Chapter 173
\nThree Years Later, He Came Back Begging novel Chapter 173<\/p>\n
Ned trailed after them, catching Helen\u2019s eye and whispering, \u201cShe never drinks. If she goes through with this, she\u2019s just going to end up sick.\u201d<\/p>\n
Helen let out a long sigh. \u201cLet her. She\u2019s had so much on her plate lately. Sometimes you just have to let it out. Bonnie hasn\u2019t really let herself cry in forever. Even when she does, she hides it so nobody notices, like she\u2019s scared to show any weakness. If she gets a little drunk, maybe she\u2019ll finally let it all go. And once she\u2019s cried it out, maybe tomorrow she\u2019ll have the guts to face everything again.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll stay with her. However much it takes, I\u2019m not leaving.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ned offered a few worried reminders, then saw Bonnie finish paying. He went over, grabbed the two heavy grocery bags from her, and headed out the door.<\/p>\n
Bonnie and Helen lagged behind. As they stepped outside, they didn\u2019t notice the group of girls that suddenly burst out from the shadows to surround them.<\/p>\n
The girl at the front looked young, dressed in a white puffer coat. She pointed right at Bonnie, her voice full of attitude. \u201cYou\u2019re Bonnie, aren\u2019t you? We\u2019ve been waiting for you all night. Finally showed up.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bonnie glanced at the paper bags these girls were clutching, noticing Hannah\u2019s face printed on the sides. There was even a rolled-up poster poking out.<\/p>\n
Bonnie just stared at them, feeling a mix of disbelief and exhaustion. She couldn\u2019t make sense of their logic. \u201cI was never their third wheel. Three years ago, Lawrence and I were officially together. Hannah is the one who came between us. Now, I\u2019m trying to stay as far away as possible. Everything being said online\u2014I\u2019ll hold those people responsible. And as for Hannah, I\u2019m not backing down. I\u2019ll take this to court and let the law clear my name.\u201d<\/p>\n
The girls just laughed, like they\u2019d heard the funniest thing all night. The one in white rolled her eyes so hard it was almost theatrical. \u201cYou actually think anyone will buy that? Posting some lawyer\u2019s statement online doesn\u2019t prove you\u2019re so innocent. There\u2019s no smoke without fire. If you were really so pure, would Hannah have needed to kneel in front of you at all? Do you know who she is? For her to kneel to someone like you\u2026 you really think she\u2019d do that if she had any choice?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNow she\u2019s getting married\u2014they\u2019ve shown everyone where they stand. Yet you have the nerve to call Hannah the homewrecker? You really have no shame.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-841","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/841","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=841"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
