Chapter 4Runway Revenge: The Curse of the Green Thorns

In my last life, I never suspected Chad. He was my college sweetheart.

When I got "sick" and ugly, he drifted away. I thought it was natural. But hearing he was engaged to Tiffany in the ICU? That was a setup. He had been cheating for a long time.

Fine. Let me give him a little push.

I texted Chad: 【Babe, I don't know what's happening. I'm gaining weight and my face is breaking out. I might have to quit modeling. What should I do?】

Usually, he replied instantly. This time, the "typing" bubble appeared and disappeared for minutes.

Finally: 【Harper, are you just tired? Don't give up so easily. Modeling pays so well!】

I pushed harder: 【If I quit, will you support me?】

Radio silence.

A moment later, Tiffany entered my room. "Harper, did you fight with Chad?"

Her tone was concerned, but she was smirking. She was impatient because I wasn't falling apart fast enough.

I frowned. "None of your business."

She giggled. "Harper, if you lost your beauty and job, would Chad still love you?"

"Oh, don't get me wrong! I just mean... a guy like Chad has plenty of options. If you don't work hard, someone might take your place."

She spun around, showing off her "new figure." I squinted. She looked like a flattened croissant.

She took my empty milk cup. "Cherish these days, Harper."
