Chapter 767 Indifferent
Queeny hesitated for a moment and replied, "I was out of town."
Sarah was shocked to hear that.
She asked in confusion, "What for?"
Queeny didn’t tell her the truth because what had happened between Felix and her was something she
didn’t want anyone to know.
So she beat around the bush. "I ran some errands."
Then she changed the topic at once. "By the way, hang out with me at home if you’re free these days. I
want to buy some clothes tomorrow. Could you pay for me first? I’ll pay you back later."
Sarah nodded. "I asked for leave to spend time with you. As for the money, don’t worry about it. You
can use mine first, and pay me back whenever you have money."
Sarah knew Queeny had no money now, and she didn’t want to put too much pressure on her.
Queeny was also aware of what Sarah was thinking about, but there was no point talking about paying
back at this moment, so she changed the subject.
The night passed peacefully.
Sarah’s two roommates came back the next morning.
Drunk, both of them threw up.
Different from Sarah, her roommates would go out with their clients after work so that they could earn
more tips, but, of course, they had to work harder.
They had to drink a lot of alcohol, and men might take advantage of them.
Sarah got up to clean up the apartment, do their laundry, and put them to bed.
The noise, naturally, stirred Queeny from sleep, but she didn’t offer help.
In fact, she didn’t usually get close to strangers. She might look like a genial person, but she was
actually quite indifferent.
Therefore, Queeny simply stood aside and watched Sarah quietly, having a more intuitive
understanding of her job and drawing the conclusion that she had to help Sarah get another job as
soon as possible.
With this thought, Queeny got back to the bedroom, got dressed, and left the apartment with Sarah.
The two of them had some breakfast first before going to the shopping mall.
Because Sarah did not make much money, they couldn’t afford to shop in some high-end department
stores.
Of course, Queeny didn’t think the goods sold there were good enough for her, but she still bought
some clothes for change in order not to disappoint Sarah. In the afternoon, she asked Sarah to go
home first, while she went to visit the Rosefinch Club’s old building.
It had already fallen into ruins.
Everybody was gone, and the place was sold to a different owner.
Queeny didn't get close to it but watched it from afar. The training ground she had used to practice on
had become a football field of a school now.
It was great though.
The darkness she had gone through had been turned into the positive energy these young people were
exuding, just like warm sunshine peeking in between the branches.
But what about the deceased?
Would those who were buried six feet under feel cold?
Queeny turned around and walked back, each of her footsteps heavy.
She thought to herself. She hadn’t become the woman she had longed to be yet.
She could never forget about those friends of hers, who trusted each other with their own lives, and
that was why she bitterly hated Felix for being so cold-blooded and ruthless.
Queeny walked to the seashore before she knew it.
There was no sand along the sea, but dark and ragged rocks outside the railings, which looked like
black and hard hearts.
She leaned out slightly against the railing.
She made a silent vow as she stared at the endless sea.
She must take back everything she had lost before!
Three days later, Felix sent her a message.
He agreed to work with her.
Queeny had expected this.
The car that Felix sent to pick her up arrived outside Sarah’s dormitory building after she received his
message.
When Sarah stared at her in shock and confusion, Queeny didn’t give any explanation but patted her
on the shoulder comfortingly and asked her not to worry for her. Before she left, she also told Sarah
that she would call her if she had time while Sarah could also call her if anything came up.
Sarah was still anxious, but also aware that she could never step into Queeny’s business.
She didn’t have the right, nor was she able to do that.
Thus, she could only bite her lower lip hard while watching Queeny leave, holding back the anxiety
within her.
Queeny got into the car heading for the castle.
At this moment, Felix was waiting for her in the castle.
The car rolled into the huge manor slowly as the wrought-iron gate opened with a loud crash like a
monster opening its mouth.
Inside the iron gate, there was a huge fountain in the garden, and behind the fountain was the main
building Felix lived in.
The car stopped at the entrance of the main building.
The driver got off the car first to open the car door for her. She got off and looked up at the magnificent
building, her eyes squinting slightly, her lips curving into a sneer.
Four years later, she finally came back! Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
The scenes of what had happened here four years ago flashed across her mind like a movie.
All the love, hatred, and agony flowed away as time ticked by, and now only bitter hatred was left.
She strode into the house.
Probably knowing she would come, Donald had been waiting for her at the entrance since morning.
As the butler, he put on a decent smile at the sight of her and greeted her, "It’s been a long time, Miss
Horton. Welcome."
Naturally, Queeny knew Donald.
Back when Felix and she had lived in Mr. Burke’s house, Donald always came to see Felix, and of
course, he cared for her.
For instance, he brought her food and toys, so the two of them knew each other very well.
Queeny stared at Donald and greeted him with a slight nod because she was respectful to him.
"It’s been so long, Donald."
Donald opened the door for her with an amiable smile and said, "Please get in. Mr. Bissel is waiting for
you."
Queeny gave a nod and strode in.
However, she heard a burst of laughter from a woman as soon as she stepped in.
The room was dim against the glorious sunshine outside. Only a few floor lamps were on in the
spacious living room.
She narrowed her eyes and stopped a few steps away from the living room door. When her eyes
became used to the dim light inside, she found that…
… The man was sitting on the leather sofa in the living room.
But he was not alone.
