Heiress 22

Jess' POV

*KLANG *KLANG *KLANG

*RING *RING

DAMN IT!

I irritatedly went to the bathroom and did my morning rituals. I applied my skin essentials and took a bath then applied my moisturizing lotion and my liptint. I wore my uniform and my forehead knotted because it's still ringing.

I read the caller ID and an anonymous number is flashing.

"Hello?" I said after answering the call

[Ohayo, Jess. Now get down here because we'll be late. I love you.] she said and hanged up

That was Lavalee's voice but whose phone did she use? It's obviously not hers because it's an anonymous number.

I took my bag and connected my phone to the powerbank and placed it inside the small bag. I applied a little foundation and wore my earrings then went out.

I was a little startled when I saw Lavalee's tiger outside my door. Actually, it was seated on the middle of the hallway. I looked at Irene, who's room is across mine and she too looked confused.

The tiger stood and walked downstairs so we did too. I guess it wants us to follow. The tiger seemed groomed and had taken a bath too. All in all the tiger is screaming wealth and status even if it's just a little tiger cub.

When we got downstairs, the tiger cub ran to Lavalee's direction - or not? It stopped in front of Jace and sat

"Very good, Mnemosyne." Jace said and tapped the little tiger's head

"Aww Mne's shy. Did Jace's compliment make you shy?" Lavalee teased and carried the little tiger.

"Let's have breakfast." Chelsea said so we followed her to the Dining room.

"Ah Ms. Lavalee, Ms. Chelsea, Ms. Irene., Ms. Jess." Napatingin kami kay Caspian

"What? And please drop the Miss." Sabi ni Irene

"Kailangan rin ba namin mag-exam?" tanong niya

"Yeah. We're enrolled." Sabi naman ni Jace kaya parang pinagbagsakan ng langit at lupa yung tatlo; Ethan, Elijah at Caspian

"Why?" tanong niya at nag-iwasan ng tingin yung lima

"Lady Lavalee." Biglang lumapit yung mga body guards na pinadala ni Frost.

"Why?" Lavalee asked in a cold manner

"A letter arrived." The guard said and gave the letter to Lavalee

"Vedo." Lavalee said and the body guard left.

We stood up and went to the garage. I went to the car and as usual Caspian's there, ready to start the car. His phone suddenly rang.

"Hello, mahal. Ah oo may binabantayan ako eh." I heard him say

"Sige mamaya nalang ulit. Ihahatid ko pa si Miss Jess." He said and placed down his phone

"You know, you can go home already." I told him

"Hindi pwede, Jess. May tungkulin kaming dapat gampanan." He said
