“You figured it out!” Rosalie covered her mouth, looking genuinely surprised.
Helena went speechless, cursing Rosalie inwardly.
“Rosalie, do you really want to go this far?” Helena said.
“You’re the one pushing it this far. I’m so kind, I’m just helping you out.” Rosalie smirked, “The chance is yours. Whether you take it is up to you.”
She turned and walked away.
Helena was shaking with anger at how unyielding Rosalie was. She thought, ‘Bitch! One day, I’ll make you pay for this!‘
She clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into her flesh, the sharp pain forcing her to calm down.
She gritted her teeth and, as if making a firm decision, said, “Rosalie, if I do what you said, will you really forgive me?”
“I’ll think about it.”
For her own sake, for her future, and to live a vibrant life like everyone else, Helena believed that even if it meant sacrificing her dignity today, it would be worthwhile.
After all, one day, she would repay every bit of humiliation Rosalie had made her suffer, a hundred times over.
“Okay.” Helena gritted her teeth firmly and, with everyone watching in shock, ran to the middle of the plaza, shouting as loud as she could, “I’m a big idiot!”
Passersby thought, ‘Is this person crazy?‘
They looked at Helena like she was a lunatic.
But right now, Helena didn’t care about any of that. All she wanted
As long as she could stay alive, she would do anything.
Rosalie couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
was to stay alive.
She didn’t know exactly what Helena wanted from her, but if making a fool of herself in front of everyone like that was what it took, it was clear that she had something Helena desperately wanted.
Helena stood in the center of the plaza, feeling the mocking stares from everyone around her. Her face burned with shame, and she almost couldn’t take it anymore.
In her mind, she had already planned a thousand ways for Rosalie to die, but she didn’t dare to let any of that show on her face.
Im a big idiot!” she shouted through her tears.
Once she finished, it felt like a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. She quickly ran back to Rosalie, her eyes red from crying. She hoarsely said, “Rosalie, I did exactly what you asked. Can you forgive me now?”
“Nope.”
“You!” Helena’s expression twisted with rage, and she could no longer keep up the weak persona. She becaine vicious and furious. “You tricked me? You promised me earlier! How could you go back on your word?”
Helena felt like she was going to lose her mind because of Rosalic.
She didn’t care about her face anymore, didn’t care about keeping up the image of a goddess. She had done something so humiliating in public, and still, she had been played by Rosalie.
“How did I go back on my word?” Rosalie looked at her, innocent and confused. “I said I would think about it. I did think about it, and after thinking about it, I decided I don’t want to forgive you
With that, Rosalie even innocently blinked her eyes.
To Helens, this expression seemed like Rosalie was saying, “Tin just a clever little trickster. Isn’t it infuriating, you foal?
