Chapter 272 Party Pooper
“Mia, do I look like someone who lets things slide after being played?” Josh’s words left Mia speechless, momentarily at a loss for words. Indeed, it had been he insistence on drinking last night, drunkenly causing chaos on top of him.
Although many details were blurred by the alcohol, the scene where she had him under her in bed, behaving recklessly, was vividly etched in her mind, earrassingly clear.
Ah, I can’t think about that. Just thinking about it makes me want to slap myself. I was really starved, starved enough to end up sleeping with a gay guy.
Mia turned her head away, unable to look Josh in the eyes.
“I… didn’t mean to
Josh didn’t believe her tall tale for a second; last night, in her drunken state, she had confessed her feelings to him, claiming it was love at first sight. No wonder she had been so forward in bed; she must have been eyeing him for a long time.
To be honest, it was also his first time experiencing something so wild.
All day today, his mind had been filled with images of their entanglement from the night before, making it impossible to focus on work.
But the main culprit didn’t want to take responsibility.
He wouldn’t have it. Josh suddenly leaned down and kissed Mia on the lips.
Mia, startled by his sudden move, widened her eyes about to struggle when she heard footsteps and voices outside, clearly indicating someone was entering the restroom.
Mia panicked inside, signaling Josh with her eyes that someone was coming and to let her go quickly.
But Josh, intent on teasing her, not only did not let go, but his hand also slipped under her clothing. wandering freely.
Mia’s heart raced, barely daring to make a sound for fear of being discovered by the people outside.
The footsteps got closer, turning towards another stall, followed by a conversation.
“I think I just saw Lauren.”
“Wasn’t she in prison?”
“She must be out by now.”
“Tsk, who would have thought? The former top student of Hoverdale First High School, committing murder deliberately. People really aren’t what they appear to be; she seemed so quiet in high school, but it
was all an act“.
“What good does being a top student do? She’s nothing but a convict now.”
“Back in high school, she was so arrogant because of her good grades. Even the hottest guy in our class

“Tomorrow’s our high school reunion. Who would have thought the class hunk is now the most successful among us, already a sales manager at Brooker Corpora on.”
“If Lauren knew, wouldn’t she be regretting it to death?
“Definitely. With her status as a convict now, she’s not even worthy of carrying his shoes. By the way. Lauren isn’t in the group chat, she probably doesn’t know about the reunion. Should we invite her?”
“Yes, I can’t wait to see her face when she sees how successful the class hunk is now, and her regret.”
“Hahaha-”
The two girls mocked Lauren mercilessly.
Mia heard every word, clenching her fists, wanting nothing more than to storm over there and beat up those two gossipy women.
But Josh held her back, and she couldn’t break free.
Only after the two women left did Mia no longer hold back her anger. “Josh, let go of me.”
Josh did not let go, inhaling the fragrance from her hair, finding it addictive. Mia, annoyed, lifted her leg and struck him hard below the belt.
“Ugh!” Josh groaned in pain, his face contorting immediately.
“Mia, are you trying to murder your own husband?”
Mia didn’t even listen to him, flinging open the stall door and chasing after the women, shouting, “You two backstabbing wenches, stop right there, I’ll kill you.”
Josh fell silent. What a crazy woman.
However, by the time Mia burst out of the restroom, the two women were nowhere to be seen.
She strode determinedly towards the restaurant, her heart unwilling to let it go.
When she reached the restaurant, she saw two garishly dressed women standing in front of Lauren, saying something.
She wanted to stride over and slap each of them, but in front of Lauren and her mother, she had to play the good girl.
So, she suppressed her anger, straightened her disheveled clothes, and then walked towards Lauren.
But before she could get close, the two women turned and walked away.
“Laurie, what did those two say to you?”
