According to the schedule given by Malibu Academy, members of the Royal group will gather at the airport and fly to the US to participate in the competition between major cities. After the unfortunate incident at Mount Alan, Ms. Jenny has temporarily stopped teaching and managing the Royal team. Her replacement was a young ballet teacher named Allison.
"Everyone, Esther Joan hasn't arrived yet. Does anyone know where she is?" Miss Allison asked.
"Miss, if we keep waiting for one person, we'll miss that flight. Esther is so irresponsible, let's just ignore her and go." Jade Rosaleen stood with her arms crossed and pouting.
Miss Allison was quite confused, she tried to contact Esther but couldn't.
"Miss, let's leave on time and don't wait for Esther." Veronica took her suitcase and spoke to Miss Allison. "She took a private jet to America before us."
Veronica finished speaking, smugly glancing at Jade and pleased to see her biting her lip in exasperation.
"She was probably on the plane and lost the signal." Veronica added, then she quickly grabbed her suitcase and proceeded to check in to board the plane.
Some people talk about this, it seems they have guessed that Esther was brought to the LA by Dominic in a private jet. Although Joan's family was also quite wealthy, they certainly never spent that much money on Esther. That infers only Dominic is the one to do this.
Even though they were jealous, they couldn't do anything to Esther.
About two hours later...
"If there's something wrong, give me a call."
Dominic's private jet landed on the large rooftop of a high-rise building. After advising me, Dominic left quite quickly, perhaps his work was very busy. However, he still volunteered to spend time with me.
I feel like after that avalanche, his personality changed a lot. He became more interested in her, often controlling everything about her. Of course she was delighted when Dominic showed his affection for her, but at the same time she felt a little pressured.
That aside, I'm quite satisfied with our current relationship.
When I went down to the hotel lobby, I saw everyone gathered here.
"Miss Allison, I'd like to take attendance."
"Ah, Esther, there you are." Miss Allison smiled.
According to Ms. Allison's instructions, we were assigned to different rooms in the hotel. One person per room.
"Hey, you know what, when I told you that you came here by private jet, Jade and her friends were jealous of you."
I smiled and shook my head slightly. Up until now, they have never liked me. Whether or not Kaylin intentionally smears and teases me, Jade and I can't be friends. Basically, we have nothing in common.
I sent a message to Dominic. Recently he asked me to do this, he said it would make it easier for him to know where I was and what I was doing. At the same time, he said that he could come to me in time if his enemy came and bothered me. But I think he's a bit out of his mind.
Finished texting and waited a while and I still haven't heard from Dominic, so I'm guessing he's busy with a company meeting. Taking advantage of my free time, I immediately took a shower and changed before going to dinner with the Royal group.
At the hotel restaurant, I ran into Jade and a few friends chatting. Seeing me, they suddenly burst out laughing and whispered something. It seems that I have once again become the subject of their discussion. This feeling is not pleasant at all, like I was bullied by them before.
I purposely ignored them, but as I passed them, Jade seemed to deliberately speak louder for me to hear.
"Someone bragged that her lover let her fly over here on a private jet. But she didn't know her lover was secretly dating another beautiful lady."
"Haha, that's right. That person is pitiful and stupid. She must have not heard the news to be so calm. Or is it because she already knows, but is afraid that people will laugh at her, so she pretends that she doesn't know?"
"Anyway, I feel she deserves this."
Those words made my whole body stiffen for a moment. I strode quickly into the cafeteria and sat down at an empty table. I pulled out my phone but hesitated for a while, still daring not to open it. I can find out for myself if what they say is true or not, if it is really Dominic who is secretly in love with another girl. However, I was afraid.
I'm afraid that if I find out what they're saying is true and Dominic actually cheated on me, I'll be in despair. I experienced that feeling once, the feeling of being betrayed by someone I love and cherish. I don't want to repeat that again.
"Hey, I'll bring you some food. Esther, why are you looking so lost? Your face looks so bad, let's eat something." Veronica sat down beside me all the time without me noticing.
I don't even know how long she's been here because my mind is on someone else right now.
"The honey grilled lamb is delicious, you should try it."
"Sorry Veronica, I thought I'd go back to my room to rest." I sighed, grabbed my phone and stood up.
"What? You haven't even eaten anything Esther. Tomorrow is the first round and you should eat well. I don't want to see you faint on the dance floor before you can perform the ballet." Veronica tried to convince me.
"I know, Veronica. But I'm not in the mood to eat right now. Maybe... I'll have a late-night snack later."
I shook my head and quietly left. I went back to my room, drank some water, and lay on the bed. After I calmed down, I opened my phone and looked at today's news.
The hottest news regarding Dominic, just like what Jade and her crimson friends talked about. Dominic Arnold has always been a man of discussion and curiosity. His life is so mysterious and makes people want to know more about him. Usually the news related to him is like financial news, economic news or some information related to events in which he is present. Even when he secretly engaged me, the press did not know.
This is the rare time that Dominic has an affair rumor.
Photo of him and a girl entering a building. Although your photo captures Dominic's back, I can confirm it's exactly him. As for the girl next to him, I don't know. She is quite tall and has long straight legs and long, jet-black hair. Even though it's just a blurry photo and it was taken from behind, there's no denying that the girl has a very pretty aura, and I bet her beauty is the same.
Since we were together, Dominic has never appeared with a girl other than me. Even though he is admired and wanted to be near him by many beautiful women, he still makes me feel secure. Because he is a man who is completely focused on his work and is with me most of the time.
But this time it's different.
The woman's intuition told me that the mysterious dark-haired girl would ruin my newly stable relationship with Dominic.
I sighed and turned off the phone. Maybe Dominic has already read this article. But he still hasn't called me or texted to explain. I honestly don't know what he's thinking.
