Chapter 231

Floretta’s expression darkened as she retorted, “What do you want? When you claimed that I didn’t have a mommy, I brought her to show you. And yet, you still haven’t apologized despite losing the bet!”

“Apologize?”

Mark took a step forward and shoved her back as he snarled, “Stop dreaming! My aunt says that Angeline is a woman who would do anything for money. Besides, she isn’t your real mommy. Your real mommy has still abandoned you.”

As the push caused her to stagger back, Floretta’s eyes reddened with tears welling up in them. Balling her fingers into fists, she lashed out at him.

“I’ve never done anything to you, so why do you keep bullying me? I don’t want to argue with someone as unreasonable as you.”

With that, she changed directions and attempted to head downstairs.

However, Mark’s two friends snatched the hair clip away from her.

“There doesn’t seem anything special with this hair clip, and yet, she holds it as if it’s a treasure.”

In a rare display of rage, Floretta gritted her teeth as she attempted to take it back.

“Give me back my hair clip, you clowns! I was going to give it to Angel as a present!”

“I’m not giving it back!”

The two boys made faces to infuriate her further before passing the hair clip to Mark.

“Return it to me!”

Nonetheless, a glint of vengeance flashed across Mark’s eyes. “I’m not going to. You’re just a child who was abandoned by her mommy!”

With that, he gathered his strength and hurled the hair clip down the stairs.

“Ah! No!” Floretta gasped as she lunged at the hair clip by reflex.

Unfortunately, she slipped on the ground, causing her to tumble down the steps like a ball.
