Chapter 30 A Lousy Brother Tilda thought , Maybe tonight I'll have a nice dream ? The next day came . She didn't have a single nightmare . Tilda woke up feeling fresh and rested . She grabbed her phone and sent Una a quick text . While getting ready , her phone buzzed again . Thinking it was Una replying , she checked it . But to her surprise ... It was Jude . " I slept really well last night . Thanks . " Tilda texted back , " I didn't really do anything , though . " " " m Jude instantly sent another text , " Just having you around made the difference . She furrowed her brows a little , unsure how to respond . 76 % +10 Free Coins After thinking for a second , she replied , " Well , thanks to you , too . I didn't have any bad dreams either . " Tilda let out a quiet laugh when she saw the reply , " Glad to hear it . " She pictured Jude - with his usual cold , serious face - typing a smiley emoji on his phone . It feels unreal . Even people who seem untouchable and powerful also have feelings , she thought . Nobody is truly emotionless . With her backpack slung over her shoulder , Tilda got into her Porsche Cayenne and drove to Orica University . In her past life with the Jensons , she'd followed every family rule without question - keep a low profile , avoid trouble , never steal Kyla's spotlight . She'd been constantly scared of disappointing them . But this time , things were different . She was over that nonsense . Why should I ? I worked for everything I have - my money , my talent - and now I'm supposed to hide it all just for the sake of my so - called family . I have to tiptor around while worrying that Kyla might feel insecure . I have to force myself to play small and stay invisible just so no one notices me ? Just because I'm labeled an orphan " or a " nobody " doesn't mean I have to believe it . I / A O O 23:53 Thu , Sep 4 Chapter 30 A Lousy Brother How foolish ! Thinking about her old self made her want to yell at the girl she used to be . " Screw you ! " Her Porsche Cayenne pulled smoothly into a parking space near the university gates . She stepped out , wearing sunglasses and carrying her bag casually over one shoulder . 176 % 日 +10 Free Coins She had on skinny jeans that showed off her long legs , a crisp white t - shirt , a light brown windbreaker , and clean white sneakers . Her chin was up , face tilted toward the sun Every step radiated confidence . She looked so cool and stylish ! As she walked across campus , people couldn't help but notice her . " Whoa , she's stunning . " " When did Orica University get such a gorgeous girl ? " " Is she a senior? A freshman ? Or maybe a new professor ? " " I need her number . " Everyone around started whispering . Just as Kyla and Wade got out of the car, they caught sight of the scene . Hearing all the chatter nearby , they turned to see what the fuss was about . And the moment their eyes landed on her , they froze in place . " Wait ... is that Tilda ? " Kyla's chest tightened as if she'd been punched . Her hands clenched around her backpack straps . It didn't make sense . How could Tilda be glowing like that ? Back in college , Tilda had been practically invisible . Back when she first showed up at the Jenson Villa , Tilda was nervous , quiet , and didn't believe in herself at all . She couldn't even dress well . Kyla had never seen her as a rival - Tilda couldn't match her talent , background , or charm . 2/4 23:53 Thu , Sep 4 Chapter 30 A Lousy Brother 林 念 76 % 日 +10 Free Coins That girl was nothing more than an irritating relative . To stay the center of attention in the family , Kyla had no choice but to stir up that whole " trending topic " mess . It hadn't gone exactly as planned , but in the end , she'd gotten rid of Tilda without their parents suspecting a thing . Kyla had thought everything was finally under control . Since Tilda had cut ties with the Jensons on her own , getting back into the family would be nearly impossible . And if she ever did try to return , Kyla could easily step in , put on some tears , and tug at the family's heartstrings . There's no way they'd take Tilda back . But now , seeing her in person , Kyla's instincts screamed at her . Ever since that scandal went viral , Tilda had done a total 180 - and Kyla couldn't wrap her head around it . " It's her ... " Wade finally spoke . He couldn't quite describe what he was feeling . Tilda , which version of you is real ? Why the huge change ? It's like you've been reborn . Her face was the same , but everything else her attitude , her style , the way she carried herself - was totally different . She wasn't the shy , desperate - for - approval girl he remembered , the one who used to annoy him . Meanwhile ... Wade and Kyla were just getting dropped off at the university . As the car pulled away , something hit Wade - Tilda went to the same university as them . She had been home for over two weeks , and it had never once crossed his mind to offer her a ride . Part of it was to avoid upsetting Kyla . Another reason was that he simply didn't like Tilda . He didn't want her to be part of the family again , and he couldn't stand how weak and nervous she used to be . But ... Was it because he still felt guilty toward Tilda deep down ? Or maybe , now that Tilda had cut ties with their family and no longer posed a threat to Kyla , he could finally see things more clearly ?
