Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back

Perhaps it was because she had brought up someone she disliked that Sunny's tone turned icy. "That man had the nerve to ask for my forgiveness. He claimed he loved me, that his past shortcomings made it hard for him to admit his feelings, that he didn't know how to love, and that's why he allowed Arabella to treat me the way she did. He just wanted me to beg for him, to love him."

She spoke the words without a trace of emotion, as if she were a machine reciting lines.

It was as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.

She let out a cold laugh. "He said it was all his own doing, and he knows he was wrong."

"I told him that I actually did love him once, but he was the one who shattered it all. So I can never forgive him. He destroyed everything himself. He's the reason I don't love him anymore, and frankly, I hope he rots."

Miranda recalled that a couple of days ago, she'd heard from Zephra Prison that Dorian had suddenly lost his mind. Now she understood why.

"In truth, I never loved him," Sunny said calmly. "I was just infatuated in my youth, but that infatuation was like the wind, passing by in a moment. The reason I said those things was to make him realize that he destroyed the happiness he could have had, to make him suffer and live in torment for the rest of his life. A man like him deserves to spend his days in self-torment and agony."noveldrama

"And his sister, Arabella," Sunny chuckled. "Seeing her in hysterics, with nothing left, I'm glad she's finally getting what she deserves."

"What's done is done," Wendy comforted her. "From now on, our world will be free of these people."

Miranda nodded and smiled. "Wendy's right. Let's welcome a new beginning, Sunny."

Sunny smiled back. "I know. I won't let you down. Or Wendy."

Taking advantage of their rare meet-up, Miranda invited them to lunch.

There happened to be a mall nearby.

Miranda led them to an upscale restaurant and ordered a table full of dishes.

At first, the two were a bit reserved, but gradually they loosened up and relaxed.

"Miranda, you're the best! By the way, aren't you taking any more gigs?" Wendy asked between bites.

Miranda replied, "Not planning to at the moment. We'll see later. I've got a lot on my plate right now."

Wendy nodded understandingly and didn't press further.

Sunny quietly ate her meal, not inquiring further about Miranda's affairs either.

"It's such a pity you're not taking on new projects. Your last show was a huge hit, and the cameos you did are practically worshipped by fans now. They're eagerly waiting for you to join another program or take on a new role."

Miranda raised an eyebrow. "There are plenty of folks waiting for me to do things."

Just as she was speaking, a commotion broke out.

"What's your problem? If I blocked you, I blocked you. Some things I kept civil just out of respect," Hugo Bartley's voice was cool. "Are you seriously going to harass me while I'm eating? When did Ms. Sterling become this low?"

Hugo was there to meet a collaborator for a project investment. Unexpectedly, he ran into Celeste dining with her friends.

Running into her was one thing, but she had the audacity to confront him about blocking her.

Was she out of her mind?

Celeste fumed, "Harassment? We've known each other for years! And you still choose her over me, someone you just met? How can you believe everything she says and not me? Has she cast a spell on you? Are you seriously that gullible? It's disgusting!"

Hugo frowned.

The collaborator sitting with them wisely pretended not to notice, though he was

all ears, afraid to miss a thing.

"Hugo, if you don't give me an explanation, I won't let this slide! We've been

friends for so long, and you treat me like this? I've never been this humiliated in

my life!" Celeste's voice quivered with a mix of anger and tears.

Wendy and Sunny both glanced at Miranda knowingly.

Wendy whispered, "Miranda, is he your new rumored beau?"
