"Well well well, if it isn't the bitchiest bitch of the century," I said, sauntering towards her as I lifted my sunglasses above my head. I scanned Fiona from head to toe as I stood in front of her. Clearly, she hadn't been doing well in life and I knew that Julian was the one behi used to have. She wasn't dripping in designer clothes as she once used to and the pelty part in me couldn't help but ginat. The woman before me destroyed me in numerous ways and I wasn't going to forgive her for anything that she had ever done to me. If 1 could add more salt to h "You should have invited your stepsister to your daughter's birthday party. Isn't she my niece after all!" She smirked and it took everything in me not to slap her. "Where's she by the way?" I watched as she scanned the place and the moment her eyes fell on my daughter, she turned to walk towards her. I wrapped my hand around her arm, intending to let my nails sink into her flesh. She yelped and tried to move my only yanked it hard and forced her to look at me. hand away, but I

"Take a step towards her and I won't hesitate to bury you alive right where you're standing." I threatened. I wasn't the naive girl she used to walk over. Either she wasn't aware of how strong I had become, or she was just in denial. "Look at you.

Fiona laughed, but it was obvious that she was nervous, I liked how I was making her nervous. "You've finally learned how to fight."

"And trust me, you don't want to test my skills. I let go of her arm but gave her a push that made her stumble backwards.

"It's obvious that you're not welcome here, Fiona What are you doing here?" I felt Julian's presence before hearing his voice. I was strong enough to fight Fiona on my own but having him by my side made me feel stronger. "You're pathetic, Julian. You're still running after her even though it's obvious that she doesn't want you. I feel sorry for you, but what can I say? I like the fact that I was the one who managed to pull you two apart," I wasn't sure how Julian was feeling, but personally, I was fuming, I didn't like how she spoke to him. I knew that Fiona hit a nerve, and

I didn't want him to falter before her, so I acted recklessly, not thinking about anything or anyone else but him. I smirked and tilted my head to the side and turned to Julian and crashed my lips into his. I could feel his surprise, but it didn't take him long to kiss me back

When I pulled away, I mouthed Sorry to him before turning back to the bitch whose mouth was open in shock. "I think I broke the news to you. Julian and I are dating." I loved how stunned she looked. She didn't expect that and neither did L. but I wasn't going to let her hu didn't know why I felt the need to protect him from any pain

Julian wrapped his arm around my waist, and I instantly leaned towards him, playing the part. His touch made me realize how much I missed him.

I longed for how good it felt to be held by him. "What brought you here, Fiona? I'm certain you aren't invited." Julian's voice held the sort of strength I always wanted him to have

"Enlighten me, please. What did I exactly do?" I folded my arms over my chest.

"Because of you, my life is over! I can't get any modeling deal. Jeffrey can no longer sustain the lifestyle he used to provide us with! I can't even get any respectable man to date me" I looked at Julan, knowing that he was behind it all and it took a lot of strength to prevent myself from laughing.

"Correction, you can't get any rich man to date you, because they know what will happen to them if they do," Julian spoke. My speculations were

"You have her back! I want my life back!" she yelled. She thought that by coming here and causing a scene we would give her what she wanted, but she was absolutely wrong. I looked around and surely, people were starting to notice what was going on. Did somebodys "This is simply karma, Fiona. Did you think that I was going to let you live peacefully after destroying my love life! I'm going to make you pay for what you've done until your last breath. 1 lost five years with the love of my
