“Cassie, I never got to say how lovely it is to see you again. It's been years and you still look exactly the same as you did in high school.” The taunting jab Ashley had thrown my way, I suppose, was to upset me. However, this woman was far stupider than she looked if she thought that was going to work.
Ashley, with her perfectly styled blond hair and glittering gold dress, had sauntered her way towards Finn, Silas, and me after our little stare down in the room. Pollux and Carlos had been laughing and discussing god knows what when she left their side. Something I was grateful for considering what was about to unfold.
“I suppose you could say that looks are everything after all. As for you though…” I let my comment slowly slide off and linger as I glanced at her from head to toe, taking in her appearance. “It’s clear age didn’t choose to settle well with you… you know they make anti-wrinkle creams to hide that kind of stuff.”
