Chapter 27 A Reunion at the Steakhouse
“Miss, welcome! Would you like to order now? We also have private rooms upstairs if you’d like a quieter space”
Yvonne waved 1.im away. “We’re just sitting here for a bit.”
After sending the waiter off, the three of them sat at a nearby table.
“Who is she?”
“You seem really scared of her!”
“Elsa, are we even your real friends?”
“No matter who she is, we’ve got your back.”
Facing her friends‘ concerned questions, Elsa just shook her head and lowered it, biting her lip in fear.
“Please don’t ask… If she sees me, I… I…”
She stammered but couldn’t force the words out.
The rest, her friends could only guess.
Yvonne’s eyes lit up suddenly.
“Wait
—
is she that adopted daughter who just came back?”
“Holy sh*t, Elsa, you’re way too kind! She’s just an adopted girl and she dares to bully you?”
Anna glared in disgust at the figure near the window, already furious on Elsa’s behalf.
“No wonder your face changed the second you saw her. You’ve lost so much weight lately it’s because of her!”

“Elsa, you’re too gentle. This is your home, your parents. Why are you afraid of her? Is she bullying you at home too?”
“Look, don’t be scared. If you’re wronged, we’ll help you fight back. Who does she think she is, stepping all over the real young lady of the house? Hmph.”
Yvonne slammed her hand angrily on the table, glaring at Windy with fierce eyes.
“The three of us against one? Don’t worry. Worst case, we’ll pull her hair out. No way we’re letting her think Elsa is someone she can push around.”
Anna quickly chimed in, her dislike for Windy growing by the second.
“Come on, let’s go meet her.”
The two girls pulled Elsa along toward Windy’s table.
Meanwhile, Windy’s steak had just been served, still sizzling and fragrant. She hadn’t eaten this in over ten years missed this taste.

she had
She remembered the first time she ever had steak.
Back then, Quinn and Elsa had sat right across from her. She had clumsily copied their movements, holding a fork in one hand and a knife in the other, carefully slicing the steak into small pieces.
Quinn had smiled and praised her, “Look at that you’re a quick learner.”
The moment Elsa heard that, she dropped her fork, claiming she felt nauseous just looking at the beef.
Quinn, worried about Elsa’s pale face, had rushed to take her to the hospital.
