"Draco, wait for me!" In her high heels, Mandy pursued him.
She looked incredibly humiliated as she cried in the chilly night wind, ruining her mascara and leaving tears to run down her cheeks into two black streaks.
Mandy never expected she would be in this situation just a day ago. She had high self-esteem. But, her confidence had significantly eroded as a result of love.
Neither did Draco show mercy, nor did he turn around.
In fact, he was well aware that Mandy was not a bad person. She was just too self-willed. When it pertained to people and things she disliked, she had a habit of attributing all faults to others. She was a proud woman who believed she would never be wrong.
He was determined to teach her a lesson this time!
Mandy became increasingly tense as she watched him walk more hurriedly. She didn't anticipate that Brenna's approach would not only fail but that this time Draco would get even angrier with her because of the mistake.
It was only a matter of seconds until the green light turned red when she noticed that he was about to cross the road. Despite her best efforts, she couldn't catch up with him because she inadvertently stuck her high-heeled shoe inside the sewer's lid.
Draco hesitated when he heard a faint cry behind him but eventually decided against turning around. Mandy's erratic personality and wealthy family
background had affected her design career greatly and not in the good way. She would never mature or stray from the right path if she couldn't get through these challenges.
Mandy covered her face as she sobbed vehemently. Without a doubt, she didn't expect that she would have to suffer so greatly for a mistake.
"Mandy, stop crying." Brenna's voice came from behind. "Look at yourself. Now come back with me."
Brenna, who was quite concerned, decided to follow Mandy outside when she saw her pursuing Draco.
However, Brenna didn't appear to be doing well after being lectured by her husband. "Don't mind the shoes. Just throw them away and I'll give you better ones later."
"Mrs. Olson, I..." Mandy was so confused when she saw Brenna help her up that she was unsure of what to do. She'd just implicated her.
"Don't say anything. I'll take you back." Brenna was so patient with Mandy. All the guests present were distinguished people who would not make a fuss over such a trivial matter. Even so, as a diplomat, Ewing was slightly embarrassed.
