Hearing everyone's blessings felt like a thousand knives stabbing my heart, leaving me breathless.
Randy, clearly tipsy and with a flushed face, clung to Max's arm, rambling on.
"Max, I always knew you and Rebecca were meant to be! If it weren't for Violet getting in the way, you two would've had your second kid by now!
"Good thing that bitch ran off! Now you two can be together!"
Hearing my former apprentice speak of me like this broke my heart.
Rebecca put on a fake concerned expression and said, "Randy, you shouldn't say that. She was your mentor, after all."
Randy scoffed and spat on the ground.
"A criminal like her? I'm disgusted to even call her my mentor!
"Rebecca, you were so kind to her despite all the pain she caused you. You're too nice!"
When he mentioned the accident from years ago, Randy became furious.
Rolling up his sleeves, he declared, "If I ever find that bitch, Violet, I'll break her legs myself and get revenge for you, Rebecca!"
