NovelBookChapter 0338 ANASTASIA Clara's face turned to the side with the impact of the resounding slap that I just landed on her cheeks.
She reeled backward, clutched her face and stared at the floor for a long while, That slap was the very least of all the things I wanted to do to her. I was literally holding myself back from hurling insults at her as I beat her up. But what would that do? Absolutely nothing. What had happened has happened, it was now in the past.

A pretender? You smile atbut deep down you hatefor," I made air quotes with my fingers, "taking Aiden away from you." Clara remained there, saying nothing.
"Clara, how could you? You were my friend! I confided in you. I told you everything, I sought your advice in literally everything I did." I tipped my head back and looked up at the sky as I attempted to stop my tears from falling. Not here, not before her, no.

I laughed out loud, “I had been a damned fool, hadn't I?” I shok my head, "Clara why? Why would you do that? You were like my second skin." "No," she finally spoke up. Her voice was quiet but I didn't miss the venom that dripped from her tone. I looked down at her face and the look there frightened me.

Why did you ever ask what was between us when you saw him and realized you knew him? You flirted with him right in my presence!" She gripped her hair and turned around, turning her back tobut I glimpsed the watering her eyes, the one she was desperately holding back.
"Are you being serious right now? How was I supposed to know? You should've just told me."
She turned sharply and laughed sarcastically, tears running down her om cheeks, "Oh what do you expectto say to my best friend that was in Stormy love? Perhaps, I should go like, 'Anastasia, I have something to tell you. The man you're actually in love with is the man I also love and I want you to leave him for me.' How about that!"
