Chapter 1683
The clothes were all high-end, limited edition, designer – branded clothes. Before her family ran into a dead end
and she dropped from where she was, Lara never liked others touching her clothes. Even when she was attending
events, if an artist were to step on the hem of her dress by accident, she would rain fire and brimstone on that
individual.
Lara did not respond to him but became even merrier instead as she tore the clothes.
Ken got up and motioned to the servant. “Bring her to wash up.”
The maid stepped forward to help her up, and Lara reacted violently, struggling and resisting her. “Don’t touch me.
Go away!”
There was nothing that the maid could do.
Ken rolled up his sleeves, walked up to her, grabbed her by the hair, dragged her to the edge of the swimming pool,
and submerged her head into the water.

Seeing that she gave up struggling, Ken pulled her head up, and she coughed violently, gasping for breath as light
reflected off her wet and pale face.
Ken swept her wet hair behind her, held her chin in his hand, and lowered his voice. “Since you’ve chosen to
pretend that you’ve lost your mind, then you should put up the show for the rest of your life and don’t let anyone
find out.”
Lara’s shoulders trembled as her eyes dimmed.
“Don’t worry.” Ken lifted her face. “The Reeses are the ones who allowed me to climb to where I am today, and I
consider that a favor. If you were to die too, wouldn’t that make me an ungrateful person?”
He giggled and stroked the burnt half of her face with his palm. He did not seem to feel disgusted by it.
She dodged his hand subconsciously and was held down by him. “The Reeses lost power, and my fiancee was
disfigured, but I didn’t abandon her and took good care of her. So listen, this is such a beautiful story which will be
sung and praised.”
Knowing that he was acting in front of people but was actually imprisoning her, Lara could tell he was only using her
to showcase his sympathy , deep affection for her, and righteousness to make everyone stand on his side.
Thus, even if he were to take over all of Jonah’s assets, no one would doubt his intentions.
Lara glared at him fiercely. “The public will surely expose your hypocrisy someday!”
A hint of indifferent hilarity flashed across Ken’s eyes. “It doesn’t matter. After all, who will believe what a lunatic
says?”
Lara froze all of a sudden. Even her last ounce of strength was drawn out of her body.
The maid stepped forward and took her into the house, but she did not resist this time around.
With the college’s anniversary celebrations approaching, the students of the Department of Drama, Theater, and
Film had become very busy.
After Daisie rehearsed for the catwalk performance and walked out of the performance hall, she saw Ayan standing
at the entrance.
She walked over. “Ayan?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAyan turned to look at her and smiled. “Is the rehearsal over?”
She hung the backpack on her shoulders. “Yeah, you haven’t left yet?”
“Yeah.” He nodded and glanced at her as if he had something to ask of her. “I have a favor to ask.”
She asked, “What’s that?”
“Our lecturer asked me to find myself a partner, but my original partner can’t perform on that day because she got
caught up in something else, so…” Ayan shrugged. “I want to ask if you could help me with this matter.” Before
Daisie could answer, he added, “It’s okay if it’s inconvenient from your side. I’m just asking.” Daisie lowered her
gaze and pondered for some time.” Can you give me some time to ask my boyfriend about this?”
Ayan paused for a split second. “Will he disagree with this?”
Daisie explained with a grin, “It’s not that he disagrees. It’s just that I’m his girlfriend, so I have to communicate this
with him in advance, right?”
Although Nollace did not limit her in her friend -making journey, she did not want him to misunderstand.
“Is that so…” An imperceptible change flashed across Ayan’s face, but soon, he put on a polite smile. “Well, if it’s a
no go from his end, it’s not a must for you to help me too.”
After Daisie left, Ayan stared at her figure and fell into contemplation. Later on, in the dorm…
