Chapter 1270 Clues of Tina’s Whereabouts

Cynthia knew Sonia felt disgusted by the state of Cynthia’s legs and became nauseated. However, Sonia fought the urge to vomit because she didn’t want to upset Cynthia, so that was why she reacted this way.

Still, Cynthia wasn’t angered by Sonia’s reaction. Perhaps it was true at the start that she could not accept the fact that others reacted in such a way whenever they saw her legs. If she noticed it, she would be incensed and throw a fit.

However, after seeing it time and time again, she slowly got used to it, and eventually, she could even take it in stride without letting it affect her. After all, what could anger do for her?

Would her legs recover? Thus, instead of being bothered by other people’s reactions, she figured it would be better to focus on her state of mind.

“It’s hard to stomach, isn’t it, Miss Reed?” Cynthia calmly rearranged the skirt to hide her legs once more.

Sonia took a few deep breaths to regain her composure. She had a complicated look in her eyes as she stared at Cynthia before she nodded gently. “I was a bit shocked. Your legs…”

“Tina Gray did this.” Cynthia kept her cool as she informed Sonia of the culprit behind her suffering.

Sonia hummed in acknowledgment. “I guessed as much. You just told me you hate Tina, and then you showed me your legs, so it was easy enough for me to figure out who did it. But why did she do it?”

“What other reason could there be? Jealousy, of course.” Cynthia snorted. “It all happened years ago. It was about seven or eight years ago, I think. Once, I went shopping with Tina, and she took a liking to a little black dress from Doir. It was a short bodycon dress, and the slim-fit cutting meant that it highlighted the wearer’s figure a lot. Anyone whose figure was a little less than ideal would look like a trainwreck in the dress, but Tina loved it so much and insisted on trying it on anyway.

I was standing beside Tina at the time, and the sales assistant then said that my legs looked good and that I would suit this dress well. Just because of what the sales assistant said, Tina immediately started resenting me. Although she didn’t do anything there and then, as soon as we went back,
