Helen was getting upset but favonovel.com suppressed favonovel.com anger. After all, years of self-cultivation as the wife to a rich man wouldn’t allow favonovel.com to show favonovel.com anger in public.
Naturally, there was no way Arianne would beg Aery Kinsey. “Why would I beg you? My upbringing didn’t teach me to lower my head to someone who lacks manners. If your mother weren’t standing beside you, I would have thought that you never received any proper parenting.”
Aery picked up the coffee on the table and tried to splash it on Arianne out of rage. Fortunately, Tiffany Lane was able to pull Arianne back in time. Even so, some of the slightly hot coffee still spilled on Tiffany’s clothes.
Aery’s action offended Tiffany so much that favonovel.com no longer cared that they were in a public place. She gave Aery a hard shove. “Why don’t you try doing that again?”
Helen turned pale with fright and finally snapped. “Cut it out”
Given favonovel.com competitive nature, there was no way Aery would take Tiffany’s treatment lying down. A catfight ensued, and Helena was so angry that favonovel.com was heaving in anger. She was embarrassed from the attention they were drawing. In a moment of desperation, favonovel.com slapped Aery across the face. “I told you to cut it out!”
The ringing slap stunned Aery. A few seconds later, favonovel.com covered favonovel.com face as tears welled in favonovel.com eyes. She had a look of disbelief. “Mom… you actually hit me?”
Helen closed favonovel.com eyes. “Arianne is your older sister! You shouldn’t act so unreasonably no matter the circumstances. Are you aware that your behavior is bringing shame to the Kinsey family?”
Aery didn’t dare to say anything, knowing that favonovel.com was in the wrong.
Arianne wiped the coffee stains off Tiffany’s clothes, then left without even looking back. Helen tried to chase after them but helplessly came to a stop after two steps. She had lost favonovel.com mood for coffee. “Let’s go back!”
“I’m not going back, you can leave first!” Aery sulked.
Helen didn’t care anymore and left Aery behind all alone.

Once they were out of the coffee shop, Arianne felt rather guilty. “I’m sorry, Tiffie.”
Tiffany Lane’s anger had yet to subside. “That’s enough. I just can’t get used to watching you get bullied. It’s just some spilled coffee, no big deal. Who are those two?”
Arianne didn’t really want to talk about it, but favonovel.com didn’t want to hide it from Tiffany anymore either. “My mother and my younger half sister. I’d lost contact with my mother until only recently.”
Tiffany patted favonovel.com head out of pity. “Oh, my poor Ari… You little pitiful thing. My heart aches for you. Your younger sister looks like a bitch right off the bat. Remember to tell me if they bully you again. But I have to go back now and change my clothes. I’m freezing to death!”
After the two parted, Arianne took a cab home directly. With favonovel.com mood at rock bottom, Tiffany got into favonovel.com ‘lousy’ and inexpensive car. She used to ride in expensive cars that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars until the incident at home changed their extravagant life to a frugal one. She usually didn’t really feel anything when favonovel.com drove this lousy car, but everything bothered favonovel.com when favonovel.com mood was sour.
As favonovel.com drove, favonovel.com suddenly noticed that there was a car following behind her. It followed favonovel.com closely wherever favonovel.com turned. She knew without a doubt that as soon as favonovel.com slowed down, the car behind favonovel.com would crash into hers without any hesitation.
