Chapter 85: When the Plan Backfires

Rachel had finally gotten enough of everyone pushing her around, making her a fool because she wanted to keep a friend. She betrayed Tricia and Isabella and decided to go for Lily, only for it to turn out that Lily was even much worse than everyone else and even more annoying. 

As she stood under the drenching rain and watched as James's car rode past her, she could not help but hiss loudly. Then, luckily for her, an actual taxi stopped, and she got in. As she paid and told the driver her address, she sat there and went through the videos that she sent to Lily and couldn't help but feel like a traitor. 

Yes, she was trying to prove to Isabella and Tricia that she had changed, not knowing that she was still even making another video. She couldn't help but slap her forehead continuously as she felt frustrated. “I can't even believe I turned out to be someone like this. I was never like this. All I thought was that Isabella was actually doing something wrong, and I wanted to help her. I wanted to at least show her that she was doing the wrong thing. But now it seems as if everything has gotten much worse than it was supposed to be. And that was what even pissed me off more,” Rachel said to herself as she now realized that she had always been the foolish one. 

She was the one who thought that Isabella was going astray and needed to be put back on track by getting involved with Lily, only to see that Lily was just playing a trick and was even much worse. Even though at first, Lily made it seem as though she was campaigning for women and did not want anyone to be molested by professors, now she was seeing that Lily instead wanted every professor for herself. 

As Rachel put one and one together, she felt even more frustrated as she scoffed. “I can never believe I was this foolish. I was this dumb. And Lily knew that I was this dumb and still continued to do it like it never mattered.” 

Rachel felt so frustrated as she yelled, “Oh my God! I have to get everything back on track. I have to make them know that I always cared for them. Isabella has to know that I never wanted to be this way. I never wanted to act this way. I had always cared for her. I did not know what got over me.” Rachel said as she began to type her text message to Isabella, ready to pour her heart out and explain everything that happened. 

Meanwhile, Lily was still furious as she drove her car through the rainy storm and raced towards Beatrice, the nurse who sold the drugs to them, telling them that it would work effectively, only for Isabella's mind to still be perfectly alright. They got there in no time and did not even bother to use her umbrella as she opened the door, slammed it, and just at that moment, Beatrice knew she was angry. 

She also rushed out and followed behind her as she stormed toward the woman's building, not caring about the rain that was pouring on her. She knocked on the door continuously, banging on it with all her strength as it was opened instantly and the woman smiled at her. 

“I knew you came back for another one. That one worked perfectly, right?” she said as Lily scoffed. 

“Work perfectly, my ass! Nothing actually worked, okay? The lady is perfectly alright. Yes, she was unconscious for just 24 hours, but then she was perfectly alright again. She remembered everything. She never forgot anything. According to what you told us, she's perfectly alright now being discharged today. She's actually being discharged right now. That's to show you that whatever you sold to me never worked,” Lily said to her angrily as the nurse looked surprised.

“That can never be possible! My drugs have never gone wrong before. Whatever I sell to you always works. I am always legit. So you can't be telling me that whatever I gave you did not work. Except they are pretending; there is a lie somewhere that you are not seeing. There is something wrong, and you yourself need to find out. Because I would never sell you fake drugs. Understand that I can't collect that amount of money, and then everything did not work!” the nurse insisted as Lily instantly felt like a fool. 

“Are you trying to tell me that I don't know what I'm saying, or I am just making up words? I am telling you that it did not work! Your drugs did not work! She is okay! I saw it with my own eyes. Had it been false news, then I would have said yes, you are right. Maybe... maybe she's just pretending. Or maybe she actually did not lose her memory and is acting like she did not. She... she never lost anything. She had been alright. And now I am about to be jailed because of your mistake, despite all the money you collected from me. Yet I still have to have to be jailed. I hope you're satisfied by this because I won't let you go so easily. I am coming back to face you, and we will end this straight away. I wouldn't just watch you in your eyes and have you make me seem like an absolute fool. I would never let that happen. Do you understand?” Lily said to the nurse as she laughed.

“You really have a gut for a young lady like you. How can you just face me and spit out words just because you paid me to give you a drug that is legit? You yourself are the one acting foolish. You saw it with your eyes, or you saw it through someone who told you. Go jail yourself and find out if she did not lose her memory. If she doesn't, then you can report to my clinic or to anybody you want to. I gave you the real thing. I gave you the real deal, and you just have to find out if it really worked or not. You don't just come here without having vital evidence. Maybe they even told her what to say. You come here and yell like a fool. Young girls like you who don't even know what they want for themselves...” the nurse said to Lily.
