Meeting

In a Few Days, a Banquet will be held to properly introduce the Female lead into the society as the biological daughter. It was the event that kick-started the romance of the Main leads. The part was practically drilled into my memory with how the author used multiple chapters to describe the event, down to the type of fabric used to make the female lead dress. It was love at the first dance with them. Not only that, but it also marked the proper beginning of my character spiral to stupidity and disgrace.

"Ahh" I cry out as I wince in pain. The memories associated with the event made bad emotions well up in me. With the pain I just felt, it appears that remembering the plot also makes me feel what the future me would have felt if I had continued with the plot. She felt shame and sadness mixed with hope, only to end up disappointed.

A part of me wanted vengeance, I wanted to scatter the plot, to destroy the main lead's love and watch the Quinn and the female lead burn. That part of my character that was obsessed with Aron believed I could do so with the knowledge of the plot and maybe seduce him.

But I reigned her in, even though the female lead appeared to be harmless and nice to a fault, she was anything but. Although the novel tried as much as possible to portray her as a saint, deep down she wasn't. Her Mojo was pretending to be a dead mouse to catch the foolish cat unaware, and that was what she did to the plot Teirrah.

I found out after combing through the plot that Teirrah's plans backfiring were no mere coincidence. I didn't want the drama and problems that come with associating with the main leads to follow me. Furthermore, I wanted a long life free from them. And getting revenge on them would be like bursting out in tears in public and expecting people to not look at you.

"Rumble" Ah, time to feed myself, I thought while looking out the window to see it was already getting dark.

*Knock, knock,* "Dinner is served"

"I am Coming"

Walking down the stairs I heard laughter.

"I am sure you will pass with flying colours and if not I will make it so" I heard Mr. Quinn say

" Teirrah... You are back!" Eva exclaimed

"yes, I healed quickly," I say with a smile

"I am so sorry I took our parents' time. Because of me, they couldn't accompany you" She said with teary eyes

"It is good that you are alright, we would have picked you up, but your sister admission was today, and you know she needs support," Mrs. Quinn said while pulling Eva into her arms. And as Eva buried her head into her shoulders, She wasn't quick enough to hide her smug smile. How no one could see through her was probably with the help of the female lead halo.

"You understand right" she continued on with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes, I understand that she requires directions on how to act in a school attended by the children of powerful people, considering where She had studied before" I replied with a clueless expression. I know I said no revenge, but I couldn't stop myself from attempting to embarrass Her. Her face was just annoying. And I could see I did.

*Cough, cough* "Food is Ready, let us eat," Mr. Quinn said while stirring us to the dining table in an attempt to defuse the awkward silence that occurred after my comment.

Dinner passed by with Eva hogging the attention of the parents. I noticed she always looked at me after every conversation like she wanted to see my expression. I always gave her a smile whenever I caught her which stunned her and made her expression a little unpleasant to look at.

"Excuse me, I am full and wish to sleep early" I excused myself while standing up.

"Wait, come to my office in 30 minutes, I want to speak with you," Mr. Quinn said while cleaning his mouth with a napkin.

"Yes, father," I said while walking away, seeing a happy expression quickly replacing her infuriated one on the female lead, I remembered a part of the plot I seemed to have forgotten.

I smile when I thought of it. This could be my chance to finally take the first step to change my fate.

*Behind the scenes*

Go on, keep pretending to not care. I know you do. Just watch me. Watch me take everything you stole from me

I cannot wait to see your tears.
