna interrupted her.

"What happened to her was meant for me in the first place. I saw through her plans and used them against her. She ordered her manager to call all the journalists to come to the hotel at that time. How did she get to the hotel instead? Well, I asked my driver to send her there and let the staff members bring her to her room..." As Nathalia was listening carefully to Anna word by word, her goddess-like face frowned. She wonders how did she know all about that? But she just shrugged it off. She thinks that Rebecca deserves it anyway.

Anna was expecting Nathalia to say that she's wrong to do that to Rebecca. Even if Rebecca was planning to do that, she should not do the same thing, but to her surprise, Nathalia just smiled. The way she looks right now tells her that Nathalia doesn't mind it, and the way her eyes shone, it seems like Nathalia hates Rebecca and would not care about it.

"If I'm gonna be honest with you, you're one devious person, and I like it very much." Nathalia now decided to be friends with Anna. All she has to do is bring Anna's guard down and realize that she's nothing like Rebecca, who would betray her. She would be Anna's beck and call in all time.

"Oh~? Is that so? You're not gonna judge me like everyone else in this room. Everyone in this room already thinks that I'm a bratty and arrogant rich girl."

"Look, Anna, I don't judge a book by its cover. I would rather spend my time to get to know you before I came to a conclusion." At first, Anna was reluctant to believe her, but she just sighed in defeat when she saw that sincere eyes of hers and nodded in acknowledgment.

Nathalia would not want to push her too hard. She will take it step by step until Anna accepts her as a friend.

The two of them talk to each other for a little while until their homeroom teacher arrived. The class was starting already, but for some reason, Anna felt that her brother suddenly becomes so quiet the whole time, especially when Rebecca confronted her with her acting skills. It was unusual for him to be dead.

Anna thought that Aaron would make a scene when Rebecca was in front of her, but that didn't happen. Aaron was quiet the whole time, and she just realized it just now.

Anna took a peek in her brother's direction. The disappointment was clearly plastered on her face. No wonder her brother was so quiet. He was sleeping the entire time! Even when the class was starting, he's still sleeping!

Anna reached her arms and poke Aaron's shoulder multiple times, but it still not working. He's not waking up at all. In the end, she decides to take out her notebook and smack it hard on his head.

It was a loud 'bang' that surprises everyone, especially Aaron, his eyes wide and scratching his head in pain. Everyone looked in Aaron's direction with a confused look. Aaron doesn't even know what happened to him. All he knows that something hard was smacked to his head.

Aaron apologizes to everyone for the disruption, and Anna was sitting quietly. She may look like she's listening to the teacher's every word, but it was quite the opposite. Inside, Anna contained her laughter, her brother's confused look was something she cannot forget, Aaron's reaction was epic to forget.

Even Nathalia, who saw the whole scene, can't help but contain her laughter as well. It was torture for the two young girls to have their laugh inside.
