Trapped By Tainted Love

Ivy sneered, "I've changed my mind.Even if you get on your knees and beg me for forgiveness, I won't let Rachel off the hook.Just give up!"

Upon hearing that, Abby's face turned paler.

"How could you break your promise, Ivy?"

"So what if I break my promise? Is there anything you can do about it?"

The way Ivy said those words were filled with disdain and malice.

Ever since Rachel showed up, she hadn't said much.

She held Abby's arm, and felt that Abby was clearly trembling.

She then cast Abby a glance, and only then did she see that her clothes had coffee stains too; even more stained than the documents.

Abby's clothes were soaked, and due to how thin the fabric was, she could see her bare skin turned red after getting burned by the piping hot coffee.

It was apparent that Abby was trembling from the pain.

All of a sudden, Rachel's mood took a turn for the worse.

With a face devoid of emotion, she turned to Ivy and asked, "Did you spill coffee on her on purpose?"

Although she was asking a question, the way she said it made it seem like she was certain that Ivy did it on purpose.

The sound of Rachel's voice was so intimidating that it shook Ivy to the core.

"What...what are you trying to say? She's the one who bumped into me!"

Ivy stammered.Her face paled, and a look of guilt glinted in her eyes, but she quickly calmed down.

"Rachel, I was holding a cup of coffee, and your dog bumped into me.How am I the one to blame? You can't pass the buck to me with that baseless accusation!"

Every time Ivy called Abby her "dog", Rachel became more and more livid.

"Is that so?" she asked, averting her gaze from Ivy and looking at Abby.

"Abby, did you bump into Ivy on your own?" Rachel asked.

"I...."

Abby lowered her head.
