CHAPTER 69 Focus on Me

  Kassandra's POV

  "L-Lynette..."

  She squealed and immediately embraced me the moment I called her name. Despite my shaking veins and everything, I can't help but to only muster a light smile—and I know that it didn't even reach my eyes.

  The sight of my friend feels like I was being pulled back to reality —as if someone has just poured a bucket of water full of ice on it, causing me to drain my own blood within me.

  I felt her check me around my body, turning me around as well!

  "Oh my fucking, God, we were so worried about you!" She yelled at me.

  "What the hell? Where were you?! Montgomery was fuming mad at whoever took you forcefully! Wait, were you kidnapped?!"

  "U-Uh—"

  "Uh, uh?!" She mimicked and rolled her eyes and pull me to the side, away from the crowd of people. I notice that Jarred is very keen about trusting Lynette because he keeps standing behind me still.
