Chapter 1174 Looking Down on Marie
Lynette flicked her long hair and took a sip of coffee after turning away.
“I was too insecure back then, I always trailed behind you and never had the courage to try. I’ve come to realize something -everyone has to get exposed to new things.
“Look at the beauty salon I’ve dreamt of opening for the longest time. That’s how I started it. Now, all of Hawford’s ladies come to me for fillers and anti–aging
treatments.
“If you’re interested, you can come and visit, too. I can do your nose for you.”
When Lynette laughed, her facial expression was indescribably strange. It was
probably because she just had an injection.
She quickly covered her eyes. “I can’t laugh. Who knows how many wrinkles I’ll have with this smile alone? I sure do envy your face. You’re so fair and young. How do you
even maintain it, Marie?”
“It’s probably because I’ve always been kept indoors and rarely went out.” Marie
didn’t mention her soul entering the formation.
Lynette seemed quite annoyed at the mention of it. “It’s all because of Shane! How
could he be so despicable?
“You’re to blame as well. Tons of men liked you back then, and you just had to fall for
him, of all people. I’m glad you’ve moved on.
“Do you know how I thought you’d never get better again when I went to see you a
few years back? You looked frighteningly awful-”
At this point, she quickly stopped herself as she realized she shouldn’t be saying all
this. “Marie, that’s not what I meant. I’m just worried about you.”
Marie lowered her eyes as she sipped her tea gracefully. “It’s okay. I was indeed
of opportunities for us to meet.”
