Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany Novel by Rex Ring

Tiffany 612

Chapter 612

Zoe blinked, stunned as she thought, ‘Wait, what? I was just being polite. But the words were already out there, taking them back now would make her look bad.

Gritting her teeth, Zoe dug into her bag for her keys and unlocked the door. “Just so you know,” she muttered, “It’s gonna be messy in there. Don’t judge, alright?”

She pushed the door open as she finished speaking, and it was exactly as she’d warned–a complete disaster. Cigarette butts were scattered across the floor, empty snack bags littered every surface, and even the sofa was buried under a pile of unwashed clothes that gave off a sour odor.

Sidney frowned immediately. As a doctor, he had an obsessive need for cleanliness, bordering on a phobia. Coming from a privileged background, he’d never stepped foot in a place like this.

Zoe forced a strained smile, stepping inside to clear off the sofa. She then cleaned a mug before filling it with hot coffee and placing it on the table. “There, all set. Thanks for your help today. It’s getting late. You should head back.”

Sidney opened his mouth to respond, but before he could get a word out, the sound of stumbling footsteps came from outside.

Zoe’s drunk father, Louis, had come home. He staggered through the door, and upon spotting Sidney, he sobered up in an instant. The alcohol–induced haze lifted. “Sir! You’re here?” he stammered, rushing forward with an ingratiating smile.

The memory of Tiffany banging on the door still haunted Louis. Sidney had been there that day too, and Louis wasn’t about to forget Sidney’s face–one he couldn’t afford to cross.

The stench of cheap booze hit Sidney like a wall. His frown deepened. Seeing his reaction, Zoe grabbed Sidney’s arm and pulled him toward the door. “I’ll walk you out.”

She cursed herself inwardly, ‘If I’d known this would happen, I’d never have extended that polite invitation. Now, all my messy secrets are laid bare. No dignity left.‘

Once they reached the streets downstairs, Brittany and her gang had already cleared out. The road was eerily quiet, the streetlights casting dim pools of yellow light. Their shadows stretched across the pavement. For a moment, they almost looked like a single entity.

Zoe offered an awkward laugh. “Sorry about all this. I didn’t even let you finish your coffee.”

“It’s fine,” Sidney replied, buckling himself into his car. He paused, then added in a measured tone, “Next time, if you ever need anything, don’t hesitate to call me.”

“Sure.”
