Kyra and Abby ordered desserts. Madison was not interested in staying with them longer, so she excused herself. Three of them know each other from middle school, and there is no need to be polite.
"Why are you so quiet?" Kyra asked Abby as soon as Madison left. "You know that I don't like when you revert to your old behavior."
Abby shrugged. "I can't help it. When I'm with Madison and Aiden cos as a topic, I rember what she did to because of him."
Kyra patted Abby's shoulder. "That was long ti ago. You have two choices. Let go of it or get back at her."
"I want to see her suffer, but I don't know how." Abby admitted.
Kyra smiled. "Maybe you will see her suffer without doing anything."
"What do you an by that?"
Kyra paused and looked at Abby while thinking if she should tell her what she knows or not. She decided to speak. After all, she is not concerned that Abby will recklessly talk around. "I attended Jeffrey's birthday in March. Aiden was there. He brought a girl."
"Really?" Abby was interested in this information. She is aware that on these official gatherings which involve families Aiden never brought a girl with him. But…"Back in March? That is a long ti ago."
Kyra looked at Abby aningfully. "More recent thing… Rember ladie? She was in the area briefly and moved away just before we started high school."
Kyra saw that Abby shook her head indicating that she does not rember the girl, so Kyra continued: "I'm in touch with her. Anyway, ladie attended graduation ceremony few weeks ago. She was gushing about a Valedictorian speech which got posted on few sites, but it was removed quickly before I got a chance to see it. ladie told that a super-hot guy gave a speech where he continuously talked about his amazing fiancée. Can you guess who was the guy who gave that speech?"
Abby looked at Kyra unsure where she is going.
Kyra rolled her eyes at her clueless friend and opened on her phone site of Tesla University. She scrolled news which nad Aiden White as Valedictorian and showed it to Abby.
Abby gasped when she connected the dots. "Aiden? … Is engaged?"
Abby took so ti to compose herself and then looked at Kyra suspiciously. "And you are not telling this to Madison because…?"
Kyra shrugged. "Is it my duty to inform her about her prince charming? She is talking about him all the ti, full of herself, while being clueless. If she talks less and uses her head more, she would find out about this herself."
Kyra smiled maliciously. "It will be fun seeing her face when she realizes that he is committed to another girl. Don't you agree?"
Abby nodded. This might be a great chance to see Madison suffer.
Abby glanced at Kyra suspiciously again. "Why are you keeping tabs on Aiden?"
Kyra hesitated. "It's not for him. I'm staying inford about Whites."
"Are you still fantasizing about Jeffrey?" Abby looked at Kyra in disbelief. "You realize that it's his wedding in two weeks?"
"I know…" Kyra sighed. "And I'm not stupid like Madison to cause trouble without knowing what I'm doing. Few months ago, he was still single. At his birthday in March, Whites introduced him to a girl, and I could clearly see that he was absolutely not interested… later I found out that it was a case of an arranged marriage. And sotis between then and now, this woman showed up. My mom visited Whites few weeks back and she told that his parents approve of her, and they even canceled the marriage agreent he had previously." Kyra dejectedly poked her strawberry mouse cake and put it in her mouth.
"You are well inford." Abby observed.
"Of course, I am." Kyra smirked.
"What will you do?"
"What can I do? At this ti, I'm lacking information to make any aningful moves. Jeffrey is very good in keeping things private, and I can't find much about that woman or their relationship. I heard that they went to the club in Reno and so woman sched against Jeffrey's fiancée. Her family ended up bankrupt. Business and private funds, everything got destroyed and the scheming woman ended up in jail. Coincidence? I don't think so. This is how my Jeffrey acts." Kyra smiled for a second.
"That tells that I shouldn't do anything without a good plan. I need to find a way to get close to him, remove her, and not leave traces behind. In order to do that, I need to be patient. I'm sure I will get my chance eventually. I will go to the wedding, observe the situation and wish them all the best until death breaks them apart." Kyra's eyes flashed with malice for a mont before her expression relaxed and she spoke like this is nothing related to her: "After all, if I want to be future Madam of the White family, I can't be hasty, I can't allow my emotions to betray what I'm thinking, and I need to think well about any moves I make. I'm still young, and in no rush to take what is mine. Watching Madison now will give a good idea how Whites deal with soone who ddles in their relationships. However, if Madison is successful, we might end up being a family, I don't want to risk showing my intentions to her at this ti. As I said, I will observe and adjust based on that. I believe that is how future Mrs. Jeffrey White should behave." Kyra is confident that she has what it takes to stand by Jeffrey.
Abby listened to all this without breathing. "Why are you telling this?"
"Because I know that you will not betray … after all, not everyone knows what Madison did to you, and I was the one who saved you that night. If I didn't co in ti, you would not survive. Right? And besides , no one knows what those guys did to you… so far."
Abby nodded faintly. She understood that if she betrays Kyra, things that she is trying to forget will be revealed to everyone.
Kyra smiled and pointed at the plate in front of Abby. "Aren't you going to finish that?"
Abby looked at her strawberry shortcake and felt nauseated. "I'm full."
"Heh… don't be like that." Kyra patted Abby's shoulder. "Once I beco Madam White, you will be my right hand. I will take care of you and make sure no one hurts you."
Abby smiled sheepishly. She is not sure if Kyra wants to protect her, or just to keep her close by her side in order for Abby do Kyra's biddings. But whatever the case is, she can't allow Kyra to be unhappy with her.. Otherwise, her reputation and her life will be over.
