Your Love Is But a Dream (Clara and Wren) novel Chapter 123

Angie didn't hear the mocking laughter at first. She looked up and saw Ivy standing there with a sour expression. Just as she was about to call out to Ivy, she heard the laughter of ridicule coming from the next booth.

Angie froze for a moment before she walked over to Ivy to listen carefully.

Meanwhile, Penny, Wendy Simpson, and the other woman didn't notice anything unusual. They were still chatting excitedly, and Ivy and Angie heard everything they said.

Angie had a quick temper and wasn't as patient as Ivy had thought. When she heard them shamelessly continue to humiliate Ivy, she stormed over to the other booth.

"Penny Cooper! Did you forget to brush your teeth before leaving the house today? Your breath stinks! Is this the kind of upbringing you people in high society have? How shameless can you be to talk behind someone's back like that!" Angie hollered.

Penny and her companions were startled by the sudden interruption, and their faces showed their displeasure. But when they saw Ivy standing behind Angie, their expressions turned slightly awkward.

The awkwardness lasted only for a split second. Penny quickly crossed her arms and leaned back into her chair. She sneered. "Are you Ivy's lapdog, Angie? You're so protective of her."

"What did you just say? I dare you to say it again!" Angie's face turned red as she glared at Penny in fury.

Ivy understood that Angie was only trying to stand up for her. Although she wasn't thrilled with Angie's impulsive actions, she knew that if she stayed silent and ignorant now, it would only create a rift between them.
