Chapter 288

It was the dark side of human nature to kill or destroy something one disliked.

Not letting Andrea out of my sight, I put my hand on my baby bump in a protective manner. I sneered,

"No matter how well-connected the Moore family is, you couldn't escape from justice. Surely the

prestigious Moore family wouldn't harm innocent people only for you. Judging by how triggered you

looked right now, I don't think you're accepted by most of the people in the family, aren't you?"

If that wasn't the case, she wouldn't have to behave like a peacock in front of the outsiders.

Acknowledging that she couldn't win the argument, Andrea was so vexed that she stomped her feet

and hissed at me, "Just you wait and see!"

Then, she turned around and strode off angrily back to the private room.novelbin

However, she walked too quickly and ran into Chloe right around the corner.

"Are you blind!" Andrea shrieked, her foul mood worsened as she was hit. As if yelling

at Chloe wasn't enough to vent her anger, Andrea even pushed Chloe back to the ground once they

steadied themselves.

Just this act alone vividly demonstrated the arrogance and overbearing nature of Andrea.

Chloe was still carrying snacks in her hand. Fortunately, the snacks were safe from the fall.

She suppressed her anger and got up from the ground, "Sorry, I was in a hurry. I didn't mean to hit

you."

"Am I supposed to forgive you just because it wasn't on purpose?" Andrea roared. Looking sideways at

Chloe, she added in disdain, "It's disgusting to even come in contact with someone as dirty as you."

After saying that, she snatched the snacks from Chloe's hand and threw them into the trash can on the

side without hesitation.

Then, she said, "It's already dirty. Go and buy it for me again!"

"You Chloe frowned, and she didn't seem like she could hold back her anger any longer. "Miss Burton,

you were the one who threw it into the bin. Why are you doing this?"

Andrea nodded, unashamed of her action. Arrogantly, she shrugged and said, "Fine, if you don't want

to go and buy, I'll go in and tell Austin, Josiah, and Hendrix that you deliberately ran into me to get back

at me."

"You're shameless!" Chloe gnashed her teeth in anger.

Andrea only smiled triumphantly at Chloe with folded arms. Staring at Chloe with a snobbish look,

Andrea asked, "So, are you going to buy it or not?"

I watched in silence from a distance.

For a long time, Chloe kept her silence too. She bit her lips, concealing the irritation in her dark eyes.

Finally, she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll buy it for you."

After that, Chloe turned around and walked toward the main entrance of Paramount Hall.

Leaning against the wall, Andrea turned to look at me with contempt, "I thought you were someone

who would fight for justice. Now it seems that you're more stone-hearted than I imagined. You're not

kind either, Arianna."

Then, Andrea entered the private room without waiting for my response.

I slowly trailed behind her, and my eyes slightly darkened. I never said that I was someone warm-

hearted.

It's not that I wouldn't fight for righteousness. It just had to depend on who I was fighting for.

I had dealt with Chloe several times. She was more calculating than Andrea.

However, just a few months ago, she was plotting to get Hendrix's heart. I wondered why it changed to

Josiah.

Hendrix noticed that I came in the private room right behind Andrea when we returned to the room. He

got up to walk towards me, pulling me into his arms while he asked, "Are you alright?"

I didn't answer him, only glancing at Andrea, who was glaring at me with pursed lips and a long face.

I could tell that she was jealous.

Hendrix caught sight of my gaze and followed it to see that I was looking at Andrea. Frowning, he shot

her a warning glare with his dark eyes.

However, he said nothing either.

I supposed Andrea had never received a death glare from Hendrix before, so she responded to

Hendrix with a downcast face.
