172 Chapter 172: What Was Going On? (1/2)
Walking away from the director, Khloe stomped over to Kylie and slapped her across the face. ”Everyone hates me now,” she growled, ”and it is your entire fault. You've made me look like a fool!”
Since Kylie was not one to take being slapped lightly, she threw her fist into Khloe's solar plexus. As Khloe doubled over and fell on the ground, trying to catch her breath, Kylie spat on her and said, ”You can't put this on me. It was you who abandoned your team. I had nothing to do with your decision. It is funny, though; you went to all that trouble to conceal your messed up face, but now it is all that anyone is talking about!”
”What are you talking about?” Khloe gasped.
Kylie looked down at her and laughed. ”The staff at Mac took a before and after picture of your face and they described how you came in bragging about how famous you are but, in the end, after they did their best to make you look your best, you didn't even tip them, let alone buy something. #KhloeCheapBitch is trending like nothing I have ever seen in my life. Isn't it Ironic?”
”I was just sampling their products,” Khloe cried. ”What is the big deal? Why is everybody turning on me all of a sudden?”
Kylie shrugged indifferently. ”Why should I care?” she laughed. ”You have never been kind to me, or to anyone else for that matter. Have you ever heard of Karma?”
”The product that you use now,” Kylie continued, ”the company that makes it is probably going to sue. You have a contract that says you will only use their products. It seems to me that you have breached the terms of the contract, and they will find out. As I said, #KhloeCheapBitch is trending in a major way!”
Kylie offered her sister a hand up and said, ”Don't be so glum. This is not the end of the world and, if you choose to do so, you can begin to make it up to people tomorrow.”
Khloe smiled, and for a moment, she forgot how much she hated Kylie, and she hugged her.
Khloe found her father in the hall on the first floor. He was talking with David Ham. Neither of them looked particularly happy. Seeing her, they walked towards her. ”You look like shit,” David said, ”but I suppose it is only appropriate. I can't believe you left the set to get a makeover. What were you thinking? We've put our necks on the line for you, and this is how you repay us?”
”I couldn't help myself,” Khloe cried. ”I just could handle the idea of anyone seeing me the way that I looked. I looked like some monster from a horror movie whose face is melting…”
David furrowed his brows and looked at Laurence. If she was at fault, so was Laurence. He was the one who had raised her in the way that she should go. Apparently, he hadn't done a very good job…
