“This guy looks like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, doing such down-and-dirty deeds!”
“He seems cold as ice and fierce as a bear. He's definitely got a violent streak! I’d like to see who’s brave enough to marry him!”
“Violent streak? Even if he were a murderer, there’d still be women lining up to marry him! Money matters after all!”
“Disgusting! If I were the woman he hit, I’d never let him go!”
“Who’s the woman he hit anyway? Anyone knows her? She seems pretty from the side!”
......
After her shower, Violette popped a folic acid pill and then laid down in bed.
Having had a nap in the afternoon, she wasn’t sleepy at all now. She picked up her cell phone and saw a notification. It was from her college group chat.
She opened the chat and saw a heated discussion.
Student A said, “That woman’s profile looks like Odette!”
Student B replied, “Even though she looks like Odette, there’s no way it’s actually her! Odette wouldn’t allow anyone to push her around!”
Student C said, “If I remember correctly, Odette’s husband and Elijah are friends. There’s no way Elijah would hit Odette!”
Student D said, “Odette! Come check out the gossip! A woman who looks a lot like you got hit by Elijah!”
Violette stared at the messages, confused. She scrolled up the chat and found a picture.
She recognized Elijah at a glance. She zoomed in on the picture and saw the woman who was hit. If she hadn’t seen Odette today, she might have thought, like the others, that the woman just bore a resemblance to her.
