2: THE HEIRS OF BEIVEN
The atmosphere inside the car was very gloomy, but Aster behaved as if she knew nothing. She instead stared calmly at her study notes even though that boy beside him had been uneasy since they entered the car. In her heart, Aster was eager to laugh at her who now suddenly played the role of a good fairy. That boy must have been surprised when Aster suddenly turned to care for him. This sudden change of plot could even cause the child not to sleep well all night last time.
When the car has stopped in front of their school. Aster took her bag and did not look at him because she immediately walked away. Aster's face was so calm when ignoring a few surprised stares when they saw a taboo who also got down from Aster's car.
The resting hour had sounded so it woke up Aster from her reverie. As she looked at the few girls who were standing in front of her desk, Aster lowered her eyes to cover her eyes full of ridicule.
Just because Aster is the daughter of the owner of the Beiven group and the owner of this school, the friends who have been surrounding Aster are reliable theater performers. Aster is aware of her own status, she is just an adopted child when she was 10 years old was suddenly brought to the Beiven family. Moreover, unlike Beiven's family line which has a charming and charming face, Aster has a beautiful standard face with wheat-colored skin. Her friends wanted to be Aster's friend because she was Beiven's not because of she is Aster. And the most disgusting is Aster willing to be friends with them even though she already knew the intentions and contents of their minds from the beginning.
Because Aster really doesn't have friends.
When reminding the pain of loneliness and emptiness, Aster was unable to experience it again. She is willing to be part of that hypocrites.
It was then. In this life, Aster does not guarantee that everything will stay the same.
"Aster, I think my eyes might have been mistaken, but a bug came out of your car, didn't you, guys?" Helina's sarcastic voice echoed throughout the class and a few people quietly smiled behind Aster.
Aster with an expressionless face did not answer. Some of the girls in front of Aster who glanced at each other with mock eyes suddenly vanished.
Helina spoke again, "Well maybe I did see wrong. How could our Aster who is the heir of Beiven Group go with a child whose origins are unclear. Yes, let's go to the canteen. Aster will definitely go ‘there’ again, right? "
Aster nodded modestly and slowly walked in the other direction from her friends. Whatever it is, it's not too good to change so suddenly so she doesn't mind playing with them either. Let them feel happy for a moment when they do not know who is lurking in the dark.
Just imagine it is being able to lift Aster's mood.
On the other hand, suddenly the friendly faces of Aster's friends turned to vomit. Kyle who was standing next to Helina shook his head in pity.
"Aster ... Aster ... if she just the legitimate daughter of Mr. Beiven, everything would be going easier. It's a shame that the adopted child would even be arrogant. If it wasn't because of Beiven Group, how can I supposedly want to talk to her? Ew. "
Leah giggled. "Kyle, it will be dangerous if Aster hears."
Kyle just sneered.
Lethan walked slowly toward the canteen. He was still pondering the attitude of Aster who suddenly became concerned about him. He was confused and suspicious but could not find a single clue. Lethan suddenly grinned, really if she changes well, will Lethan forget his attitude all this time? Is Aster too innocent to believe that if she starts to behave well, Lethan will forgive her?
Lethan shook his head in pity. Well, he also wants to see to how long that evil woman is wearing the facade.
Lethan who always walked looking down suddenly doused with juice. Lethan's eyes immediately turned cruel. He tilted his head and instead appeared innocent teenager faces when staring at the perpetrators were afraid.
"Ouch. I'm sorry, "said Leah with a mocking face.
Lethan put his head down again as if he was a coward who was embarrassed when he was looked at by someone else. Leah is happy too see it and immediately glanced at the canteen occupants who were also interested in the daily activities of Leah, et al.
"Duh Leah, that's the drink that Aster asks us to bring for her," Helina added with a scared expression as if explaining that this action was solely ordered by Aster, Lethan's own sister.
"Oh dear, is also the only juice left. Don't know what Aster's anger will look like .. "Helina's voice was getting louder and suspicious, but anyone who listens won't find any guilt in her voice.
Lethan was still looking down and there was a smile of ridicule that no one could see. Indeed he could not repay their actions at this time but wait later when he was able to get out of Beiven's house. He will repay this humiliation in a thousandfold. Lethan who was silent due to delusion became jolted when he heard Aster's voice carrying a trace of arrogance.
"What is this?"
Aster's slow but firm voice jerked the people. Instantly the occupants of the canteen stared intently at Aster. Who doesn't know Aster? Beiven Group's subsidiary. Beiven School Foundation's golden girl. This arrogant and lonely woman suddenly came to the canteen that she didn't want to step on. What's wrong?
Lethan was also a little surprised, staring in amazement at Aster's presence in front of him. He was even more confused when Lethan somehow felt that Aster was focused on Lethan's wet uniform. Before he could think too deeply, Aster turned her attention to Helina and smiled at her briefly. Then approaching Lethan leisurely and unexpected step, she took out her handkerchief to wipe the juice stain on Lethan's uniform.
Actually, her actions are classified as something ordinary but in fact, it feels inappropriate.
Conversely, Aster was attentively wiping away the stain even though she tried as hard as she could, in the end, it did not fade. Surrender, Aster turned to Lethan's face which as soft as a baby. Lethan's eyes stared in astonishment at Aster. At first, Lethan wanted to stay away from when the hand reached him but when he remembered that it was not right, he held it back.
Aster is full of inner turmoil. In the past, she would not be nosy in the affairs of others even if the one in the trouble was his own younger brother. She does not care. Now things have changed to force her to take every opportunity just to get a good impression on this child. So disgusting and making Aster nauseous.
"How can you be this careless?" said Aster coldly. "The streets are this wide but unable to set a good eye, in the future watch your steps."
For a few moments, people felt Aster's words sounded ambiguous, making them nervous. As for Aster when she felt enough, she threw the handkerchief well into the trash can. She looked at Lethan whose eyes were restless so Aster coldly said again.
"Lethan, are you listening?"
Lethan was caught red-handed. His cheeks turned red which when others saw him felt that the boy was shy and clumsy when Lethan was actually very offended. He pursed his lips and replied with a small, weak voice.
"I understand."
Aster nodded. "It's good if you understand."
Then she stared at the person who first started the problem and then glanced at the empty glass of juice that Leah was still holding.
"What happened that you were so careless and embarrassing yourself. You and I are Beiven but you still forget who you are. And for you, Leah, I hope there is no misunderstanding because of this little thing. "
Leah still didn't understand the change in the plot that was happening so she just nodded. As if enchanted when Aster gave a naive look, Leah momentarily felt like a mouse caught red-handed. As a result, her eyes moved here and there trying to avoid her gaze.
While Kyle who was standing next to Leah looked at Aster with a probing look but she didn't say anything about it. She only smiled at Aster with a look of interest.
