#Chapter 147: Humiliation

Moana

“Ugh! I can’t believe you!” Sam’s new girlfriend shouted, causing Edrick and I to run over to the scene while a group of other intrigued employees gathered around as well. “You’re a cheater!”

“Baby, it’s not what it—”

Slap.

Sam’s face went red with a mixture of embarrassment and redness from the hard slap that his girlfriend gave him. A chorus of gasps and confused mutters erupted amongst the people who had gathered around, and meanwhile, Mia only stood leaning against a tree with a subtle smirk on her face. Her eyes finally met mine and Edrick’s, and she winked.

I knew then that she had accomplished what Edrick had essentially hired her to do: she had made Sam betray his new girlfriend. I wondered if his new girlfriend even knew that he cheated on me to be with her, or if he just brushed me off as some crazy lady who he didn’t even know when I found them in the restaurant that day.

Either way, Edrick was right. Once a cheater, always a cheater.

“You know, you wouldn’t even have this job if it wasn’t for me,” his girlfriend, a Beta, said with a scowl. “I can’t believe you would pull a stunt like this. We are over!”

With that, Sam’s new girlfriend — well, ex-girlfriend now — turned on her heel and stormed off.
