Chapter 33\u00a0<\/p>\n
When Sienna heard Michelle\u2019s voice, she felt worried and immediately got up to head to the restroom.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A crowd of curious diners had already gathered outside the door. The manager was awkwardly trying to disperse them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cEveryone, please return to your seats. This is just a small misunderstanding between the ladies.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna squeezed into the restroom, and the scene before her made her freeze for a second.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michelle and Melody were gripping each other\u2019s hair tightly, locked in a standoff like two cats with their fur standing on end.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLet go!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou let go first!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you don\u2019t let go, I won\u2019t!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFine! Then none of us let go!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna\u2019s first thought was how typical it was for women to end up pulling each other\u2019s hair whenever they fought.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She hurried over to break it up, pretending to be anxious. \u201cHey, stop it! Don\u2019t fight! Please stop fighting!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As she spoke, she accidentally stepped on Melody\u2019s foot. Amid the chaos, her hand smacked Melody\u2019s hand several times.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But Michelle and Melody were in a deadlock. Neither showed any sign of stopping.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI think that\u2019s enough!\u201d Clayton\u2019s cold voice rang out from the doorway.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Both women immediately let go like they had been shocked. Sienna seized the chance to shove Melody aside and rushed to check on Michelle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her hair was a total rat\u2019s nest. There were several glaring red marks across her neck, and there were bloody scratches on her\u00a0<\/p>\n
arms.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHow did you end up fighting her? Did she start it?\u201d Sienna asked with concern as she tidied Michelle\u2019s hair.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before Michelle could answer, Melody covered her face and cried pitifully, \u201cClay, she hit me first! The moment I came in, she started yelling at me. Then, she pushed me and told me that I should I know my place. She warned me to stay away from Sienna, or she\u2019d make my life hell.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s a lie! It was you who started it!\u201d Michelle stomped her feet in anger.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Clayton\u2019s swept an icy gaze over Michelle. \u201cShe went to the restroom, and you followed right after. Don\u2019t you think that\u2019s a little too coincidental?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Under his intense stare, Michelle felt her scalp tingle. She was momentarily speechless. \u201cI\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSince Sienna refuses to apologize, you should at least apologize, shouldn\u2019t you? There\u2019s a limit to pranking people. You two really are worthy of being best friends,\u201d Clayton pressed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The pressure made Michelle shrink back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna immediately stepped in front of her and spoke up indignantly to protect her. \u201cMr. Hale, even favoritism should have its limits. Mich merely went to the restroom like any normal person would, and you\u2019re sure she\u2019s to be blamed for everything?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou haven\u2019t even figured out what happened, and you\u2019re already demanding apologies. Apologize this, apologize that\u2026 Did you build your company on apologies? Do you feel physically uncomfortable if you don\u2019t hear someone say sorry?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you love apologies that much, have someone record one for you so you can listen to it every day at home.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIf your eyesight\u2019s failing, go book an appointment with an ophthalmologist. Just look at the injuries. You can tell who got it worse,\u201d Clayton snapped, pointing at the wounds on Melody\u2019s face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Placing a hand on Michelle\u2019s stomach, Sienna countered solemnly, \u201cSays who? Mich may be suffering from internal injuries. I\u2019m taking her to do a full-body check right now. And if anything is wrong with her, I won\u2019t let Melody off either!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
With that, she grabbed Michelle and started to walk out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, Clayton reached out to block them. \u201cAre you really going this far to take her side?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna lifted her chin, refusing to back down. \u201cSo what if I am? At most, it\u2019s mutual assault. Calling the police won\u2019t do you any good. A word of advice-you\u2019d better not do anything despicable, or I won\u2019t let you off either.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Clayton looked like he had just heard the funniest joke.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A smile crept onto his lips as he drawled, \u201cOh? And how exactly do you plan on not letting me off?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll deal with it when the time comes!\u201d Sienna slapped his hand away and strode off with Michelle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The moment they stepped out of the restaurant, Sienna pinched Michelle\u2019s cheek. \u201cTell me the truth. Did you hit her first?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHow did you know?\u201d Michelle grinned sheepishly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna rolled her eyes. \u201cThe second you stick your butt out, I already know what kind of fart you\u2019re about to let loose. Every time you feel guilty, you start yelling that the other party is lying.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michelle hooked her arm through Sienna\u2019s and said through clenched teeth, \u201cThat disgusting wench had it coming. I was just warning her to stay away from you, but she called me a fat pig. Then, she said I was ugly as hell back in high school, and it was no wonder nobody wanted to be friends with me. She even said I\u2019m being pathetic by being your lackey now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As she continued recounting what just happened, she rolled up her sleeves animatedly. \u201cHow could I let that slide, Sienna? I shoved her, of course. Then, she went all out on my neck. So, I scratched her face back. We were evenly matched, but I didn\u2019t let her get the upper hand. I even yanked out more than a dozen strands of her hair.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna fixed Michelle\u2019s tangled hair and advised helplessly, \u201cDon\u2019t do this again. You messed with Clayton\u2019s precious darling. He won\u2019t let you off. What if he makes things hard for you later?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat about that steak just now? Was that really an accident?\u201d Michelle asked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna smiled slightly and replied, \u201cYeah. Who asked her to sit right across from me? My hand just slipped. I was cutting into the steak hard, and it flew off.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Melody was still standing still with one trembling hand covering her cheek. Her carefully styled hair was disheveled. Sauce stains and water marred her white dress. She was a complete mess.<\/p>\n
