GABRIELLA'S POV:

Morning soon came and I headed to school along with Adela who was sound asleep as her head rested on my lap in the car while we were on the road. She slept wayyyyyyyyyy after her bedtime because she and my mom were busy talking about her new boyfriend.

Can you believe that she has a boyfriend before me?! And my mom was happy!

I suddenly got a message from my mom.

"Sweetie I just left the house. I've instructed the staffs on what to do. I'll be home by Sunday, hopefully. Take care of you and your sister. By the way, your Aunt Kimberly said she'll be checking on you guys during the week. Love you❤." I think she said earlier that she was going for some fashion show in Rome....I don't know.

I replied back. "You too mom and OK."

The traffic light turned green and Mr. Jason took off with just the right amount of speed. Mr. Anderson, my bodyguard was Ill so Mr. Jason, one of the new guards took his place until he's OK and ready to work.

When we reached the gates of the school and entered the premises, we dropped Adela off at her class then he drove me to my building and parked at an empty spot in one of the parking lots.

I was about to come out when he offered to open my door for me. I wanted to argue but I was too lazy to. I rested my back on the car seat and sighed.

He came over to my side and opened the door. He stretched out his hand for me to take. I didn't want to be rude or anything so I took it. I grabbed my bag and got out of the car with my hand in his.

The staffs at the mansion knew that I don't like all these stuffs but considering that he was new and all, I had no other choice. Sooner or later, he'll get to know what to do and what not to do.

"Thank you." I gave him a forced but genuine looking smile and he returned me a dashing one.

"I'll be here by three sharp Miss Gabriella." He said and I noticed he had a little bit of Cockney accent in his voice. Awwwwww he had a British accent and on top...he had cute dimples.

"Uhh...no need for the Miss shit...I mean stuff. Just call me Gabriella or G or Gaby. Anyone you're comfortable with."

"OK uhh....G." He smiled and entered the car and took off.

"Hey Princess!" I heard a bitchy voice say angrily.

There was only one person who could make my morning spoil by just them talking to me and that was....

"What do you want Chloe?" I turned around and looked at her. She looked angry. Really angry.

"What the hell is wrong with you?!....because of you the both of us have a meeting with Marigold after school."

"Excuse you what did I do?" I rose my brow.

"You opened your fucking mouth and said we both are performing for the After Party. Remember?!......Do you take a shot of tequila before you come to school every morning, cuz' you sure act like an intoxicated human being who was born without any brain cells."

Dammit! What was I thinking back then?! "Look, I'll find a way for us to get out of this."

She laughed bitterly. "You seriously think you can convince Marigold when me of all people was trying my fucking best to convince her. Don't think your special Newb that you can convince people like Marigold."

"I thought you said your powerful and everyone fears you and does whatever you want them to do." I smirked.

"I am you dirty little rat!.....she's just......hard to persuade and—"
