Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Krystal’s lies spun as the security guard eyed her up and down, along with Tina and Nichole standing behind her.

“I’m sorry, but visitors to the community need to have their identity confirmed and also need explicit permission from the homeowner to enter.” The security guard’s demeanor was impervious to persuasion.

Krystal retorted, Tve never heard of needing ID to visit a friend. I told you, that person is my friend, and we’re from the same school.”

“Sorry, please have the homeowner call us, then we can let you in.”

The security guard’s tone was already showing signs of impatience. The residents here were all wealthy and influential, which seemed to elevate even the security guards‘ standards.

Frustrated but helpless, Krystal eventually had to slink away defeated.

On their way back, Tina finally voiced her confusion, “Who is that woman, really? I heard that only pretty important people live in that complex. Is she really a sugar baby?”

“Tina, what are you implying? if she’s not a sugar baby, is she some kind of rich lady? Don’t be ridiculous, stealing someone else’s boyfriend?” Krystal scoffed dismissively.

Hearing Krystal’s response, Tina fell silent.

“That’s all we can do,” Krystal said, her expression downcast. It was a pity they hadn’t managed to catch Sophie in the act.

At that moment, high up in the apartment complex, Sophie was watching Nichole and the others as they left.

The security guard had already called Sophie, asking, “Ms. Sophie, three people just came to the gate claiming to be your friends. Should I let them in?”

“No, if they come again, send them away.”

“Alright, Ms. Sophie.”

“What else? Put on a catfight show downstairs?”

Sophie didn’t want to waste her time on these trivial matters.

She didn’t understand why, in her past life, her calculated attempts to get close to James had been ignored by Nichole, but now that she was rebom and no longer pursued James, Nichole had started attacking her.

Sophie decided to steer clear of Nichole–related drama to avoid future trouble.

“But why did you suddenly have time to come over today?” Sophie asked as she sat opposite Colby and poured some water.

“Adler called me this morning, all flustered, saying someone was spreading rumors about you at school. Then he called again at lunch saying you almost got into a fight in the cafeteria, so I came to see what the fuss was about,” Colby explained, sounding quite serious

Sophie marveled at Adler’s ability to exaggerate. She responded, “That’s not true. How could I possibly get into a fight in the cafeteria? Don’t listen to his wild stories.”

“But the rumors are real.” Colby said meaningfully, “A good–natured women can be trampled on and bullied.”

Sophie didn’t take Colby’s words to heart, assuming he was just joking.
