I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 172 - Meeting A Rival

All the way to her apartment, Anne was silent as she remembered what Linda said earlier, when she told Linda the dilemma of choosing one of the two men who approached her.

"You can't be like that, Anne, they have limits of patience and heart. And you, as the one who happens to like them both, can't make them suffer like this. Choose one and reject the other gently so he won't hold a grudge. You don't want to be in their position, so you better be firm with your heart. Decide the one you will choose and makes you comfortable, don't make them suffer because they have to wait for an answer from you. Trust me, Anne, waiting for an answer from someone who you like is the most torturous thing."

Linda's words replayed in Anne's memory. Although Linda was playful and rarely talked seriously, but her words had really pierced Anne's heart now.

Because Anne was still restless, she then turned her car towards a mall in front of her. Anne intended to take a short walk to reduce her anxiety a little.

"Yes, shopping is the most effective medicine to relieve women's stress," said Anne quietly as she got out of the car that she had successfully parked in the women's parking area.

When she stepped into the mall, Anne smiled when she saw the situation in the mall which was full of girls her age who were passing by looking for their own needs. A row of shops selling branded clothes and goods was holding a big discount so that it triggered the women who came to the mall. Actually, Anne could afford to buy expensive things like that because she had savings and deposits with interest that was increasing every month. But Anne always thought that she didn't need expensive things like that to be stylish. For her, as long as her clothes and bags and other things could still be used, Anne wouldn't buy more, and this was one of the reasons why Anne's collection of expensive items were not too much.

Even though she changed her clothes every day at school, Anne would definitely use them again for the following week. Even though she had to mix and match them with other clothes. For example, this week she would wear a pink blouse and jeans, then next week she would wear the jeans and an oversized t-shirt. And so were her other clothes, so that she didn't look like she was always wearing the same clothes. Anne also shared this knowledge with Linda, so that Linda was not too wasteful to spend her salary to buy clothes to wear for college until now. Linda even had savings left over from the salary she got from Anne's flower shop where she worked. Even though when she worked at the restaurant, Linda always ran out of money and didn't have any savings. That was because she adhered to the life style of rich girls who didn't want to wear the same clothes for two months to college. But after Anne gave her advice, finally Linda now had savings as a results from refraining herself to go shopping.

Slap!

"You cheap woman! How dare you tease my husband? Are you not selling well enough that you have to seduce someone's husband, who already has four children huh?!"

Thump!

Anne's steps stopped when she heard a loud scream from a woman who was angry. Judging from her words, it seemed that the woman was angry with another woman. Out of curiosity, Anne finally found out and was surprised when she saw a crowd not far from where she was now.

"You know my husband is the father of four children? But why are you teasing him? Don't you have any pride and seduce someone's husband and take advantage of him? Have you ever thought that the money you are enjoying now is the right of my children who are still young? How would you feel if you were in my current position, staying at home holding back the money that your husband gave you for your own needs so that the children can eat and have their needs met, while you innocently take my husband shopping to buy expensive things like this? Aren't you a woman? Why don't have any compassion to fellow women who are suffering because of your actions huh?!!"

Anne saw a graceful woman was cursing a young girl who was currently sitting on the floor with expensive items scattered around her, while the husband of the woman who was angry was trying to restrain his wife from getting angry again.

"Why, Abram? Are you ashamed that I scolded your mistress in public like this huh? Are you embarrassed that finally everyone finds out that you are cheating on a woman who is much younger than you? If you are embarrassed, you should have thought twice before doing all this!! We have been married for more than fifteen years, Abram, and you have the heart to betray me, who has dedicated my life to you!!! Where is your conscience, Abram? I am always there when you are in trouble, I am beside you when you are broken, I am always trying to give you ideas for the advancement of the company you work for, but why when you're already at the top, you enjoy everything with amother woman, Abram? Is my service so far not enough for you?" the elegant woman rebuked her husband named Abram.

The husband, Abram, just kept silent when his wife talked at length. He was still trying to get his wife to leave the mall and to deal with the matter at home. Although his wife was still trying to take out all her annoyance at the seductive woman who had taken a lot of advantage from her husband, but because their two young children were crying, the woman finally willing to be taken home by her husband, leaving the seductive woman who was now a spectacle of many people.

After the husband and wife left, the crowd of people began to disperse after being asked to leave by a mall security who had come, while the young woman who was the source of trouble for the departed husband and wife was still sitting on the floor with wet clothes after being doused by the wife of the man she seduced. Some of the visitors were still swearing at her for being a third wheel in the couple's household.

Seeing an unexpected event like that made Anne speechless. She didn't expect that there were still many heartless women like Steffi out there. Feeling uncomfortable, Anne finally decided to leave the place. She didn't want to be in the same place with a seductive woman because it would have a bad influence on her. But after only taking two steps, Anne suddenly stopped when she heard the conversation of two women who seemed to be giving support to the seductive woman who was still sitting on the floor. She reflexively looked back and was surprised to hear what the two beautiful women said in front of her.

"So, Miss, if you want to be a temptress, don't be half-hearted like this, if you intend to spend the wealth of the man who is your prey, don't hesitate. Raise all his wealth by taking him on vacation abroad or buying a luxury car and house for you, don't just ask for cheap stuff like this," said a beautiful girl who was kneeling next to the seductive woman who was tearing up with embarrassment in public.

"H-how can a woman like you say something like that?" said Anne unconsciously responding to the words of a beautiful girl who had previously spoken.

The two girls who were squatting below then turned quickly to Anne, who was standing not far from them. The two beautiful girls slowly walked towards Anne.

"Give her a short lesson, Sis," whispered one of the beautiful girls in a voice that Anne could still hear.

"Calm down, Kim, don't call me Marissa Henderson if I can't teach this self-righteous girl a lesson," replied her sister who turned out to be Marissa Henderson, the woman who was targeting Jack as her big prey.
