Moreover, Tracy in front of her was just a stranger, someone Valda didnât know, so she didnât want to talk too much with these people.
âI donât think I need to explain myself to you,â she said coldly.
âYouâre feeling guilty, arenât you? If thereâs nothing to hide, why canât you talk about it?â
âAbsolutely!â
The two companions were mocking Valda with sarcasm and insults.
Tracy turned to Valda and said, âThereâs nothing that canât be talked about with others. I think itâs not just our curiosity, but also many people will be curious when Brian introduces you to the media in the future. Although Brian is not in the entertainment industry, the news media and the public are very interested in him.
Since you are Brianâs fiancée, itâs better to clarify the situation when he went missing earlier, so as to avoid being criticized by some haters!â
âThis is not your concern, Miss Barlow,â Valda said, too lazy to argue with the three people. She turned around and walked away, intending to find Brian.
As Valda lifted her foot to take a step, one of Tracyâs female companions behind her intentionally stuck out her foot and tripped Valda.
Valda fell to the ground in a clumsy manner with a loud âbangâ.
The woman had a smug smile on her lips and spoke in a affected tone, âOh my, how did you fall?
Couldnât you stand firm? Shall I give you a hand?â
Valda felt a dull pain where she had fallen, and as a result, several people around her turned to look.
Valda was about to stand up when suddenly Tracyâs voice sounded, âHey, why are the soles of your shoes so strange?â
Suddenly, everyoneâs attention was drawn to Valdaâs shoes.
Due to the fall, her shoes are now exposed in front of everyone.
Immediately, Tracyâs companion behind her burst into laughter, âHer shoes, one sole is thick and the other is thin, could it be that thereâs something wrong with her legs?â
âIs it a limp in the leg?â
âOh my god, I hope Brian isnât in the dark about this!â
âThis woman is so scheming, I hope she didnât deceive Brian too!â
As these women set the tone, people around them began to discuss it.
Valdaâs face turned pale. She didnât mind others knowing about her leg problem, but being mocked in such a way in front of everyone was something she hadnât expected.
She instinctively tucked her feet under her skirt and tried to stand up, but Tracy and her friends deliberately blocked her and wouldnât let her get up.
Tracy even said, âIf you have a problem with your legs, you should let others know. How can you deceive people with those shoes? Are you being hypocritical? Does Brian know about this?!â
Valda knew that Tracy and her friends wanted more people to know about her leg problem.
âLet me get up!â Valda struggled to say.
âYou shouldnât deceive Brian like this. You should let Brian see your shoes too!â Tracy said.
Meanwhile, her two companions kept obstructing Valda from standing up. One of them accidentally stepped on Valdaâs hand with her fancy shoes.
âAh!â Valda cried out in pain.
The other person pretended to be surprised and said, âOh dear, what happened? Sorry, I stepped on you!â
Valda bit her lip, not wanting to embarrass herself further in front of these people.
Her embarrassment would only please these people.
