I look at her. "Michael thinks this way about me all because of you."
"Emily, we've known each other for so many years. I've never done anything to betray you. Why did you frame me and spread malicious rumors about me?"
Emily stands up, her expression is hideous.
"Mandy, do you know that I've hated you since I was a child? Why were you always better at studying than me? You're not as pretty as me, but you were more popular. Your parents loved you so much, while mine only beat and scolded me every day and said I was no match for you. From then on, I vowed that I would live a better life than you."
I was shocked.
Just because of these things, she is jealous of me. Her mind is darker and more terrifying than I have imagined.
I look at the gigolo beside her: "Michael has been good to you. Why did you cheat and be with this man?"
Emily snorts coldly: "You know nothing. Michael is too overbearing, bad-tempered and boring. I'm not happy at all being with him."
I continue to ask: "So you don't like him at all? You're with him just for the money?"
Emily sits back on the sofa, enjoying the massage from the gigolo.
"Of course. If Michael didn't have money, I wouldn't have married him. To me, he's just an ATM, nothing more!"
Michael's family runs a company and is wealthy. He grew up being flattered. Even though he liked Emily very much, he couldn't grovel to her.
On the contrary, when Emily is with him, she has to watch his face from time to time, serves him carefully, and she is afraid of making him angry. She also has to pretend to be gentle, considerate, and well-behaved in front of him.
But it is completely different when she is with the gigolo. The gigolo fawns over her and treats her like a queen. This kind of feeling is something Michael could never give her.
Emily looks at me: "Mandy, just mind your own business and don't say anything to Michael."
I smile: "Didn't you say that no matter what I say, Michael won't believe me? Then what are you afraid of?"
Emily's face suddenly turns vicious. She glances at the gigolo behind her and points at me, ordering: "Take her."
The gigolo nods and walks towards me. Suddenly, with a huge noise, the door of the private room is pushed open forcefully.
Michael steps in, his eyes burning with anger as he stares at Emily.
He has heard every word of my conversation with Emily.
Now that the truth was out, Emily's lies were exposed, and he also knew that I had been taking the blame all along.
When Emily sees Michael, she is so shocked that she freezes for a long time.
"Honey, I can explain. It's not what you think. Mandy is framing me. She tricked me here and asked this man to bully me. She wants to be with you, so she set up this trap. I'm innocent!"
She is trying to frame me again.
But this time, Michael doesn't make the mistake to believe her.
He raises his hand and slaps Emily. The slap is so hard that Emily froze. Before she could react, he chokes her neck.
Michael roars furiously: "You bitch! You deceived me! You used my money to keep a man outside but said it was Mandy borrowing money from you. You got pregnant with a bastard's child but lied to me that it was mine. I'll kill you!"
As he said that, he raises his fist and punches Emily again and again, showing no mercy.
