The friendship between me and Joseph was also gradually consumed.
"That's all gone."
I still couldn't bear it after all.
The sound was scattered in the air.
After a long time, Joseph didn't say anything.
All I heard was a chuckle.
"Helena, you are cruel. You were like that before, and you are still like that now."
Joseph suddenly grabbed my neck and pulled me into his arms.
There was a sharp pain in the neck.
"Joseph!"
I cried out in surprise and tried to struggle.
My hands were tightly clamped and I looked out the window involuntarily.
Then I gradually relaxed.
I placed my hand on Joseph's head and lowered my head to whisper in his ear.
The tone was ambiguous, even with some provocation that I was not even aware of.
"I saw Emily, your fiancée."
In the distance, Emily was walking towards this side in high heels.
The pain from the biting on my neck suddenly disappeared.
"Joseph, it's ridiculous that you want to belittle me and yet want to own me."
My eyes were full of disdain.
Joseph pinched my neck.
His tone was cold.
"You are so cruel."
Before I could see his expression clearly, the car door was unlocked.
In just a moment, I was pushed out of the car.
The pain spread throughout my body.
Emily's surprised cry also sounded in my ears.
My elbow was rubbed and perhaps bleeding.
I lay beside Joseph's car in such a miserable state, just in front of Emily.
I heard the sound of high heels walking quickly.
I endured the severe pain and stood up.
I wanted to get up from the ground, trying to make myself less embarrassed.
"How are you?"
A gentle female voice sounded in my ears.
I turned my head to the side and tried to cover my face with my hair.
"Joseph, even if she did something wrong, she is still a girl after all. How can you treat her like this?"
Just a short sentence, I became a shameless mistress.
I didn't want to argue too much.
Then I picked up the bag and left.
"Shortcuts are not that easy to take. The faster you go, the harder you fall."
I had always been a revengeful person.
I felt so angry.
I turned around and wanted to fight with Joseph.
But the moment I saw Emily, I felt heartbroken.
I tried so hard to protect my self-esteem.
The moment Emily appeared, everything became useless.
In the first twenty years, everything about me was arranged by the Shawn family.
Due to my excessive spending abroad, it was full of debt calls.
But I was penniless at the time.
