Chapter 142: Pinned against the wall
Layla went to the restroom with Orabela and Kylie. As she began opening her overcoat, Orabela angrily asked, "Why did you intervene in my matter? Do you think I’m a beggar who will accept your money?"
"I thought you wanted to apologize to me yesterday," Layla said as she lowered her hands from the button of her overcoat. "Seems like you’ve not learned your lesson yet," she added.
Kylie enjoyed the scene between them as she got more gossip material.
"Can you go out, Kylie?" Layla urged.
"Huh? Why?" Kylie got confused.
"I don’t want you to gossip behind my back. So, leave since I’ve something important to talk about with Orabela," Layla stated. Kylie nodded and dashed out of the washroom, feeling annoyed.
"I get it that you are the queen now. You don’t have to humiliate me," Orabela stated.
"Come home tomorrow in the evening," Layla said. "Also, you better change your attitude. Your apology wasn’t sincere in my eyes. I know how mean you can be; how happy you feel seeing me in trouble. Your mother made the wrong choices all her life, I hope you won’t do that and think for your better future."
As Layla turned to leave after giving her advice, Orabela stopped her.
