Chloe gave a faint smile. "You knew she had a flaw on her face she didn't want to show, yet you bought the same dress as her. What's your game?"
"I... I didn't..."
"Didn't? Why don't you ask your fiancé if he believes that?"
Jennifer was taken aback, only then remembering Jesse, who was by her side.
She nervously looked up at him. Her face, full of blemishes, suddenly came into Jesse's sight. His disgust and repulsion were obvious, and he involuntarily moved back a bit.
She quickly covered her face with her hand.
"I... I just wanted to get closer to Katie. What's wrong with wearing the same clothes?"
"Closer? Then why did you just stop her from leaving, exposing her scars and humiliating her in public? Ms. Higgins, think before you talk, or you'll be hurting your own dignity."
There were murmurs from the crowd. They had all seen Jennifer pushing Katie to show her forehead scar earlier. To say it was humiliating wasn't an exaggeration.
"Katie was born with a bright red birthmark on her forehead, and she's been low-key all these years. But... I thought it was awkward because they wore the same clothes. Turns out it was all planned."
"That's too much. Seeing how dolled up she is today, she clearly wanted to be the center of attention. And she even used her own sister as a backdrop. She has the man, yet she still needs to feel superior by comparing herself to a 'loser'. That's low."
"So she retaliated by exposing other people's scars after being exposed, huh?"
"Haha..."
Jennifer's face turned very ugly at the side.
Chloe sneered, "Why don't you look in the mirror and see what you look like before thinking about exposing other people's scars."
Chloe then turned to Wendy standing aside, and said with a smile, "Ms. Alonso, as it turns out, when a man cheats, it's not the one being cheated on who's wrong. He doesn't know better and can't tell who comes later, let alone realize he's been duped. But well, that's just how mistresses and cheating men are."
"Yeah, isn't this just how mistresses and cheating men are?"
"No, no, no, that's not the point! The point is, did she just say... Ms. Alonso thinks it's the fault of the one being cheated on when a man cheats?"
"Oh my god, I heard it too! It completely overturns my values! Cheated on by a man, the mistress being her own sister, and somehow, it's her own fault? How does that work?"
"I'm learning something new too! So Ms. Alonso's values are so... incomprehensible."
The opinions and gossip around Wendy made her face turn extremely ugly.
"It's unbelievable. This might be the most absurd thing I've ever heard. So in this world, are irresponsible men and mistresses the epitome of true love?"
"Haha, no wonder Ms. Alonso would think like this, I heard her mom was..."
"Hey, hey, don't blabber."
A lady couldn't help but wanted to say something but was promptly stopped by the woman next to her. Her eyes and hushed voice were full of warning.
The lady frowned but didn't continue.
Chloe slightly raised her eyebrows, her gaze passing over the lady across from her and then carefully looking over Wendy.
