Chapter 4The Crab Feast Betrayal

I ate a few mouthfuls boringly, went back to the room.

Behind came my mom's scolding of hating iron not becoming steel, and Zoe's不动声色 adding fuel to the fire.

Peter brought a plate of strawberries in.

I ignored him.

"Jenna, are you still blaming Zoe? Not saying a word to her today, going back will think wildly again."

If it were before, I would definitely shout loudly:

Shouldn't I blame?

She changed my application without authorization, snatched my boyfriend, my mom even didn't allow me to call police, even couldn't get angry at her.

When suffered stray bullet attack in Syria, almost died.

I just figured it out.

People who don't care about you, no matter what you say, what they receive is air.

I kept silent.

Peter thought I was angering him, explained non-stop:

"I always knew, Ms. Yan hated New York very much, you wanted to apply for NYU back then, was to escape her."

"Zoe didn't want you mother and daughter to break up, so accidentally remembered your password, helped you change it."

Yeah!

Her good intention, changed my original economics major in NYU to journalism major in unpopular university, two thousand kilometers away from home.

Peter was still chatter:

"Jenna, even if I was admitted to NYU with you back then, would also advise you to change application."

I really got annoyed listening, casually said a sentence:

"You intentionally tested poorly, was to stay to accompany Zoe?"

His voice stopped abruptly, like wild duck stuck by neck.

He didn't know how I knew.

Because he never saw clearly, Zoe who looked strong and innocent on surface, simply not the little white rabbit he knew.

After finishing university, Zoe didn't need my mom's sponsorship anymore, sent a lot of messages provoking me.

Such as high school, how Peter crossed sea under camouflage, behind my back took her to amusement park, cinema, and the marine park I longed for.

University time, Peter who got driver's license, used weekends to take her to surrounding tours.

If encountered me calling to check post, would also use hotel curtains to lie.
