Nicole rested her elbows on the coffee table, cupped her face with both hands, and asked Chloe the question with a tilt of her head.
One second...
Two seconds...
Three seconds...
There was no answer from Chloe, so she acquiesced to it.
Nicole smiled knowingly.
Having her innermost thoughts exposed, Chloe's calm and emotionless eyes finally carried a hint of annoyance.
"I just can’t stand seeing you treating others like a side dish. Do you think it's very fulfilling?"
"What?"
Chloe’s words were harsh to hear.
"Am I wrong? Second Young Master Carter has feelings for you, but you just keep leading him on. Is that not treating him like a side dish?" Chloe questioned Nicole bluntly.
Yvette could not help but speak up. "When did you ever see Nicole leading Ian on? What do you know about our relationship anyway?"
Chloe looked embarrassed, but she still refused to back down.
"Just because you're close friends, it’s fine for Ms. Stanton to play with his feelings without any guilt?"
Nicole’s face sank slightly.
Her good temper and patience were worn out.
"Play with his feelings?"
Nicole sneered. "Ms. Snyder, which eye of yours saw m e toying with Ian? This has all been Ian's one-sided wishful thinking."
'I’m exhausted dealing with him... How did I become a f *ckgirl who toys around with other people’s feelings?! She's treating me like I'm a scumbag? Unbelievable! How ridiculous!’ Nicole thought.
Chloe clenched her teeth. Her face was taut, and her aura was oppressive.
"If you don't like him, you should just cut off all his hopes. Isn't leading him on and still being so friendly with him toying with his feelings?"
If this were anyone else, they would have freaked out.
However, Nicole just snorted lightly.
"Ms. Snyder, do you think that I must cut off all ties with Ian to reject him?"
