Chapter 15: Leaving the pack

Inez felt her body jerk forward and slam on the ground. Because she had been unprepared for this sudden attack, she didn’t even have the time to stop herself from hitting the gravel. Her chin smashed on the hard ground and Inez tasted blood.

How delightful. This was just the thing she needed. She turned around and looked at the woman who had pushed her and frowned when she found it was none other than Helen. Though the woman was a powerful enforcer under Luca, she was also a skilled stalker.

There was this incident where Inez had caught this woman staring at Luca in the middle of the night with infrared goggles. But why was she—

Oh.

Inez gritted her teeth when she realised how perfectly she had been schemed against.

Luca must have known that Helen was watching them, and he must also know about her feelings, which was why he used Helen against Inez.

She marvelled over how that man could make Helen do his dirty work without even saying a single word. No wonder it took so long for Inez to find out that the man was behind the bullying as well.

She masked her pain and tried to get up from the ground; the pain due to her bad fall made Inez wince but what made her wince harder was Helen catching hold of her hair and pulling her hard.

"Was it fun? Did you think it was funny? I told you about my feelings, Inez!" Helen screamed so hard that her voice cracked and Inez had to close her eyes to stop herself from physically flinching.

She looked at her as if Inez had betrayed their friendship but honestly, they had no such relationship. At most—

This woman had indeed told her about the feelings that she had for Luca and had once asked Inez to help her deliver a love letter to Luca when they were fourteen. She had done that but Inez didn’t know whether Luca had bothered to write a reply or not.
