Chapter 179: It's Not Exactly Rumor (Part 1)

Amalia halted and turned around, saying, "Your friend is right. Don't come near me from now on."

"But I can't do that!" Isabella Xiao blurted out, "Amalia, you're my friend too. How can I watch you being isolated just for my sake?"

Amalia didn't feel disappointed; she always believed there was no unfounded kindness, "Then follow your friend's advice. Goodbye."
