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)

379: Clement Atkins Gets Drunk and Breaks the Peach Blossoms (First Watch)_1

Hailton's bar operates on a membership basis, and celebrities often come and go.

Alumna Palmer has crafted an image of an aristocratic princess; her agent usually doesn't let her come to places like this, but today is an exception. She's accompanied by the second daughter of Greg Development Bank and the youngest daughter of Hamilton Prosperity Group.

It wouldn't matter if outsiders took photos, since the people she hung out with were all daughters from elite families.

Her friends asked her if she wanted to dance.

She was distracted and looking elsewhere.

"Alumna."

"Hmm?" She snapped back to reality, "You guys have fun, I see someone I know, I'm going to say hi."

She spotted Clement Atkins.

Clement Atkins was alone, drinking at the bar.

Alumna Palmer sat down beside him: "Drinking alone, huh?"

He didn't respond, uninterested in the people, events, and sounds around him.

The bartender asked Alumna Palmer what she would like to drink.

She said, "I'll have the same as him."
