After school, Violet didn’t tell Ethan before she left school because the latter wouldn’t even allow it. Since they had known each other since they were young children, they were familiar with each other's tastes and backstories. Because of his father's previous employment with the Mars Family, Ethan got to know Violet, underwent training with Mars Security Organization, and eventually earned his certification as a bodyguard in order to protect her. “Did you tell Ethan before you leave?” Ivan asked as he and Violet walked side by side through the street. “He is kinda obsessed with you. “He could kill himself before you return home if he knows you are with me.” “You don’t have to worry about him,” Violet replied. “I already told him not to wait for me. And Ethan is not obsessed with me, he is just being protective of me.”"Yeah, whatever," Ivan replied in an indifferent tone. “Are you sure you want to go and see her? Her street is not for a rich princess like you.” Violet frowned h
At the end of class, Violet still couldn’t get to talk to Ivan because he keeps treating her indifferently. The boy was more hard headed than she thought.When the lunch was almost over, Violet went to stand at the Teacher’s stand, her eyes roaming the quiet class. It was always like that in Classroom A. Since they are considered the most perfect class in the whole school, they are entitled to keep their image. Other people were whispering to one another, while some were reading and people like Daphne West were talking about makeup and trying on different makeup products. However, only one person was different. He sat on his chair, leaning heavily on it with his eyes closed. For a moment, Violet couldn’t take her eyes off him. Why was she so drawn to this boy whom she isn't so sure of?“Everyone, please listen” Violet broke the atmosphere of the class with her sharp definite voice after she regained her composure. “Can you please step out of the class for a second. I have to talk t
“My lady” Ethan called, handing over a file to Violet. “There is something definitely fishy about him. From what I found, he was a member of the Langland but his name was removed from the family’s register a year ago due to some reason which I couldn’t find. So right now, he is back just as a student with no family.”Violet looked at the file, her frown deepening. Being a treasure to the Mars family, Violet is more than just a member, and as such, she struggles to put her trust in other people. Given that a large number of her family members desired her death, she had to exercise extreme caution and awareness of her surroundings. “So she is Freddie’s brother but no longer Freddie’s brother? Do you think we should investigate him further?” Violet asked, dropping the file on the desk. She crossed her arm, leaning further on the sofa. “He is a little bit interesting though.”“My lady! You are praising him for being fascinating, but we are unsure if your life is in jeopardy at this poi
Violet Mars is the youngest grandchild of the Mars family known for her brilliance and beauty. Not only was she wealthy, she was known as the beauty with the brain of the school.Even though she was richer than most of the students, Violet kept a low profile in school unlike the West family who constantly caused trouble.She left the country a few months ago, and until she showed up today with her devoted bodyguard, Ethan Bush, many people believed she was never coming back. With growing curiosity, Violet could not take her eyes off the new boy in the class. She was only gone for some months and they already have a new student in classroom A.Something was definitely fishy.After learning about the events that had occurred in the few days since he had arrived at school, she was only able to conclude that the boy was someone she should be cautious around.“Violet, you seem absentminded. Is everything alright?" Glancing at the girl with a charming smile, the math teacher at the teache
The Big Mansion was the only building around the area as Ivan walked through the silent space. His hands were in his pockets as he raised his head to look at the towering building above.It had been a year since he arrived in this place, yet it only felt like yesterday.This place seemed to hold secrets that none of the members spoke about.Ivan entered through the large gate, his eyes as cold as ice, but as he saw the old man standing at the entrance, his heart softened a bit.“You're back!” The Old Man's eyes brightened, waving his hands in the air. “I have been waiting for you.”“I’m sorry I'm late. Something happened to a classmate, so I had to help her home,” Ivan explained, a smile on his lips.Old Master Reyfold was the father of Roshni, Ivan’s mother, and also the former president of the Reyfold Group.When Ivan first came here, this man had taken him in with open hands and a wide smile on his face. He never knew he had family from his mother’s side; even his father didn’t kno
In the small bar, the man sat, facing his desk with an amused expression on his face. “Is the assemblyman playing? He wants us to deal with a high school kid?” The man chuckled and set his phone down on the desk. “I will send someone later to deal with him. Where are the others?”“They went to collect money from those people” One of the men gathered at a corner not far from where their boss sat answered. “They are yet to be back.” “If the parents refuse to pay, the girl should come and start working here. I can’t be lending out money and be going through the stress” The Boss hissed. Soon after, two men with heavily bruised bodies and battered breathing burst through the door. “Boss!” They were gasping for air and writhing in agony. “We…” “What the f*ck!” With a curse, the Boss's shocked eyes grew wide. “What the h*ll is wrong with you guys? Did the SK Gang attack again?! I will make sure to kill their boss this time! Where is Snake?! Is he being held captive by their boss? Get me m
Ivan didn’t realize how far Sofia lived from school until he reached her street, and then he understood why she was often looked down upon in class.Sofia tried to stop Ivan, embarrassed, but he couldn’t abandon her, especially with Dahlia potentially causing trouble for the already injured girl.“You can go back now. Thank you for today,” Sofia said softly, trying to dissuade him, but Ivan persisted, thinking she was just being polite.Eventually, they reached a courtyard where an elderly woman stood expectantly. As her eyes met theirs, they brightened with recognition.“I was wondering why you were late. It seems you've brought a friend,” the old woman greeted with a smile.“We had a bit of an incident,” Sofia began, her voice low, making it hard for the old woman to hear.“You're back. Welcome,” the old woman greeted warmly.“Good evening,” Ivan replied politely, releasing Sofia's hand and bowing his head.“How are you? Thank you for escorting Sofia home. She's always afraid of pas
Ivan Langland broke Dean West's arm.It wasn’t long before the whole school knew what happened on the field. No one had expected Dean to land in the hospital. However, his injuries were severe, rendering him unable to stand.Surprisingly, it was Ivan who helped him to the infirmary.No one had expected this, considering Dean’s position as the president of the taekwondo club, his numerous awards, and his past representation of the country as a kid.It was difficult to believe Ivan’s single flip had broken Dean's arm and sent him to the hospital.“Are you going to talk to Ivan? I’m quite surprised he has changed,” the curly-haired girl uttered, playfulness flashing in her eyes. “I don’t even know why you pulled that on him a year ago, but if we are serious, he used to be so handsome before high school. He became more handsome after a year, still!”“Shut the f*ck up, Tory! Don’t say anything about what happened a year ago. We promised to keep each other's secrets. Keep my secret away fro
Many people had already gathered to watch Dean West demonstrate his skills when Ivan arrived at the field.At the moment, the boy was shirtless, showing off his well-defined abs and muscles while grinning wickedly at the girls who were constantly fangirling over him.Ivan's lips twisted in disgust, watching the scene. As he stopped in his tracks, he felt someone bump into him and it was then he realized that someone was behind him.“Watch where you are going and don't injure yourself" Ivan told Sofia who has been keeping her head down after he beat up those bullies. Ivan has heard a brief anecdote about Sofia's admission to class A. She was the only person in the class with parents from a lower socioeconomic status.Her mother was the cook in Daphne's home, and her father was the gardener. Sofia was able to join Classroom A because of this.“You don't have to do it earlier. They are Dean’s boys and would definitely do something to you” Sofia spoke slowly, avoiding Ivan’s gaze."Worry
