Hazel wanted to applaud at her act. Rene was more cunning than she had thought! She knew that if she went against her and rejected her then others would take her as heartless and rude. But if she would accept Rene then Amelia and Rene would be great while she would be labelled as a pampered and selfish girl who could only think about her benefit.
She was standing on a thin ice sheet again. She had to accept that Amelia was too old and experienced in this game while she was just a new player who did not even know the rules.
She could see in the eyes of Rene, that prideful smirk of winning the game. Hazel clenched her hands into a fist. She would not give up easily this time.
