Jeremy looked at Claia deeply. Claia also met Jeremy's gaze.

"What do you mean?" he asked. "Don't you like me?"

"Forget about that. I don't like you. Hahaha. Do you think I can't lie too?" she asked.

Claia originally wanted to do whatever she pleased in her current life. But she changed her mind when she heard Jeremy tell about Diora, starting from her favorite food, which way she usually takes to go to class at school, and many more. Especially when they studied together.

“The first reason, of course, is because I consider you unreal. I'm sure I'm still in the dream. Maybe this is a very long dream. Maybe I was expecting too much of a boy who cared about me that those expectations shaped you, Jeremy. And you say you love Diora. It is a form of not trusting others. All forms of attention are lies. I can't trust anyone here. And the last reason is that I don't want to fall deeper if one day I wake up in my real body. Do you know? Maybe I'm in a coma right now."

“...”

Claia waited for Jeremy's response. What took you so long? The girl became embarrassed and continued to stare at Jeremy. Finally, Claia looked the other way. The people around them were watching them.

"I've never run out of words like this before," said Jeremy.

"Are you telling me to stay away from you?" he asked.

Claia nodded. "I don't want us to get any closer."

“Okay,” Jeremy answered finally.

“You don't have to worry about living your life as Diora because I will protect you silently. I mean without you knowing. I will bring all this because I respect you. Oh yes, I'm also sorry about that time I broke down the toilet door at school to make you faint," said Jeremy. "See you."

After saying that without waiting for Claia's response, he stepped past Claia. Claia glanced back at Jeremy's wide back.

"If you do that, I'll like you even more. Cheats,” Claia whispered.

Claia was no longer in the mood for sightseeing so she decided to go home. At home, she approaches Ira and offers to help. Currently, Ira is cleaning luxury goods.

"Eh? Miss want to help me?" asked Ira surprised.

Claia nodded enthusiastically. "I can do it anyway."

"But miss, if you help me, madam will be angry," said Ira.

"Mama can't possibly scold me, I did a good thing right?" she asked. "Never mind. Hurry sis, tell me what I have to help."

"No miss. I'm really happy for you to change but not like this. There are three maids here so you don't have to do anything. You can relax in your room. I'll bring you some snacks."

"No!" Claia clenched her fists tightly. "I don't like studying. At least I wanted to show my mom this one change so she wouldn't be so mad that I didn't study."

In the memories that came to mind, Diora barely did any homework. Her daily life is only filled with studying, relaxing, and sports. Never once did she help Ira and her two other maids with work. While still in her original body, Claia always helped her parents. It has become a routine. If she doesn't help her parents, Claia feels something is missing.

"But miss..."

"Quickly tell me what to do!"

"Cleaning the swimming pool miss," answered another maid. "Miss can rest whenever you want if you do that."

"Hey, isn't that too much?"

"Okay. I'll be there now!"

Their lady looked happy and headed straight to the swimming pool.

Ira feels that she can't just let Diora go. She also left her job to follow Diora. The lady thought she had no experience in cleaning swimming pools so she would tell her how to do it. However, after seeing her, she did not immediately approach the lady who had entered the pond and was cleaning it. The water slowly recedes. Claia picked up a brush.

"Miss," Ira called half shouting. Claia turned her head as Ira walked along the edge of the pool toward her.

"What is it?" she asked.

"Miss doesn't need to do this."

"Don't underestimate me, Sis! After this, I'll clean up all of your bedrooms!" Claia snapped.

"What?" asked Ira surprised.

"I mean, all the bedrooms in this house. You don't have to go overboard like that. This is normal," Claia replied.

And Claia did it after cleaning the swimming pool, she went into all the rooms including the maids' room to clean it. Ira still couldn't believe what she was seeing. Especially her two friends. They couldn't believe it anymore. They went so far as to ask each other whether their current mistress was real. Their mistress who was often violently angry?

What Diora did today was reported to Ethelyn by Ira and two of her friends. The relationship between Diora and her three assistants is getting closer. They felt that their lady didn't treat them like a maid, but rather like a friend. Often whenever they were about to do their job, Diora took over. Ethelyn was silent with a look of shock on her face. She did not believe the words of these aides. Diora couldn't have gotten that far. However, the happy smiles on the faces of these acolytes made him tick.

"Diora has indeed changed and I already know about her doing some of the housework, but this time you guys are exaggerating. Is it true that she cleaned your room?" she asked.

The three maids nodded. At first, they didn't want to admit it to Ethelyn. Because they could have been fired. , Ethelyn didn't accept that Diora repeatedly helped them with their work. However, if Diora told her mother about what she did today, they could be seen as hiding it and Ethelyn would be even more angry and think they had made a mistake by using their child. Besides, their real goal was to have Ethelyn warn Diora not to work so hard again.

"Madam, Miss has completely changed now. Please don't get angry at her anymore. Just get angry with us. Take out your madness on Miss on us," said Ira.

"Go!" drove Ethelyn.

In her room, Claia, who was just about to sleep, received repeated calls from Joanna and Sienna. Claia couldn't take it anymore so she picked it up. Joana reports that Jethro had an accident due to a motorcycle race with his enemy and is now being treated in the hospital.

"Accident?" thought Claia.

"That's...none of my business," Claia thought. "I've broken up with him so we don't have any relationship anymore. And I'm not Diora."

After dealing with Joana and Sienna, Claia gets a call from the Jethro family. Jethro was eager to meet with him to discuss a very important matter. Because of its importance, this matter must be discussed by the two of them without anyone knowing. Claia told her mother that Jethro had an accident and she asked to be taken to see him. If it weren't for something so important, Claia would never want to see Jethro again.

Arriving at the hospital, Claia was finally able to be alone with Jethro. Ethelyn also began to hate Jethro since the change in her daughter.

"Diora, I have to confess to you," said Jethro.

"It turns out you're okay huh? You can even sit up," said Claia.

Jethro took off his blanket and then showed his wound to Claia. Claia immediately got goosebumps.

"Very well. Cover again!" Claia snapped.

Jethro pulled the covers back again.

"What do you want to talk about?" she asked. "I do not have much time. Say it briefly, concisely, and clearly!” Claia ordered.

"So you see, actually, I already know about your relationship with the boys behind me, with Noah, Linus, and them."

However, Diora's reaction was not surprising at all. Jethro felt strange. Shouldn't his girlfriend be surprised? Specifically, his ex-girlfriend. He still considers Diora as his girlfriend.

"Just that?" she asked.

"Diora, you are not surprised?" asked Jethro "I've known this for a long time and I've kept quiet all along."

"Why are you silent?"

"Of course because I don't want to lose you or hurt you," replied Jethro.

"So…"

"I finished racing with Ezra. He's also your affair, right? I've beaten Noah, Linus, and your other mistresses until I'm black and blue see? I hear you traumatized boys, I think it's because of them so I beat them up so they don't dare to come near you anymore ."

Claia nodded. “Why did you go that far, Jethro? I didn't ask for it at all. I don't understand love either. I'm so sick of you. Feel it! Maybe this is the result of you hurting them . I will also get karma for all the evil I did to them."

"Why do you say that Diora!" shouted Jethro.

After saying that, Claia left Jethro. Jethro immediately pulled Diora's hand but Claia immediately pulled her hand away. Jethro shouted for Diora but the girl kept walking away from him until she disappeared behind the door. Jethro feels betrayed. He had never felt this kind of pain in his heart before.

"Diora, you will be alone, just like me. All your friends will leave you," Claia thought. "That's my revenge on you."
