Chapter 34 Gossip
Caroline didn't understand why did her roommate slander her. Was it really because she was unbearable and disgusting?
A trace of miserable smile appeared in the corners of her mouth.
She silently gave Madison a look, which might not have any special meaning, but might mean "realization". Turning around, Caroline slowly disappeared from Madison's sight with her lame foot.
Madison was as uncomfortable and angry as being seized by the throat. She tightly clenched her fists hanging down beside her thighs indignantly, staring at the back of the lame woman.
She didn't understand why such a poor woman behaved so arrogantly in front of her!
Caroline!
Why was she so haughty!
A cripple!
A poor wretch who fawned for money!
An ugly woman who seduced men without good appearance and figure!
Madison remembered Antonio's charming and handsome face. She felt more resentful from the bottom of her heart. It was Caroline who seduced Mr. Tucker actively!
Some people had been watching Madison and Caroline, until Caroline left. All the people around witnessed Madison's behavior.
Although she was unpopular now, people loving gossiping could suppress temporary disgust and asked with ulterior motives, "Madison, what's going on? Why did you come into conflict with her again?"
"She" naturally referred to Caroline.
Hearing this, Madison was angry and sneered. "I won't condescend to argue with a tease."
When people next to her heard the word "tease", there was a glow, an exaltation in their eyes. Something interesting happened!
"Hey, who is the tease? Caroline?"
Madison nodded her head. "I just saw her and Mr. Tucker hugging each other in the stairwell."
Mr. Tucker?
This name raised a thousand ripples!
"Mr. Tucker? Antonio Tucker?" Someone exclaimed out loud, "No way! He is the most eligible bachelor who is wealthy, handsome and tasteful. How could he take a fancy to a cleaner?"
"I saw them hugging and kissing in the stairwell with my own eyes." A trace of jealousy flashed in Madison's eyes.
Why?
That woman was ugly and lame without academic qualifications. She could do anything for money. Why could such a nasty woman stand high in Mr. Tucker's favor?
Madison had forgotten the goodness of Caroline.
"It is impossible to judge a person's heart from her face. I live in the same dormitory with her. She was a taciturn cleaner at that time. I thought she was a nice person. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
I didn't expect her to be so shameless. Living in the same dormitory and breathing the same air with her every day, I almost vomit! "
"Caroline is of bad character."
"Shut up!" Just then, there came a voice. "You guys have nothing to do? You have forgotten Gianna and Laurel's bad end?"
It was Annie, the waitress with the longest seniority in Royal Club!
When Madison saw Annie, she immediately remembered that it was Annie who embarrassed her in front of so many people and told Grace not to talk to her. Annie was her opponent!
"I know that someone have been working in Royal Club for a long time, so she is pompous and likes to criticize others. Don't forget that she is just a waitress." Madison graduated from Lehcaster University, so her words were acerbic and sharp.
Annie didn't give Madison a look, sneering to others. "I can be a good reminder for the last time. Don't follow in the footsteps of Gianna and Laurel. Gook luck to you."
After that, she turned and left. When walking to the corner, she could still hear the gossip behind.
"Annie thinks too highly of herself. She always mentioned Gianna and Laurel in front of us. They violated the taboo of Royal Club. Everyone knows that the leadership hates staff sowing discord, but doesn't prohibit private competition.
Almost all the companies are the same as Royal Club. We're just chatting. It's unlikely for us to follow in the footsteps of Gianna and Laurel."
Annie at the corner shook her head secretly. Stubborn people wouldn't listen to reason.
Caroline seemed to be going to suffer again.
Annie was not going to snitch. Otherwise, it would affect herself.
In Royal Club, she had learned not to meddle in other's affairs long ago.
It was already her righteousness to persuade those people for the sake of camaraderie.
As for those who didn't take her exhortations, she said secretly, "Forget it. It's none of my business."
After work, it suddenly began to rain outside. At first, it was a light rain. Caroline walked back slowly every night.
Tonight, she still walked back to the dormitory.
There was a 24-hour convenience store opposite Royal Club. Caroline was standing in front of the cashier.
"It is eight dollars, miss." An umbrella was placed on the cashier's desk. Caroline looked at the umbrella, which was the cheapest one in this convenience store. Of course she had eight dollars in her wallet, but she still hesitated.
"Thank you. It suddenly occurred to me that the rain is not heavy, so I may not need this umbrella."
Out of the convenience store, Caroline wrapped her clothes tightly and curled herself up with bowed head, walking forward.
It was not raining heavily, so she didn't have a bad feeling. However, the left side of her waist would bring unbearable pain to her on rainy days.
When she was almost home, the rain began to pour down.
After arriving at the dormitory, she poked the key into the door and couldn't open it.
She tried again and turned the key, but she still couldn't get the door open.
Caroline was startled. Looking at the closed door, she gave a wry smile after being in a trance.
She and Madison were still living together in the dormitory. After that incident, they cared about their own businesses respectively, not crossing the line.
In fact, living in the same dormitory, either or them felt well. It was unclear whether the reason was Marissa forgetting to change the dormitory for them or the company thinking that the small contradiction between employees was not a big deal.
Since that day, Madison's attitude towards Caroline had changed greatly.
However, even if Madison dismissed her. Locking the door to prevent her from entering the house had never happened.
"Madison, Madison." Caroline wanted to call the person in the house to open the door. As soon as she shouted out, her voice stopped abruptly, and she lowered her head slowly. The woman inside had made up her mind not to let her get in, so Madison would pretend not to hear her if she shouted.
You could never wake up a person who pretended to sleep.
Standing at the door, Caroline looked up at the ceiling and whispered, "I have nowhere to go."
She turned her back to the door and slipped slowly, leaning against the door behind her. It was cold, so she wrapped her clothes more tightly.
Notwithstanding, her clothes were still wet and cold. She spent this night outside and fell asleep against the door.
