Bab 26: Breaking the Silence    

BaAaMm!

I slammed the door open, the sound echoing like thunder in the bathroom as I stepped out, my gaze locking onto the four women huddled by the mirror.

Their laughter died in their throats as they turned to face me, stunned into silence.

I squared my shoulders, chin high, and walked right up to them, each step deliberate.

"Got something to say to my face?" I said, voice cold and beamed sarcastically. "Go on, don't be shy. Continue your conversation."

This time, I wasn't backing down.

Sophie's face went pale, her usual confidence faltering as she stammered. "E-Eve . . . how long have you been there?"

I flashed her a sweet smile, but my voice was ice-cold. "Long enough to hear you spinning lies about me, claiming I made a spectacle of myself to dance with Cole last week."
