Chapter 255 - Ch. 255 Multiple Personalities

Mr. Zouch and his family have been living in New York for two years. As Kaylee wanted, Mr. Zouch established her in a music academy before finally getting into M university.

Fortunately, Mr. Zouch had contacted Rothbert and asked him to use the young man's connections to become a lecturer at the campus. He felt more at peace if there was someone to look after his daughter on campus.

Hades knew Kaylee wouldn't feel comfortable, knowing a bodyguard was guarding her for a total of twenty-four hours. Even though her current personality was Kaylee, she had a rebellious nature from birth.

Mr. Zouch didn't want to risk making his daughter want to rebel and run away to leave his wing. That's why he gave freedom to his daughter.

Kaylee was free to choose the study field she liked and choose the career she wanted.

Britney and her husband have made it a habit to call their daughter 'Kaylee' even though their daughter's name was Roxanne. They get used to it, but sometimes they miss her mischievous nature and their wild daughter's spirit.

One night, Britney couldn't sleep and decided to drink alone in the pantry. She was about to take a sip of her drink when she heard a voice from outside.

Thinking that an intruder had entered, Britney took a knife and walked soundlessly out of the kitchen.

She saw a human figure there strolling down the stairs and then walking towards the exit door. Looking at the figure and the height, isn't that figure her daughter?

Why is her daughter out at this time of night?

Feeling worried for her daughter, Britney quickly took her coat and followed her daughter from behind.

She kept a great distance because the streets were deserted. If her daughter looked back, the girl immediately knew that someone was following her.

They walked on until they entered the youth hangout area, which opened until three in the morning. It's not too quiet there because many young people come to drink, hang out, or karaoke until they don't have much energy left.

This made Britney confused and puzzled. If Roxy's personality were that of Kaylee, her daughter would never have come to this place.

Nevertheless, Britney followed quietly and sat some distance away as her daughter sat down at one of the round tables belonging to a bar. This table was in an open field with a broad canopy and heating lamp.

Visitors didn't have to worry about the chill because a large heating lamp was above their heads.

Britney sat quietly and watched what her daughter was doing. Her eyes widened as a waitress delivered an alcoholic drink to her daughter.

That's not Kaylee! Kaylee never drank beer, even though someone offered her. On the other hand, Roxy would secretly steal beer from the fridge even though she wasn't old enough.

Is… that girl Roxy?

Britney wanted to get up and approach her daughter, but… her heart was too cowardly to accept her daughter's harsh treatment, who still seemed to hate her.

"Roxy!"

Britney widened her eyes in surprise when she saw Gwendy… Wendy came up to her daughter and casually called her daughter Roxy??

"Have you adapted to this city?"

"I'm the expert at this thing. I adapt well. But really. The house makes me sick."

"Why?"

"I don't know. It's difficult to breathe there."

"So you always reach to me whenever you show up. I wonder why you show up at night rather than during the day. Wouldn't it be nice if you woke up during the day?"

"..." Roxy didn't answer as she raised her head to stare blankly at the heating lamp. "The dark suit me well. I preferred to come at night."

Hearing her daughter's pessimistic answer made Britney's heart wince. Did her daughter become like this because of her?

"Aren't you going to tell your parents?"

"About what?"

"About you having multiple personalities."

Britney covered her mouth with one hand hearing the words of her daughter's childhood friend.

Roxy has multiple personalities?

"Once they know, I would never show up. I preferred to be like this. My parents got the daughter they wanted, and I received my punishment by living in the darkness."

"Roxy,"

"Let's talk about something else." interrupted Roxy while gulping down her drink.

Britney got to her feet and turned to walk home with tears in her eyes.

Now everything makes sense. Her daughter woke up one morning with a completely different change of character. The child never argued and was quieter, although sometimes Kaylee brought joy to the house.

But there were times when Kaylee had a headache when she woke up and craved a fish soup that Roxy liked.

Roxy always ate that soup whenever she was sick or drunk, even though the girl was not that fancy toward the dish. At certain times, Roxy preferred to eat steak or pasta.

As for Kaylee… that kid preferred salads and other vegetables. The girl hated fish soup and would feel sick every time she smelled it.

Even though her personality has changed, but sometimes her craving that only Roxy has would appear when she woke up in the morning.

Kaylee couldn't draw, and ever since Roxy turned into Kaylee, the girl never touched her sketchbook and her hands looked stiff when she tried to draw something. But sometimes, the drawings on the pages of her sketchbook would add up subtly.

Sometimes the girl would turn out to be like Kaylee, other times like Roxy.

Britney and her husband were very confused by the erratic changes of their daughter. And now she gets it.

Roxy… has created her alter ego, who has the same personality as Kaylee.

That's why the girl thought of herself as Kaylee and only remembered the good things she wanted to remember.

What Pierre said was true. Roxy built a defensive wall to hide in and created something where only beautiful and good things were in the picture.

'Kaylee' was a girl filled with joy and peace while all darkness and gloom accumulated on Roxy.
