watch your neck before eat bone

[Chapter 126]

It took a lot of courage for Julie to speak up.

During the past years when Veronica was with David, Julie had hidden her feelings and only admired David in secret.

Time had etched these habits deep into her soul, and old habits died hard.

And now she was trying to bite off more than she could chew.

Sure, she was aware she was naive, but she wanted nothing more but to best Veronica.

The sense of helplessness she felt, knowing that Veronica was behind everything yet being unable to make Veronica pay, gnawed at her.

Veronica was an expert in pulling David's strings.

Why couldn't she do the same? Especially now, she had the upper hand.

She was, after all, carrying David's child.

But when Julie finally spoke up, David met her words with a heavy silence.
