“Hiss…”
She took a glass of water infused with hot peppers and splashed it at Lana’s eyes. “That ugly freak looks like a pig. She can’t even compare to one of Serina’s toes! How were you even able to say that she looks pretty good, Lana?”
Lana wanted to scream from the burning pain, but someone had covered her mouth, so she could only produce muffled cries as she choked with pain.
Serina suddenly squatted down. She took out a photo of Rachel at her fattest and played with it in her hands. “Hey, all of you are being too rough.”
When the others heard her, they giggled and let go of Lana, who covered her red and swollen eyes with her hand. “Please, let me go…”
Serina smiled. “Let’s act in a more refined manner, and make a bet.”
Lana’s weak voice came out of her throat. “What kind of bet?”
Serina pointed at the photo. “If you can prove that she really is good-looking after she loses weight, I’ll eat this photo. If you can’t do it, then you’ll eat it. How does that sound? Isn’t it very fair?”
The rest immediately laughed.
“But what are you to do if that fatty can’t shed the pounds?”
“For the sake of a bet, is she really going to get liposuction done just to prove that her ugliness isn’t because she’s fat? Hahaha…”
“Lana, you have absolutely no way of proving that she’ll look good after she slims down, so…”
“Eat the photo! Eat the photo!”
Everyone clapped and made a ruckus.
Serina held the photo up in her face. “Are you going to eat it yourself, or do you want us to help you with it?”
Serina’s eyes gleamed viciously.
Everyone was congratulating her and cursing that damned fatty, but that little b***h Lana actually said that Rachel’s facial features weren’t ugly?
Hah.
Serina was about to pass the photo to Lana when suddenly… A cool, fair, and slender arm reached over and took it away.
With her eyes downcast, Rachel casually balled up the photo and grabbed Serina’s hair. When she opened her mouth to cry out in pain, she stuffed the photo into her mouth!
Her actions were as slick and smooth as butter.
It was only when she tasted the bitter and unpleasant taste in her mouth that Serina finally reacted. She was about to spit it out when she heard a low and indifferent voice. “A bet’s a bet, Serina.”
Serina’s movements suddenly froze dramatically, and she looked at her as if she had just seen a ghost.
The girl wore a simple white shirt with jeans, which made her legs look long and her waist slender.
Her hair was tied casually behind her, and a few trifling strands covered her neck. Her skin was as smooth as silk and was fair and clean. Her entire self was incomparably beautiful!
That familiar voice, though…
At the sight of the situation, the others gathered around. A boy frowned. “Who the heck are you, pretty girl? Serina is Mr. Huang’s fiancée! Aren’t you afraid of offending the Huangs?”
Rachel ignored him and helped Lana up. Seeing that the condition of her eyes wasn’t too serious even though they had turned red, she whispered, “Go and rinse your eyes with clean water.”
Lana bit her lip and shouted with some uncertainty, “Are you, Rachel?”
“Yeah.”
“…”
Everyone was stunned. They looked at her incredulously.
Someone subconsciously spoke. “That fatty’s actually this stunning after she lost weight?”
Everyone looked at Serina again. She was actually pretty good-looking and could be said to be rather beautiful. She had always been proud of her looks. However, in this instant, as she stood next to Rachel, she instead seemed a little dull.
The look in their eyes made Serina feel as if she had been given a few slaps across the cheek, and her face was burning hot…
She had deliberately told the fatty to come back and annul the engagement during her birthday party just to let everyone see that she, Serina, was so much more beautiful than Rachel.
But now, she had become the joke instead!
“What happened?”
Rachel’s father strode over with his current wife. When he saw Rachel, he was taken aback. Surprised, he called out, “Rachel?”
His elder daughter was actually so beautiful after she slimmed down?
The light in Serina’s eyes flickered at the sight. Suddenly, she broke into tears and took out the photo from her mouth. “Rachel, I know you’re unhappy that Ken is breaking off his engagement with you. You can continue to hit me…”
Her sobs snapped their father back to reality, and he reached out to hit Rachel without any warning. “Rachel! Ken is breaking off his engagement with you because of your immoral behavior and premarital pregnancy! You were the one who didn’t know better. What does your sister have to do with it?”
Rachel felt the depths of her heart turning cold.
Five years ago, her biased father’s heartlessness had thoroughly broken her heart.
She was about to avoid the slap when her stepmother, Wendy Simpson, unexpectedly came forward and stopped her father. “There are so many people watching, Henry. Don’t forget the more important matter.”
The more important matter…
Henry Parker suppressed his anger and spat, “Come upstairs with me!”
In the study.
Henry, Wendy, and Serina sat together.
Rachel sat opposite them. She leaned against the sofa, her eyelids drooping, making her look like a defiant madman who despised everything. However, anyone familiar with her would know that she was just sleepy.
