Five Years of Marriage to Mr. Bradford (by Koi Fish) novel Chapter 704

Chapter 704

Rebecca was dazed by the turn of events, and Catherine’s sobbing act was cut short.

“Jenny is bold and loyal. Rebecca is gentle and genuine. They’re not the kind of people you’re imagining,” Vance continued firmly.

The two girls exchanged a surprised glance. They couldn’t believe he was actually defending them for once.

Catherine couldn’t keep the act up anymore. Her tearful mask cracked, shifting into a strained smile before she quickly melted back into an expression of deep grievance.

“Then… maybe I got it wrong. I don’t really know them. I’m sorry.”

She stepped over to the two girls and squeezed out a painful, apologetic smile through her remaining tears.

“Rebecca, Jenny, I’m so sorry. Can you ever forgive me? I actually… wanted to be friends with you guys. I was just always so scared… that you wouldn’t accept someone like me.”

By now, a good portion of the crowd that had swarmed into Vance’s restaurant drifted back out. Since the place was completely packed, they had no choice but to wait outside for tables.

Combined with the regular mall foot traffic, the area outside the storefront grew rowdy and crowded once again.

The moment Catherine saw the fresh audience, her urge to perform kicked right back into high gear. Rubbing at her eyes, she started sobbing anew.

“I really wanted to be friends with you. I know you guys come from wealthy families, and I’m out of your league. But I… just transferred here. I don’t have any friends.”

That was unbelievable. She claimed she was apologizing, yet here she was, hijacking the moral high ground all over again.
