She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 259

Chapter 259: Psychological Attack

Peyton's gloating eyes were so piercing that Kate wanted to go up and ask if she deliberately got her drunk. Unfortunately, all of this became unnecessary when she saw Graeme's cold face.

Watching the two figures walk further away, Kate couldn't help but cry. A crystal clear tear fell from her thick lashes onto her small face.

Finally, it disappeared into her collar and dampened a small patch of fabric with uneven colors. Other passing students looked at her curiously and heard someone whispering behind her back.

But this time they weren't as reckless as before because Kate had caused trouble in Timothy's class before. Her fierce appearance when kicking Timothy scared many people.

Timothy hesitantly walked over from the other side of the hallway, and from a distance, he saw Kate sitting in a chair, crying inconsolably. She was in stark contrast to the couple who had left, looking like a picture-perfect pair.

He couldn't help but glance at the box of Italian artisanal chocolates that he had bought with the money he had saved. She probably wouldn't care about that now.

Listening to her crying and seeing her swollen eyes, Timothy was filled with guilt. He remembered that night he almost ruined Kate and felt sorry for it.

As Kate sobbed, she didn't notice the approaching figure, and when she did, she impatiently yelled at him, "Get lost!"

Timothy felt his leg still aching from her kick. Bearing the pain, he stuttered, "Kate, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it that night. These chocolates are for you. I hope you'll stop crying."

Hearing his apology, Kate finally felt some relief, and her eyes lit up as they landed on the chocolates. "These are Truffle Chocolates from the top Italian brand Venchi!"

Timothy shyly nodded, surprised that Kate could identify the chocolates from their packaging. However, being from a wealthy family, she must have tasted a lot of good things, so these chocolates might be nothing special to her.

He was about to withdraw his hand when Kate suddenly took the box. "Wait... You said you wanted to treat me to chocolates, right? Even though these were given to me because Peyton didn't want them, I'm in a bad mood now. So, I want to eat something sweet to make myself feel better, and you can save some face by sharing these with me."

Timothy was not part of their class, and his knowledge of Kate mostly came from Peyton's descriptions. According to Peyton, Kate was someone who used connections to enter college and had looks but no talent. For him, she was just another privileged person who had bypassed the rules.

Timothy, someone who had worked hard and come from a humble background, particularly disliked people who bypassed the rules. Why should they be allowed to reap the rewards without putting in the effort?

Kate, with tears still in her eyes, reached for the chocolates. She carefully unwrapped the candy coating and placed one in her mouth. The sweet flavor made her feel better, and her crying subsided. She used her sleeve to wipe away the remaining tears and spoke with a teary voice.
