Chapter 209
“If you mind, can’t I just apologize to you? If you have any dissatisfaction, why don’t you tell me? What does it mean for you to have your best friend here making snide remarks?” Annalise cried with a sense of injustice, wiping her tears and sobbing, “I really didn’t expect this. It was just an accident that I mistakenly drank someone else’s water. Why would someone be so malicious towards a girl? What does it even mean by ‘indirectly kissing‘? Kaleb and I are just good friends; it’s not as dirty as you all think.”
The rest of the people in the exhibition hall gathered around. All eyes were focused on us. Giana was dumbfounded and too angry to speak. In this way, she had actually become a malicious green tea, maliciously bullying an innocent girl? Giana was almost breathless and could no longer find the appropriate words to refute.
At that moment, Giana’s only thought was to clear my name. She didn’t care about offending Kaleb, but she knew
I still loved this scumbag and definitely didn’t want to leave a bad impression in his mind.
“My own dissatisfaction has nothing to do with Katrina,” Giana exclaimed angrily. “Annalise, stop blaming everything on Katrina.”
Annalise was even more aggrieved, wiping away tears and pointing to the people outside the field, “You let everyone come and judge, is there anyone else who bullies people like you do?”
Giana and I were both girls with very thin skin. Being introverted by nature, for us, it was like a social death. A girl drank someone else’s water by mistake, which in the eyes of others was a trivial matter, as small as sesame seeds or mung beans. Giana and I were both at fault, as we caused damage to the other party’s reputation by spreading rumors and gossip. At this moment, any explanation was pale.
Kaleb threw the water bottle into the trash can, with a cold face, and turned around and left without saying a word. Reilly hurriedly followed. Annalise wiped away her tears and, unable to cry anymore, ran after Kaleb. I watched as Kaleb stormed off in anger, my heart racing and my hands and feet turning icy cold. A wave of bitterness surged up from the depths of my heart, and my eyes became moist. The onlookers also gradually dispersed. The presence of the male colleague was particularly awkward, and he felt helpless, so he could only continue to be busy.
Giana walked up to me with a guilty expression and apologetically said with a downcast look, “I’m sorry, Katrina, I didn’t expect it to turn out this way.”
