Chapter 129 Mr. Martin is Smiling at You

Sophia's dissatisfaction grew more intense. She began to mercilessly disparage Chloe. "That girl has a face full of freckles and a big mole on her cheek-she's utterly hideous. She's so skinny, barely any flesh anywhere, especially her chest-it's so flat you can't find it. Other women have chests to attract men, but hers is just to tell her front from her back."

She added, "And her legs, oh, they move in the funniest way, like a crab, all wobbly and awkward. Forget her looks, her temperament is even worse she's got a nasty attitude, cussing people out at the drop of a hat, just like a shrew. You all saw the news, right? Last night, she got jealous for no reason and ended up hitting Michael."

Sophia stated, "I heard from Grant that Mr. Michael Martin wouldn't have stepped up to squash those rumors about them being a couple if it weren't for the pressure from their elders. That woman is just the worst. ""Grant said if she ever tried to pull something in front of him, he wouldn't hesitate to put her in her place. What 'Miss Davis Family'? She's just a joke."

Sophia was a pro at badmouthing Chloe. She could use the nastiest words to describe Chloe and even dragged Grant into it to make her gossip seem more believable. She kept dropping Grant's name, making everyone think they were super tight.

Upon hearing Sophia's words, several people displayed expressions of surprise. Although they didn't completely believe her, the fact that Sophia repeatedly mentioned Grant lent her statements a semblance of credibility.

Sophia didn't even bother to lower her voice while she was saying all this. Little did she know, Philip was standing not far away, recording everything on his phone.

When Chloe arrived in the Martin Family's car, Philip quietly pulled her aside. "Chloe, why are you so late?"

Chloe quickly apologized, "I was a bit tired and overslept. Sorry about that. Did I miss anything?"

Philip hurriedly said, "Yeah, you missed a lot. Look, I recorded it for you. Chloe, that loudmouth over there, what did you do to piss her off?"

Philip pointed to where Sophia was standing.

Chloe frowned. "I didn't do anything to her."
