He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 355

*Splash!*

Sheets of cold water cascaded down like a waterfall, drenching the Flynn siblings and Sylvia.

"Ahhhhh!"

Melanie and Sylvia shrieked like they were being murdered. Their flawless makeup immediately began running in streaks down their faces.

"You... you absolute psychos! I'll kill you!" Melanie shrieked, her finger trembling as she pointed at Scarlett, too stunned and drenched to form a coherent threat.

Seeing the bodyguards reaching for refills, Yardley and Sylvia panicked and bolted for the exit.

But Sylvia's outrageously expensive, heavily layered princess gown was a liability. In her frantic rush, she tripped over the hem and went sprawling onto the floor. Before she could even attempt to scramble up, a second wave of water hit her dead on.

The glamorous, puffy skirt was now plastered to her body like a heavy, sodden rag. Her tiara was knocked askew, and a fake eyelash dangled precariously on her cheek. There was absolutely nothing left of the haughty "Schmidt heiress" she had been parading as just moments before.

She looked exactly like a pathetic, drowned rat.

Talia couldn't hold back a bark of laughter. She immediately whipped out her phone and started recording the spectacular downfall.

Too humiliated to even argue, Sylvia gathered up her ruined skirts and fled back to the other ballroom, sobbing uncontrollably.

Yardley and Clarissa had also caught some of the splashback, but they didn't run. They stood frozen, their faces tight and furious, glaring coldly at Scarlett.

Clarissa was the first to speak, her tone dripping with exhaustion and disapproval.

"Scarlett, do you have to turn everything into a spectacular disaster?"

"Why can't we just sit down and talk like adults? Why do you always insist on publicly humiliating everyone?"
