Chapter 128

Bonnie got smacked by the bouquet, leaving a faint mark on her cheek. She held her face, staring at me in disbelief. This was the first time I’d ever laid a hand on her, my previous offenses were only verbal

This was supposed to be a small blip, but later that night, I received a video from Barbara. It showed me in the hospital room, flinging the bouquet at Bonnie and ordering her to get out of my sight.

The video was edited, it was only a few seconds long and the only dialog was, “Get out of my sight!”

Bonnie’s helpless and pitiful appearance drew a lot of sympathy, including from some old friends and classmates, all defending her. In their eyes, Bonnie was still the innocent and kind girl they knew. Even if she’d become a homewrecker, it was not her fault.
