Chapter 2 The Fight

Seeing that the conversation between Yoyo and Samantha started to heat up, Chappell got a little anxious. Although he had never seen Yoyo get angry before, he knew that she was no pushover. So to avoid aggravating the situation, he looked at Samantha, hinting her to stop talking.

But Samantha's mind had already been muddled by Yoyo's words. She ignored the hint from Chappell and gave Yoyo a provocative look.

"You know what? This is my first time to see an arrogant mistress," Yoyo said and laughed. "Do you want me to hang a banner for you to congratulate you for successfully seducing my boyfriend? That way, you don't need to rack your brains in finding ways to become famous. But on second thoughts, even if you become a famous prostitute in A City, you can't be glorious because you're old. Do you know that?"

Samantha got more furious with Yoyo's sharp tongue. She gritted her teeth and rushed up to Yoyo. "What the fuck are you talking about? You are the famous prostitute in A City, not me. In fact, all women in your family are famous prostitutes."

"Ha-ha! Really. I actually didn't know that. But you know what? I really admire you for being such a coquettish bitch," Yoyo said with scornful laughter.

"Yoyo..." Chappell spoke in a low voice. "That's enough. Don't go too far. You are already attracting many people's attention."

Yoyo turned and glared at him.

Although he looked so disgusted and his eyes were filled with dissatisfaction, he didn't dare to meet her gaze.

Thinking that Chappell was siding on her, a triumphant smile appeared on Samantha's face. She was satisfied to win this round.

But since Yoyo had been glaring at him for a long time, he couldn't take it anymore. He raised his head and asked, "Why are you looking at me?"

"I'm just trying to figure out why I fell in love with you back then," Yoyo replied straightforwardly. Her heart was still bleeding. "Shame on you! You don't have any talent. You're just like a dog that wags its tail when a woman waves her hand at you. Well, you two are indeed a good match."

"And what do you mean by that?" Samantha asked, squinting her eyes at Yoyo. "You may be good-looking and young. But as soon as you get home later, I advise you to look at yourself in the mirror. You will then know the reason why your beautiful face can't even keep a man. You're only wasting your time talking glibly here."

"Well, I don't need to look at myself in the mirror to know the reason. Actually, there are many possible reasons," Yoyo countered. The smile on her face gradually disappeared upon hearing such heartbreaking words. She felt like her blood boiled up again. Her voice became a little sharp when she continued, "First, because I have always been a submissive girlfriend. Second, I am so kind that I can be bullied easily. And third, there are coquettish bitches like you in this world who are skillful in seducing men."

"Yoyo!" Chappell called out.

Without even looking at him, Yoyo raised her hand.

Pak!

The whole world seemed to have quieted down.

Chappell held his left face and looked at Yoyo in disbelief. At this moment, he felt like he was in front of a stranger. After being slapped by her, he realized that he could no longer bully her.

"Listen to me carefully, Chappell." Yoyo pounded his chest. "Before calling my name again, think twice about your identity first. Don't you dare interfere when I speak! If you say even a single word again, I will let you taste the world's cruelty. I am capable of doing more than that slap."

Chappell trembled with her words.

"How dare you hit him!" Samantha roared and rushed towards Yoyo angrily.

"Why can't she?" A voice was heard from behind. It sounded so magnetic, with a woman's special charm.

Yoyo felt relieved. She didn't need to turn around to know who she was.

Right now, she was so angry that she only wanted to show how ferocious she was in front of Chappell and Samantha. She would never let them bully her again. But she was also aware that she couldn't easily win against the two of them. Now that Sheryl Bai was here, she was at an advantage.

Chappell couldn't help trembling with fear when he heard Sheryl Bai's voice. He pulled Samantha away from Yoyo and whispered, "Stop it. Let's go."

"What are you doing?" Samantha struggled from his grip. However, he dragged her away and walked out of the hotel hurriedly.

It was only then that Yoyo turned around and smiled at Sheryl Bai, who was walking towards her.

She was wearing a T-shirt and faded jeans. As a taekwondo master, Sheryl Bai was a bit careless. But she was very protective of Yoyo. In the past, when Yoyo had a fight with Chappell, she rushed to his office and almost fought with him. Since then, Chappell had been scared of her. He even felt uncomfortable just hearing her name.

"And you can still manage to smile?" Sheryl Bai asked with a frown. She looked at the direction where Chappell and Samantha had left. "I didn't expect that Chappell is a dissolute rogue."

Yoyo pursed her lips. This time her arrogance and defensiveness had already vanished. She lowered her eyes and heaved a deep sigh.

She suddenly felt exhausted with so many things that happened today.

All of a sudden, a group of security guards gathered in the lobby of the hotel. They each grabbed a walkie-talkie and rushed to the front desk.

Sheryl Bai looked at the receptionist with a frown.

"What happened?" shouted someone.

The security guards were whispering to each other at the front desk. They all had serious looks on their faces.

"What are you all doing here? You are all useless! If you don't give me an explanation today, I will sue you!" a tall woman screamed hysterically. She had a pretty face, but her expression was very ferocious.

