When I Was A Wallflower

Chapter 23 Want Amelie Torn to Pieces

Jodie lifted her chin up high and held it up with a hand.

She tilted her eyelids at just the right angle to shoot Amelie a look as full of disdain as her smirk.

“The difference between the two of us is like the difference between a beast and an elite human, Amelie,” she stated.

“Be it among the Alstons or in Starlight Media, I am always at the top of the pyramid. I always have the best. You can squeeze that tiny brain of yours all you want, but you can only be at the bottom of the pyramid. Like a puny ant, you do not even deserve to be trampled on by someone like me! Even so, all you can do is stay for a brief period in those places,” she continued. “You have stayed in my home for four years. In this company, I don’t think you can last more than a few hours, even if you work as a janitor. So, cherish it well.”

Frankly speaking, Amelie had done nothing to make Jodie hate her.

In fact, Amelie even let Jodie walk all over her.

However, it was human nature to develop superiority complexes.

If someone who one viewed as a nobody continued being a nobody, it would be seen as just how the world worked.

The moment the nobody displayed any sort of talent that overshadowed them, it was considered an offense.

It would be considered the worst offense ever.

Ever since the divorce, Amelie had been hanging out with so many amazing people that Jodie felt humiliated.

The humiliation happened every single day, and it hit her where it hurts most.

Not only did she feel embarrassed, her guts were all twisted together in agonizing fury.

She wanted to put Amelie in her place.

Amelie should continue being a nobody!

Moreover, she had to live an even more tragic life than before.

“What is all that noise? Come here already!”

Just then, the head of the Janitorial Department called out to them. They had been standing in the hallway for quite a while now.

“See?” Jodie haughtily said. “Look at you. They don’t even need to ask who you are before assuming you are a janitor.”

“Good luck.”

She then waved at Amelie.
