Chapter 354
Rebecca looked at the person in front of her in disbelief.
….
Keira was holding a makeup remover wipe, wiping away the faux mole at the corner of her eye, but at the same time, she revealed the mole she had always hidden.
Rebecca had been with her almost every day when she was in Oceanion and was already familiar with Keira’s face.
The color and size of that mole indeed belonged to Keira!
Stunned, she stared at Keira, thinking for a moment that she might have seen it wrong.
After a while, she rubbed her eyes, and then tears welled up in her eyes. She looked at Keira with grievance…
Suddenly, she burst into a loud cry, her tears and snot streaming down without any regard for her image, just like a child who had been wronged!
Keira had intended to scold her and wanted to yell at her for not cherishing her own life, but before she could say anything, she saw Rebecca crying like that, and she couldn’t bring herself to say those words.
Rebecca was too extreme…
But all her extremes were for Keira.
Everyone in this world was qualified to scold her, except for Keira.
Keira sighed, stepped forward, and suddenly hugged Rebecca.
Rebecca was a few inches shorter than Keira, and she stiffened again, then she wrapped her arms tightly around Keira’s waist.
She buried her head into Keira’s chest, and while crying, she said between broken sobs, “Miss Keira, you’re not dead. You’re not dead… ”
Keira patted her back gently. “That’s right. I’m not dead.”
“Thank goodness, you’re not dead!” Rebecca hugged her tightly as if she was afraid that once she let go, Keira would run away.
Keira had no choice but to nod again. “I’m not dead.”
“Thank god…”
Rebecca started to cry muffled cries again.
She cried out all the grievances she had kept to herself this month. She wanted to cry loudly, but she lacked the energy and could only sob…
Outside.
Frankie and Ellis were both stunned, unaware of what was happening inside the bathroom. They pressed their ears against the door, only hearing Rebecca’s crying.
The two exchanged glances, and then Frankie wanted to enter. He tried to open the door, only to find that the door was locked from the inside.
Frankie became even more anxious and shouted, “Rebecca, Rebecca? Keera? Miss South, open the door!”
But Rebecca only cried louder.
Frankie grew more anxious and looked around, then turned to Ellis. “The key! Isn’t this hotel yours? Have the manager send the key over!”
Ellis immediately sent someone to fetch the keys and then also approached the bathroom door. “Keera, please don’t do anything too extreme, okay…”
Victoria showed a worried expression. “Ellis, Mr. Allen, surely Keera isn’t harboring resentment toward Miss Allen and harming her in there, right?”
Upon hearing this, Frankie grew even more restless. He took a step back and called out to Ellis. “Move aside!”
Ellis made way.
Frankie was about to kick the door!
But just then, the bathroom door opened.
Frankie’s kick missed, and he almost performed a split on the spot.
He propped himself up on the ground with both hands to stabilize himself, then looked inside the room.
He saw “Keera” standing there.
He immediately asked with concern, “Where’s Rebecca?”
“She…”
Keira hadn’t finished speaking when Victoria stepped forward and scolded, “Keera, what’s wrong with you? Miss Allen is a distinguished guest, and you forcibly take her into the bathroom like this. What are you trying to do to her?”
Keira was perplexed.
She began, “I…”
Victoria continued. “I know Miss Allen offended you this morning, so you bear a grudge. But even so, you can’t treat her like this. She’s obviously overwhelmed with grief. Can’t you just be more considerate?”
Keira remained silent.
She simply crossed her arms, looking at Victoria. “Go on, keep talking.”
Victoria didn’t know what to say.
Seeing how stubborn Keira was, Victoria turned to Frankie. “Mr. Allen, I was just concerned about Miss Allen…”
Rebecca walked straight out of the bathroom, weakly saying, “Spare me your fake kindness!”
She had just washed her face, and all her makeup had come off, but it was apparent that her spirits were pretty good.
Although her eyes were red, the crazy look from earlier was gone…
Seeing that she was alright, Frankie finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Upon seeing this, Victoria was a little startled, not understanding what had happened between Keira and Rebecca in the bathroom that could manage to stabilize Rebecca’s mental state.
She hesitantly looked at Keira and then began, “Miss Allen, I didn’t mean… You should know about Keera, right? Her mole was drawn on…”
Before she could finish…
“Slap!”
Keira stepped forward and slapped Victoria’s face hard.
Victoria’s expression changed drastically. Holding her own cheek, she looked at Keira. “What are you doing?”
“Retaliation.” Keira narrowed her eyes, a sharp glint flashing through them. “On the rooftop, did you purposely take out cosmetics to remind Rebecca that the mole at the corner of my eye was drawn on?”
Victoria’s eyes flickered when she heard these words.
But then realizing that Ellis and Frankie were both looking at her, she quickly furrowed her brows and cried out with a wronged voice. “How could you wrong me like that? Am I that sort of person?”
Tears started to flow out of her eyes. “I just saw Miss Allen’s makeup had been ruined by crying, and I wanted to help her touch it up…”
“Is that so?”
Keira asked indifferently.
Victoria promptly nodded.
But the next moment…
Keira raised her hand and slapped the other side of Victoria’s face!
Victoria turned her head from the force of the slap, and she was furious. “Keera, how dare you?!”
Keira just clapped her hands, saying, “I’ve already slapped you; what’s there to dare?”
“You…”
Victoria’s eyes were filled with tears, and with a sense of grievance, she turned to Ellis. “Ellis, are you just going to stand there and watch me get hit?”
Keira raised an eyebrow and said, “Whether it was intentional or not, you almost killed both Miss Allen and me. I have every right to slap you twice. How about it, Mr. Ellis, do you disagree?”
Victoria immediately looked at Ellis. “Ellis, you must stand up for me! I am a daughter of the Olsen family. How can I just get slapped like that? If you allow her to do whatever she wants, when the word gets out, won’t the daughters of the Olsen family be treated as worthless?”
Victoria cried very pitifully. New novel chapters are published on novelbin.com.
Yet Ellis just looked at her indifferently, then scoffed, “Family conflicts are not something outsiders can comment on, right?”
Victoria paused. “Family conflict? Ellis, what are you talking about? How can the conflict between me and Keera be considered a family conflict?”
