"Why are you criticizing Erica so badly? Isn't Erica your girlfriend?"

Kora pretended to be surprised. It seemed like Kora was speaking up for Erica's fairness, but in reality, she was subtly influencing Max to compare her even more to Erica. To make Max realize that only Kora was perfect.

"Erica was just a girlfriend by name. I never loved Erica." Max bluntly emphasized

"So why did you date Erica and even publicly declare her as your girlfriend in front of your friends?" Kora asked with a hint of jealousy.

"Didn't I do that because you wanted me to?" Max asked, pinching Kora's cheek.

"Why would it be for me?" Kora feigned innocence. "Don't speak recklessly, Max."

"Didn't you say you hated Erica? You said you would agree to date me after I helped you play a prank on Erica, didn't you?" Max reminded Kora of their past conversation.

"If you still doubt me, I'm willing to swear on anything.""No need; I trust you." Kora explained the sudden question: "I want to know why you wouldn't touch Erica. You two have been dating for two years, right?" "Someone like Erica, who would want to touch her? She's not as full and firm as you are." Max commented, squeezing Kora's chest to prove his point.

That was Erica's thinking when she made the decision. However, Erica forgot that she was alone, while the men were in a group of five.

    Erica glanced at Kora and Kora's mother for a moment before turning back and continuing to select the food she wanted to eat. Today, Erica didn't need to say anything; she just came to attend the party, eat her fill, and then leave. That's what her mother-in-law assured Erica before entering the event."Hey, I'm talking to you," Kora said angrily. "Are you deaf or mute?"Erica pretended not to hear and calmly walked over to the other side to get a piece of chocolate cake."Mom, look, Erica really doesn't care about us."

Given that Erica also had her own private social relationships, Mrs. Hani needed to respect that. However, Mrs. Hani was mistaken; they were not Erica's friends. Upon hearing what Kora and Kora's mother were saying about Erica, Mrs. Hani couldn't bear it any longer and had to step forward to intervene."Are you the one who just spoke correctly?""Yes, it's me. So what?" Kora replied with a defiant and disrespectful attitude towards the adult. Immediately, Mrs. Hani swung her hand and slapped Kora, causing her to feel a painful sting.
