Chapter 554

The other patrons turned to look at Ally, who was sniffling

Jean approached Ally slowly before suddenly striking her cheek. "That was for Mrs. Ludwig. I didn't mind when you slandered me, but your words hurt Ben and the Ludwig's reputation. Guess what? I'll relay your comments to Mrs. Ludwig if I meet her so that she'll know how 'highly educated' you are! Hah, and you call yourself a lady too?!"

People who met Jean would usually be in awe. She was dressed elegantly, and her aura spelled dignity and grace. However, Jean's rage, coupled with her elegant response, made her much more formidable compared to Ally.

"You have no right..."

Ally's complaint was cut off when she dodged Jean's raised arm, but Jean surprised her with a backhanded slap.

"That was a gift from me. That slap would ensure that your face is symmetrical."

Ally glared at her, secretly plotting her revenge. However, she was not willing to get into a catfight with Jean in public. Furthermore, her face was still stinging from the blows.

"Go away." Jean spat coldly.

Ally felt the pain on her cheeks grow hot and prickly as it spread up to her temples and down her jaw. It would serve me wellto play the victim now.

"I just wanted to remind you not to play with Ben's feelings. It's not good to date around, you know." Ally commented loudly when she saw that people were watching them.

Hearing Ally's comment, the people around them, who were initially siding with Jean, felt less inclined to support her anymore.

Ally could not resist breaking a smile when she sensed the change of mood in the room. However, in a split second, Jean retorted.

"Are we suddenly friends? Why do you care if I am dating multiple people? Are you an auditor - why are you keeping me accountable? I warned you before - try not to get into a disagreement with me." Ally felt her life drain out of her face after Jean's verbal onslaught.
