Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1173
“Hmm, I wonder who this is. I know! Aren’t you fast, Helen? Howard just ditched you, and see what you’ve got yourself so soon? What a slut.”
Shania looked at Helen contemptuously and turned to the man standing behind herself. “Howard, it’s plain to see that Helen’s a slut, right? Good thing that you’ve made the right choice. Who knows if she was already cheating with him when you guys were together.”
She then clung her hands onto his biceps and leaned her cheeks onto his, trying to make Helen’s hackles rise.
As for Howard, he bobbed his head to every word Shania said and praised her. “Oh, Shania. I’m lucky to have you. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been able to see her true colors.”
What!
What nonsense is this! I’ve had enough. Do you think that I’m a ball which you could kick around as you like?
Helen was as cross as two sticks. She couldn’t care less about how Fabian would judge her. She wasn’t having it. She lunged towards Helen and blabbered, “Who are you to criticize me, huh? Don’t you have anything else better to do? Did you just call me a slut? Then what are you? Look at the scores of boyfriends you had back in school. You just can’t help but snatch them from other girls, can you?” She then looked at Howard. “And you, Howard. You call yourself a man? I was blinded by god-knows-what when I was with you. I can’t believe that you let yourself dwindle into her arms for money. You’re no different from those gold-diggers!”
Helen raised her voice and was on the top of her shaming game. Passers-by came to a stop when they heard the commotion and saw four of them standing in the middle of the mall entrance.
They heard Helen’s bawl and criticism started to brew around Howard and Shania.
Both of them were mortified and their cheeks flushed in embarrassment. The recount of their past and present despicable led to a frenzy of rage.
