Please Come Back, Honey!

Chapter 20

Chapter 20 Emma felt like ignoring Arianna, so she simply focused on having a taste of the coffee that she had made for her and Susanna. However, even though Emma was trying to steer away from trouble, Arianna clearly didn’t think the same. When Arianna saw how Emma had completely ignored her, she placed her arms on her waist while storming over to stand in front of Emma and Susanna’s table. “Hey! Did you turn deaf after going abroad for one year?” Arianna was used to speaking as if she were a level above Emma, and she was used to addressing Emma in a rude tone. She had completely forgotten how Emma wasn’t related to her at all after Emma’s divorce. In other words, Emma was no longer obligated to tolerate Arianna’s terrible temper. Emma sat firmly in her spot as she looked up and gazed at Arianna. “I do think I’ve changed, but it seems like you haven’t changed at all, Miss Bateson.” Emma shot a glare at Arianna’s arrogant face as she enunciated clearly, “You’re still as despicable as always.” “You—” Arianna was used to Emma being quiet and patient around her, so she would’ve never expected Emma to attack and offend her in such a manner. Furthermore, Emma had done it in front of all the people at the filming location. In short, Emma had completely embarrassed her! Arianna’s face was twisted with fury, and she raised her hand to grab the cup of coffee and splash it in Emma’s face. If it were someone other than Emma who had offended her, Arianna might not have lost control of herself. However, Arianna was too used to bullying Emma, so she couldn’t bring herself to accept the sudden change in Emma’s demeanor. This made Arianna especially furious. No one expected Arianna to lose her temper and splash coffee at someone else over such a small matter, so everyone froze in their spots for a short while. Emma instinctively dodged away from the coffee, so only some of the coffee splashed on her fair arm. She managed to dodge most of it. It was summertime, so Emma was dressed in a simple, short-sleeved white t-shirt. Her fair arm immediately turned red as the hot coffee had burned her skin. Susanna was the first to lose her cool. She hastily stood up and handed Emma some tissues before she pointed her finger inProperty belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Arianna’s direction. “Do you have a f*cking death wish?!” she cursed. Susanna used to be one of the rebellious girls when she was in high school, but she changed for the better after she began acting. Right then, the rough and rebellious side of her seemed to have awakened in response to Arianna’s horrible behavior. Susanna had rolled her sleeves up and was about to give Arianna a tight slap across the face when Emma reached her arm out to stop her. Even though Emma was the one who had been stained with coffee, she felt calmer than everyone else there. She didn’t want Susanna to act out in front of such a huge crowd, especially since her friend was a famous celebrity. If anyone took a video of Susanna hitting someone, she was definitely going to suffer the consequences of her actions. “It’s fine, Susanna.” Emma tried to calm the other woman down. Susanna felt like her insides were about to burst from all the rage she felt. “How can you say that it’s alright after she poured coffee all over you?!” Susanna shouted at the top of her lungs. “It’s alright.” Emma smiled at Susanna. “Because… I’m about to pour it back at her.” Once she finished her sentence, Emma lifted her cup of coffee and flung her arm out to splash the coffee all over Arianna. Emma was a little meaner than Arianna—she had sent all of the hot coffee directly toward Arianna’s face. Arianna instantly let out a blood-curdling scream. Emma’s cup of coffee wasn’t as hot, so it wouldn’t burn Arianna’s skin. However, it was good enough to shame Arianna in front of everyone else. Embarrassing Arianna in public was one of the best ways to attack her. The woman loved nothing more than her face, after all. She had always been proud of herself. “Emma Yates, you b*tch! How dare you pour coffee in my face! I’m going to kill you!” Arianna’s loud screams filled the whole filming set, and she marched toward Emma while wiping the coffee stains off of her face. “What’s going on here?” Right then, a man’s harsh and stern voice came from behind them. It seemed that Trevor, Eleanor, and the director of the series had made their way over to them.
