A Night with Her Cruel Mate novel Chapter 71

"I brought you breakfast." Jean gave her sister an innocent smile. "You got here so early to do your make-up, so you probably didn't have time to eat breakfast, right? I brought you some milk and steamed buns. You better have some first."

"No, thanks." Without raising her eyes to look at Jean, Julia stared at her reflection and called the make-up artist, "Can you please retouch my face?"

"You must eat a little." Jean guessed that Julia would act like this, so she stayed to irritate her further. "You know, Terence drove me to work this morning and bought me food. You should try some. It's a kind gesture from him."

Jean stuffed the milk and buns in Julia's hands. "You should eat something..."

"I said no. Are you deaf?" When Jean reached out to touch her, Julia couldn't restrain her temper any more. She threw the milk and buns on the floor.

The milk splattered and created a puddled mess on the floor while the buns rolled around, before hitting the wall.

The room suddenly became very quiet. When Julia realized what she had done, she sat back down. Embarrassed, she slowly groaned, "I told you that I don't want it. Why did you shove them in my hands?"

Jean looked at Julia with guilty eyes and stammered, "I just wanted to—"

"Jean, I don't think she appreciates your kindness." Before Jean could finish, Lisa's voice entered the room. When she witnessed Julia bullying Jean, she didn't like what she saw and immediately rushed over to confront Julia. "Some people just don't like to be treated with kindness. Who does you think she is?"

"Lisa, please don't say that." Although Jean had a hurtful expression on her face, she was secretly pleased at Lisa's accusations. Still pretending, Jean tugged her friend's sleeve and pleaded, "Let's just go. It's my fault."

"No way!" Lisa withdrew from Jean and came up to Julia. She snarled, "You aren't even famous yet, but you're already so arrogant. If you become popular, I can't imagine how arrogant you'll be."

"Miss Zheng, this is a private matter between Jean and me. You should refrain from poking your nose in situations that you don't understand." Julia gave her a cold and deadly stare. It was obvious that Jean provoked her in the first place.

"Jean is my best friend and I won't stand idle while you bully her," Lisa snapped. "Hurry up! You better apologize."

Julia menacingly glanced at Jean. Like a frightened rabbit, she hid behind Lisa.

However, Julia saw the triumphant look on Jean's face. As long as she was willing to, everyone was willing to stand up for her. On the other hand, nobody would take Julia's side because she was an outcast and friendless on set.

"Forget it," Jean said after waiting for a while. Seeing that it was going nowhere, she pulled Lisa's arm. "Julia didn't do it on purpose. Let's go."

"No way!" Lisa coldly glared at her. "Jean, you are easily bullied. That's why she keeps yelling at you. Just wait and see. She will apologize to you."
