Matilda was absolutely furious with her. Her eyes always had a sharp gaze directed at her. She enjoyed irritating her even more.She wanted to tease her further. She fed Demi dessert."Demi, try this, it's delicious," she offered to the man while looking at Matilda. He immediately nodded in agreement."Yeah, it's really good," he replied."I told you, fresh and new ones are delicious.""Stop it, Maine!" Matilda slapped her hand, "you're insulting me!""Why? What did I do?" she feigned innocence."I'm right here, and you're feeding my boyfriend, have some shame!""What do you want? Should I be the one feeding him?" she teased."Shut up!" Matilda snapped at her, "I've been annoyed with you since earlier.""What do I care? Just leave then," she replied."Demi, please, get rid of that girl!" Matilda told the man."Why should I leave? This is our party? If anyone's leaving, it's you and your bald fiancé!" she retorted."Maine, just ignore her," Amethyst intervened."Someone needs to talk t

She never imagined that Demi would deceive her like that, so casually. It seemed deliberate, aimed at humiliating her in front of many people!"I won't allow them to get away with this. They will pay for humiliating me," she said angrily, sitting at the bar counter and sipping wine from her glass."Enough of that, Matilda," Art interjected. "We need to plan our revenge against those people, especially after what they did to you. They need to suffer forever honey!""I can't figure out how Demi found out about our plan; no one could have told him," she replied to Art. "Could it have been you?""Are you kidding? Why would I tell him? I'd benefit from it! Out of all the people you could suspect, you really think it's me?," the man replied indignantly."I thought it was just you and me who knew everything. We were the only ones talking about it during that time!" She held her head in her hands. "Then who could it be if not you?""We didn't have any helpers around during those days, and it'

Amethyst couldn't react when she mentioned Toby's name. The woman turned pale, unsure of what to do. Even Toby was frozen at the door.Sandro and Demi were also speechless. After a while, Amethyst burst into laughter."You guys are crazy, it was just a joke. You know how much I love Toby as a friend, you're so suspicious!" Amethyst laughed hysterically."I thought it was true!" Demi threw a pillow at her."No one believes each other in this group, we're just friends here. Toby is special to me because he's the only one who understands me completely. Come here, Toby," she called her friend.Toby chuckled and scratched his head, "You owe me for this, you know?""How's the site? Is everything fixed?" Sandro asked."Yeah, there was just a minor conflict among the workers, but it's all good now," Toby replied.They believed Amethyst's alibi, while she didn't. She knew what she said was true, but she felt embarrassed because Toby was there.She just watched them interact. Perhaps, they beli

The next day, she woke up late. She peeked into Demi's room, but he wasn't there. She went out of the room and when she got to the kitchen, there was a woman cleaning. The woman was startled when she saw her. "Who are you? You're a thief, aren't you?" the woman said, which surprised her. "Huh? What are you saying, that I'm a thief?" She frowned at what the woman said. "Where is my husband?" "Well miss, how would I know where your husband is? Do I look like I keep track of missing people?" the woman replied to her. "Marissa! Why are you--" an old woman came out from the dirty kitchen, "oh dear, senyorita, you're already awake." "Senyorita?" Marissa looked at her. "What are you thinking, child! That's Senyorito Demi's wife!" scolded the old woman. "Huh!" Marissa turned pale and approached her, "oh dear, senyorita, I'm so sorry.. I thought-- sorry." "It's okay," she smiled, "I'm not sensitive even if you called me a thief." "What?" the old woman exclaimed in surprise, "

"Please, let's talk, Demi," Matilda pleaded with Demi. "Isn't that Miss Matilda? Why did Sir marry someone else?" "He replaced her with someone much younger, but that woman's got a terrible attitude." "Good thing Sir swapped her out. Whenever she's here, we're always exhausted." "Yeah, she acts like she's the boss." Matilda could hear the whispers of the workers behind her. "We have nothing to talk about, Matilda!" Demi snapped. "No—no—Art and I are really separated now. You're the one I truly love!" Matilda insisted. "Huh! And you expect me to believe you're not trying to manipulate me? You haven't changed at all!" Demi retorted. "You!" Matilda pointed at her. "You're brainwashing him, making him angry at me so he'll end up with you!" "I have nothing to do with that. Is it my fault he prefers someone fresh and not someone used up?" Demi replied. This made Matilda even angrier, especially when the workers laughed. "You wretch! How dare you talk to me like that!
