Chapter 2592Chapter 2592
The very thought of all the strangers who would whisper and point about how plain she looked next to
novelbinBalfour twisted her guts like a knife.
“Oh Victoria, please, I’m begging you. This whole mess is my fault, let me just see that post, will you?
The thing about Balfour, I don’t really know him that well. I just… I just…”
Mara trailed off, unable to continue her fabrication, because she truly liked Balfour. Saying she hated
him was a trio of words that just wouldn’t come out.
“Just what? Just that you don’t know Balfour and he doesn’t know you? I don’t know when you started
falling for him, but let me tell you. There’s a whole line of girls crushing on him, and you’re not the first
and certainly not the most special. So don’t worry, this post will blow over soon. Besides, it’s not like
they caught your face in the shot. No one at our school knows you, so what’s the big deal? You’re just
going to have to deal with a little heartache, that’s all.
Since Mara showed no signs of wanting to apologize, there was no reason for Victoria to keep
indulging her.
“Argh! What do you want me to do? You’ve always had the upper hand in everything, so why do you
have to deny me the right to like him too? Is it just because you’re prettier and more accomplished than
me?” Mara shouted.
Victoria stopped in her tracks, ready to leave, and turned around with an incredulous stare.
“What are you talking about? Isn’t it because you lied, which got me in trouble with Dad? You haven’t
even hinted at an apology, so isn’t that why I’m punishing you?”Mara clenched her teeth and said, “I did nothing wrong, so why should I apologize to you? If I have to
apologize, then you’ve got a lot more to apologize for over the years.”
Victoria actually found it somewhat amusing.
What was Mara thinking?
When had she ever wronged Mara?
“Alright, let’s set today’s incident aside and hash this out properly. Who owes whom? Let’s clear the air
between us. Tell me, where have I wronged you?”Mara’s smile was cold. “Aren’t you complaining right now? You don’t want to take care of me, but when
have I ever wanted to enjoy your care?”
