When the Tables Have Turned

Kelly's

POV

I took the opportunity to leave when Pierce paused in shock after what I said. I glared at him one last time before I opened the door and slammed it close.

How could he try to touch me after everything that happened?

Oh God! I couldn't believe him! He's really changed. The old him would never disrespect me that way even when he's angry. The old him would lower his voice the moment he realized his mistakes and would immediately apologize for what he's done wrong. I was about to go back and find Klay so we could immediately leave this nonsense party when I bumped into Lexi in the hallway. Her eyes were fixated on me and were sharp as if firing a hole right in my head.

"Where's Pierce?" She asked with gritted teeth.

I shot an eyebrow up and tilted my head. "Do I look like a lost and found. agency?"

She advanced another step, probably to intimidate me, but poor her, I would never be intimidated by her.

"You should be ashamed, Kelly! You're trying to seduce my fiance at our engagement party. How could you?"

I laughed without humor because of what she said. I palmed my forehead and slowly shook my head before looking at her again.

"Can you hear yourself, Lexi? I'm not a slut like you. I won't seduce someone who's already in a relationship. You must've hurt your head. You don't remember that what you're trying to accuse me of is what you actually did almost three months ago?" "Don't play me for a fool, Kelly! I know you showed up here with a plan! You are trying to seduce Pierce!"

"Aren't you the one who sent me an invitation?" I asked, smirking.

She gasped and balled her fists. I laughed again and cupped my mouth. "Oh!

Was that to annoy me? I'm sorry to disappoint you, Lexi... I'm not easy to defeat,"

""You bitch!"

I saw Pierce appear behind her and saw us. He started walking towards us with a worried expression.
