“Why couldn’t you just ask me directly? Why resort to such tricks? it's really not decent! Hurry up and take your things and move to the dormitory. That’s where someone like you belongs!”
Seeing his favoritism and indifference, Sasha swallowed all the words she wanted to say.
“Forget it, just leave it,” she said.
Three years ago, when she was working in her family’s factory, Juno came to inspect the workshop. At first sight, he fell for her and she had quietly fallen for him too.
For this love, she had been willing to cut ties with her family, give up her life as a wealthy young lady and travel far for the man she loved.
She never expected that in the end, she would become just a stand-in.
Now, she didn’t want anything anymore—not this place, not this man.
Once her thoughts settled, Sasha went to a phone booth, her voice choking as she dialed a number she knew by heart.
“Mom, Dad, I miss home. I’m willing to return and marry the son of the Maddox Family.”
On the other end, her parents sounded even more excited than she was. “Sasha, darling, we’ve been waiting for this day for three years. The door is always open for you.”
