"Miss Mary, it seems that we keep running into each other a lot recently," sneered Belinda. She didn't understand why Edward still kept her around.
"You're right. Miss Belinda. It appears that you have got yourself a new boyfriend." Mary raised her eyebrows. Belinda nervously stood in front of the man accompanying her. As soon as Mary saw them, she instantly knew that their relationship was not that simple, so she purposely said those words to cause differences between them.
As expected, on hearing Mary's words Duke gave Belinda an unfriendly look from behind. A minute ago, Duke was glad as he thought that Belinda stood in front of him to stop another woman from staring at him. But now he realized that she didn't do it out of jealousy but to prevent Mary from telling about the other man's existence. He was heartbroken.
Belinda didn't perceive the frosty look from behind and continued to sneer at Mary. "Yes. What? You don't want me to change my boyfriend? Or do you wish to get slapped again?"
"Belinda, you are out of line!" Mary got angry. Every time she saw this woman, she got whacked.
"Am I? I don't think so. After all, I'm not the one who has a thing for her sister's husband!" When Belinda got mad, she didn't spare the other person's feelings. Mary's plan was exposed now.
Rain quickly glimpsed at Mary. Any rational person could see that Mary admired Edward. It was clear to him that the husband Belinda referred to was Edward. Now, he realized that Mary was Daisy's sister and thought, 'A girl trying to pursue her own brother-in-law! How shameless!'
Mary's face had turned red with anger. She glared at Belinda. Although that was true, it was an embarrassing thing to be made public. "Belinda, what do you mean? Who has a thing for another woman's husband?"
"I didn't mention any names. But clearly, whoever got angry about it has admitted it herself, and by putting on such a drama, she has proven that what I said is true ." Belinda responded with a sneer. 'What a shameless woman! Can't she find any other man in the world except for Edward?'
At first, Duke was angry, but now he got confused. Mary was almost a stranger to him, and he didn't know that she was Daisy's sister. He didn't understand what the two women were fighting about.
Edward knew Belinda was fighting for Daisy, so he decided not to say anything. How Mary and Daisy were getting along was still unclear to him. Before he figured it out, it would be rash to take sides.
Clenching her fists, Mary wasn't sure what to say. She felt extremely embarrassed. If Edward weren't there, she would have torn Belinda's mouth to pieces.
Based on the friendship of them, a group feast would be in order. Mary burned with hate at the thought of having to face Belinda. Why on earth did she have to see that woman so often?
