Goodbye, My Love

“I don’t give a damn about you and your so-called man. If you hadn’t appeared in front of me, I wouldn’t have said a word to you. You are delusional,

Keely. Seek help!”

Keely snorted.

“Do you take me for a fool, Loraine? I know you want

Marco. Get your eyes off my man. I’m the only woman who deserves him!”

“Keely, don’t you understand all that I have been saying?” Loraine let out an evil laugh.

“Well, I get it now. It seems desperation has beclouded your sense of reasoning. You are still stuck in the position of mistress even though I have divorced that scum. Oh, what a pity!”

This comment made Keely remember how she was called a mistress and home-wrecker some weeks back. Her old fury mixed with the new one. The simmering resentment blew up.

“Loraine, you bitch! It’s all because of you! My life will be just perfect if you disappear from this world!”

Keely pounced on Loraine as soon as she finished speaking.

Things took an unexpected turn afterward. When Keely withdrew her hands, she staggered and fell backward.

Everything happened with the speed of light. Loraine could only watch

Keely fall down the stairs and Landed on the floor heavily.

There was an uproar in the hall as soon as the guests heard that loud thud.

“Ah! Someone fell down the stairs!”

“It’s Keely Haywood!”

Amidst the concerned screams, Marco rushed forward and held Keely in his arms.

“Marco, it hurts…”

Keely Lay in his arms weakly. There were tears in her red eyes.

“What happened?” Marco asked, hugging her tightly.

Keely looked up the stairs. The next second, she lowered her eyes and replied timidly, “I tried to apologize to Loraine, but it seems she doesn’t want to forgive me. Anyway, it’s all my fault. I understand that she’s still mad at me. Please don’t blame her. I’m fine.”

It appeared like Keely was preventing Loraine from being blamed, but every word and action of hers implied that it was Loraine who pushed her down the stairs.
