Lily Grant: "Oh, please! If I had told you back then that I secretly contacted Lucas Morgan, you would have skinned me alive! Don't make yourself out to be so noble, okay?"
"No way, I'm so noble it's almost making me cry."
Chloe Grant retorted unceremoniously and continued, "Calling me so late isn't just to boast about how close you and Lucas are, is it? I bet your stern dad, my dear uncle, gave you a lecture again, didn't he?"
"You...!"
Chloe's words left Lily speechless on the other end.
As expected.
"Poor thing, uncle has a bad temper. You didn't get hit, did you? Oh, my dad, even if he scolds me, he can't really do anything to me over the phone, right?"
Chloe admitted that while she said these things, she surprised even herself with her brazenness!
"Don't be so smug!" Lily gritted her teeth.
Chloe laughed, wanting nothing more than Lily's discomfort!
Only Lily is allowed to play innocent and outsmart everyone, does she think I can't?