Sheryl Bai covered her head with her hands and said in a low voice, "Oh no!"

Yoyo turned to look at her with confusion.

Sheryl Bai understood the look on Yoyo's face, so she nodded slightly and explained, "Something must have happened. That woman is Phoebe Le. She is an Internet celebrity, and she's one of the regular guests here. I am on duty today, but I am slacking off a bit now. Something must have happened on the fourth floor. I'll go and have a look first."

"Are you deaf?" Phoebe Le screamed again as she walked towards the front desk, gasping for breath. "Someone broke into the room, and no one noticed it. Are you all dead here? Or maybe you also have something to do with it." This time, Sheryl Bai walked towards Phoebe Le and apologized, "Miss Le, I'm on duty today. I'm sorry. I got so hungry, I went out to buy some food."

Feeling that something was wrong, Yoyo followed her.

The whole hotel was in an uproar. It seemed that this matter was something big and serious. And Phoebe Le mentioned the fourth floor. She was there a while ago. Did it have anything to do with that man?

Thinking about it, Yoyo froze. She felt like a bucket of ice-cold water was poured all over her.

Phoebe Le gritted her teeth and stared at Sheryl Bai's face for a long time. She then said, "Are you a staff member of the hotel? Why are you not in your uniform? Where is your badge?"

She looked at Sheryl Bai up and down as if scrutinizing her.

Sheryl Bai smiled and said, "I'm sorry. I didn't wear my badge because I had something to deal with outside. May I know what happened, Miss Le?"

"You're not wearing your badge, and you went out to deal with something else outside while on duty?" Phoebe Le's shrill voice made everyone's eardrums tingle. "I want to speak to your manager!"

"Miss Le, I know I'm wrong. Please accept my apology. And can you tell me what happened first? I won't be able to help you if I don't know the whole story."

"Of course, you don't know because you're not there!" Phoebe Le snapped as she pointed at Sheryl Bai's face with eyes wide opened. She was like a beast, ready to swallow her prey alive. "I chose your hotel because I thought that it was safe here. But I didn't expect that people here are all blind. With so many security guards around, how could someone enter my room unnoticed? Do you know how much I've lost? You can't surely afford to pay for it."

Sheryl Bai clenched her fists after hearing what Phoebe Le said. All her life, she had never been humiliated like this. And she was even scolded for no reason.

"What exactly did you lose? I hope you don't mind telling us, Miss Le," Yoyo intervened.

Sheryl Bai was an employee here, so she had to apologize. Yoyo saw the disdain in Phoebe's eyes. If Sheryl Bai's patience ran out, the situation might get worse.

"And who the hell are you?" Phoebe Le yelled at Yoyo.

"I am her friend," Yoyo answered.

"Oh, I see. So, are you here to defend your friend?" Phoebe Le sneered. "And you want to know what I lost? It's something that people like you can never afford to pay. Someone entered my room and slept with my man. Can you afford to pay for that?"

Yoyo's face suddenly turned pale as she took a few steps back.

Sheryl Bai noticed the change in Yoyo's expression, so she held her waist and asked what was going on.

Yoyo shook her head. But beads of sweat had started to drip from her forehead.

'Oh, my God! I'm in big trouble, ' she thought inwardly. For someone as beautiful and famous as Phoebe Le to fall in love with him, he must really be a man with high status. But Yoyo was also sure that he was high in drugs. If Phoebe Le checked the CCTV footage in the hallway, she would recognize Yoyo. She might even think that Yoyo was the one who drugged him.

Phoebe Le was not done yet. "Poor people are really useless. You can't even do your job well. Guarding the door of a hotel room is very simple, but you can't even do it. Is there anything else you can do?" she said in ridicule. She then turned to the security guards who were staring at her. "Why are you still standing there? Call your manager now and show me the CCTV footage. I want to see the woman who dares to steal my man."

"You don't need to see the footage," Yoyo said abruptly and looked at Phoebe Le.

Phoebe Le was stunned for a moment. Anger surged from her heart as she stared at Yoyo. "If you don't want to be in trouble, you'd better get out of here as soon as possible. Get out of my sight! You are not allowed to stay here. I don't want to see your face ever again!"

"It's me," Yoyo said, trying to suppress the anger in her throat.

Everyone was stunned. The lobby became so quiet that anyone could even hear a pin drop.

Sheryl Bai was the first one to recover from the shock. She turned her head and looked at Yoyo in disbelief.

But she didn't know what to say, so she just stared at Yoyo for a long time. What happened? Did she really hear it right?

"Are you crazy?" Phoebe Le asked. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"I said it was me. You don't need to look for that woman anymore," Yoyo said firmly. She took two steps forward, but Sheryl Bai grabbed her hand and pulled her back. However, she still looked at Phoebe Le and said, "I am the woman who slept with the man. And for your information, I am also one of those poor people that you consider useless. So, what can you do now?"

"Yoyo?" This time, even Sheryl Bai was utterly shocked.
