Chapter 2135
Clara paced in the cell like a caged lioness, frustration boiling over with every step. She had heard that someone was coming to see her, and she half-expected it to be her dad with a lawyer in tow. She couldn’t stand one more minute in this godforsaken police station.
“How come you took so long to show up? Didn’t you know I’ve been cooped up in here? Do you even consider your daughter anymore? Why aren’t you worried at all?” she vented the moment she was brought to the visiting room.
But her rant screeched to a halt when she locked eyes with Ivy, who was impeccably dressed in a designer suit that screamed money. With one glance, Clara knew that outfit cost a pretty penny. She had ogled it online with her fellow actresses so many times, yet it remained a distant dream, lounging in her shopping cart because it was way out of her league.
It must be that man who splurged on Ivy!
“What are you doing here? Came to rub your fancy man in my face?” Clara said with a sneer.
“Why on earth would you think that? When have I ever flaunted anything to you? It’s always been you bragging about the new clothes and the latest iPhone your parents showered on you. That’s your game, not mine,” Ivy retorted with an unnerving calm. Their relationship had always been lopsided, but Ivy’s mere presence was enough to trigger Clara into accusing her of showing
off.
Clara slammed her hand on the table, leaning forward aggressively, only to be checked by the handcuffs binding her wrists. “You dare say you’re not flaunting? Dressed to the nines just to make me look bad, huh? Ivy, I swear, I could rip your mouth off! If it weren’t for you, all of this should have been mine!”
