Chapter 132
Cassie went to the restroom, and when she came out, the sky was dyed red by the sunset. She stood there, looking around.
It had been so long since she returned. She hadn’t really looked at this school carefully. This was the first hell in her last life. She had been pushed into the fountain, locked in the bathroom had her homework thrown away, and her drawer filled with bugs and garbage….
Those past events now feel like a fading dream. “Finally, I’m going to leave here.” Cassie took a deep breath and stretched
herself.
“Cassie.” Simon suddenly appeared from somewhere, which seems to spoil the mood deliberately.
Cassie looked at him and said, “How did you get in?” “I came back to the school to get my stuff,” Simon pushed his glasses up. “Congratulations.”
“Congratulations to you too, senior,” said Cassi like what you’ve seen,” said Simon.
Simon’s face turned pale. “Cassie, I know you understand that things are not
“I don’t care,” said Cassie calmly. “I will prove myself to you,” said Simon. But what he said made Cassie confused.
“Then, good luck with that,” said Cassie. Then she turned and left. Simon stood there, his hands clenched into fists. He thought, ‘I couldn’t believe that Cassie didn’t have a crush on me
I had also heard about Cassie recently. She had been unhappy since the camping incident, and had gone on a solo trip, and then spent a long time on a film set with Anne.
In short… she was clearly unhappy about my engagement with Betty.
The beauty of Cassie was something I had never seen in my life. I believed I had fallen deeply in love with Cassie. When I became powerful enough, I would definitely win her over!”
“Why do you look unhappy?” asked Heston. Cassie returned to the place where Anne and her family stayed, and Heston noticed right away that she was not in a good mood.
“I ran into Simon,” said Cassie.
“What?” Heston had also heard about Simon behavior, so there was no more appreciation for him, nothing but boredom. “What a jerk, he should never show up in front of my granddaughter!”
“Forget it, let’s go home, Louisa said she’s made a feast for me!” said Cassie cheerfully. “What about that young girl?” asked
Heston.
“Sheryl went home, she has something very important to do tonight,” replied Cassie. Ever since she mentioned that matter to Sheryl. Sheryl was completely preoccupied with it. She didn’t stay long in the headmaster’s office in the afternoon, and left school in a hurry to buy a drawing tablet for her art.
“We were talking about celebrating together,” said Heston. ” Maybe next time,” said Cassie.
“Did she buy a house?” asked Anne. “Larry’s friend found one that Sheryl and her grandma are very satisfied with,” replied Cassie. “That’s great” Anne nodded and said, “You’ve really gone the extra mile to help her.”
“As Grandpa says, the more kindness you give, the more good things you’ll receive.” said Cassie with a smile.
Heston also chuckled. “Oh, my girl has learned all my good stuff

The family returned home–in a warm and harmonious mood. Sure enough, Louisa had prepared many delicious food. And the chestnut cake was indeed indispensable. This time, it was even bigger.
“This must have been ordered by you, right? It smells so good!” Louisa said cheerfully to Cassie, “I couldn’t resist to take a bite. Which bakery is it from? Once you go to college, I’ll go and buy it for you regularly.”
“I’m not going to telling you-” Cassie also didn’t know which bakery it was from. But thinking about it, the cake must have been made by the chef from Marcus’s family. They’re so good at making chestnut cake.
This dinner was kind of the happiest one the Murphy family had in the past six months.
Around the same time, Cassie’s interview was on air. After it, Cassie became a hot topic on Twitter Trends because she’s the heir to the billionaire and got such a great scores in the SAT
Some people were extremely happy and proud for this Twitter topic, with representatives including Marcus, Eric, and Zayn.
Of course, some were furious about it. Representatives included Jennie’s mother, Betty, who knew she actually scored over 1,400 points, and those wealthy wives and socialites waiting to see Cassie’s downfall.
And certainly there’s Julia, who was overseas at this moment.
In the dimly room, the air was filled with the smelly smell of medicine.
Julia huddled on the sofa, half her face wrapped in gauze, obsessively holding her phone and using a secondary account to defame and insult Cassie online.
She went through all the made–up scandals about Cassie on the internet over these years. But her words were too harsh, most of the comments was blocked and deleted by the system as soon as it was posted.
“Cassie Murphy!” Julia was seething with anger and thought, ‘ I’m suffering here. And you’re back in the country, basking in the glory of being the top scorer in the SATs! I will never let you off the hook like this! When I come back, your life will truly be over!‘

After wrapping up the last thing on her high school checklist, Cassie found herself with a lot of free time. She had planned to invite Marcus to check out a gift. But Marcus had to go aboard for a month for some unknown reason.
Such business trips for the billionaire were nothing unusual. So, Cassie didn’t pay much attention to it. With Marcus away, she could fully focus on the story of Lunatic Asylum.
The game After School had such a huge fan group which consistently spend money on it that the team decided to launch a spin–off. Cassie contributed to some of the story. But most of it was created based on user demands.
Sheryl didn’t show up until two days after she went back home. Early in the morning, Cassie received from Sheryl the character designs she created for After School.
Cassie was stunned by the vivid colors and rich elements that never strayed from the dark style of the game. house and drove to Sheryl’s place immediately.
She left the

Sheryl’s hair was a mess, with heavy dark circles under her eyes. It was clear that she had been up for two days.“What brings you here?” Sheryl rubbed her eyes.
“Did you draw these all by yourself?” Cassie asked. “Yeah,” Sheryl nodded and said, “Aren’t they great?” Sheryl was never modest about her own drawings.

“They’re excellent,” Cassie stepped inside, “Can I take a look at your sketches?” Sheryl nodded and quickly fetched her sketches from her room.
After going through the sketches, Cassie didn’t hesitate at all and said, “Take a good rest for today, and staff from Celestial Realm Studios will contact you tomorrow. If all goes well, you’ll officially join the art production for their next game, Lunatic Asylum.”
