"Then, what is your intention? Why are you here to see me? Lexie sized her up with a probing gaze after she was able to think normally."
"Hehe. Zoella chuckled mockingly. ""I'm here to see how you live as the underdog. Your tragic experience will serve as a reminder for me never to forget about success. Do not forget how pathetic a person's stupidity can hurt them. For a stupid woman like you, prison is your best way out. If you're out of prison, you'll be jeered to death."""
Her malicious words pierced Lexie's heart like a dagger.
"Lexie's eyes dimmed. Her face was frighteningly pale, and she began to tremble. After a while, she smiled sadly. ""Zoella, no matter how vicious I am, you're a thousand times worse than me. My fate is pathetic, but remember, you won't succeed either. If you don't believe me, then let's just wait and see."""
"Zoella was infuriated and the rage in her eyes was terrifying, but she soon calmed down and smiled confidently. ""Lexie, I'm totally different from you. How can we share the same ending? I'm smart and you're stupid, I know how to advance and retreat. I've suffered humiliation since childhood, but you're arrogant and greedy. You want to have all the good things in the world. How is that possible? I'm not greedy but I am skilled, knowing how to plot. As for you, you're just a puppet for others to play with. This is the difference between us two. In comparison, I am in a more advantageous position than you. Tell me, how can I end up like you?"""
"As she said this, she laughed."
"Lexie's whole body shuddered, and her lips quivered so hard that she couldn't speak."
Let me tell you. I've predicted your undoing and knew that a woman like you wouldn't be able to succeed. That's why I sent you to your doom. I didn't expect you to lead such a tragic life. Zoella laughed gloatingly and continued.
"Zoella, no matter how miserable I am, my life has been spared. I'm afraid you'll be dead by then. Lexie was on the verge of a breakdown from Zoella's blows. She stood up coldly and gritted her teeth as she spoke."
