Me Before You

Chapter 13

Emelia Cruise was indulged in her thoughts, Anna stark who studied so well, always got high marks and who was also the girlfriend of John Peter was actually a poor girl who worked at a restaurant as a waitress.

She realized that Anna Stark was not as brilliant as she thought!

At that time, Claire Ashley, who had not been silent during the whole scene looked at Emelia Cruise and said, "I heard that Anna’s family didn’t allow her to go to university. They want her to get married."

"Get married" Anna was Emelia Cruise’s school mate. When she heard the word "marriage", she was shocked.

"Isn't Anna Stark about our age? How can she get married?" She didn't understand.

"What's the problem? It's not bad to get married earlier." Claire said with a smile, "I heard some companies were hiring people. They are finding married and pregnant people. If now she got married, in some time she will have kids and when we will graduate, her children might be playing on grounds. It will be easy for her to go out and find a job!"

Claire Ashley's words were actually a taunt for Anna Stark, but Emelia Cruise thought she was praising Anna Stark.

"It's too miserable, isn't it? An 18 years old girl has to become a married woman and give birth to children. She has to manage a household at such a young age. I never like or want such a lifestyle for my own self."

Claire Ashley looked at her and said with a smile, "Emelia Cruise, you are different. You are only 18 years old and already become a popular celebrity on the Internet. Your future must be very bright. Why are you comparing Anna Stark with you?"

"Claire, am I really so good?" Emelia Cruise blushed and took out the mirror to make up carefully.

Obviously, in her heart, she agreed with Claire Ashley's words.

Emelia Cruise looked in the mirror, and asked, "Claire, aren't you and Emelia Cruise were good friends? Why does she behave like this with you? "

As Claire heard Emelia Cruise’s question she lowered her head and on her face, some sad expressions appeared.

"What's the matter, Claire?" Emelia Cruise looked at her sad face and asked.

Claire Ashley raised her head and smiled lightly, "Nothing, I already had a quarrel with Emelia Cruise."

"Ah, why?" Emelia asked with concern.

"Well, I always considered Anna Stark as my best friend and I didn't expect her to spread rumours about me behind my back." Claire Ashley smartly lied.

"Oh my god! Anna Stark is such kind of a girl?" Anna Stark looked honest, not like someone who can do such things.

Claire sighed, "You don’t know her. I also didn't know her before. In fact, she also secretly says bad things about you behind your back."

"What?" Emelia Cruise was shocked. "What did she say about me?"

Claire Ashley looked at Emelia Cruise's face. She pretended a sad face and continued, "she talked about your plastic surgery. She says you used to be very ugly, but now it's only through plastic surgeries that you managed to look beautiful..."

Emelia Cruise had been listening to such kind of taunts during the start of her career. She was the only one who knew that she had no plastic surgery, no injection and no financial support. She has achieved her popularity through her own hard work and efforts. That’s why when she came to know that Anna Stark was talking about her like this on her back, she got angry.

"How could she say that about me?" Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Claire Ashley comforted her and said, "Emelia Cruise, we all know that your beauty is natural not because of any plastic surgery. It's Anna Stark who is jealous because you look better than her, so she said that on purpose. You don't know her, she always says bad things about many girls behind their back! "

Emelia Cruise clenched her fist and scolded, "Anna Stark is a bitch!"

"She is more than that," Claire said with a face of grievance. "In fact, John Peter liked me at the beginning. But Anna Stark snatched him from me. If she didn’t come in between us, we might be together. How can I continue my friendship with such a person?"

Her words were completely false, but felt pitiful.

Emelia Cruise felt sad for Claire and got angry on Anna, "I had no idea that Anna Stark is such kind of a person. It's terrible, Claire. You should stay away from her."
