A sharp, crushing pain shot through the top of Vickyâs foot, making it almost unbearable.
Vicky instinctively pushed the woman in front of her away.
With considerable force, Vicky managed to knock the woman to the ground in an instant.
Just then, two elegant ladies happened to be walking by from a distance and hurried over upon
witnessing the scene.
âOh my goodness, Aria, are you okay?!â
âDid you hurt yourself anywhere?â
The two ladies stood on each side of the younger woman to help her to her feet.
A few scratches marred the younger womanâs porcelain-like skin, and one of the middle-aged ladiesâ
eyes reddened with concern.
âAria, are you hurt? Does it hurt?â
The younger woman replied, âMom, Iâm fine. Itâs just a few scratches. Theyâll heal.â
Her mother gazed at her with tender affection. âYouâve had health issues since you were little, and now
that youâve finally recovered, you go and hurt yourself. How can I feel at ease when youâre out on your
own?â
âMom, I really am fineâ¦â
The older woman interrupted her daughterâs reassurance. âI told you not to come, but you insistedâ¦
Itâs too late now and everything is done. You wonât change anything by coming here. What if you end
up getting hurt again?â
âMissus Everly.â The woman who had remained silent spoke out, âForget about that. We both saw what
happened. Aria didnât trip on her own. Someone pushed her.â
Missus Everly snapped out of it and turned to look at Vicky, turning pale in an instant when she saw
Vickyâs face.
Instantly, a contemptuous look emerged in her eyes, and she proceeded to scan Vicky up and down
rudely.
âShameless people know no manners wherever they go.â
The other woman smiled. âMissus Everly, some people donât have mothers to teach them the right
ways, so why would they have any manners at all?â
âTrue⦠Still, she seems skilled in the art of seduction. I wonder where she learned that from. If her
parents find out about how shameless their daughter is, they might jump out of their graves.â
The other woman said, âMissus Everly, donât let this vacuous woman upset you. Itâs not worth it.â
Apart from the glance they took at Vicky at first, none of the women bothered to look at her again, and
their faces were filled with contempt and contempt.
Just then, the younger woman spoke out. âMom, Aunty, donât say that. She won everything, hasnât she?
Why else would she show up at a place like this?â
The woman standing next to Missus Everly said in contempt, âShe only got here relying on her man.
Without her man, sheâs nobody. Why else would she work so hard to seduce men?â
After listening to their conversation, Vicky started to realize that these three women had come to pick
on her. After what the younger woman said, her theory had been confirmed.
Just then, Cece could not stand listening any longer and shouted righteously, âWhatâs wrong with you
people? This lady here stepped on Vicky, and despite being warned multiple times, she wouldnât move
her foot. Thatâs why Vicky pushed her away⦠Donât you think you three are being rude for blaming it all
on her?â
Cece had not been able to tell that the women were there to pick on Vicky.
