Chapter 321
Chapter 321
The invitation card not only listed the usual time and place, but also had an extra name written in bold, capital letters: “T.” And at the bottom, there was Amy’s own handwritten signature.
Lydia thought, ‘Wait, Emily is Tato? She was personally invited by Amy?’ Although she was usually such a good actress, she couldn’t keep her composure this time-her face changed instantly.
The people behind her, still clueless, craned their necks to get a better look. One of them muttered, “I wanna see that invitation for myself.”
Before the person could finish, Lydia snapped the invitation shut and instinctively hid it behind her back.
Then she put on a look of fake sincerity and innocence as she said, “The invitation is real. I saw it myself. Looks like we misunderstood you, Emily. Emily, you’re not mad at us, are you?”
Emily wasn’t in the mood for her games. She simply held out her hand and said, “Give me back my invitation.”
Lydia, of course, wasn’t about to hand it over. Her eyes turned red with grievance, brimming with fake tears. She said, “Emily, does this mean you don’t want to forgive us?
“We really didn’t mean to misunderstand you. It was all because of what happened before. If you’re still upset, I’ll apologize for everyone. You can yell at me, hit me, whatever you want-just take it out on me.”
She put on her best “I’m willing to suffer for everyone” act, tears trembling on her lashes, as if she were the most pitiful person in the world.
The crowd, who had been feeling a bit awkward about their earlier misunderstanding, instantly tossed aside any guilt. They aggressively closed ranks around Lydia, glaring at Emily.
One of them snapped, “Lydia already apologized. Why are you still making such a fuss about it?”
Another said, “Lydia already said it was just a misunderstanding. Why can’t you just let it go? Are you picking on Lydia just because she’s kind and easy to bully?”
