Take Me Away

That afternoon, Spencer guided Fiona into his car as they left together while a crowd of students eagerly stared at them.

"I’d give anything for Mr. Cheng to treat me like that!"

"Why’s he allowed to drive off with her just like that? I want my dad to pick me up, but our teacher doesn’t even allow it!"

"I don’t think your father has the amount of influence that Mr. Cheng has on the school. How dare the teacher offend him?"

Sophia pursed her lips discontentedly as she listened to their gossiping.

She wanted to roll her eyes because of how clueless they sounded. At the thought of this, she suddenly sighed. The Cheng family was one of the most powerful and richest in M City, though they had a lower profile than other families. They could do whatever they wanted. Of course Fiona couldn’t do anything against them.

Fiona sat in the back seat on the way back to M City. Johnson was an ever so skilled driver—she didn’t feel the slightest bit of swaying.

"Did you tell Grandpa that I got hurt?" she asked.

"I told him you sprained your ankle, but I didn’t mention that you rolled down the mountain," Spencer, who sat beside her, responded. "He’ll be worried to bits if I did."

"That’s good." She breathed a sigh of relief. "Grandpa has a bit of a temper, so don’t let him give a reason to blow his fuse. Just listen to what he has to say, and follow his orders."

His phone then suddenly rang through

the quiet atmosphere inside the car.

He took it out of his pocket. Upon seeing who was calling, his demeanor visibly changed.

It was Celine.

Fiona lifted her head in curiosity. She hesitated as soon as she saw the name on the screen, then looked away.
