"Miss Starling, where are you right now?" Vicky asked with a frown.

"I'm at Neon... Club. Come here right away... I'll be... waiting for you."

"Miss Starling..."

Vicky wanted to say something else, but Aurora suddenly hung up the phone. Vicky called her again, but she did not

pick up this time.

Without any other options, Vicky changed out of her pajamas and went to Neon Club to look for Aurora.

In a corner of the Neon Club, Aurora was sitting slumped against the sofa, and in front of her was a mess of empty

bottles.

Vicky walked over to her and asked, "Miss Starling, are you okay?"

At the sound of Vicky's voice, Aurora's eyelashes fluttered before slowly opening her eyes. She must have drunk

quite a lot because her eyes were red and unfocused.

"Vic... ky... you came!" She beamed a rarely-seen drunken smile at Vicky. "I didn't... expect you... to really come!"

Vicky sighed helplessly at the hopelessly drunk Aurora.

"Miss Starling, you're drunk. Let me send you home."

"Miss Starling?" A hint of puzzlement flashed across her eyes. "Why do you call me that when I call you by your

name? You should just call me... Aurora instead."

Vicky knew it would be stupid of her if she was to reason with Aurora now, so she did not explain to her but instead

said, "Let's go home."

Aurora stared straight at her with wide-open eyes.

"Why won't you call me by my name? Is it because... you hate me too?"

"You're drunk. It isn't safe for you to be here. Please let me send me home," said Vicky patiently.

"But you won't... even call me... by my name..."

Vicky did not understand why Aurora was so hung up about that. In the end, she gave in.

"Aurora, let me send you home."

Aurora shook her head. "No, I won't go back. I don't wanna go back.... I don't wanna go back to that cold, harsh

house. If

I go back... they'll only force me to... I... no..."

Her eyes began to brim with tears.

"All through my life, I’ve done everything they've asked of me ... I tried so hard to be the perfect daughter they

want... and yet... they won't even give me a little bit of freedom..."

Aurora must have been bottling that inside of her for a long time. It was as if a floodgate had opened inside of her,

and Vicky did not need to prompt her to continue.

"They didn't allow me to make friends with anyone who was of no use to them when I was young... nor did they

allow me to talk to anyone who had a lower status than me... I could only make friends with those in higher places

or those who are of use to them...

"But little did they know... those people looked down on me and my family. I wanted to join them, but they treated

me like a slave... asking me to do this and do that every time... Later, the Starling family became more powerful,

and those who previously looked down on me started to suck up to me ... but I knew they only did that to get on the

good side of... my family.

"They'll pretend to be nice to my face, but as soon as my back is turned, they'll start gossiping about me... and

making up lies to undermine me... Growing up, I have never ever had a true friend... I know... I know that being

born into a family such as mine has its price to pay but... but..."

She suddenly looked at Vicky. Her eyes lost their emptiness and in its place were burning anger.

"But how could they destroy the last of what little dream I have? Just how bad do they want to make me into a

puppet who has no feelings?"
