"Ummm... What is so special about her?" I asked.
"Do you really want to know that?" she said excitedly. "She is a piece of work! She thinks money is power! So she marries the rich men for money and then goes for the divorce. This is how she's getting richer and richer! This TikTok girl's dad... It's her fourth marriage! This girl showed the snippets from her diary to her Dad, but he's in love with her, so he didn't listen!" She rolled her eyes.
"Wait, what? Oh my God! Dodged a bullet! Phew!" Alice said incredulously.
I glared at her. She and I were going to have a word! She was being ridiculous now! It's like she had no respect for us!
'Dodged a bullet'? Really? She should know the girls would ask about it!
His family never had any respect for me anyway! The day we had decided to give our marriage a second chance, his mother and sisters had called me to tell me about how this was the 'best' decision I could have taken and it was best to 'forget and move on'! They didn't give a damn that I was betrayed!
I swear, I would have left him! The only reason I stayed was... The girls and also... him to some extent! I knew he wasn't really like them! He was... different. He... loved me. But he had betrayed me!
Damn! I was going back to the loop again!
"Who dodged a bullet?" Carlie asked, looking confused.
"One of Dad's friends dated her." I said.
"Oh really? Was he rich?" she said.
"Ummm... yeah." I said.
"Oh, he definitely dodged a bullet then!" she said.
"I'm not sure why you keep watching these trash videos!" I said, "You should be focusing on good content! And I'm not sure why you're so excited about it!"
These kids!
They would be excited about any stupid content!
Like, she was going for the rich men... What was fucking so exciting about it!
"No, it's fun!" she said, "It's kind of interactive. This girl... She asks questions like, what would be the origin of her issue. It's so fun to guess! To be honest, I think her issues started after her first marriage. Her first husband was abusive, and..."
"No, I think it all started after that, when she was going through her divorce... When she met this guy that she loved after years..." Renesmee said, "She really loved him, but his family didn't like her just because she was poor! Then she met him after years and he kept talking about his wife and daughters in front of her during that party, so that kind of made her bitter and upset! She thought about how unlucky she is! And then he kept rejecting her when they went to her room. And when he didn't give in and passed out, that's when something changed inside her. She came up with this idea of telling him that they had sex, so that..."
"But her idea was stupid!" Carlie said, "I don't know how framing him with the sex that didn't happen was going to help her... Like, if that guy loved his wife and not her, he was obviously not going to leave his family for her?"
"No, she thought..."
Wait... what?
Was this about...?
This couldn't be...
But... 'his family didn't like her just because she was poor!'? That was... Esme?
'He kept talking about his wife and daughters'? Well, that was so... Edward!
But what did she mean by... 'framing him with the sex that didn't happen'?
What the fuck did that mean?
And he said...
"What is her TikTok id?" I said.
"See! You also found it interesting, right?" she said.
"Yeah, give it to me as well." Alice said, "This sounds really interesting!"
