A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

"Please say no more." Rose shook her head, but smirked slightly, "You've misunderstood me, Emily. I was just trying to comfort you."

She feigned sincerity, but her heart was full of pride.

They'd been friends since they were in college, but in comparison, Emily seemed to be better than her at everything; even Emily's boyfriend had better features and family background than Rose's. Why?

Rose, however, didn't believe that she was second to Emily. She tried every means to surpass Emily, including stealing her boyfriend. Finally, she had managed to break them up and it was proof that Emily had lost to her in love. Her superiority complex was soaring off the charts.

Emily clenched her fists, glared at her pretentious face coldly and said, "So, it must feel good to be Jack's mistress?"

"No, that was not my intention. It was Jack who..." With a hint of pretentious helplessness and kindness in her tone, Rose walked close to Emily all of a sudden, and gently asked, "How can you blame me, if you can't even keep your boyfriend in check? He'd never ever touch you, right? Instead, he'd rather make love to me or any other woman. Also, you couldn't imagine how much he enjoyed being in bed with me..."

Rose wore a dress that specifically highlighted her shoulders, just to show off the marks Jack had left on her neck, collarbones and shoulders.

Emily was nauseated by the sight of Rose's shoulders; with a hint of disgust in her eyes, she said to her, "Sorry, I was wrong. You're not a mistress, you're just one of Jack's cheap bimbos."

As to the affair, she wasn't bothered by Rose anymore because it was a well-known fact that Jack was a womanizer. The fact that Rose didn't mind sleeping with a man like Jack, came as a surprise to Emily. In her personal opinion, a man who had multiple love affairs with other women was just like a toothbrush that had been used many times by various people. And similarly, Jack too was such a man, or, more exactly, such a toothbrush. She really couldn't understand how Rose could gladly use that toothbrush to brush her teeth, without any complains?

The word "bimbos" immediately embarrassed Rose, but she had to keep herself from going berserk because she had to play nice ans sweet in front of the people around her. She simply said, "You talk a lot of nonsense..."

"Nonsense? You know it's truth, don't you? After all I'm better than those who don't know how to live and function without a man. Oh, and thank you for recycling the junk I don't want."

Soon, the onlookers felt the awkwardness in the room intensified; they made excuses to leave, and dispersed shortly after.

"Ah! Mr. Hua has asked me to take these files to his office urgently, so sorry I can't chat right now." Emily was just leaving after organizing the files on the desk. Seeing Rose distraught, made her feel a little better.
