Chapter 669 Silent
Just as Chloe and Candy were nearing the door, the man's loud comment reached Candy's ears.
She came to an abrupt halt; her brow furrowed so deeply it seemed like she could crush a fly with it.
Chloe noticed Candy's reaction and gently tugged at her sleeve. "Candy, let's go!"
She didn't want Candy to confront the man again. After all, it wasn't worth it, and she knew that if Candy pressed further, it would be impossible to keep the truth about the medication under wraps.
Candy closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm herself.
She thought, "There are just too many idiots out there. I shouldn't let them get to me."
But the man wasn't done. Even after sitting back down, he continued bad-mouthing Chloe. "She must has slept with many men. Otherwise, how could she get such a dirty disease? Looks good on the outside, but she's nothing but trash!"
The instant Candy heard that, she lost it.
Without a second thought, she marched back to the man, grabbing an empty wine bottle from the table and glaring at him. "You say that one more time! Don't you know that spreading lies is a crime!"
The whole table was startled by her sudden outburst, but it didn't take long for them to regain their composure.
"What's your problem? Your friend has AIDS. You're her friend, so who knows if you've got it too? Get lost, you're filthy!"
The mention of AIDS was like a red rag to a bull for Candy. She was fuming and slammed the bottle down on the table. "You better say that again!"
She thought, "They're the ones who started harassing us, and when that didn't work, they just started spreading lies?
They should look at themselves if they want to talk about diseases!"
As the commotion grew louder, a waiter rushed over to intervene, first trying to take the bottle from Candy's hand. "Ma'am, calm down, let's not make things worse."
