Chapter 31: She would be sent back to the slums
"Bang!"
The coffee fell from her hand and spilled all over on Darnel and her.
Her limited edition long skirt and Darnell's white suit pants were all splashed with coffee stains.
Darnell hurriedly stood up, frowned at his stained pants, and looked at Coral with some displeasure, "Hey, what's up?"
Coral was still looking outwards, a ghastly pale in her face.
Darnell was about to follow her to see what was happening outside, while Coral hurriedly pulled him, apologized, "I'm sorry, Darnell, too many things happened in the past two days, when I got distracted, I am ... sorry, I'm so sorry."
She must prevent Darnell from seeing Heloise.
Even though she was already planning on abandoning the backup candidate, she couldn't allow Darnell to reunite with the bitch again.
She thought Heloise would never get the man Coral gave up.
"Forget it, let's go to the restroom and deal with it and I'll have some new clothes brought." Darnell said helplessly.
"Yeah."
Coral answered simply and was led towards the restroom by Darnell. As soon as Darnell entered the men's restroom, she turned around and left, not even caring about the large stains on her dress.
Under the dismayed gaze of the waitresses in the coffee shop, Coral made a wild rude run out, all the way to the escalator.
There was no one there.
Where was Heloise?
She'd clearly seen Heloise.
Coral looked around anxiously as the flashy lights of the mall swept across her eyes, and with a death grip on the bag in her hand, she turned and searched the sixth floor of the large mall.
She asked everyone if they had seen a woman in a green dress.
No matter how she struggled to seek much, she couldn't find her.
Could it be that she was blind?
Coral began to doubt herself, thinking about it. How could Heloise have survived in such a place as the slums?
Or was what she saw not a person, but a ghost?
"Eh, it is Coral, isn't it? Why is she so disheveled?"
Someone next to her recognized her.
Coral glanced at the stains on her skirt, wretched and embarrassed, and she reached out to block her face as she hurried toward the coffee shop.
Suddenly, there was a tap on her shoulder.
She subconsciously turned around and saw Heloise's face approaching, her eyes staring straight at her under the removed sunglasses.
"Ah..."
Coral screamed in fright, falling on her butt on the ground and looking at the visitor in horror.
The girl in front of her was born with an innocent face, and her features were clean and clear. Who else could it be if not Heloise?
Coral was so scared that her face was pale and her breath was shaking.
Someone around her took out a cellular phone to take pictures of her. Coral couldn't care about her image any longer, and only stared at Heloise in fear.
Seeing this, Heloise smiled, with those people's cameras behind her back and reached out to help Coral, "Miss, are you alright?"
Coral fearfully tried to retract her hand, but Heloise was already holding it tightly.
Heloise's hand was warm.
She was alive.
Coral looked at her in shock, the timidity in her mind fading away, replaced by the same feeling of superiority she had felt over Heloise for so many years.
Coral stood up from the floor holding her hand and looked at her coldly, "Heloise, haven't you been dead yet?"
"What are you talking about, Miss?"
Heloise looked at her in disbelief, her eyes clean and innocent.
What Coral hated the most was Heloise's clean, innocent look in her face. She realized that Heloise was still so annoying after three years.
She couldn't help but snort coldly, "It seems that the troubles that my family got into were all made by you. You really have the capability enough to irritate me. How did you flee? Did you fly out from the mountains? I'm afraid you don't know what will happen to the people who escape from the slums, do you?"
Heloise stood straight, still looking confused, "Miss, I don't really understand what you're saying?"
"Don't you understand me, huh?" Coral sneered, "Fine, I'll have my dad here right now and he will send you back to the slums."
