hapter 49 Monica grinned and walked off with Evelyn . Evelyn's buddy was a guy in his forties , but he was out of the country , so Evelyn just took her along . They chatted while shopping . After a bit , Evelyn said , " That tea set we saw earlier was quite nice . " Yeah , it's pretty . " Monica went back , picked up the small green teapot , and felt its smooth , delicate texture . Under the light , it sparkled like it had just rained , looking more beautiful the longer she stared at it . Monica made up her mind right away . " I'll take this one . " She was about to call the salesperson when suddenly a loud voice rang out beside her , " I'll take this one . " The voice sounded familiar to Monica . She looked over and saw a familiar face . After a moment , she remembered that this woman was Diana Scott , Layla's younger brother's daughter . So , she was actually Monica's cousin . But she had always sided with Stella . Ten years ago , when Monica had just returned to the Brown family , Stella was scared Monica would steal the affection that was originally hers , so she made things tough for Monica in every way possible . At first , Layla was willing to believe Monica , but Diana , who stood by Stella , spoke negatively about Monica . Layla really loved Diana , so when Diana and Stella teamed up , Layla decisively chose to trust them . So , Diana had a hand in Monica being rejected by her parents and ending up in her current situation . Now , they were together again .. Stella looked at Monica , pretending to be all gentle and gracious , and greeted her . " Monica , you're here shopping too ? " Diana then recognized Monica and looked at her in disbelief . Was this confident and radiant woman the same bumpkin she used to know ? A malicious look flashed in her eyes , but unlike Stella's fake niceness , she didn't bother hiding it . She Chapter 49 smiled maliciously and said , " It's you , Monica . No wonder you looked familiar . " Monica didn't plan to pay them any attention and directly told the salesperson , " Wrap this up for me . " Okay . " The salesperson nodded , took the tea set and packaging box from the display case , and was about to wrap it up . Diana shouted , " Wait ! " The salesperson , not knowing what was going on , paused and looked at her . Diana said , " I saw this tea set first . Why should it go to her ? Wrap it up for me ! " The salesperson hesitated . The items here were all unique , and in this situation , she didn't know what to do . But she could tell that these two parties had a grudge . The salesperson had no choice but to remain silent and stand aside . Diana looked at Monica with disdain , raised her chin , and said arrogantly , " Monica , first come , first served . " Monica immediately laughed . Before she could speak , Evelyn couldn't hold back anymore . She pulled Monica behind her , faced Diana , and said unceremoniously , " You just came in , I was here long before you . " " You were were here earlier , so why didn't you buy it earlier ? " " You ... " " I think you just don't have the money to buy it , right ? " Diana sneered . " What did you ..." Evelyn was about to say something , but Monica grabbed her hand , looked at Diana , and raised the teapot with a sneer . " This teapot's in my hand now . Do you really think yelling like a lunatic will make it yours ? " Diana didn't expect Monica to be so sharp - tongued and instantly got furious . She screamed , " Are you calling me a lunatic ? " " Aren't you ? " Monica laughed . " Mind our words , " Stella chimed in . " You're Stella , right ? " Evelyn turned to her , smiling but with clear disdain . " We didn't want to bother with you , but you insisted on getting close . I have a cleanliness obsession and can't stand it . I heard you , the Brown family's daughter , farted in public at the Johnson Group's party . It was so smelly that everyone 214 Chapter 49 wondered , how could Ms. Brown be so stinky ? Do you eat crap regularly ? " Monica couldn't help but laugh . Some other customers in the store laughed too . After all , Stella's incident was too embarrassing and had spread throughout Emerald City . Stella couldn't explain it , and Evelyn's words were too blunt . Stella turned red with anger . After Evelyn finished , she fanned herself with her hand , looking disgusted . " Just the thought of it makes me feel nauseous . " " I'll kill you , you bitch ! " Diana lunged at her . But before she could touch Evelyn , Monica grabbed her wrist and coldly said , " You dare to hit my friend ? " " Monica , who do you think you are ? Let go .. Before Diana could finish her curse , Monica twisted her wrist , and Diana cried out in pain , " Monica , let go of me , or you'll regret it ! " Monica couldn't help but laugh . " You're in my hands , and you still dare to threaten me ? " She twisted Diana's wrist outward . Diana immediately screamed , " It hurts , Monica , let go , it hurts ! " " You feel pain ? " Monica snorted , " I thought you were tough as nails . " " Stella , help me , " Diana couldn't bear the pain and urgently called for Stella . Stella took a step forward , about to speak , but Evelyn blocked her way . But she spoke coldly to Diana , " If Stella can't even defend herself , how is she going to protect you ? " Stella was speechless , only able to glare venomously at Evelyn and Monica . These two bitches , one with words and one with actions , were too powerful . She and Diana were no match for them . Monica released Diana's wrist , but as soon as she let go , she slapped Diana's face and coldly said , " Diana , people should have some self - awareness . If it weren't for the Brown family , how would the Scott family have its current status ? And you dare to act arrogant in front of me ? Consider this a lesson . In the future , if you see me on the street , stay far away from me , got it ? Disgusting ! " If they hadn't insisted on approaching her , Monica wouldn't have bothered with them . Evelyn handed her a tissue . " Monica , wipe your hand , don't let these two dirty it . " 3/4 3:45 pm P Chapter 49 ppp Monica took it , and they smiled at each other . Diana , already beaten , didn't dare to approach again , but she kept shouting , Monica , you bitch , how dare you hit me ? I'll kill you ? Chapter Comments LIKE Write Comments
