"So that’s why you came to me. Do you think these things have anything to do with me?" Anita finally understood why he had been so crazy these past two days.
"What the hell are you pretending for? Anita, you bitch. If it weren’t for your husband, Owen, would Miranda have dared to do this? It’s all your fault that I’m in this state."
"We harmed you? Eric, why don’t you look at what you’ve done? If you hadn’t been desperate to climb up the ladder and ride on someone else’s coattails, you wouldn’t have ended up like this," Anita said as she listened to Eric.
"Anita, don’t lecture me. You always act like you’re high and mighty. I’ve had enough of you. Why don’t you look at yourself? Aren’t you with Owen for his money? And you’re also hooking up with your mentor and that suckup just now. Do you think you’re any better than me?"
"Eric, whether or not I’m a good person isn’t for you to decide. You ruined my reputation at school today. Do you think you’ll end up well?"
"Are you threatening me? You’re bullying everyone just because you have Owen backing you. To tell you the truth, I’m not afraid. I’m screwed anyway and I have nothing to lose."
"But you’re different. Look at this group of onlookers. How many of them came up to help you and how many of them are recording a video with their phones? You might become famous later." Hearing Anita’s words, Eric leaned closer to her and pointed at the people around him while smiling shamelessly.
"What do you think Owen will think if he sees this video? Will he think you’re after his money? And what will his parents think of you?" Eric said to Anita.
"Eric, do you think this is meaningful? You weren’t like this before. How did you become like this now?" Anita looked at Eric again and said softly.
"In the past? In the past, whenever I sang a song or did something in school, everyone would say that I was a future star. They even said that I was talented and that there were many people who liked me. They were all f*cking liars. Why didn’t anyone appreciate the songs I worked so hard to write? Why was it that other people who casually wrote just anything no matter how trashy it was could become famous?" Listening to Anita’s words, Eric seemed to be lost in his memories and said crazily.
"Eric, what does any of this have to do with me? Why are you taking revenge on me for your own failures?"
"What right do you have to say that it has nothing to do with you? If it weren’t for Owen and Miranda, I would have succeeded. You know what? I was going to be a mentor on a show, but I lost the opportunity now."
"Since you guys don’t make life easy for me, I won’t let anyone else have it easy," Eric said fiercely to Anita. freёwebnovel.com
"And I’ve already recorded the video. The paparazzi are already waiting outside. I’m going to post it online later. Isn’t Miranda going to be the spokesperson of a new product for Owen’s company? I heard that the press conference is this afternoon. Then let’s let everyone see the true colors of the CEO’s wife. She’s actually a slut who goes around seducing men," Eric said smugly as he waved the phone in his hand.
Hearing Eric’s words, Anita felt a chill and instantly understood. So Eric’s real goal was to post the video online to affect the launch of Owen’s new product.
"Eric, give me your phone. If there’s anything, come at me. Don’t implicate the others." Anita said to Eric. freewebnovёl.ƈom
"Anita, you? It would have been better if you had agreed to me earlier. It’s too late now." Eric sneered when he heard Anita’s words. After saving the video he had just recorded, he looked up at her and continued, "But it’s not impossible for you to get the video. Do you have two million?"
"Two million? I don’t have it now."
"No? Then what’s there to talk about? What a waste of time. I’ll get going first. If you want the video, get the money."
"Okay, there’s nothing else. Get lost." With that, Eric waved his hand and left without looking at Anita.
As soon as he left, the group of people around him became bored. They looked at Anita, who was still standing in the middle of the road. Still, no one came up to console her. Everyone looked at each other before starting to disperse.
Anita’s upperclassmen, who used to be in the same laboratory as Anita, actually didn’t come up to console her at all.
Even though this farce was over, no one came up to console her. "Ha, people are really quite cold-hearted." Anita looked at the gradually dispersing crowd and said softly.
