"Well, I…"
"Yo-yo, look! The famous Miss Chloe in high school!" At this moment, two sexy beauties in scarce clothes walked over and interrupted them.
Since they were wearing heavy make-up, Chloe couldn't tell who they were, but they should be the high school classmates considering what they said.
Marlene came over with her jaw raised proudly, sizing up Chloe and Lisa, her eyes full of disdain, "What a surprise! Six years passed and you haven't changed, still begging to be Miss Johnson's little follower, right?"
"Yeah, Lisa, what are you thinking? Do you have any ego?" Frieda mocked as well.
Insulted for no reason, Lisa felt overwhelmed by shame and rage, "What are you talking about? Stop being a bitch, okay!"
"You know we are telling the truth!" Marlene stepped forward, pointing at Lisa with her slender finger in a provoking way.
Chloe knitted her brows, grabbing her hand, "That's enough! Go away."
"Oh, right. Protect your puppy like you always did. Sorry, I shouldn't bully your pet." Marlene broke free from Chloe's grasp and rubbed her hand. That hurt! Fuck, she didn't expect Chloe was so strong.
Now Chloe finally recognized them.
Chloe and Lisa had been good friends since high school.
But one day, Chloe accidentally heard some people were gossiping about her and Lisa in the ladies' room. Back then, Lisa's father's business was a small success.
"Have you heard that? Lisa Field, she looks so proud recently. What should she brag about? If it weren't for her begging for Chloe's favor, how could her father ever got such a huge order?"
"She's just very good at using Chloe to get her way."
Hearing this, Chloe walked out, glancing coldly at them, Marlene and Frieda.
As a result, not long after, Marlene and Frieda were forced to have detention for smoking in school. Only Lisa saw it when they smoked, so they assumed it was Lisa who told on them.
In fact, Chloe did. She thought they could learn their lesson and behave themselves in the future. But it only got worse. Lisa was beaten up by Marlene's boyfriend after school.
Furious, Chloe wanted to avenge Lisa by hiring people to beat Marlene and Frieda. But Lisa begged her to just let it go because she couldn't get into any trouble.
So Chloe agreed reluctantly in the end.
But coming across them here today, Chloe knew they hadn't learned their lesson. And she was happy to finish what was left last time.
"Speaking of high school, you reminded me that a girl was recorded having sex with her boyfriend. And her sex tape was released on the Internet. Her name was so familiar, Mar..."
Chloe drew her voice deliberately, as if trying to recall that name, her smile cold and cruel, "Oh, pity. I can't remember. But you know what. I can find that video easily..."
She didn't finish her sentence, enjoying Marlene's expression.
Marlene's face was instantly pale. She looked at Chloe and her eyes were filled with horror.
With a sneer, Chloe took a step forward, staring at them, "I also remember that you threatened to destroy Lisa. See? My memory is really good."
Marlene gritted her teeth, retorting, "Don't think you can scare me. I know you are from the Johnson family. But so what? As far as I know, you have no chance to be the heir to the Johnson family."
She got a point. Only the heir would be the final winner.
Chloe was not so lucky. After all, everyone knew that Kevin would inherit everything.
But Marlene didn't know that Chloe had no interest in inheriting. She only wanted to protect the people she cared about.
"Marlene, let me be clear. I don't need inheritance to destroy you. Don't flatter yourself."
"Chloe, you are no better than us! Do you still remember you were called a slut for stealing someone's boyfriend? Now you pretend to be so innocent. You are just embarrassing yourself."
Oh no. Marlene's face changed after hearing this from Frieda. She had no idea who was involved.
"Well, enough, it's all in the past. We should grow up and move on, right?" Marlene stopped Frieda from continuing.
Frieda's eyes widened in surprise but she didn't say a word.
Chloe nudged Lisa who was absentminded, "What are you staring at? Let's go."
Lisa woke up from the trance. She had been a little distracted since they met Marlene and Frieda.
Chloe shook her head and left with Lisa without looking back.
But they passed by, Marlene parted her lips.
"Lisa, how about you? Do you have a good memory?" Marlene whispered like a creepy ghost.
Pausing for a moment, Lisa steadied herself, her heart beating fast.
"Mind your own business, Marlene. Or you will be in trouble." Chloe noticed Lisa's change. She held her tightly and threatened Marlene coldly.
Chloe and Lisa had walked for a while and finally, Marlene and Frieda were out of sight.
At this moment, Chloe stopped and looked into Lisa straightly.
"Lisa, are you hiding something from me?"
Sensing that Chloe got a little angry, Lisa was getting nervous, murmuring, "Chloe, I..."
What happened on earth? Lisa was acting weird and clearly, she was hiding something serious from Chloe. But they were supposed to be each other's best friends!
"We've been friends for over ten years, right? Of course, I respect your privacy. But I care about you. What are you hiding? Tell me!"
Lisa stammered for a long time but could not say anything. Biting her bottom lip, Lisa answered very vaguely.
"Chloe, I did this for a reason. You know how impulsive you can be."
Lisa knew if she really told Chloe, things might be out of control.
"So you just let them bully you like that? And now you are accusing me of being impulsive." Chloe got so angry that she trembled slightly, "If you can handle it yourself, how come they still insulted you just now?"
"Fine, you're right. I can handle nothing without you. Are you happy now?"
