Feign Compliance

Rae Bennett gave herself a birthday gift at her coming-of-age ceremony—a golden cage. Then she put the boy she loved into the cage. Friends said: We, girls, need to be gentle. So she painted the cage a powdery pink and studded it with glittering diamonds. He asked, "Why?" "Because I love you." She will do whatever it takes to make him hers, even if it means breaking him. What kind of person is Rae Bennett? Everyone would reply: She's a sunny girl who loves to laugh and brings warmth to the world. Wyatt Wright said: She's the moon on Halloween, capable of taking lives. Alternate title of the book: How the Scheming Little Witch Pretends to be Good (PS: The male protagonist is not weak. This is a sweet and healing story)

"She's not worthy."

Clement Atkins's words had a deeper meaning.

Allie Jones was pondering this when a beautiful woman gracefully approached.

"Master Atkins."

Clement Atkins looked up, "From the Watson Family?"

It was Alumna Palmer.

Despite the subzero temperatures outside, she was wearing a cheongsam paired with gloves and a shawl, her figure willowy.

"You remember me then."

Alumna Palmer had toasted Clement Atkins at a celebratory banquet, but not alone; there were nine girls in her group altogether.

She thought she had been remembered, her eyes filled with joy.

But Clement Atkins said, "I don't remember you, I recognize your brother."

Alumna Palmer had just entered the venue with her brother, Maxwell Palmer. She felt a brief moment of disappointment before sitting down and maintaining the poised demeanor of a noble lady, introducing herself openly, "My name is Alumna Palmer."

His gaze swept over her, his eyes as sharp as an eagle's.

Dangerous, but captivating.
