Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 603

As George tried to pester Winnie and Yolanda, he suddenly clutched at his neck with a pale face. When he looked at his hand, he found the back of his hand covered in red hives.

"What the hell is this?!" His entire body began itching unbearably, so he scratched his skin hard. When he rolled up his sleeves, he found his wrists covered in a dense rash of red welts too.

"Ahh!" Two passing women screamed when they saw George's face. The rash had spread there too. The sight of it alarmed the nearby guests.

Their screams drew more attention. Everyone who saw George recoiled in shock.

"What's going on?" Julie rushed over at the commotion. She was startled by George's appearance too.

"This must be an allergic reaction. He needs to get to a hospital!" someone called from the crowd. "Allergies can be serious. Someone call an ambulance!"

George couldn't even speak. He just stood there while frantically scratching his skin. He broke open the hives, which released a nauseating odor.

"God, that smell!"

"Is it infected?"

"That's disgusting..."

The guests pointed at George and gossiped while keeping their distance. They were afraid the reaction might be contagious.

Seeing the pain George was in, Yolanda took advantage of the chaos and pulled Winnie through the crowd and out of the hotel. Julie was too preoccupied to notice them leaving. Once outside, Winnie let out a shaky breath.

She hated the fake socializing and especially hated being sized up like an object by men.

"You should keep your distance from Julie." Yolanda usually would not badmouth someone behind their back. But she felt she needed to warn Winnie about Julie's obvious ill intentions.

"Well, she's actually not that bad..." Winnie was still reluctant to think badly of Julie despite being angry. "She probably meant well at first. She just didn't consider how I'd feel about it."

Winnie always tried to see the good in people, which was an admirable trait that unfortunately made her vulnerable in today's society.

Knowing Winnie wouldn't cut ties with Julie even if she told her to, Yolanda offered instead, "You can ask me to come with you the next time you can't get out of one of these gatherings."

"Thanks, Yolanda!"
