200 Chapter 200: The Truth Will Come Out Eventually (1/2)

Someone knocked on her door, so she put her phone away and said, ”Come in.”

Kylie frowned when she saw that it was Khloe. She had a plant in her hands. ”You must be illiterate,” Kylie said. ”The plaque on my door is clear. You are not welcome here!”

Khloe's face turned red, but she pressed on. She walked into the room, placed the plant on a table, and said, ”I have brought you a little housewarming present. I mean no harm. Furthermore, I am tired of all this bickering. I would like to put it behind us. Obviously, we will never be bosom buddies, but I would like to foster a mutually beneficial working relationship.”

Kylie sighed and said, ”I am agreeable to your suggestion. Don't take this the wrong way, though, but I am exhausted, and I am going to have to ask you to leave…”

After humbling herself before Kylie, Khloe could not believe that she was being dismissed so soon. She glared at Kylie, picked up the plant, and smashed it on the floor. ”You obviously aren't taking me seriously,” she snapped, ”so I retract my peace proposal. If you think you are going to be successful, you will be greatly disappointed. The only advice I can give you now is this: go kill yourself!

”If you insist on there being a rivalry between up,” Khloe continued, ”so be it. I could have helped you, but now I will just sit on the sidelines and watch you self-destruct. By this time, next year, I will be your boss, and you will be nothing. You will be a pariah. Even Aiden won't want you.”

Kylie was just about to reply when Laurence appeared in the doorway. He looked at Khloe and said, ”What the fuck are you doing here?”

”I came to apologize,” Khloe replied, ”but she scolded me and smashed the plant I gave her. If you don't believe me, you can ask my assistant… She saw it all!”

Laurence turned to Kylie and asked if that was true. Kylie just shrugged and said, ”It isn't, but I don't care if you believe me or not. Your opinion means nothing to me.”

Laurence's face turned red with anger, and he moved towards Kylie with the intention to hurt her. Before he got more than two steps forward, though, he tripped on the pot and fell to the ground. Watching this unfold, Kylie couldn't help but laugh. She enjoyed watching giants fall. Khloe, on the other hand, hunkered down in fear. ”Daddy,” she cried, ”Are you alright?”

Khloe looked at Kylie and said, ”This is entirely your fault!”

Kylie shrugged and said, ”You were the one who smashed the pot. Take responsibility for your actions.” She turned to Khloe's assistant and said, ”Make yourself useful. Call an ambulance.”

The assistant nodded and pulled her phone out of her pocket.

Kylie looked at Khloe again and said, ”He is bleeding much worse than I'd first realized. It looks severe. He must have cut himself on a piece of the broken pot. I shouldn't have laughed. I know First Aid and C.P.R., though. If you move aside, I will save his life.”
