Something Hidden

Richard didn't know Andara, and he even knew the young woman when he saw her the night Jessica mistreated her.

Maybe he had never even seen her wandering around campus, which Richard thought was odd.

"Do you rarely interact or prefer to stay away from the crowd?" Richard asked the question, not without reason.

He just wanted to know what happened to everyone who said they didn't like Andara.

True, after the events of that night, once he found out what had happened and only found some information that couldn't be considered valid, and again, the woman was notoriously bad. However, it wasn't known to be wrong in what way. No explanation was too necessary.

Andara Ayudia Puri is an ugly girl who entered through the scholarship path, and there is no other information.

But a surprising thing caught Richard's black eyes.

Andara's photo is different from now.

How Richard got information down to personal data is that he has access to it, apart from being a programmer. Finding this out was the easiest for him.

Only two people knew about Richard's abilities. Who else but Kenzo and Andres?

Like Andres, who has hired and made someone dedicate himself to giving more results for Andres, Richard can't always provide the information he wants because he also has a job that demands responsibilities.

"I'm more comfortable like this and don't want to make other people uncomfortable with my presence when they feel forced to interact, either alone or in groups."

Richard walked over to the sofa and again fiddled with the beauty cream in his hand.

"Didn't many accept you?"

Andara did not immediately answer. The young woman seemed to be in deep thought.

"I'm more comfortable like this and don't want to make other people uncomfortable with my presence when they feel forced to interact, either alone or in groups."

Richard walked over to the sofa and again fiddled with the beauty cream in his hand.

"Didn't many accept you?"

Andara did not immediately answer. The young woman seemed to be in deep thought.

"Do you know Myra? She is one of the people I want to be friends with, meaning the one who greets me because no one approaches students who enter through the scholarship pathway like me, although there are indeed some who enter this particular path. But only she is friendly enough to me."

Understanding what Andara meant, Richard just nodded his head in understanding.

The man does know how JB students interact and thinks more about those who can give, not those who only receive.

Such people should be eliminated.

"Then for this cream, do you believe it? Is it because you don't have anyone else that makes you think only women are good, don't you think, and you accept all her gifts because you believe she is a good person?"

"What do you mean?"

Richard got up and returned the cream to Andara's hand.

"I'm sure you're smart. Otherwise, you can't get a full scholarship while at JB, but trusting someone about what is good for your life, you should also be more careful. Like this cream."

Realizing the point of their conversation leads to the man doubting the goodness of Myra, her best friend. Andara chose not to respond to Richard.

"You can't say that either. You don't know Myra."

"Of course, I don't know her, but hearing you say it is like she's only worried about the state of your face. Have you ever thought about it?"

Andara felt uncomfortable with Richard's words about Myra's treatment of her, while the man didn't even know her.

Seeing Andara's attitude, Richard knew he had gone too far. If it weren't for feeling strange about the cream, he wouldn't have been able to ask such a question.

This woman in front of him was too innocent, and how could he cooperate with Andres if she could refuse her and not make the issue of their closeness that would later be publicized even more cornered her?

"Just like you and Andres, why would you accept the deal? Has he been good all along, and you know him, then you accept it without thinking, just like Myra."

Andara was surprised.

"There's nothing Andres can hide from the two of us, so what's your reason for accepting him? Other than his not Myra?"

"Of course because, because, because he promised with this face, I'm afraid others will stare disdainfully at me for this face being so scary."

Richard understood the woman's uneasiness but couldn't she have done anything other than accept the deal?

"You know that entering the William family is not as easy as you think. There is a lot of drama in his life, especially the principles of Andres' parents. So if it's about a deal with a timeframe, what I'm afraid is, you'll find out more about that man's life."

"No," said Andara, shaking her head.

"I just follow what we agreed to and the rules that the man-made, and I can put myself in place and realize that I am far from worthy."

The man understood and gave a faint smile. The woman was wise but did not know what kind of William family she would meet later.

The figure of a young woman strolled towards several people staring intently at her.

Others stared lazily and wanted to get out of there.

"What else now? You're still not satisfied with the result, huh?" said one of the beautiful women sitting on the luxurious sofa with an annoyed look.

She was leaning against the connecting door of a large restaurant not far from Marina Bay, where she used to spend her evenings with young and handsome men.

Just a small smile.

"You're always causing trouble, and how could it get any worse? Even that guy stepped in right away. You really are useless, and what you should get will never materialize even once, you see."

"Very cunning, you think you're smart to do that too. If you feel better than me, do it yourself, and not blame others."

The woman who leaned back now changed her position to fold her arms in front of her chest, looking annoyed.

"Aren't you that ex-man but can't do much? That's far too pathetic. And don't talk nonsense. You leave this mission and never appear again. One more time, I will expose your rottenness."

The woman sitting on the sofa was getting irritated and turned angry.

"You're wrong, and I will reveal who you are. It's easy with just this, then Andara will know who is behind everything that happens to her face, unfortunate, always by the side but can't do anything but be with her like a friend. You coward."
