"Chelsea, you saw what the people here said. Since you've already reached this point, shouldn't you leave obediently?" Abbie looked at me arrogantly.
A fight with chips. I lost without a fight.
I stood up and looked at everyone present with a smile.
"Why are you standing up? Sit down!" Sienna held my hand and stopped me in a low voice.
Looking sideways at her, I couldn't hide the anxiety on my face. Look, even my best friend thought I was leaving, and I just wanted to stand up.
Jonah comforted Sienna and told her that he would be fine. But obviously, Sienna did not believe his words at all. He shook off the hand on his shoulder.
Then Sienna said loudly, "Jonah, let me tell you! Today, Abbie attacked Chelsea everywhere as soon as she came here. You know what kind of relationship Chelsea has with me. If you just can't accept my friend, then forget it, but you are not like that. You forced your friend to treat me as a good sister. What do you mean?" "And you women!" Sienna pointed at the other women who had just said that to him, and said in a cold voice, "Don't you know what kind of women you are? Others can't smell your clothes and rouge, but I can. They are all cheap things. What are you pulling at?"
The private room was unusually quiet, and only the sound of breathing could be heard.
But this situation only lasted for a few seconds. The women who were told by Sienna held the man beside them and complained tearfully, accusing Sienna and I of not giving them face and embarrassing them.
Seeing this, I just wanted to laugh. In their eyes, they were the only ones who cared about their reputation, but I was nothing.
Without giving Sienna a chance to speak, I said to them, "Shame is your own. You can't lose face just because you want to. It's your biggest failure if you can't find your own position."
"And Abbie, you've been dissatisfied with me since we first met. Wasn't it all because of Harrison? Harrison is right here right now. If you can convince him to let me get out, then I'll leave without a word and never show up again. If I can't, then I'll have to trouble you to behave yourself." I chuckled.
Abbie didn't expect me to suddenly become so strong, and was momentarily stunned.
I sat back in my chair and looked up at Sienna with a smile. "Sit down quickly. Are you not going to eat?"
Sienna was stunned, then sat down with a silly smile and put my right hand in her palm.
Not long after they sat down, a waiter came to serve the dishes. It seemed that they often came here to eat, so they didn't need to order at all. The restaurant was directly prepared to serve the dishes.
More than a dozen people basically didn't touch the chopsticks, and they didn't know whether they were reserved or not. Anyway, Sienna and I were like the unpleasant food just now. We ate happily. Fortunately, the dishes in this restaurant were delicious, which matched Sienna's taste.
When I really couldn't eat anymore, I put down my chopsticks and leaned against the back of the chair comfortably.
"Are you full?" Harrison's voice rang out.
Harrison, who was as quiet as a mute for nearly half an hour, finally opened his mouth to speak. "Should I rejoice that my first sentence was told to me?"
But in fact, I pretended not to hear it and simply closed my eyes to rest. The previous big battle had already consumed all my energy. Now I just wanted to have a peaceful meal, have a good rest, and then leave here.
"Did you really not hear me or did you pretend that you didn't hear me?"
I felt that as he spoke in my ear, hot air kept blowing into my ears, making my heart itch. Finally, I couldn't help but open my eyes. "Is there any difference?"
"Drink this glass of water." He put it in front of me.
I didn't know what to say. I looked at him speechlessly and then looked down at the cup in his hand. The water inside was still steaming.
I looked up and saw Abbie, who was gritting her teeth as she looked at me. It was obvious that she wanted nothing more than to eat me alive. I thought helplessly, "Is this why she put all the blame on me?"
"You don't want to eat anymore?" I asked after drinking the water.
He replied softly, "I'm not hungry. I came here for you."
