NovelEnglishAs David trudged down the mountain with weak steps, two cars were driving up from the
bottom.
David clutched the rock, legs trembling and drenched in cold sweat, deeply regretting setting up the situation to
embarrass Natasha without first understanding the full picture.
Although he still felt Olivia was pitiful, when he shared the splight, his dream of playing a hero to avenge
Olivia was no longer pleasant.
He didn’t know his phone had received countless missed calls from his parents scolding him, nor about his
impending fate of going to Cabath to meet up with Matthew.
Otherwise, he might have wished for death.
When he encountered the first car coming up the mountain road, he instructed his driver to stop it.
The car was stopped, and the window rolled down. David glanced at the woman in the driver's seat.
She looked somewhat familiar, but he didn’t recognize her.
It wasn’t a luxury car, so he felt she probably wasn’t from the social circle of Andphis City.
He raised his chin and stated, “I'm requisitioning your car to takedown the mountain. I'll give you 3
thousand dollars.”
Claire first sized up his hair, noting it wasn’t the blonde she remembered, before her gaze fell on his arrogant
face.
Her lips tightened as she thought, ‘A person's true nature wouldn't improve with time, it
seems.
She restarted the car and said, “Get your man out of the way, or I'll run him over.
After saying that, she actually edged forward slightly.
David's driver was startled and jumped away before David could even speak.
David glared at him, watching helplessly as the car that was his only hope drove away. Smelling the car exhaust,
he began to curse loudly.
He felt that he wasn’t supposed to talk to any women today.

Meanwhile, Claire, driving forward, looked at David cursing by the roadside in her rearview mirror,
expressionless. Many past events cto her mind.
Her encounter with Natasha took place because of David.
One year, Claire's class and several other classes from higher grades organized a team- building event at Mount
Misty.
Claire took on many miscellaneous tasks for the class since she was the leader of the group.
Claire’s parents were ordinary workers, and she had a younger brother. Her family heavily favored their son over
her.
She was plain-looking and had an introverted personality, making her the type no one noticed at school.
To earn money for tuition, she diligently took on various tasks, such as helping others with homework and
running errands.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe becthe leader of the group entirely because a group of wealthy high school students was unruly,
causing headaches even for the teachers.
Rather than a leader, she was treated more like a servant by him. No one wanted her job.
However, because it helped in obtaining scholarships, she still actively applied for it.
As a result, she was ordered around even more.
David was the most excessive among them.
He often helped Olivia buy water and books to curry favor with her.
However, instead of doing it himself, he would order her to do it, regardless of whether she had something else
to do or if it was windy or rainy outside,
When Claire ran errands for other classmates, they would either pay her or occasionally
thank her.
David, however, always threw his money on the ground whenever he paid her.
He was also her most generous client. If Olivia gave him a smile, he would even add a little tip for Claire.
During the team-building event at Mount Misty, they didn’t stay in a hotel.
Instead, they pitched tents at a wilderness campsite because Olivia wanted to watch the stars.

Claire had her period that day and felt very unwell, but David did not allow her to take leave because he always
needed her available.
At dinner time, Claire spent a long talone, preparing barbecue ingredients in an open space near the cliff.
By the tshe felt something was wrong, she already noticed a large wet patch behind her.
Stiffly, she dug a package of tampoons out of the backpack next to her. Before she could get one, a pair of hands
snatched it away.
David, blushing, held her tampons and said, “Good thing you happened to have some. I'm taking it for Olivia.”
After saying that, he threw 30 dollars at her feet.
Claire sat on a rock, enduring severe stomach pain, and grabbed his hand. “I'm not selling it. Give it back to
me!”
David's face darkened. “I'm doing you a favor by using your stuff. What's with the act?”
Claire bit her lip. “But | need it too.”
She thought for a moment and said, “Olivia just needs it for an emergency.
“You must have already arranged for someone to bring her something more expensive from down the mountain.
Give her two, and return the rest to me.”
As a teenage boy, asking around for tampons and then arguing with a girl over it felt deeply embarrassing. David
just wanted to escape. He was not in the mood to care about her needs.
He said, “Just bear with it.”
Claire was impatiently pushed to the ground by him.
When David sent the tampons to Olivia, Claire saw Olivia frown in distaste and seemingly say something.
David then coaxed her in a low, humble voice, pointing towards the bottom of the mountain.
Only then did Olivia's expression improve. She took it and turned to leave.
That pack of cheap tampons never made it back to her because Olivia threw the rest away after using them.
Claire sat on the edge of the cliff, rigid and afraid to move.

The dampness beneath her spread to more areas, while a group of boys just moved onto the path she needed to
take to leave.
As a teenage girl, no matter how introverted, quiet, or disheveled she usually was, she still had sensitive self-
esteem.
The sky grew darker, the wind grew colder, moisture welled up in her eyes, and even the pain in her lower
abdomen seemed less significant.
She stared blankly at the dark bottom
of the cliff, thinking. gespaicand!

Balt deserve even basic dignity?
‘It was clearly just a pack of rubbish they don’t want.”
The singing and laughter of the boys and girls were light and bright, the smell of barbecue was rich and enticing,
and the stars were beautiful.
However, Claire felt like a rat in a gutter, only hoping that they would quickly finish their event and leave.
Just as she felt she was about to freeze to death, a jacket was placed over her.
The notoriously arrogant Natasha stood behind her, pointed at her face and covered stomach, and asked, “Are
you uncomfortable?”
Claire knew that Natasha was rumored to be Olivia's cousin.
Olivia appeared noble, gentle, and understanding. Natasha was rumored to be willful, evil, and had even caused
the death of Olivia's mother.
Few people liked talking to Natasha.
The only people often seen with her
were Sadie, who was also rumored to
be a notorious bad WirlRort the
Teh ele Fee and Lucas, the
school heartthrob who was two
grades above them. The content is

Their toften felt completely out of place.
They were mismatched, yet seemed harmonious to be together.
Claire once saw Olivia try to invite Lucas to a meal, but he bluntly refused her.
As the school heartthrob, accomplished in every way, Lucas was uniquely gentle and affectionate only toward
Natasha.

Many times, Claire saw Olivia casting resentful, cold, and intimidating gazes from behind them.
Claire didn’t think Natasha was that bad, but they weren't close, and she feared getting into trouble.
She was already living a difficult life.
Of course, Natasha didn’t seem to have an easy life either.
After all, Claire only needed to work diligently and occasionally put up with mockery to find
peace.
Natasha, however, was constantly hounded by Olivia's admirers like vicious hyenas, and she was not one to back
down.
Sometimes, Claire even thought meanly, ‘See? It's not only ordinary people who get disliked."
Claire had never thought that in the
